Abandoned Arjuna-Gharani Chitrangada: A Roar Of Revenge

Starting of Indraprastha

"Ok. As you wish. I will not fight. I will accept your decision and my fate."

Yudhhisthir bowed at his uncle, King of Hastinapur. He did not have any intention to divide his motherland. But he had no say about this regard. He knew that a great war was going to happen very soon but he wanted to delay it as possible. He had no grudge against his cousin Duryodhan. He truly loved him despite of his every fault. He forgave his every guilt as if it was his first. He thought that it was a 'hat' (stubbornness) of him. Bheem and Arjuna were against his patience but he wanted to be patient till end. His wife, Panchali, thought he was a coward for that. But in reality he was not a coward, just more mature than his cousin, Duryodhan.

"I want you to be a king. Hence I am dividing the state into two pieces and announcing you the ruler of the new state as fast as possible. I am very happy for you." King Dhritarasthra made a fake story of his happiness to his nephew.

But Yudhhisthir was no fool. He knew what his elder uncle thought of him. But he was not saying anything to him merely in respect. He knew that his uncle wanted to make his son the Prince of Hastinapur. Hence he tried to get rid of him and his brothers fast. He did the same thing at the time of Lakshagriha where Duryodhan tried to burn down the Pandavs and their mother, Kunti. He did nothing to punish his son nor did justice to his wrongdoings. He suppressed the truth every little bit using his royal power.

He lifted his eyes to his uncle to see his reactions. He had only one plus point against him: he could see him but not vice versa. A slight anxiety or uncomfortablity from his behalf was to be seen in his keen eyes. Uncle Bidur told him to closely watch the King's reactions. But till now he did not dicover any single sign of pain or excitement from his opponent's side. He was astonished to see that but not very surprised. He expected this same reaction from his 'Tatsree' (eldest uncle).

"I accept it whole-heartedly and I promise my brother's support too." He assured his uncle.

Old King Dhritarasthra looked quite relieved and said -

"Ayusman Vab (God bless you), Putro (son)."

He bowed his head and went away. He had to take advice of Lord Vasudeva as soon as possible.
....

"I think it is an excellent suggestion. I admit your guts, Bhratasree (elder brother)." Lord Krishna told him.

Arjuna and Bheem were not happy by hearing that they had to leave their motherland. But they did not want to oppose Lord Vasudeva. If he said that it was a good decision, then there must be some hidden good behind it. It was not the case that they were happy about it.

"Vasudeva, are you now mocking us?!! What good can come from it??!!"

The sudden question came from their wife, Draupadi who was Vasudeva's friend too.

"I am not mocking anyone, Krishna. I am praising brother Yudhhisthir for his patience and courage." With a big bright smile replied Lord Vasudeva.

"You are surely mocking me, Krishna. But I have nothing to do. Believe me." Yudhjisthir answered anxiously. He knew what his wife was thinking about him. He was a coward and did not dare to fight for his birthright.

Lord Vasudeva patted on his shoulder lovingly and told him assuredly -

"Relax, Bhratasree (brother). I am really praising you. You have outshine yourself this time. Go and grab the land. It will be your karmabhoomi (land to work)."

"But it will not be our matribhoomi, Keshav?" Draupadi asked him again.

He smiled again and narrowed his big eyes small in smile while saying -

"There is no big difference between them both, Panchali. You truly have to work on them both."
