**Chapter 163: Letters and Laughter**
As Draupadi busied herself with adjusting her saree, the Pandavas noticed that she seemed more focused on her task than on their teasing. They exchanged amused glances and whispered among themselves, their voices low but filled with mirth.
“Look at her, so absorbed in her writing,” Yudhishthira murmured with a chuckle.
“It seems our playful punishment hasn’t distracted her as much as we thought,” Nakula added with a grin.
“She’s quite the multitasker,” Sahadeva said, his eyes twinkling with amusement.
Arjuna, leaning in, said softly, “Let’s see how she responds to our next move.”
Draupadi, her attention now on the letter she was writing to the kingdom, chuckled at their whispers. Her laughter was light and filled with mischief as she penned her thoughts. She seemed to be thoroughly enjoying the moment, her earlier composure replaced by a playful demeanor.
Finishing her letter, Draupadi looked up with a teasing smile. “It seems you gentlemen are in need of a bit more attention,” she said, her voice laced with amusement.
With that, she leaned in and planted soft, affectionate kisses on each of their cheeks. Her lips lingered for a moment, a gesture that conveyed both her affection and playful spirit. The Pandavas were caught off guard but responded with warm smiles, their earlier teasing giving way to genuine appreciation of her gesture.
The room filled with a gentle warmth, the atmosphere now lighter and more relaxed. The playful dynamic between them continued, underscoring the deep bond and affection that defined their relationship.
