As Subhadra bid farewell to her childhood home in Dwarka, she felt a mix of emotions: excitement for the new journey ahead, yet apprehension about reuniting with her co-wife Draupadi in Indraprastha. The past year, spent with her husband Arjun in Pushkar, had been a blissful days but now reality beckoned. As the chariot wheels turned, carrying her away from the familiar shores of Dwarka, Subhadra's heart ached with longing for her beloved family, especially her brothers Krishna and Balram. Their guidance and support had been her rock, and their absence now felt like an unbridgeable chasm. With each passing mile, her anxiety grew, wondering how she would navigate the complexities of her new life, and find her place alongside Draupadi.

Arjun saw that Subhadra was worried. He knew why. He smiled and gently took her hand. She stopped thinking about her worries and looked at him. His kind eyes made her feel better. She felt happy that he understood her and cared about her feelings. Arjun's touch made her feel safe and loved.

Arjun: (smiling) "What's troubling you, my love? You've been quiet since we left Dwarka."

Subhadra: (sighing) "I just miss my family, especially bhrata Krishna and Balram. And I'm nervous about meeting maharani draupadi"

Arjun: (gently) "You have me now. I'm your family too. And as for Draupadi, she's my wife, but you're my love. You're the one I cherish."

Subhadra: (smiling slightly) "You always know what to say to make me feel better."

Arjun: (taking her hand) "That's because I love you, Subhadra. You're my everything. We'll face whatever comes together, okay?"

Subhadra: (nodding, her eyes shining with tears) "Okay. I love you too, Arjun."

Arjun: (pulling her close) "I love you more with each passing day."

They share a tender embrace, their love and connection palpable.

With each passing day, his affection for her grew, like a flame that burns brighter with every tender moment they shared. Her smile, a radiant sunrise that illuminated his world; her words, a gentle breeze that soothed his soul; her love, a boundless ocean that he eagerly drowned in. Her kindness, a virtue that humbled him,  great warrior, and transformed him into a devoted lover. With each soft peck on her forehead, his heart beat faster, surrendering to the beauty of their love."

Indraprastha,

     
            Yudhishthir - " Devika, what happened? Is everything alright? "

Devika was standing with Valandhara.

          Devika looked at him with worried eyes and told " We tried to console jiji but she was too hurt and angry to listen. She asked us to leave her chamber, her voice cold and distant.

            Valandhara - jyesth, Princess Subhadra along with devar Arjun will soon reach Indraprastha .  But jiji was angry at them.

Yudhishthir gazed at his brothers to make the arrangements for their arrival.

They nooded and left .

Nakul was busy checking the arrangements when Karenumati approached him she would be able to understand that he is sad, concern etched on her face. Just then, Nakul's grip on the flowers in his hand relaxed, and they began to slip from his fingers. Karenumati quickly grasped his hand, steadying it. As their eyes met, Nakul's gaze lingered on hers, a flicker of surprise and gratitude passing between them. The flowers, now safe, seemed to symbolize the fragile emotions they both sought to protect.

Karenumati - Arya, You face is sad!! Your brother is returning home. But you're worried .

Nakul: "I don't know what's going to happen when bhai returns home with his new bride. How will Draupadi react? And how will bhai convince her? This is going to be a difficult situation."
