As this time the Pandavas forgot to knock the door, they knew it wasn't a scene they ever wanted to see.

They froze in their spot, unable to move any inch. It seemed like their entire world came crashing down.

Their breaths stucked inside their chest by the unpleasant view of Panchali wrapping her hands around Aryan's neck, who had his back to them.

Sahdev stumbled back, hitting with a showpiece which fell down creating a noise.

They observed the instant reflex of the two moving apart from each other, as if being caught and interfered in their supposed kissing session.

They noticed how Panchali and Aryan exchanged a look, as if they didn't expect any of the Pandavas to come and interfere with their moment.

"It's not what you guys are thinking-" Aryan tried to speak.

"It's not what?" Nakul asked, feeling the walls of his heart tightening.

"We spoiled your moment, didn't we?" Arjun stated, his voice was low and dangerously calm.

"Arjun-"

"It's Rajkumar for you." He chided. "I am not your friend that you can call me by my name."

Aryan inhaled a shaky breath, "Okay Rajkumar, you guys are misunderstanding here. We weren't -"

"You weren't found in the most intimate way with our wife." Bheem spoke. "Is this what you want to say?"

Yudhisthir never shifted his eyes away from Panchali, who stood their quite looking at another side, not caring to justify anything that happened.

His mouth felt dry. Didn't she regret having an intimate moment with Aryan?

Was it all right then? Were they really kissing each other?

A sudden pain in his chest gave a weirdly uncomfortable feeling.

The realization that his Yuvrani had been betraying him all along came like a whiplash to him.

"Rajkumar Aryan, we would very much like it if you go right now." The beholder of Dharm found himself ordering.

His voice was exceptionally low and calm, while his eyes were straight on her.

Aryan sighed heavily, as he looked at Panchali's face which was void of any emotions.

"Do not touch our wife." Nakul's stern voice stopped him from touching her arms, in an attempt to support her.

And without any other words, he moved out of the room to provide them with the much needed privacy, hoping things might be better.

As Panchali stood inside the room, aware of their gaze over her. Still she made no effort to look at them.

Her silence was like a slow poison, killing them from inside making it hollow from the unexpected betrayal.

"You're still quiet." It was just a statement passed by Yudhisthir.

She sighed heavily, "I am not in a mood to create a scene over here. Please, leave me alone."

"So that you can kiss your best friend?" Nakul taunted, though felt at worst for speaking like that to her.

She frowned in the distaste, shifting her eyes finally over them. "Excuse me?"

"Don't cross your limit, Nakul." She added, in a cold voice.

"Oh great. The one who crossed all the limits, now teaching me how to stop at my boundaries." He retarded back, scoffing at the irony.

A deafening silence fell over the room, which was chocking them slowly.
