Devasena, now back in health, cooks their meal. Amarendra helps her to cut the vegetables.

D: It's ok Ammu leave it I can manage.

A: No Devuu... you are doing it all by yourself let me do this.

Mahendra walks in with a pot of water from the well.

M: Actually you both should rest I can handle this.

D: Oh big man...he can handle it seems.. no need.. kitchen is my section I'll take care besides I wish to cook for my husband and son.

A: Great! ... here Devu this is done.

Deva cooks a scrumptious meal and they sit down to eat.

M: Amma amma amma !! Feed me feed me feed me!!!

Mahe acts like an impatient kid.

D: (giggles)Happa... ok ok fine.. come...

Devu feeds her son who eats greedily.

D: Sorry kanna, were you so hungry ??

M: No amma I am just relishing the food fed by you...I don't think even ambrosia would taste as good as eating food from your hand.

D: ☺️☺️

Ammu smiles seeing a motherly Devu bond with her son. He recalls a scene of his childhood when he is fed by his amma.

Si: Careful Baahu.. eat slowly or else you will choke here drink water..

D: Careful Mahe.. eat slowly else you will choke here drink this water..

Ammu gets reminded of his mother. He stops eating and looks down at his plate rolling the grains of rice in his fingers with tears in his eyes. This doesn't go unnoticed by Devu.

D: Mahe..

M: *Chomp chomp*.. Amma...

D: After lunch get the chariot ready. We are going out. Myself, you and nanna.

M: Ok amma but where ?

D: Outskirts of Mahishmati. To bring back Rajamatha Sivagami Devi.

Ammu looks up at Devu and she nods her head in approval.Ammu's pale face lights up.

D: Will you eat now atleast Ammu ??

Grinning, he happily finishes his meal. After lunch, he pulls out all his clothes and picks the best one draping it and parades infront of the mirror.

A: Devasena !! Mahendra!! How do I look ??

D: My Ammu is so handsome!!

She places a black from the kohl of her eyes on his cheek.

M: Wow nanna ! If we go out together now, all girls will be eyeing you not me.

Ammu blushes at the compliments he receives. Though he has aged and has an adult son nothing has changed in him he is still the same kid at heart.He hops around the hut like an excited puppy. Getting ready before everyone else, Ammu boards the chariot and waits for Mahe and Devu.

A: Devasena come soon ! Mahe quick !! (Caressing the head of the animal) Horse, horse... you have to go fast ok I want to see my amma!

D: (chuckles) Oohhh look at his excitement to bring back his mother.

M: (chuckles) Naturally amma... even I would react the same way if someone were to take me to you.

Mahe takes the reins of the chariot with his parents at the backseat he sets off to the outskirts.
