The boys agreed to visit Hastinapur. They were all going in their respective chariots, except Jimin and Hoseok. They wanted to ride their horses, so, that's what they did. Eventually, they all reached Hastinapur. The royal family of Hastinapur welcomed them. Kalaa pradarshan was supposed to occur the next day, the same day when the princes were supposed to return.

So, after taking some rest, the boys decided to visit the royal garden. They were roaming in the garden, thinking no one else was there, but... someone else was also there, hidden behind the trees, holding a bow, an arrow stringed on it. The hidden person released the arrow, the arrow swooshed past Jungkook, taking his armlet along with it. The arrow was released with such precision, that no one even noticed it.

Manavi came from behind the trees, and picked up the arrow, the armlet tugging at the end of it.
"Chorni !", said Jungkook.

"Huh?", Manavi turned towards him only to find him glaring at her, disbelief evident in his eyes.

"Mai koi chorni nhi, Pradhan mantri Vidur ki putri Manavi hu.", She said, glaring back.

"Oh achha... Toh adarniya pradhan mantri ji ki putri, kya aap bata sakti hain ki mera bhujband aapke hatho'n mein kya kar raha hai.", he asked, still glaring.

Rest of the boys also arrived there hearing the commotion.

"Hum dhanurvidya ka abhyas kar rahe the. Ab aapko toh teer maar nahi sakte the, isliye aapka bhujband kaat diya. Hum aapko ye waapas karne hi waale the.", she told, now being polite.

"Aapne kaha, humne maan liya.", he said, rolling his eyes.

"Toh mat maaniye.", she said, returning his armlet.

She greeted the rest of the boys. They greeted back. She, then, left for her chamber.

Dwarka:

Shivali was practicing her sword in the practicing arena, her moves precise, body moving graciously. After 6 hours, she stopped practicing and sat down in a chair kept nearby.

 Random thoughts started filling her mind, but why are all these thoughts related to Suga only, she wondered. His gummy smile, his agile moves, his deep voice, his nervousness at times, it's all about him and only him. Why? She had no idea. All she knew is that, this longing for Suga isn't hurting her, instead, it's mesmerizing her.

Atmika was going towards Kalindi's room. A game of chess was planned between both of them. After all, both were champions when it comes to chess. Going towards her room, she heard a voice calling her.

"Kumari Atmika", the voice said.

"Kumar Jin!", she mumbled, wondering what's Jin doing here.

She turned around to find Jin standing there. He came towards her and took her hand in his. She was shocked, and was wondering whether someone possessed Jin. What's with acting so wierd, all of a sudden.

"Kumar, aap thik toh hain?", she asked, unsure, but as soon as she blinked her eyes, Jin disappeared. "Kya ye phir se ek swapn tha?", she asked herself. 

"Pagal", she said, hitting her forehead softly, and went to Kalindi's room.

Aradhya was sitting on the swing in the royal garden of Dwarka, when a little bird came there and sat on the swing near her. She kept her finger near the bird, and the bird climbed on it.

She talked to the bird for some time, and then, the bird flew away, leaving Aradhya by herself, when Aradhya felt someone pushing the swing. She turned behind to see Krishna standing there.

"Kin vicharo'n mein khoyi ho sakhi.", he teased.

"Keshav!", Aradhya called.

"Hm." he said.

"Kya ek stree do purusho'n se prem kar sakti hai?", she asked, finally.

Krishna smiled, moving forward, sitting on a chair kept nearby.

"Yadi ek purush do striyo'n se prem kar sakta hai, toh ek stree do purusho'n se prem kyu nhi kar sakti?", he answered.

"Arthat ye paap nahi?", she asked.

"Prem aur paap ka koi sambandh hi nahi.", he told.

"Prem kya hai, Keshav?", she asked.

"Sampoorna samarpan ko hi prem kahte hain, sakhi.", he told.

"Arthat prem karne ke baad premi ke jeevan mein khud ka koi vash nahi?", she asked further.

"Hota hai, kintu, jisse prem hota hai, uske nirnay ka samman bhi hota hai.", he told.

"Toh kya ek stree do purusho'n se vivaah kar sakti hai?", she asked, looking at Krishna.

"Haan. Kintu sakhi, prem bhinn prakaar ke hote hain. Maata pita aur santaan ke prem ko vatsalya kehte hai. Usii prakaar bhakt aur bhagwan ke prem ko bhakti kehte hain. Toh nirnay lene se pehle ye vichar awashya kar lena chahiye, ki tumhara prem kis prakar ka hai.", he smiled.
