Arjun and Draupadi started their  journey, Draupadi started to feel tired after sometime but she didn't tell Arjun. After sometime Arjun stopped.

"What happened?" Draupadi asked, tiredly.

Arjun didn't say anything and took her in his arms.

"Why this?" She asked.

"You were walking with the speed of  a koala, so I thought I should better get the koala clinged to me." He grinned.

"Did you just call me a koala?" She said in annoyance.

"No, I didn't but you're clinged to me." He said, smirking. He added, "Koalas are very cute. Like really very cute. Aren't you cute?"

"Let me down!!!!" She urged.

"Okay, I was joking. You're tired, aren't you?" He asked, smilingly.

"Yes but wouldn't--" she was interrupted by him.

"That's all," he said and resumed walking.

"But... Aren't you tired?" She asked.

"No," he said.

"Liar." She said.

"I'm not lying, trust me." He smiled.

"Where are we going?" Draupadi finally asked.

"I don't know." Arjun replied.

"Sounds good." She laughed.

"I know right!" He laughed along.

After walking some  more miles, they found a hut of an old couple.

"What do you think?" Arjun asked.

"It's almost night, maybe we can have a stay here, they seem sweet."

"Kinda. Let's go, see." Arjun said.

.

"Sorry, we did not understand anything." The old man said.

Arjun rolled his eyes, it was the third time he was explaining and still he didn't understand.

"Let me try." Draupadi said.

"Of course," Arjun said.

Then Draupadi started to explain that why they need to stay there for the night.

"Oh now I get it! You should have told me this earlier. Come on, we'll be glad to have you two at our place!"

Arjun sighed, what was he trying to do from the past half hour?

"What did you say that he understood you but not me?" Arjun asked Draupadi.

"I don't know. Maybe because I am more sweeter than you?" She giggled.

"Sure sure." He laughed in reply.

They changed into the normal clothes from there royal attire.

"Aunty let me help you," Draupadi said.

"Aha, no putri, you're a princess." Said the old lady.

"So does that mean I can't help you?" She smiled and started helping the old lady.

"But you are---"

"Oh you talk too much and have to many ifs and buts, I'm not having any problem so why do you have?" Draupadi smiled.

"Okay."

Arjun was talking with the old man when Draupadi walked past him.
