Hii to all my lovely readers... Doesn't want to put you in cliffhangers, so updating the parts sooner than later... 😘😘😘

Urvi had told Pitamah the greatest secret of the era, that Karna is the eldest son of Queen Kunti. She looked at him in horror. She didn't have to disclose it, but as it has been revealed, let face the consequences.

Pitamah was shocked for a moment. And then in his grave voice said the words she hadn't expected at all.

Pitamah- You know about it????

What!!!! This is not the reaction I have expected from Pitamah she thought. He is behaving like he had told her a secret.

Urvi (open-mouthed)- You already know about it Pitamah... How???

He was silent. She couldn't contain his silence. She rushed towards him and hold his hand.

Urvi(crying)- Please Pitamah! Please tell me what you know. I beg of you. Please.

Pitamah was moved by her.

Pitamah- Yes, I know, he's the Jyesta Kaunteya and my eldest Grandnephew.

Urvi- How??? When???

Pitamah- From the moment I first saw him.

Urvi- in the tournament???

Pitamah- No. It was long time ago. And when I said at that day to give Sadbuddhi to all my kinsmen, Karna was also included in it. He is also one of mine.

She looked quizzically at him.

Pitamah- I had known him from his childhood. When he came with Adhirath. (Again himself-speaking mode). I saw him and I could see the glow and radiance from his face and know that he is not some ordinary boy. Growing up he insists that he would be my charioteer, not professional but just for fun. In his teens whenever he got chance he sneaks and boards in my chariot and say, 'Today, I will be your charioteer, Mahamahim.'  He was that boy. Innocent, guileless(nischal) child.

I remember the day when Dronacharya rejected him for being his disciple(shishya).

Urvi (getting desperate)- Then why didn't you tell him that Karna's a royal born. That he is one of the prince he had been appointed to teach. And why he wasn't acknowledged as Hastinapur prince???

Pitamah looked at her as if calculating how much to tell her.

Pitamah(gravely)- Do Karna knows about it???

Urvi (shaking her head)- No Pitamah. He doesn't.

Pitamah- And how do you get to know when no one else knows this secret of Karna???

Urvi doesn't know how to answer him. Could she tell him that she is from future??? No Govind had already warned her not to do it. So by omitting the truth, she lied. And said only one word.

Urvi- Govind!

Pitamah- Why would he tells you???
Urvi- I don't know... I have no idea, he said something about birth and rebirth... And that I was destined for someone.. I don't know who.. but I know only one thing. It's Karna for me and no one else.

He nodded. Urvi tried to steer the conversation back to Karna.

Urvi(desperately)- So why didn't you tell anyone about Karna???

Pitamah(testingly)- Do you know about Kunti too???

She nodded looking somewhere else.

Urvi- Yes I know. Do you??? (Not sure if they were speaking on same terms).

Pitamah started pacing in the chamber. As if trying to think deeply about everything. He also have same hesitations so he asked again for confirmation.

Pitamah- Do you know of Karna's birth???

Urvi- Yes, I know Pitamah. I know how Suryadev had given his 'amsha' (ansh) to Kunti maa and how she get with the child. How she abandoned her innocent child and , she put him a basket and float it in river Ganga, when she should be the one protecting him. It's because of her childish behaviour she conceived him and Karna was facing her consequences. Again unfair.

Pitamah- Do you know how old was putri Kunti when she gave birth to Karna???

Urvi- No???

Pitamah- She was only thirteen.
(I exactly don't know about it, and if it's different do tell me, I tried to google it but it only said teenage).

Urvi didn't know that. She doesn't know many things about this age and it's norm.

Urvi- Then why do you let King Pandu marry her???

Pitamah- I was the one who selected Putri Kunti for Pandu. And took him to her Swayamvar.

Urvi was shocked. There are so many secrets hidden inside Everyone she doesn't know. She have not seen the mythology programs in television and now with no internet she still was unknown to all the facts.

Urvi- But you didn't know at that time she already has a son???

Pitamah- No.

Urvi- What happened at the Swayamvar???

Pitamah- Kunti asked everyone a question. And she only found Pandu's answer right.

Urvi- What was that question???

Pitamah- she asked that, "Gautam Rishi cursed his wife Ahilya for losing her purity with Indra but Shri Ram freed her from her curse. How it is Dharma then???"

Urvi- What did he say???

Pitamah- He says that Indra came in the form of Gautam Rishi and made Ahilya impure and it's not her fault. He says that she is pure from heart and that's the reason Shri Ram relieved her of her curse.

Kunti got happy and put Varmala on Pandu's neck.

Urvi- Then how did you find it???

Pitamah- Her question intrigued me, why would someone ask such a strange question. So I tried to get the truth.

Urvi- How???

Pitamah- Where did Kunti abandoned Karna???

Urvi- In river Ganga???? 

Pitamah- And why do you think people called me Gangaputra Bheeshma???

Urvi(open-mouthed)- She told you the secret???

Pitamah- No! My mother would never betrays anyone's secret. But long years ago, when Karna was found in Hastinapur by Adhirath and Radha, I asked her the place where it had been flown in the river.

Urvi- And she told you??

Pitamah- Yes. It was from the kingdom of Kuntibhoj. But back then I didn't know it was Kunti's son. So after their marriage it was difficult to put facts. I went to Kuntibhoj's palace and got to know discreetly that at a very long time ago Rishi Durvasa had visited. I had gone to the Rishi and he told after my insistent that he had given boon to Kunti of getting divine sons without losing her purity and chastity.

Urvi- But why didn't Kunti maa acknowledged Karna??? How can it be that they reside in the same kingdom and don't know that her eldest son is here???
