Abhimanyu was talking to his brother-in-law, Bhanu when his Mata called for him.
"Yes mata".
"I want you to go and talk to Uttara ", Draupadi ordered.
"Who?", he asked, confused.
"Virat's rajkumari. She seems to be feeling left out and awkward. She is our guest so go and make sure she is comfortable".

"Why can't Pragati or Suthanu jiji go and talk to her?", he whined.
"Suthanu has come to Indraprasth after a long time. She has gone to meet her friends. And Pragati is helping me with the arrangements. Now, stop acting childish and go".

Abhimanyu obeyed his mother and went to search for Uttara.

Uttara was loitering around the palace. Her introverted self happy, to not have to talk to anyone. She was lost in her own world, when she saw the silhouette of a man walking towards her.

The face of the person came into view and she saw that it was Rajkumar Abhimanyu. She noticed his handsome face, his strong, lean built........she saw him looking at her and turned her head, avoiding eye contact. They introduced themselves and Abhimanyu  tried to strike a conversation.

"What are you two doing here?", Subhadra asked. "We have to leave for the temple. The aarti will start soon". Uttara sighed in relief, happy to get out of this odd conversation.

Draupadi's eager eyes watched her son and the Virat Rajkumari, keenly. She had been thinking about her son's marriage.
She had observed all rajkumaris present there carefully, but didn't find anyone capable to be Abhimanyu's bride and Indraprasth's yurani.

That was until she met a sweet, innocent princess who had impulsively barged into her study.
She immediately took liking to  her and even asked Subhadra for her opinion. She took had agreed that Uttara was perfect for their Abhimanyu.

After the aarti was done, they all decided to spend sometime at the temple. During this time, Draupadi made sure to spend more time with the Maharani of Matsya Desh. Sudeshna was pleased by the gesture and flattered the Samragyi.

Draupadi turned around to see Suthanu  and Pragati joking and laughing with Uttara. She smiled at the three girls bonding together.

It was late at night and Draupadi sat in her chambers in some deep thought. Arjun looked at her curiously and snapped his fingers in front of her face. This startled Draupadi and she almost jumped, causing Arjun to burst out laughing. Draupadi glared at him and hit him with a pillow.

"What is my Samragyi thinking about?", he asked.
"Abhimanyu".
"What about him?", Arjun asked, sitting up straighter. Draupadi told him what was on her mind and he stared at her, wide eyed.

"Well, I don't have any problem with it,  but do you think he will want this?", Arjun asked.
"Of course he won't, he is your son after all. Just like you".
"Now what did I do?", Arjun whined, childishly.
"Now, did you forget the early days of our marriage?", Draupadi questioned, raising her eyebrows.

"Um......you were married to all five of us. I just wanted to make things easier for you", he reasoned while pouting. Draupadi rolled her eyes. "Excuses ", she muttered under her breath. They both were silent for sometime before they burst out laughing.

"On a serious note, what do you think?", she asked. "On a serious note, I do agree with what you are saying, but we should discuss it with my brothers first before taking any decision."
"Now, go to sleep and don't stress over it", saying this, Arjun enveloped his queen in his arms and they both slept peacefully.
