Sivu was still processing from Karn's view on her successful game of Ludo.Her body was literally pleading to shut her eyes for sleep,but she voluntarily disobeyed her body and just kept thinking about his unfeministic rumination over her triumphant game of Ludo with the vicious and wicked filled curse geriatric Mama, whom Hastinapur had to reluctantly invite for the sake of the consort vacany in Dhiridhrastar's life.
She just made her way to her favourite spot of the room,the huge windowpanes because that had a resemblance to the one that was back in her room in Kaliyug.She felt a connect to that place,so she sat there and comtemplated on how to bring Karn to rationalism when it comes to dealing with both administrative and personal affairs.
She was completely clueless of ways to bring him to her track because she knew Karn was as stubborn as her and he wouldn't easily let things go just because Sivu wanted.Especially he would never forget the principles and protocols of his era just for the sake of his newly married consort.For the first time,she didn't come across any ideas to negotiate with him.Though she had few thoughts to quote,Karn was not ready for a conversation itself.Her brain was churning in mental agitation to prove her point at precision.She was not someone who could literally bawl at the top of her voice to get people apprehend what is exactly abstracting on her mind.She thought of seeking help from Meena,Madhav,Arjun or atleast from Duryodhan.These were the few people whom she could completely trust and never feel judged upon on any kinda confession.
Krishna left immediately after her marriage and the other two people belong to the same Yug and also they were men,she realized for someone to give a valuable solution to the problem she's swirling her mind with..they must first have a clear inference about the obstacle she's undergoing.When Arjun and Duryodhan couldn't even get into Sivu's shoes to analyze her struggle, how would they help her reach her destination?.She terminated that plan.
Though Meena, who could absolutely and perfectly picture Sivu's situation,also apprehend how hard it takes for Sivu to live with the marital protocols of that era..,Sivu quit the thought of even asking her opinion on it because the other day Meena requested Sivu just to stick with what has been preached as the way of living in that Yug for the sake of the common people.She asked her to be selfless in the way of ruling and also she didn't want to bother her friend,by putting up a wretched concern because the coronation was the final day the whole family would make their stay,after that they had to leave to Hastinapur.Sivu was helpless."Queenship is no joke",she sighed.
As these mixed thoughts were constantly flowing in her mind,sleep started to dominate them,she felt drowsy and in no seconds,her eyes shut and she fell into deep sleep near the window itself.
On the other side Karn too slept guilt free thinking that his statement was accurately true and correct.Also Sivu's confidence on her subdue over the sinful GandharRaj got him pissed.So he didn't pity her at all and slept fine.
THE NEXT MORNING
Karn woke up fully rejuvenated and happy as it was a big day for him.It was his coronation.This was the first time he was going to be coronated as a King not based on someone's recommendation,he was going to be addressed as a King identified by his true capabilities and valour.This time he was along with righteousness and also had his whole family to love and support him no matter what.He was not anymore a helpless young adult pining for love and recognition.People accepted him wholeheartedly eventhough he befriended Duryodhan again.
But the root cause for all this glee in Karn's life was Sivu.He totally forgot that until he saw her sleeping like a ingenue near the windowpane.His anger slowly started disappearing seeing her baby like innocent face while sleeping.He thought of terminating this vendetta for once and all because he wanted both of them to be happy on their day of coronation.He very slowly moved towards her,squatted and caressed her head.She immediately woke up by his touch.He grinned at her but she just vaguely said,"Is it time already,I need to get ready?".Saying so,she just got up and left from there leaving Karn more sullen.
