I never had trust in destiny. But for the first time, i thought to challange the so called destiny. I had sworn, that if this time destiny wins, then i'll believe in that destiny all my life. Challanging the destiny, funny? Isn't it? There was only way to wage the war; that's mata. So i decided to call up mata, and tell her to departure from Panchal as soon as possible. I knew, it was risky, i could have lost her forever, but if destiny is there, then we will see what happen. I knew i was in love with her, but could have i won her in THIS attire? She was a kshatria, i was a Brahmin, then was no compatibility, you know! I slapped my head from that very moment i saw her, knew about her, that why did I even changed my life! Yes, it's crazy, but i could have stayed with those hundred joker monkey army for my whole life to gain her. And now? No doors open. I don't see any doors. It was impossible. So, practically i took the challange. I wanted to see, how can this so called destiny land me into that swayamvar without my will! Wait, didn't I wished the same?

''Gurumata!!'' I called her out. She was just in another corridor and of can hear me even with my soft voice. She also answered me with her most caring voice. She as always a devoted devotee to the Lord, and the most caring to us. Her soft and tender voice full of care would always make us forget absence of our mother. I requested her to come to my chamber that night. ''Mata, will you please come to my chamber today?'' Gurumata was little surprised with my this demand, because i never called her till my first days when there was news of hidimbasur and I thought he might come to my chamber like an evil spirit after death. And i still laugh at my antics! Well, i still fear those heineous creatures, and hope to never encounter them. I saw a little curve of confusion on her forehead and her lips. She gave soft smile to me and asked,'' why, dear? Is there any problem?'' I had made ready a perfect plan what excuse to make. Night story... pritha... new introduction... knowledge... umm... these are great causes. I placed them in their places, took a deep breath inside and replied that i wanted to hear a bedtime story. ''I heared a name from Pitashree, and now I want to know about it!'' ''I can tell even now, dear! Tell me!'' Well, i feared this. But i don't know why, i get bundles of ideas while making excuses. Of course excuses is a mind game! I simply told her there would be no fun hearing it standing rather than lying in the bed peacefully and hear2ing it a peaceful mind free from all chaos. And it was true also! Gurumata agreeded at the next moment and i jumped like a little kid. Gurumata simply smiled at my childish antics and said me to remind her while going to bed. Oh! How excited was I! New things would always attract me. But it seemed rather a plot to me!

So, as per my plan, i went to mata and asked, ''mata, can't we leave for naimasharannya after so days?" She was rather little surprised, because i was the only one who had opposed to go out of panchal. '' well, why dear, why so hurry!" "Mata, as you know that swyamvar was coming nearby, and many kings have already started to come, it won't be apt to live within them. Besides, we need to go a long distance also! So don't you think we should leave before duryodhan comes?" That was my cause. Well, it is rather silly. I know that. And nakul's face was a thing to see. He was looking at me with round eyes like fish and opened mouth and was trying to calculate what actually was happening. But i wish he could understand me. He was too naive to know my delimma. Pity me and pity him. Mata's reply was something like we'll go after 15 days before swayamvar as it was auspocious day to leave for naimisharannya. I didn't know what will happen, and i also knew that none's waiting for me there, irrespective of prediction or whatever. The only thing was that, to defeat the destiny, or maybe to defeat myself only?!
