Vatsala stood in front of Kurukshetra.
Still that ground was moist, blood blood blood everywhere.

She closed her eyes in hesitation because of that irritating smell of fleash and blood.

The Vultures , crows and dogs were devouring the remaining fleash of limbs of men.

Distressed women were roaming here and there , confused and orphaned kids were searching for food.

Scaring howl of dogs were breaking the deadly silence of that land.

Vatsala removed her sandals from her feet.

" Dharmakshetra " She said to herself sarcasticlly.

She entered and she felt a sudden pang in her heart making her body to shiver once.

She started moving forward as she imagined the war.

" Ayya!!!!!! " Huge cries of widows was heart wrenching.

Vatsala's body jerked with fear.

" hey Kurukshetra..... after drinking this much blood of warriors .... now devour these tears " She joined her hands in a sarcastic way.

She came to the place where Chakravyuha was formed.

She felt as if her legs have become so heavy . Those events of 13th day came infront of her.

" maaaa " Abhimanyu yelled in pain.

But it vanished all of a sudden.

She looked down and found a Broken wheel which was covered by soil.

The wheel which Abhimanyu used as a weapon.

She sat down in front of it , an incident of past came to her mind.

That day Vatsala as usually woke up early . Priya was not yet born at that time.

Vatsala sat writing something.

Abhimanyu placed his hands on the next pillow to find Vatsala but she was not there.

" Shashi " He woke up in a horror.

"shashi " he cried.

Listening to him Vatsala came running.

" Arya what happened " She asked as she sat next him.

Abhimanyu immediately pulled her into a tight hug .

" where were you ?? " He cried.

" I was writing there " Vatsala said.

" can't you sit next to me on bed and write what is the need of going away from me " He tightened his tight hug.

" Arya I am unable to breathe leave me " Vatsala said with difficulty.

Abhimanyu leaves her and turns away.

" oh now you are angry na " Vatsala said kissed his shoulder.

Abhimanyu slightly turned towards her and pointed his cheek.

" na I won't " Vatsala said for she recived a glare from Abhimanyu.

Vatsala kissed his cheek and Abhimanyu suddenly took her hands in his.

" shashi.... what means..... we both will die together ok " Abhimanyu said.

" suddenly what happened to you " Vatsala gave a confused look.

" Shashi I cannot live without you or I cannot give pain to you by leaving you .... that's why we both will die together " Abhimanyu said like a kid.
