Chapter 68:
Naming the Twins
The palace was filled with joy and laughter as Draupadi and the Pandavas gathered to name their newborn twins. The room was adorned with flowers, and the fragrance of jasmine filled the air. The atmosphere was warm and tender as the Pandavas surrounded Draupadi, who held their precious children in her arms—a boy and a girl, born out of their deep love and unity.
Yudhishthira, the eldest, gently cradled the boy in his arms. "We shall name him Prativindhya," he said, his voice full of pride. "A strong name, one that will carry forward the legacy of our family."
Bhima, always the protector, stood beside Draupadi, looking at his daughter with tenderness in his eyes. "And she shall be named Suthanu," Draupadi added softly, her voice filled with motherly affection. "A name as graceful and beautiful as she is."
The Pandavas exchanged glances, their hearts swelling with joy and pride. This moment was a culmination of all their dreams and desires, and it had finally come to life. The sight of their children filled them with emotions they couldn't put into words—love, hope, and an overwhelming sense of completeness.
As Draupadi looked at her children, she couldn’t hold back her tears. Her happiness was beyond measure, and her heart was full. Yudhishthira, seeing Draupadi’s tears, wiped them away gently. "These are happy tears," she whispered, smiling through her emotions.
The other Pandavas were no less emotional. Nakula’s eyes glistened with unshed tears, while Sahadeva looked at the twins with awe, as if they were the most precious gifts the world had to offer. Arjuna & YUDHISHTHIRA, usually calm and composed, couldn’t help but let a few tears slip down his cheeks as well.
"We did it," Bhima said, his voice thick with emotion. "We’ve brought life into this world together."
Draupadi nodded, her heart overflowing with love for her husbands and her children. "Yes, we did. And together, we will raise them with all the love we have."
The Pandavas encircled Draupadi and the twins, forming a protective and loving bond around them. In that moment, nothing else mattered—only the love they shared and the new life they had created. The room was filled with the quiet sound of their happy tears, a symbol of the joy that now defined their lives.
The future was uncertain, but as long as they had each other, they knew they could face anything. With Prativindhya and Suthanu in their arms, the Pandavas and Draupadi felt a sense of completeness and hope for the days to come.
