She called Arjun for support as she couldn't stand for a long time. When Arjun came he couldn't help but was amazed at her beauty , her hair which was still wet was sticking to her face, the saree was highlighting her figure. Wearing that pink saree ehe was looking like a rose petal with fresh dew on them. Naina furrowed her eyebrows ' why is he standing there like a statue'.

Arjun came to her, naina tied her still wet hair with a band. He didn't say anything and carried her in his arms. Naina wa surprised at his smooth actions. Arjun quickly got out of that place , they reached a somewhat smooth road. There was a carva passing by. Sonal gestured her hands to stop it. The cart walking ahead stopped. A lady came out wearing the dress usually Banjaras wear . Looking at their somewhat weird but familiar dresses the lady asked -"aap kun ho saa" (who are you).
Naina replied -"yaatri chhu". (Travelers).

Naina told her "we come from other country but were robbed on the way and I was injured ". She used the same old plot. The lady looked her up and down. She welcomed them into the carva. Arjun picked up naina again , the lady smiled and his arbitrary actions.
When sonal sat inside the lady said -"your husband is very nice". Naina smiled . The lady said " do you have any relatives here". Naina nodded her head "we are going to jodhpur".
The lady was surprised "we are also on that way , you can come with us".

Naina smiled happily nudging Arjun beside her , Arjun also gave a polite smile. Naina and the lady hot it off instantly. Naina met the children of the Banjaras , they were all so cute. Naina played with them . Arjun said "child playing with child". Naina pouted her mouth she pinched his hands . Arjun didn't react Naina looked at the mail marks on his hands and said "you are not human".

When they reached a bustling place . Naina wa looking out with curiosity, the sarees and dresses they were wearing were so beautiful. Naina saw a beautiful lady and bushes Arjun to look at her. Arjun looked at that direction but didn't give much attention to the lady and turned his face back. He leaned towards naina " it's improper to stare at people like that". Naina said "I am a girl".

In the evening the carva stopped at a safe place. The ladies took out heir utensils to cook. Men were sitting on mat. Naina was looking intently at the ladies cooking. She stood up and said -"I am also going to try." Arjun supported naina and sat back down.
Arjun looked at her direction. The other men teased him "don't need to look at her so intently , she is already your wife". The other men laughed.
Arjun couldn't tell them that he was not so lucky to get her .

He smiled. Naina said to the lady " can I cook top ". The lady said -" we will just make it for you".
Naina said " i want to cook for my husband ". The lady gave her a teasing smile. Naina was cooking on chulha for first time . The first roti she made burned but the others were good.

When the food was cooked naina couldn't stand up so she sat there while other ladies served food to men . The lady when giving food to Arjun said-" your wife cooked it for you."
Arjun looked towards naina who was sitting far away. She smiled at him Arjun quickly turned his face down hiding his shyness.

After everyone ate they set up a few tents for each family. There were total three families. Since naina and Arjun were also there an extra tent was set up by them. Naina and Arjun were lying on each corner . Naina changed her wounds dressing. It hurted less now.

Naina lied down the night was so quiet she felt a bit cold. She covered herself with her pallu. Then she remembered Arjun . She moved a bit closer and also covered him with her pallu. Arjun looked surprised but he didn't remind that he has the ring.
