"I think this much would be enough. Now we need to come out from water fast. Chariot will arrive at any time," Dau got relieved when Kanha nodded at his saying.

They both came out of water, and started to squeeze the ends of their attires to make it dry.

"Are you happy by troubling me like this? Why am I asking even when I know the answer is absolutely yes? If Gudiya hadn't wished to have lotuses from this particular pond then we would have a easy task. But like always no task regarding Gudiya can be easy," Dau huffed with his saying.

"This time I didn't trouble you, Dau. I just had an adventurous ride, and you always have problem with adventure. Moreover the fault of you being troubled isn't mine. It's your horses who weren't habituated with adventure just like you," Kanha countered with a pout.

"I am also saying about my horses. Now I need to convince them to be harmonious with me as they are hell tormented with the sudden exposure of hardships," Dau told while stressing his each word seriously.

"Don't worry, Dau. We will take your chariot for our adventurous ride from now onwards?" Kanha's saying made dau to close eyes, to compose himself from to be annoyed.

"Dau, there chariot came. Let's go," With Kanha's excited voice dau opened his eyes, and followed him to chariot.

At last they reached at kanyakul, and their eyes at first glowed, and then glistened with happy tears at the sight of a young beautiful maiden who was none other than their Gudiya.

Words became numb, and even the outer world also for brothers. Both were engrossed in staring at their Gudiya who was once a five years old little girl. The one who had learned walking with support of their hands, now is enable to encourage others on their path, they thought as they saw her guiding little girls about shooting of targets.

The one who is their delight, now is capable enough of combating disappointment. They smiled at that as she cheered up a little girl who was sad for missing her target during shooting.

The one who used to prank them, and used to melt them with affection, now is an aspiration of many talents from the point of try to tackling well. They admired her proudly at the sight of those little girls hugging her out of happiness.

"Gudiya!" This word escaped from the duo's lips with the gesture of widening their arms for hug.

"Missed you to no bounds," The duo said at the same time while engulfing their encapsulation of ecstasy, their Gudiya in their hug.

"Same goes with me also, Dau and bhratashri!" Subhadra broke the hug to witness affection in eyes of her brothers.

"Here's your gift what you asked before coming to kanyakul. At that day we couldn't get it for you. Because we didn't want you to be late at your first day," Kanha handed her a beautifully arranged bouquet of white lotuses.

"Love you both dau and bhratashri!" She exclaimed while receiving the bouquet from Kanha.

"You should say that you love me more as I faced a lot while fulfilling your wish of getting white lotuses," Dau complained to her.

"Don't say what dau wished. He forgot your wish. It's me who fulfilled your wish," Kanha's saying made her narrow her gaze at dau.

"Forgive me, Gudiya. Actually you know na how much I need to handle. Even the nutrition of almond milk is at less efficiency in my case to provide me handling strength," Dau's explanation earned a caring look from her.

"Dau, you have excellent skills of sorting out issues while getting sympathy," Kanha smirked with a smile.

"Don't drag this matter into mess, Kanha. Let's go to gurumata to have her permission to leave," Dau said, and proceeded into aashram.

Gurumata pampered Subhadra emotionally, and gave her some farewell advices. Every one of aashram gathered for biding farewell to her, the serene softness of their lives. She was dearest to everyone in each way of goodness like the delight of dessert in their difficulties.

Each moist eyes were reliving the years' long memories from the day Subhadra came there, about each moment she spread her auspiciousness, about every time in which she had filled new aura towards lives in anxiety and in accumulation of challenges.

Among this ongoing also the smile of Subhadra was sparkling with a soothing sensation making the crystal clear appearance of tear drops also shine in everyone's eyes. She widened her smile to make the situation worth to cherish. After noticing smile over each face the trios left towards Dwarka.

In afternoon the siblings' chariot halted for lunch and little rest. They were having fruits by sitting beneath a tree.

"Our sides yearned in these years for your presence, Gudiya!" Dau caressed Subhadra's head.

"This yearning is so wonderful to make us worried about the ones who are in our hearts even. But it has a positive aspect also. Because yearning is penance in absence of what we need and, it becomes pleasure after that need joins in our lives as nourishment," Subhadra's saying made dau engulf her in side hug.

"You said all true, Gudiya. Now there's no place of yearning in our lives. Only merrymaking would be there," Dau's happy saying made Kanha smile mischievously.

"Who knows maybe yearning has much more to cover the distance in this story," He whispered slowly before joining the group hug.
