Two weeks passed in a snap. The family of Parikshit who stayed back to comfort Satyapriya decided to leave as Suruchi's wedding was approaching.
Bhargi showed no improvement. Though his injuries are healed he is still unable to recognise anyone or anything. He is just like a new born baby that's all.
Satyapriya sat feeding Bhargi with her own hands.
" Wedding day is near Satya we must leave " Iravati started.
Satyapriya nodded.
" We aren't coming Iravati. Hope Pitamaha Yuyutsu and Pitamahi Vidhyabharani understand our situation " Satyapriya said.
" Of course and one more thing. I am taking kids with me " Parikshit said making the parents to go pale.
" I understand. It's hard for you but I have no assurance that your relatives will spare them alive. Please don't deny " Parikshit said.
Satyapriya looked at Dristadeva who gave a helpless look. Abhigna just walked out without a word. Janamejaya followed him.
" No Mava. We aren't coming" Anila said.
" Yes insted you take Sashi with you " Agnivarna grinned.
" Bhrata Abhigna is disturbed and if we two also leave mata and pitashree means who will look after them? That's why we will stay back as a support to our parents. Sashi is too young to cope up with these sorrows that's why you take her with you " The twins said.
Parikshit embraced them affectionately.
" Take care" He pecked then on their forehead.
Satyapriya and Dristadeva turned towards the verendah where Arjuna sat feeding Sarvayashi. They must agree that Sarvayashi is attached to Arjuna soo much.
Satyapriya hugged Sarvayashi close to her heart for few moments. She looked at Iravati.
" She is little yet Iravati if she does some mistakes do not beat her she will understand if you say. Please take care of her " Satyapriya said trying her best to hold back tears.
" Should you ask these things to me? She is our house mahalakshmi Satya, my daughter in law. I shall look after her like my own kid " Iravati assured her.
Dristadeva picked up his daughter and pecked her forehead.
" Be a good girl there okay? We will visit you frequently. Soon after Bharghi get's well we will bring you back " He smiled. Sarvayashi hugged him tightly.
" Sashi shall we go " Arjuna said forwarding his arms. Sarvayashi floated to his arms looking at her parents.
The chariots and palanquins were ready for their departure. Sarvayashi embraced sleeping Bharghi and pecked his cheeks before leaving. She smiled at her parents and rest siblings before leaving with Parikshit.
Satyapriya buried her face in her husband's chest unable to see the fading figure of her daughter.
" Relax Sashi will be happy there more than staying with us " Dristadeva rubbed her shoulders.
Satyapriya wiped her face and nodded.
" Maa " Abhigna pointed at the approaching group of peoples.
It was Rochana and Usha along with their children Vajra and Mrigaketana.
Satyapriya welcomed them with smile. Rochana and Usha both first went to see Bharghi along with their sons.
" Such a charming boy he was. Look how pathetic his appearance is " Usha sighed.
