Bharati~ The Queen Mother In Making

Chapter 19

Arjun was feeding little Parikshit and making him understand chakravyuh. Parikshit was eating and his full focus was over Arjun's words.

Subhadra was noticing the duo and she remembered how Abhimanyu also used to hear about war strategies with full concentration.

Arjun looked at Subhadra who was lost in thoughts. Then he looked at little Parikshit and told, "Pari, End your food soon and then we will practice archery. Today your pitamahi will teach you. "

Parikshit: Pitamah, do pitamahi know archery?

Arjun: Yes and she is a very good archer. Even, she is capable to defeat me too.

Parikshit looked at Subhadra who frowned at Arjun.

Subhadra: Nothing like that, pari. Your pitamah will teach you.

Subhadra got up from there and started walking but Arjun held her hands.

Arjun: Why are you running like this, Satwati?

Subhadra: Why will I run? And I am really not so good in archery. What I will teach him?

Abhimanyu: No. I won't eat.

Subhadra:*glares*

Arjun: Abhi! Your mother don't know archery. So, she is disturbing us.*teases*

Subhadra:*frowns*. Savyasachi, maybe you are forgetting the princess of Dwarka can use every weapons.

Arjun: Oh really? But I can't remember. *teasing smiles*

Subhadra: Oh, then let me show you.

Arjun: Hmm.... show us.

Subhadra took the bow and pierced her target.

Subhadra: Hmm done.

Arjun: Hmm... Abhimanyu also finished his food. But seeing yadavi after long time with bow was nothing but a treat for our father son duo.

Abhimanyu nodded.

...........................................................

Subhadra took the bow and it's true after Abhimanyu or upapandavas death, she never took weapons in her hands. As a result, her hands were shivering today. She was a little bit nervous too.

Arjun: Come on, Satwati. This kind of nervousness doesn't suit you. You are a queen who is bold and a warrior. Remember, who are you.

Subhadra nodded and started explaining Parikshit.
