Changing Destiny

13.

We were ready to go. I told them to go outside first since I saw tear buliding in Radha maa eyes.

I hugged her than I told her not to be so sad. I will come to see you. "You will only come to see her back not me " baba said while standing with arms crossed near us.

I hugged him too,"of course not, I will also come to see you but it's time to go."

I leave there embrace and motion come with me to the door. I leave with my mother and brother after taking their blessings by touching there feet.

This chariot is big enough for six people. Arjun is sitting at chariot place. Maa took my hand and went with me towards the carriage. There were two rows of seats three persons per seat.

Bheem, Nakul and sehdev are sitting in back. There weapons are with them. Arjun sitting at chariot position in front but his bow and arrows are placed near him ready for any attack with me , yudhishthir and mata kunti in middle seat.

This looks like formation ready for any attack why they are so alert from their bones. May be it's is related to the enmity between these cousins. They all were always fighting with each other.

I have noticed them in gurukul of dronacharya when I was his student but I always kept to my self in ashram. They always fought due to sudden changes maybe.

Bheem and duryodhana were always at eachothers neck since  poisoning incident kheer given by Kauravas. It was like a adding fuel to fire. I think there is more to this matter than everybody sees.

Nakul and sahadev are teasing Bheem over little matter. They are teasing each other over small matter while whispering but warriors have sharp ears.

When there banter started to get intensified yudhishthir looked at them and said," talk lightly don't show any bad character in front of jyestha on first day. I am afraid he will get annoyed with us since he never had siblings before.

He may think we are being rude and make him comfortable with yourself first ok. So you know he will not think we are being mean or something. Since our relationship is very delicate. So be good."

He said in very whispering tone to them while leaning back towards if I have not good ears like this i would have not noticed. I all whispered "ok brother."

I am really thankful they are good brothers and have strong bond with each other. Maybe it's due to their always opposition from their cousins.

Finally we reached the hastinapur palace. We passed through three gates to get to main palace. I would have thought there is something serious going on because if their are more than 100 people looking at you serious face. You will also think so.

Maa introduced to me oldest pitamah Bhishma, guru dronacharya, saint kripacharya, uncle Dhritshartar, aunt Gandhari, uncle vidur. I touched all of there feet for blessings.

Yudhishthir introduced to my cousin they are alot to be true. Duryodhana, dhushashan, vikarna and others. They all thouched my feet since I older than them all.

Ashwathma came hugged him. Since he was his friend in ashram. He have been longest time friend with him.

"Long time no see friend. Where have you been?" He said.

"Long time no see Ashwathma. I studied from lord parshuram after leaving ashram."

Hi there are alot of cousins in this book but we will stick mainly with these three.

Karna studied with them untill he was around 18 or 19. So ofcourse he knows them but you can't say same for them the Pandavas and Kauravas they all had their conflicts going on so they never cared about others in ashram.
