The Sun And The Moon

Obsessed?

Divyanshi had a hard time sleeping because she wasn't used to sleep on extremely soft mattress. She was sharing room with Dushala, it was decided that after Dushala's wedding the room would be given to her.

"Morning, darling!" She said to Dushala in her morning voice.

"I don't get a word you say." Dushala stood in the balcony, "Come here!"

"Let me just lay here for a few minutes." Divyanshi whined.

"You will regret not seeing this!" Dushala grinned, "Your loss, I told you but you don't even-"

"Where?" Divyanshi sprinted to the balcony, "What? Where?"

"There! He is there!" Dushala pointed at Karn practising archery.

Divyanshi exhaled hard, "I don't want to see him. I thought you saw my love, my Taylor."

"Oh! As if you aren't obsessed with him!" Dushala mocked her.

"Me? Obsessed with him?" Divyanshi scoffed. She looked at him aiming at the dummy, his eyes were set on the dummy's head and in a blink the dummy fell on the ground with Karn's arrow in his head. "I guess."

"I knew it. I can't ever be wrong." Dushala smiled proudly.

"But don't tell anyone, please." Divyanshi realised that she confessed her feelings, "People aren't so chill about crush in this yug, you know. In mine they aren't too but here the matter is serious."

"The water is ready, Devi. You can bath." An helper said.

"Sure!" Divyanshi went to take a bath.

Dushala spent her time reading a book. As she was lying on her bed she heard a knock. "Yes?" She asked.

"May I?" She heard Draupadi's voice.

She turned back and saw her standing at the entrance of the room, "Of course!"

"Where is she?" Draupadi asked, "I thought she would be ready by now."

"She slept late and well, she woke up late so...you know," Dushala shrugged.

"Oh, yes I do!" Draupadi softly chuckled.

"Will you help me with the saree? I don't like this style much. I can barely move my legs." Divyanshi said walking out of the bathroom.

"That's because you did it incorrectly." Draupadi scolded her, "You must learn to drape a saree. I won't always be around you."

"Don't say that, ok?" Divyanshi slightly raised her voice, "God forbid such thing to happen!"

"Ok! What was that for?" Dushala mumbled, she was staring awkwardly at both of them as Draupadi helped Divyanshi with the saree.

"You won't get it if I say it." Divyanshi said to herself.

"Done! You can now walk easily." Draupadi looked at her her work with pride.

"It looks good. I gotta learn that." Divyanshi complimented.

"Angraj is waiting for you." An helper appeared at the door.

"You are leaving today?" asked Draupadi.

"Even I didn't know that." Divyanshi laughed.

"He is outside." The helper said.

"Yes, I am coming." Divyanshi said.

"All the best!" Dushala teased.

"Oh god!" Divyanshi chuckled.

"Why? What happened?" Draupadi asked, confused.

"She'll tell you." Divyanshi pointed to Dushala and followed the the helper outside. "Hello," she greeted Karn when she saw him.

"I look beautiful." He said, "No, I mean you look beautiful." He realised he messed up.

"You shouldn't take talking lessons from Duryodhan." Divyanshi laughed at his silliness.

"How did you know?" He asked.

"My ex did the same. It happens all the time." She replied.

"So, shall we leave?" He asked again.

"I guess but I didn't know we will go today." She said.

"We have to return before Rajkumari Dushala's wedding and it would take us time travel from here to Angdesh and then from Angdesh to back here." He explained, "It's best we go today."

"Yeah, right." She said, "I'll grab my stuff." She went inside the room but came back, "Aren't you gonna come with me? I ain't lifting those heavy bags."

"Ah! Yes." Karn quietly followed her inside. He greeted Draupadi and Dushala with respect and watched as Divyanshi packed her stuff.

Dushala passed smiles to Divyanshi to which she blushed. Draupadi on the other hand wasn't much in the favour of this. She didn't like Divyanshi going alone with Karn for days. Draupadi was like a caring mother for Divyanshi, while Dushala was more of an annoying bestie whom Divyanshi loved.

"Done! We can leave now." Divyanshi handed Karn a few bags and picked them up with ease.

Draupadi's eyes widened as she wondered if Divyanshi would ever get married in this yug.

"I am going miss you both a lot." Divyanshi group hugged them and left.

Karn followed her outside. He literally beaming with happiness as he watched her walk ahead of him. His heart was calm and face had a gorgeous smile. His body glowing like the sun with the cheerfulness of them both going to Angdesh.
