Bharati~ The Queen Mother In Making

Chapter 27

"We shouldn't discuss about past, Arya and Bhadrey. Chitrangada and her son came for first time. They should get all our love and attention. We can't change the past but these thoughts will distract us each and every moments. Bhabruvahana is also our son. We should be happy thinking that at least one son is alive."- Draupadi told in one breath entering inside of their chamber.

Arjun and Subhadra looked at Draupadi who had no facial expression.

Subhadra: Pranipat Jiji. You are right. Maybe we will find our lost sons in him.

Draupadi: Hmm. Now, come to take food. Everyone is waiting for both of you.

Arjun and Subhadra nodded and they went with Draupadi to dining room. Pandavas, Bhabruvahana, Parikshit were there. Bhabruvahana became their favourite in a short time and pandavas were also happy seeing their nephew and Parikshit was also happy getting his father figure uncle. Bhabruvahana was sharing his experiences with Parikshit who was not less than his own son for him. He was also learning tactics from pandavas. Uttara got a friend in his beloved wife padmini who was just some years elder than her. Kunti was also happy seeing her only grandson.

Draupadi, Subhadra and Ulupi was serving food to everyone. Chitrangada went to dhritrastra and Gandhari to serve them. After the war, they never came to eat with everyone.

Suddenly, Subhadra noticed that Bhabruvahana was not eating.

Subhadra: What happened son? Why are you not eating? Didn't you like the food?

Bhabruvahana: I think it's very delicious but I can't eat this now.

Subhadra: Why putra? Any problem?

Ulupi: Why are you saying this my son? Your mothers made food for you with so much affection.

Bhabruvahana: But mother, how can I eat before my mothers? At first, you all will eat. Then I will.

Subhadra: But how can mothers eat before her son? You eat then we will.

Bhabruvahana: Then mata you all also sit na. Your daughter in laws are there to serve us. Today my 4 mothers will feed me and I will also feed them.

Bhabruvahana smiled and he himself served food for his mothers. Arjun and his wives were also smiling.

Arjun: So, my son forgot me getting his mothers. Uff... I am so unlucky. *Fake sadness*

Draupadi: Look at our dramatic husband, sisters.

Subhadra: Arya, don't dare to come between mothers and son. *Fake glares*

Arjun laughed.

Bhabruvahana: No pitashree. How can I forget my father? But my mothers are starving and I will feed you at night.

Arjun: As you wish my son.
