Excitement and eagerness both have distinct field to emerge, to be felicitated. Though both sounds quite familiar still both have different flow to follow, to go with. Excitement acts as a positive spirit to speed up the pace while the later holds up the speed as it's on favour of impatience. Here we have the scope to meet both excitement and eagerness at both sides, not only them, their shade of effects too which are going to put effort on the canvas of time, leading the way forward.

Only one day was left for coming back of Subhadra. In these days she was claimed under a cold war in between of her thoughts. She didn't get a cherishing moment of peace as she didn't inform Arjun about her departure. That day she couldn't protest in front of her brother and sister in laws.

Satyabhama revealed the plan to her at last moment. Others also had made her to do hurry in packing her stuff and Kanha urged her that he would inform about her departure to Arjun. She couldn't able deny his assurance as that assurance was the flag bearer of her feelings.

Evening was approaching with baby slow steps, and the aura of day was going backward like a mother inspiring child to come ahead, to increase it's peace, and to grow up with steady steps. Before night could engulf the earth fully the mild shades of evening was scripting it's message to mankind, which will attend the tiredness, and will lessen the burden of that tiredness eventually till their resting place, the dark dome of delight, the one and only night.

Subhadra was staring at the sky which was shifting towards it's new appearance. She used to stare sky always whenever she needs solace. Whenever she doesn't wish to move out to garden she preferred sky sovereignty as her nourishment.

After staring of sometimes she closed her eyes to hear the hymn which used to ring in her heart holding up her spiritual energy, harvesting that into multiple folds.

The Hymn:

"Shantakaram bhujanga shayanam
Padnabham suresham
Vidhwadhaaram gagana sadrusham
Megha varnam shubangam
Laxmikantam kamala nayanam
Yogivrihi dhyana gamyam
Vande vishnum vabhabhaya haram
Sarvalaukekam natha"

Kalindi was watching her standing at a little distance. During Subhadra's sky staring Kalindi always used to present around her. Being a source of nature, that too the water energy which has physiographic picturisation of divine residence of Narayan, Kheer sagar, Kalindi, the living form of devi Yamuna never miss the opportunity to conserve the natural vibes praising her natha.

A tear drop was shining at the corner of her eye due to the happy shiver worked on her body.

"Missing him!" A known voice made Kalindi shift her gaze.

"Then let's talk to him," Mitravindha suggested as sisters couldn't able take Kalindi's tears, may the reason is the vibes of the name of their beloved natha.

"In these days he never initiated a conversation," Kalindi told in a half chocked voice.

"Yes, it's we who used to initiate," Nagnajiti completed the further phrase.

"Let's ask him right now. But before that let me call Rukmini jiji and Jambvanti jiji. They didn't get the chance to interact with arya in these days due to their over indulgence," Bhadra told while forwarding some steps away from sisters.

After sometimes Bhadra returned with Rukmini and Jambvanti. Till then Subhadra had departed from there.

"I came to know that my sisters have complain for arya. Is it?" She was sounding like Kanha while asking.

"Like arya you also know everything, jiji. What's the need of asking?" Lakshmana saddened her voice in response.

"Jiji, are you in our favour this time? Won't you take his side in between of our countering?" Satyabhama asked making Rukmini giggle. Among sisters she was comparatively strict in this matter.

"Jiji, answer please," Nagnajiti couldn't wait till the halt of the melodious jingle.

"I am always with you, sisters. I won't interfer in the countering till the valid reason comes to front," Rukmini assured to sisters.

"But about what we are going to complain?" Jambvanti's question made sisters face palm together. Sometimes her naivety was something beyond to be held up calmly.

"You just join us. You will come to know," Bhadra told to Jambvanti as she didn't have patience to explain.

Then sisters closed eyes to be connected with the vibes flowing towards their destination. Kanha was arranging the parchments which were checked by him.

"Pranam Dwarkadheesh!" Sisters greeted in chorus making him smile.

"You all are greeting me with this name at a same pace! It never had happened before. But I am feeling relaxed with this pace," He teased them provoking to a point where it was quite difficult to hold back anger.

"Can we know the meaning of your words?" Satyabhama asked sarcastically which was so expected.

"Not meaning, it's hidden meaning," Mitravindha joined to boost up Satya's sarcasm.

"The pace of voice is indicating that you all have the same issue. Now I don't have to deal with each one individually," Listening this Bhadra came forward siding Kalindi.

"Issue! Our grief is an issue for you!" She exclaimed venting out her anger a bit.

"Don't be hyper, Priye. After dau's departure I didn't get break even for a minute from my kingly duties. So this word issue slipped from my mouth as I frequently use this nowadays in administrative matter," His excuse was perfect, but not for pacify them.

"Arya, why didn't you interact with us from your side till now?" Rukmini came forward sensing the need of her intervention.

"Before asking me why didn't you ask this to your sisters? Each reciprocation has it's reason, Priye," With this answer sisters looked at each other with confusion.

"Then say that reason, Arya," Rukimini asked not letting the argue go far.

"Your sisters used to ask me about welfare of family, system of internal administration of palace during interaction. But they didn't bother to ask about me. So I will do something to make them realise, won't I?" Hearing this everyone's face became pale.

"Will you make my sisters realise in this way?" Rukmini told indicating Kalindi who was standing behind, away from the conversation.

"Kalindi, I am sorry. It's your sensitivity which doesn't let me go far in leg pulling. Don't be sad anymore, Priye," He apologized making Kalindi look at him with emotional eyes.

"So you had plan to go far!" Naganajiti interrupted their eye contact making others intense their gazing towards Kanha.

"It's really not fair. Here we are worried and you are still casual about it!" Jambavati exclaimed.

"No more discussion on it, sisters. Let's wrap up it here," Rukmini intervened before the banter could start again.

"You all are returning tomorrow, right? Come soon. Someone is waiting for this eagerly," Sisters weren't unknown about that someone about whom Kanha told.

"We know it's Arjun. Because no one has ability to make you eager after all," Hearing Satya's answer Rukmini was sure that this banter can't be wrapped up easily like always. Hence she thought to give up.

"If I am not eager then what? I am also waiting for you all," This time his smile was genuine which was adopting the shade of loveliness each time sisters staring deep into his eyes.

"We need to return tomorrow," Rukmini told a bit loudly breaking the eye lock session.

After that all went on the way making the air blank which was having bliss of sweet banter before sometimes. Now only silence was filling that place.

Subhadra was sitting on couch leaning her one cheek on it. In these days she had missed him so much, it would be an understatement to say. In real she was lost in him the deepest in these days. But she had managed well to be herself for her surrounding, so that no one could trace anything unusual. But she didn't know with whom she was continuing to keep secrecy actually their silence was the support for her in going far with her feelings towards exploration, towards her acceptance about those.

Today they were returning. But a different kind of hesitation was pulling herself from being happy. Only those honey brown eyes were coming to her vision, but she couldn't reciprocate their depth. She was feeling like she can't face him anymore as imagining his wait for her each morning was making her heart heavy.

It's the first time when she couldn't become fully assured even after she had Kanha's words. Today her melancholy was at it's peak. After not being able to handle she decided to allow herself to be straight towards the view of those honey brown eyes which she was avoiding in these days.

She closed her eyes. Looking into his eyes made her smile at first place as she received a serene welcome from them. But before she could apologize those eyes made her words stop with an affectionate insistence.

After Kanha she had witnessed that shade of insistence in someone's gesture. She was all totally merged in that subconsciously.

"There you are
Where no havoc dares to come
Where no reason steps in
Unless you want
Where you rules as my peace
Where you smiles differently
Only for me, only for me
Never let your smile fade
Do hold it on it's place
Only for me, only for me"

She heard his voice subconsciously which was the grace of nature towards lovers. In real Arjun recited that poem for Subhadra exactly at that time remembering her, staring into her eyes subconsciously. Here Subhadra reciprocated that in the same way. That favoured the connectivity in between them and the message flowed well in from of invisible vibes.

There he was smiling with content and she also slept with the same smile, the smile of content.
