Narayan was there laying in his usual pose on Sheshnaag when Mata Lakshmi interrupted him

"Swami, you granted Draupadi and Arjun another birth in Kalyug so that they can have the life they deserved but up till now I can't see anything happening which will lead them to each other. How is your words going to be true then?" She asked out of curiosity.

Narayan smiled at Mata Lakshmi's question. He replied

"You need not worry, I granted them another birth not only to give the life they deserved, but also I have something planned for them. Just enjoy the events as they unfold."

The phone buzzed, it was time to wake up but the girl turned around, still deep in sleep. The birds chirped, but the girl was still dreaming about...

"Paarth! Paarth! Paarth!! Don't you remember?"

The door opened, the boy moved forward to grasp something, girl turned around facing him but she was till moving along with the crowd outside of the metro, quickly untying the Kalawa on her right hand

"My name is"

With the Kalawa in her right hand, she tossed it to the boy in hopes he would catch, which he did and she yelled at the same time

"Krishnaa!!"

The girl startled by the dream woke up. Her hair shelved and heavy breathing, indicated that the dream was sort of a nightmare. More accurately, something totally unexpected, something which revoked some sort of memory.

She was not quite herself this morning. As if being that body, room and place was something astonishing for her. She turned her head, inspecting the room. Seeing where all her things were kept.

She blinked, three to two times, not believing that she was there in that place. Her hands cupped her own face, inspecting it too. She stared at her own body, blankly as if being in that body was something out of a dream.

She caressed her own lips, that's when her little her sister, Roohi opened the door of her room, who looked at her questionably and asked her

"Sis, what are you doing?"

But she ignored her sister's question, and mummered to herself

"Whoa, they are such a realistic feeling." Suddenly aware of the question put by her sister, she turned towards her sister, even though she can't quite remember being an elder sister so she questioned

"Sis, me? while ponting a finger towards her.

Annoyed by her sister's estranged behaviour, Roohi said

"Are you still asleep? Breakfast time! Hurry up!" And slammed shut the door of her sister's room. Tiredly, she went towards to the mirror and saw that this wasn't a dream and yelled

"What?!"

The next morning, Krishnaa all dressed up for her college joins her Naani Ma and Roohi at the dining table for breakfast.

"Do you want some last night's veggies, Naani Maa?" Roohi asked.

"You can have it."

"Morning"

Krishnaa said taking her place the dining table only to be warmly welcomed by Roohi, who said

"Lazy butt, you're so slow."

"I am sorry for today. I'll make breakfast tomorrow." Was all what Krishnaa replied and started serving herself. Naani Maa noticed at that she was alright today and said
