"Why did you test me Madhusudan?" ShivShisya questioned, not that he minded, but yet the curiosity of knowing the reason was adamant.
"I wanted to know about your knowledge in Shashtra and Shaastra, Parth. I have heard about ShivShisya Arjun and his perfect aim, but I was curious about your knowledge as well. And you stunned me Parth."
Arjun kept mum, walking with his friend, Parth, the one who has perfect aim, the name felt so comforting. He had been known across the three worlds with different names that displayed his valour and knowledge, yet the Parth given by Madhav had a special place? How was Parth different than Savyasachi, Vibhatsu, Gudakesha, Jishnu?
Arjun hoped to extract some explanation from Keshav, and Krishna tactfully turned his question in another direction. Perhaps he didn't know what Arjun was looking for, Or perhaps didn't wish to reveal it now!
"Also Parth, I apologize," Krishna started, a guilty look appeared on his face. "What for Madhav?"
Krishna kept his hand on Arjun's shoulder, turning the other-side he sighed.
"That you have come here to meet me, and I would have to leave you now," The innocence on his face could melt the toughest mountain, and where was Arjun? He confusingly asked his friend. "Where Madhav, can I come?"
"The work is difficult, but if you could manage, then it would be helpful," Krishna's words were orders for Arjun, and who in the world had the heart to deny this pleading tone? "That would be my pleasure Madhav, but where do we have to go?"
Krishna merely laughed, "patience my dear, patience,"
Balram, Mahamahim of Dwarka stepped in the garden, unlike Madhav, he wasn't excitedly waiting for Arjun, but that didn't mean he didn't wish to meet Narottam.
"Arjun," He spoke, looking at Narayan's twin. "Greetings Mahamahim Balram," Arjun bowed down respectfully. The Mace Warrior pulled the Archer in his embrace, smiling brightly. Those who have strong body, have soft heart. And that was 100% true, Balram was soft at heart.
"I have heard a lot about you Arjun, from Kanha, at first I thought Arjun name of his lady love," Balram teased Krishna, at the same time making Arjun feel all homely. Krishna got on his feet and whispered, "Dau,"
Arjun laughed as his sharp ears picked up Krishna's whining tone. 'Are all siblings like this? But whatever it is, I won't tease my Vrinda at all,' Dhananjay thought, there was no way in the world he would tease her this way. "You never know the future Parth," Arjun stumbled back at Krishna's words, did he just reply to his mind?
"Dau, now allow us to leave, we should be leaving now, it's getting later," "Where are you going Kanha?"
Balram turned his suspicious eyes to his notorious brother, and his literal twin. What could possibly go wrong? Last time the two went out so casually, they slayed a demon named Dambhodbhava, after a thousand year penance, 999 times.
