"Why are you so nervous?" she asked in a playful tone. "Could it be that he... brought you here against your will?"
replied, trying to keep my tone steady.
"But why would he bring you to this palace? In middle of the forest.... Why not take you to the main palace in Dwarka?" she asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Oh... this was the nearst place, so he brought me here. We'll probably go to Dwarka soon. He has some work here for now."
"Well, while you're relaxing here, he probably won't return until tomorrow. He's at the main palace-it's quite far from here! So why don't you come with me to meet Princess Prapti? I wanted to see her, and you can meet her too! What are you going to do here all alone, anyway? I'll bring you back by sunset."
Not knowing how to refuse, I nodded before even thinking it through. As she started to leave, I suddenly remembered Krishna's warning: *"One mistake could make you lose this game.... Be very careful!"* But it was too late; she was already halfway to her horse, and without another thought, I followed her.
The palace was strangely quiet, with no guards in sight. I couldn't help but wonder why this grand palace was hidden here in the middle of the forest. Lost in thought, I was startled as Princess Shreya's voice snapped me back to reality."Hurry up! This horse may wait for us, but the sun won't... I need to bring you back too!" she said, gesturing for me to get on.
With her help, I climbed onto the horse behind her, gripping her shoulders as she took the reins. I was nervous, never having been on a horse before, which she noticed, and she reassured me with a calm smile. And so we began our journey.
Princess Prapti was staying in an outer palace of her kingdom, likely waiting for guests. Luckily, this meant we didn't have to go too far. The guards recognized Princess Shreya, so they didn't stop us. When we arrived, Princess Prapti greeted us with flowers, and I marveled at the place-it was like a movie set, but even more beautiful. The two princesses hugged, and after I introduced myself, they began talking about Krishna-how they imagined their lives with him after marriage, how eagerly they awaited the big day.... Princess Prapti even showed us a painting she had made of him, depicting the day he had come to them rescue on horseback. They chatted endlessly about Krishna, their excitement apparent in every word.
I couldn't help but feel a strange pang of jealousy. How could they both be so happy sharing Krishna? Finally, I couldn't resist asking, "Can I ask something, if you don't mind? Don't you feel jealous, with both of you marrying the same Krishna?"
They both responded at once, laughing, "If he were only one person, we'd be jealous. But he's more than that-he belongs to each of us individually!" I smiled at their response, but something still didn't feel right to me.
Before in my timeline, when I was alone with Krishna and his idol, I never felt this way... I never thought about him like sharing him with someone or like...., yet seeing how these women cherished him so deeply stirred something inside me. They were learning new skills and dedicating themselves entirely to him, while I... I couldn't even manage to get up early for him. Lost in these thoughts, I didn't realize when their conversation ended.After a loving farewell from Princess Prapti, we mounted the horse and set off once more. Everything was going smoothly until we heard the sudden sound of horses' hooves in the distance. Within moments, a group of armed men appeared, galloping toward us. Before we could react, an arrow whizzed past, lodging itself in a tree nearby. I panicked, cursing Krishna for putting me in this situation while at the same time desperately wishing he were here.
We managed to avoid the soldiers for a while, but darkness had fallen, and they were still chasing us. Even Princess Shreya didn't seem to know who they were. Suddenly, the horse lost its balance in the dark, and we both tumbled to the ground.
She quickly turned to me and said, "Head west to that cave. I'll meet you tomorrow. I need to save this horse and myself too, or we'll both be caught! Together ...Let's distract the army"
Before I could agree or protest, she rode off in the opposite direction, leaving me to head for the cave as she had instructed , she did some blast and ran off in other direction.i also ran in cave direction, but the forest was dark and eerie, and I was completely disoriented. Trembling with fear, I took cautious steps toward the cave when, suddenly, I felt someone grabbed me from the shadows and pull me into the darkness of cave like structure......
