Dhani prayed to the Lord for twelve years to get a husband. The Lord granted her wish. But instead of one she got five. Aatreya, Bali, Mithun, Manan and Aanan are the five brothers, who are her destined husbands, who will shower her with love. She...
After breakfast, Aatreya goes to the field with Manan, while Bali and Aanan are still in the house.
Bali : Wife, can I sleep with you tonight?
Aanan heard him from a distance. He comes to Dhani, smirking.
Aanan : Wife, can I sleep with you too?
Bali : What? You must've been sleeping with her every night when I was not here.
Aanan : Ah! You are right, brother. I slept with her every night. I kissed her every night when you were not here. She enjoyed my company every night. Every night, I touched her w…
Dhani : (flustered) Stop it. Shouldn't both of you go and help your elder brother? He came back and immediately started working with people.
Bali's expression saddens. He pouts like a child. His expression is making Aanan laugh hard in his mouth. He turns away to avoid laughing out loud. Bali scratches his head.
Bali : Wife, I want to sleep with you tonight. I will kiss you, accompany you and … and.. what else did you do?
Aanan : I? I touched her…
Dhani : (shouts) You two, go and help your elder brother. Go exert your energy there.

Aatreya : Good work everyone. We are well prepared for the monsoon. Now let's restructure the canals to better facilitate water flow in our farms.
"Hail our Chief. Hail our Chief."
Aanan and Bali reach there.
Manan : Chief, Aanan did a great job in our absence.
Aanan : Thank you brother.
Aatreya : Is that so?
Manan : Yes Chief. He always told others what to do and so they did. He delegated all his responsibility to the Ministers and the Ministers guided the farmers and labourers while he stayed in the home to avoid working in sun and mud.
Aanan looks away.
Aatreya : (seething) Go in the field and guide the farmers.
Aanan scowls.
Bali : Brother, his delicate skin will get burned in the sun. Hahaha.
Aatreya : (authoritative) Go Aanan.
Aanan goes in the field.
Bali : Let me help with this.
"No Prince Bali!!!"
Bali : What?
Aatreya : Don't apply too much strength on it.
Bali : When did I ever do that?
Manan : You never did that?
Bali and Manan lock eyes. Bali, then, lowers his eyes.
Aanan : Here, let me help too.
Villager : You will also do it Prince Aanan? But, you avoid sunlight.
Aanan : Yes. But it's shining mildly today. Little sun does not hurt my shining skin.
Aanan usually avoids direct sunlight because he thinks he will get pigmentation on his skin.
The sunlight falls on his face which is half covered with a mask. The sunrays touch his spousal mark and it starts to glow firey.
"What…what is happening on Prince's face?"
"Is it some kind of divine energy? It looks like fire is burning on his face."
"Isn't that his spousal symbol?"
Aatreya, Bali and Manan look at Aanan. Aanan notices that everyone is looking at him.
Aanan : Huh? Why are you all looking at me like that? (scowls) Do I look funny working in mud?
Aatreya : Your spousal mark is glowing.
Aanan : What?
He touches his spousal mark.
Aanan : Really? I thought it only glowed in the moonlight.
Manan : What? It glowed in the moonlight?
Aanan : Yes. It glows blue in the moonlight. I did not get the chance to show you that. Hey! What colour is it glowing in the sunlight?
Manan : Bright orange like fire.
Aanan : (excited) Wow. It must look enchanting. My spousal mark glows in sunlight as well. Hehehe.
He goes to the nearby canal to see his reflection. He removes his mask. The villagers come rushing to see his face. Each one of them goes in complete amazement to see his face with five glowing petal marks.
"Look at our Prince. Even gods cannot match his attractive appearance."
"Wow, he looks like a being descended from heavens. He is so handsome."
"Queen must love him the most. That's why she bestowed him with glowing spousal marks. I can keep looking at him all day and night."
Bali frowns. He comes in the sunlight and checks his spousal mark. It doesn't glow.

The night approaches. Dhani is lighting up the dias in the gallery. Bali comes to her, frowning his eyebrows.
Bali : Wife?
Dhani : Yes?
Bali : I want to ask you something?
Dhani : What is it?
Bali : Do you still love me?
She is surprised by his question but his childlike expressions are making her laugh. She holds it in.
Dhani : Why do you ask this question suddenly?
Bali : I did that…I hurt you, while my brothers cherished you. Do you still love me?
Now, she understands his concern. She wraps her arms around his big chest, puts her chin on it and looks in his eyes.
Dhani : Don't you see love in my eyes?
Bali : I see. Then……why doesn't my spousal mark glow?
She lowers her head and laughs out loud. Her laugh brings a smile on his lips.
Bali : Are you making fun of me?
Dhani : Oh! My innocent hubby. Hahaha.
She explains to him in detail why Aanan's mark glows. He feels a relief that Aanan is not the most loved husband of hers. In his mind he is still keeping the first place to himself.
The night has darkened now. Although she tries to keep a distance between them, she can feel how he is desiring her. He has been apart from her for almost two months.
Bali : It's late. Let me take you to your room.
He looks into her eyes. She gulps. Passion is heavy in his eyes. He lifts her up. She wraps her hands around his neck. He walks in her room and stands a few steps away from her bed. After a long pause he asked
Bali : Wife if you don't mind can I sleep with yo….
Dhani : (shy) Come. I can't tell him to go now.
Bali puts her down on the bed, smiling wide. He sits down on the bed, putting his muscular arms on either sides of her.
