Chapter 94:
Drupad's Jest
Drupad, with a mischievous glint in his eye, approached the Pandavas, who were still reveling in the news of Draupadi's pregnancy. He couldn't resist the opportunity to tease his son-in-law's.
"You know," Drupad began with a teasing smile, "I must commend you all. It seems you've put in quite a bit of effort in ensuring Draupadi's pregnancies. I can only imagine how dedicated you've been."
The Pandavas exchanged embarrassed glances, their cheeks flushing with a mix of surprise and discomfort. Yudhishthira cleared his throat, trying to maintain composure, while Bhima, Arjuna, Nakula, and Sahadeva looked down, struggling to suppress their smiles.
Draupadi, witnessing the light-hearted teasing, blushed deeply but couldn't help but chuckle. She moved over to her father and wrapped her arms around him in a warm hug. "Oh, Father," she said, her voice tinged with affection, "you always know how to make things interesting."
Drupad patted her back gently, his eyes twinkling with fatherly pride. "Well, my dear, I'm just glad to see that you and your husbands are so happy and that the family is growing. It's wonderful to see the bond you share."
As Draupadi hugged her father, the Pandavas, though still blushing, couldn't help but feel a sense of camaraderie and shared joy. The teasing, while embarrassing, was a reminder of the close-knit family they were a part of.
Drupad's jest, though light-hearted, served to further strengthen the bonds between them. It was a moment of shared laughter and love, marking another chapter in their journey together as a family.
