Arjun was shining brightly like a star, you may ask why? Well he was on their tower, looking out and then he saw a chariot with Dwarka's flag, what could have been better than that?

He immediately ran downstairs to inform his brothers, "Madhav is coming." He excitedly yelled.

Like a moon shining on full moon day, the faces of Pandavas lifted up.

They rushed to make arrangements to welcome their cousin and best friend. Even though they didn't have the best of facilities, not much food or even proper seats, their love made everything perfect.

Yudhishthir, along with his brothers, and Shubhangini in Sahdev's hands, stood at the doors to welcome Krishna.

They were surprised to see that Krishna had not come alone, along with him were a few more people and lot more kids.

Satyabhama, Kalindi, the wives of Krishna and almost all the children of Pandavas were present. Prativindhya, Shatanika, Sutasoma, Shrutsena, Shrutkarma, Abhimanyu, Yaudheya Suhotra, Sargava and Niramitra and Suthanu.

And along with them, there was Arjun's second wife, Uloopi with Iravan standing nearby.

Pandavas wrre speechless seeing their kids and Uloopi, "Thank you Madhav," Arjun said, his eyes were slightly moist.

"Well, I thought that Shubhagini might need some company, so I bought them." Krishna, the PanduPautras didn't have their mother, but Krishna made sure that they atleast get a glimpse of their fathers to remember for thirteen years.

"Who is Shubhangini?" Uloopi questioned, "and where is Krishnā Jiji?"

"Kalyani has left, not with her will, but she is not us and will never be with us again. And Shubhangini, she is our light in these dark times," Yudhishthir answered truthfully.

Everyone nodded in understanding, not asking more questions.

"Well, the only reason I am here is for her, so I am taking the kids out." Satyabhama, like a kid spoke and the charming aunt she guided all the kids out with Shubhangini and Suthanu in her arms.

"Sorry Krishna we don't have much to serve, but with what little we have, we offer it you." Yudhishthir spoke, handing out very little food.

The ladies looked at him, the Emperor of Aryavart was now forced to live like this the best warriors of Aryavart like this;

And the Supreme Empress gone, no idea where?

"Jyesth, my father, Suryadev has AkshayPatra, you must please him to obtain that." Kalinid suggested, "With it, not only you will have food to serve yourself, but you also get an opportunity to serve many sages and wanderers travelling from here."

Yudhishthir gave the thought a minute and nodded, it indeed was a good idea.

Arjun was standing behind, just looking at Uloopi. It had been years since he had met her, he didn't even have the privilege to meet their son. Only a small glimpse of what he saw few moments ago was his solace.

"Parth, why don't you show Uloopi around?" Krishna suggested and Arjun immediately walked forward, as if waiting for an opportunity.

"How are you?" Both asked together, "fine," And the couple spoke again.

Their eyes were moist with tears, the years of longing and yearning was now finally coming to an end.

"I missed you." Arjun said. "Me too." She replied.

The two held their hands, enjoying their moments in silence.

"Arya, promise me one thing. In these thirteen years, I do not wish for you to drown in vengeance. Sow the seeds of justice and reap it." She said, knowing how wrong revenge goes.

"She is so small," Sutasoma giggled and pinched her cheeks constantly. The boys, except Prativindhya laughed as they how squishy her cheeks were.

Suthamu, the youngest and only girl was sitting nearby staring at lovingly.

"Stop it Suta, it would be hurting her." Prativindhya said sternly, but the voice of 12 year old sounded very cute.

"I'm Prativindhya," He said, introducing himself.

"Pativinna." She repeated.

"Shatanika,"

Everyone cheered as she spoke all their names, and of course their baby sister's name, which was the only perfectly spoken one.

And that was how, the children of Pandavas found their best friend, neither of them knew what their relationship was, but they called it friendship, a love beyond anything.
