In Anga

Vrushali was having a hard time managing these naughty bunch of kids. Yes Shatrunjay and Sushen were in their early years of adulthood but they made sure to trouble their mother!

Shatrunjay-" Mata."
Vrushali hmms.
Shatrunjay-" Isn't it so silent? Without bhrata Chitrasen and ofcourse our little devils Dvipat and Banasen?"
Vrushali (chuckles)-" I agree! But I am sure they all will be back soon! And I hope your bhrata didn't cause any trouble over there!"

Sushen slips quietly in the kitchen and grabs a apple... He notices Vrishasen and Snigdha coming back from the temple. Snigdha was expected to give birth in the next month but she refused to go to her maike and had decided that the next hire of Anga would be born in Anga itself. This something which karna and she planned. Snigdha joins Vrushali in kitchen. While Vrishasen stares at the Stupidity of his brothers.
Just then Karna's trained eagle
(Author's note- I really don't know if it was a eagle or some other bird!)
Sits on Vrishasen's shoulder he takes the letter and goes to Vrushali. Whose face goes from happiness to grim.

Snigdha-" Mata what happened?"

[ Flashback of the last 3 chapters]

Vrishasen was surprised and angry at the same time.

Sushen-" Huh, Pitashree won't even spare the king for that! Mata you know how many Pitashree hates this?!"
Shatrunjay-" Yes how can he keep his cool? If I was in Pitashree's place my mace would have been in that maharaja's chest!"
Snigdha-" Pitashree must be thinking something! Keep Yourself cool, anger leads to bad decisions!"
Vrushali-" We won't understand the situation sitting here. We need to go ! And yes Vrishasen you will stay behind! "
Vrishasen -" But mata?"
Vrushali-" Yes you will stay behind with Snigdha it's an order and incase if we need you I write it to you."

Vrishasen sighs.

Shatrunjay-" I know he is faking it mata, he is really happy that he getting some alone time with bhabhi!"

Snigdha blushes.

Sushen -" Sahi kaha hai kisine !"

Shatrunjay and Sushen were simply trying to lighten the grim atmosphere.
Soon the three of them leave...

It took them 2 days to reach there. Shatrunjay acted as if he died on the way without food! Sushen was dreaming already. He was smiling like an Idiot the whole time.
They were welcomed at the gates of Vatsal. Draupadi was especially delighted to see Vrushali.. Suthanu looked at Shatrunjay with apologising eyes. Shatrunjay covers his mouth.

Shatrunjay-" Maharaj do you have a bathroom here?"

Sushen nods his head in embarrassment.

Dhruv-" Yes it's on the left hand side."
Suthanu took the opportunity.
Suthanu-" I-I will go with him!"
Sushen-" Nahi Kumari, I will go !"
Suthanu gets up and eyes towards Pragti -" You can sit here!"
Sushen -" Haha okay then ."

Bathroom

Suthanu enters the bathroom and a force pulls her , Shatrunjay pulled her in his embrace and kissed on her forehead making her blush. Suthanu hugged him for a while and whispered...
Suthanu-" I am sorry for my Pitashree's behaviour..."
Shatrunjay-" It's okay dear. Pitashree doesn't keep these things in his head!"
Suthanu chuckles, she ruffled Shatrunjay's hair, they were curly and soft, giving his tough physic a different look. Shatrunjay had died to see her. Her hair was open and she only put a flower beside her ear. It gave the a different fragrance. Her lips were slightly sparkling. Shatrunjay, wanted to say something just then there was a bang on the door.

(Muffled voice - Karna- Putra are you okay?")

Suthanu-" Kakashree he is o-okay we are coming!"

Shatrunjay laughed, and they both made their way out.

Simultaneously

Sushen went and sat beside Pragti, he continued to smile , showing his white teeth to her. Pragti kept thinking, how could she fall in love with such a maniac? Both of them exchanged glances. While in near distance the adults were talking.

Draupadi explained everything to Vrushali. She sighed.
Vrushali-" So three of you have garlanded eachother?"
Chitrasen-" Ji Mata! Par the main rituals aren't done yet!"
Karna-" There is still a chance, Vatsala you can still choose , who YOU want to marry. Marriage is a big decision. It's you who have to spend rest of your life with two men. And Who can guarantee (eyes towards Indraj) how long one can keep ties with other kingdom. You can still choose. "
Nakul Never imagined but yes he wa agreed with him.
Arjun-" I am with Angraj Karn with this. You can still choose!"

Vatsala looks down and towards her father. Karna blocks her view from looking at Indraj.
Karna-" Like I said it is your life. This is your decision! There is no need to consider your father, not after what a he did too you... It's okay just listen to your heart and tell everyone who you want to marry."
Vatsala looked at him, only if her father was like this with her. She looked at Chitrasen and Prativindhya. Both of them were like gems , how could she choose? It's true she was more inclined towards Prathi but Chitrasen's personality matched hers.

Vatsala-" I will marry both of them!"
Yudhishthir-" What? Even after what Angraj said?"
Vatsala-" I have to and I will marry both of them, this garland is as important as the other rituals! I can't break this."

The Pandavas looked at karna, who gave them a disapproved look.

Karna-" I will go call Shatrunjay, you all continue!"

The Pandavas urge her to change her decision but she doesn't. Indraj smirked this time it was entirely her decision. Amazing he thought. 

It was useless convincing her, now that the decision was made.

Vrushali-" Hmm , so we need to prepare everything for marriage?"
Draupadi -" Yes. "
Vrushali-" Putra Sushen."
Sushen was busy he was making something on Pragti's hand. It made Vrushali chuckle. Draupadi called Sutsom and told him to write a letter to Vrishasen and explain him the situation.

After all the silence, Indraj REQUESTED  that the marriage shall take place in their kingdom,since it wa his wife's last wish. Rudra had a Heart talk with Vatsala, if she really was sure about the marriage...

Rudra-" I think Vatsala won't listen she wants to marry both of them! I can't convince her anymore..."

Draupadi-" Okay then, Sutsom tell Vrishasen and Snigdha to join us here. And yes putra Shtrukarm write a letter to Hastinapur now!"

In the midest, a smile crept over Dhruv's face.( Thought- Well how early this is, just a few years ago , someone choosed a sut putra's son over me? Huh don't they say the heir prince usually doesn't make it into the world? Hah yes that unborn baby shall meet a bad destiny.. Hmm, Snigdha, come fast..I am waiting)

[ Yes! Shatrunjay and Sushen are here! What is Dhruv thinking? Do you think Prathi and Chitra are happy with Vatsala's decision? Too know more stay tuned! ]
