Panchali felt something round her waist and looked down. Arjun just finished fitting the waist belt and it is out of the world. The waist belt is very thin and it is made with superb skills. The golden chain is filled with nava Ratnas the nine gems, vajra,vaidhurya,gomedhika Pushyaraga, marakata manikya Neela mutya Pagada . All are in smaller size and they are shining with such brilliance that Draupadi is awestruck and could not speak instantly. On top of it it has stunning golden side chains attached to it with small hangings that are sounding whenever Panchali moves. Liked it? Arjun asked looking at her face that mirrored her feelings. Panchali kept Pragati on the couch and turned to him. Where did you get it from? She asked placing her hands round his neck. Not from your Tijori.Arjun smilingly told her. Then? Panchali is too curious to know. Arjun told her. I specified the design to Maya and he made it as per my taste. Arjun checked the waist belt and commented. I am absolutely perfect in measuring your waist. That is why it fitted so well, Panchali blushed and praised the gift. It is too cute Arjun, It is unique. Arjun observed her blushing cheeks and smiled. Just like the bride with the garland. You know the ornament's beauty can be felt when you have only that one and nothing else. Arjun started his poetic lines. Panchali hid her smile and kept Pragati who went into deep sleep in the Jhoola. Arjun continued. The beautiful waist belt embellishes your beauty like nothing else does. Arjun moved closer and whispered in her ear. I hope you understood what I meant to say. ...Krishnaa, Panchali closed her eyes intoxicated by his love and passion... ...Did you see any kind of trouble among the Pandavas regarding Panchali? Duryothan asked his wife Bhanumati when they are alone . Bhanumati replied with a vexed expression. Why would there be animosity between them? They follow a particular code of conduct ,a rule. So no question of any trouble. At present she belongs to Arjun. Duryothan made a face hearing Arjun's name from her. That is the reason for the glow of face. He paused and remarked. Of Draupadi. Bhanumati understood his satire and turned her face away with disgust. How are his other wives? Subhadra? And that AlliRani? Bhanumati replied curtly. They are all nice. Alli has no bad feelings at all. She is enjoying her premotherhood days so happily . Arya for God's sake don't try to expose your intolerance for Pandavas. They have so much support inside and outside Indra Prasth. Duryothan pretended innocence. Priya Bhanumati? Don't think otherwise. We came here with good intention only . To spend time with our cousins. but not to create trouble. Rest assured. He took a reluctant Bhanumati into his arms ...Parvati approached Siva and addressed him. Swami, open your eyes. I have a request to make. Mahadev opened his eyes slowly and smiled at his Uma Parvati. Now what happened Uma ? He asked.Parvati sat near him. Your Alli is too happy with Arjun. I told you no? Arjun wins her heart. Mahadev said with a warm touch on her shoulder. Alli is happy swami. But I want Chandra to let Varchas stay on earth for a longer period. Won't you see How he is loved by one and all. What will happen to Subhadra and Panchali when they lose him on his sixteenth year? And your Arjun,how could he bear his separation? Even my brother loves him so dearly. Change the destiny Swami. Let Abhimanyu live full life. Sakti pleaded with Siva. Mahadev nodded his head. Parvati, Destiny can not be changed by me or by you . Chandra will get him back as decided on the thirteenth day of the war. Then only Arjun will use his full mettle to destroy Evil. But Abhimanyu's name will shine as long as the stars, sky ,earth , life remains . His fame will be sung by generations to generations. Mahadev closed his eyes as Uma looked helplessly unable to digest the bitter Truth.
