Chapter 3- Education

The kids along with Kattapa and Bijjladeva go to the Sivagami's bedroom, where she was waiting for them. Seeing, Sivagami pacing back and forth across the room, the group got tensed. Everyone was thinking, what will happen now? Just Sivagami's eyes fall on the group.

Sivagami-(clears her throat) you all are thinking why did I call you here, right?

The kids nod.

Sivagami-(smiles) don't worry. I just called you here to talk about initiating you into education. It's time that you go to Gurukul and start learning from a Guru.

Bijjladeva- (Fake worry but internally horrified) but Sivagami, they are just kids. How can you do this to them. Please think about our son and *with disgust * my brother's children also.

Sivagami- Don't worry. Right now, they require basic education before going to Gurukul. I will give them basic education for about six months and then send them to Gurukul to sharpen their skills. In that time, if you are dying to meet the children then you can go to them once in a month in the Gurukul. While they are studying in Gurukul, they will get martial arts training from the best person, which is Kattapa. So there is my education plan. Any problem with that?

Bijjladeva- will Ayanika learn along with the Princes?

Sivagami-(looks at him with surprise) Obviously, she will, since she is at par with the Princes.

Bijjladeva- but she is a girl!

Sivagami- so what? Even if she is a girl, she managed to save the lives of her brother using her intelligence. This shows that she is at par with her brothers and she will get education along with them. This is the Rajmata of Mahishmati order. Any problem with that?

Bijjladeva- ( seething inside) no, not at all.

Kattapa looked at the kids with tears in his tears. Then he looked at Sivagami. He went up to her and touched her feets in a way of showing his gratitude. The kids also went and hugged Sivagami.

A new chapter of their life had opened. It will be interesting to see whether a rivalry will develop or will friendship make some relations stronger?
