It was time for Renuka to go to her husbands house. Ayanika was a bit emotional at this point as her bestfriend was finally going away from her to live her life. She hugged Renuka and gave her a necklace for her to remember. After that both Akanksh and Renuka leave for there kingdoms respectively.

Just as they leave there is a loud horn sounded for entire court to assemble. Ayanika quickly goes to her and dresses up accordingly.

She reaches the court and stands in front of her assigned chair which was on Rajmata Sivagammi's side. Amar enters and stands next to Ayanika. After sometime, everyone comes and sits on their seats. Finally Bhalladeva enters with Rajamata Sivagammi Devi and Bijjaladeva. They also sit on their respective places.

Bhalladeva- I am impressed with the way all of you are working for the development of this kingdom. Today, I called this meeting because I wanted to appoint a angrakshak who will also take care of temple duty, the Shiva temple which is under the royal family. So, I just wanted your advise related to this.

Ayanika- (suspicious) But Maharaj, The Shiva Temple duty comes under Amar bhaiya and if Amar Bhaiya is not available then Kattapa mama does the duty. Then why do you need to do this?

Bhalladeva- Devasena requires Amar's support more, and as Kattapa is out of the town max of the time that's why the temple duty is will be given to this person.

Ayanika nods her head.

Ayanika- who is the person?

Bhalladeva- it is none other than Sethupati. He is really loyal to me and has the ability to be my angrakshak, because the way he drives my chariot in every war especially the Kalkeya one that's he is eligible to be my angrakshak and he is good managing temple affairs, that's why he will be given the duty. Do all of you agree with it?

Ayanika- But Maharaj, I still have ...

Sivagammi- Ayanika, if Maharaj has chosen the person for this job, then he will be capable for it. Then why do you still have doubt?

Ayanika- (politely) Rajmata, Being at the post at I am, I have the right to question and doubt the eligibility of the person. If you give me permission, then can I continue?

Bijjaladeva- See Sivagammi, what kind of snake you have grown in your backyard, who is countering your order and not listening to you. I always said to you but you never listen to me. Now see the result.

Ayanika-(a bit surprised) Rajmata, I did not mean in that way...

Sivagammi- (a bit hurt and raises her hand, Ayanika becomes quiet) Appoint Sethupati as the Angrakshak and give him the temple duty. From tomorrow, he will start his duty at temple. The court is adjorned for today.

Everyone leaves.

In Ayanika's room,

Ayanika changes into comfortable clothes and sits on her bed. She starts thinking about today's events again. Just then, Amar comes over there. He sits next to her quietly, which she doesn't realise. He puts his hand around her shoulder, bringing her out of her thoughts.

Amar- What are you thinking, Ayu?

Ayanika- I don't understand one thing Bhaiya, What have I done to anger Ma that she is not listening to my point of view at all?

Amar- You have done nothing of that sort, I feel someone else who is really good at manipulation is doing something like this. You know Ma pretty well that you already know her thought process before even she takes any kind of decision. I guess one day she will realise her mistake.

Ayanika- (hugs Amar) Thank you Bhaiya for being my pillar of support, by the way how is Sakhi doing?

Amar- She is doing fine. (Facepalms) That reminds, she told me to bring you to her.

Ayanika- (gives a deadpan look) And you are telling me this right now, how forgetful are you?

Amar- Yeah I am forgetful, then who keeps on forgetting her weapons in the practice region.

Ayanika- Ok now let's go.

They leave for Amar's room.

In Amar's room,

Ayanika goes and sits next to Devasena, while Amar stands next to her.

Ayanika- you called me Sakhi?

Devasena- Yes, Sakhi. I want to go to the Shiva temple to pray to Mahadev for the healthy birth of our child. I want you to go along with me.

Ayanika-(bows a bit dramatically) Aapka Aadesh Sar Ankhon par. If you give me the permission, Sakhi, can I put ears on your tummy and listen to the heartbeat of the warrior being created inside over there.

Devasena smiles and nods. Ayanika puts her ears on the tummy.

Ayanika- Mere bacche, kaise ho? Ab jaldi se aa jao iss duniya mein aur apni bua se milo jo tumse milne ko taras rahi hai. Tum mujhe yeh vachan doge na?

Suddenly a kick is felt by Devasena in her tummy which Ayanika also feels.

Devasena- aah!

She looks at Devasena with a smile, and Devasena looks back at her with a smile. Amar quickly takes her hand in his eyes and looks at her worried.

Amar- Devi, what happened? Are you alright?

Devasena- (smiles) Amrit, I am alright. Your child is just like you. It gave it's aunt vow which she asked for. It kicked to say I promise.

Amar- What are you... Wait you mean to say that our child gave it's first kick?

Devasena smiles and nods. Amar becomes excited.

Amar- I also want to feel it. Ayu, canyou please ask it again?

Ayanika smiles and shakes her head. She puts Amar's hand on Devasena's tummy.

Ayanika- Kya tum mujhe yeh vachan doge ki tum jaldi se iss duniya aaoge aur apni Bua se miloge?

The baby kicked again which was felt by Amar. He became so excited that he hugged Devasena then Ayanika and went to that corner of his room where musical instruments were kept. He quickly picks up a Bansuri and starts playing it. Devasena and Ayanika start laughing loudly.

In Bhalladeva's room,

Bhalladeva was laying down on his bed and relaxing, while Bijjaladeva was pacing up and down the room. Finally, the patience of Bijjaladeva ran out.

Bijjaladeva- (looking at Bhalla) Now tell me what are you going to do next?

Bhalladeva- Pitashree, relax and stay calm. You will see what will happen.

Bijjaladeva- You don't how fast Ayanika is, that girl changes the game in minutes.

Bhalladeva- She won't be able to do it this time.

Bijjaladeva- How are you so sure?

Bhalladeva- because she doesn't know my next move that will unfold tomorrow.

Bijjaladeva- What are you going to do?

Bhalladeva- Just wait and watch. Until then, go do the job you have been given. There should be no momentary lapse in this process.

Bijjaladeva nods and goes towards Sivagammi's room to talk with her.
