Karna and sikhandini are walking in the corridor in order to reaching bhavan of rajmata.... There was a awkward silence, karna want to enquire her regards duryodhan...

Karna: you're not mute right? Talk something.......

Sikhandini: what you're expecting magadhraj?

Karna: Devi, you know what I'm upto....

Sikhandini: I'm enough to sense about it. But, I don't have any answers for your's or your friend's unasked questions.....

Karna: satyajit told about you being in turmoil since, I guess you need to talk to duryodhan....

Sikhandini: There is no need for that king, I'm enough clear and steady in my decisions.....

Karna: You may can tell like that, A warrior shouldn't dump her emotions, don't bottle up it. It may make you feel weak..... Just talk in persons and clear everything. I'm not forcing you, but an suggestion with concern......

Sikhandini: Thanks for your suggestion....

Karna: My mitr need a bit of happiness in his life, Atleast a good companion who will concern about him, who took care of him..... Since childhood being eldest for 100 siblings, son of King, tagged as bad omen, neglected by own family members..... He have faced many things which is big for him in that tender age. He managed to look over his youngers but there is no one for him. He need nothing but a person who will support him, beside him everytime, person to shower love and care on him. He deserves that.......

If you don't like this marriage please tell it to him in first place, I guess you're enough matured, try to avoid creating scenes... I don't want my friend to bear another heart break....

Sikhandini: can you do me a favour?

Karna: what?

Sikhandini: please inform prince duryodhan to meet me by evening... In my bhavan.....

Karna: Are you serious?

Sikhandini: Don't worry, nobody will say anything. Satyajit too was there....

Karna: As you wish.... Once again if anything turned at last minute king of panchal need to face me in battleground I'm not only his friend also a brother figure, I will dare to do anything for him....... Clear the misunderstandings and opinions at this point, that will be better......

Sikhandini: you can't threaten like that king, even panchal has some experienced warriors......

Karna: Yeah, and your king is using them as his shield and hiding behind it..... Coward....

Karna muttered his last word, Here sikhandini closed her eyes in fustration... She knew it is true to some extent....

Sikhandini: This is rajmata's bhavan, let me leave......

Sikhandini left the place before karn could react anything........

__________________________

Duryodhan: Mitr, you literally threatened her.....

Karna: Threatening is for people who will fear, it's irrelevant for princess of panchal.....

Duryodhan: still you shouldn't......

Karna: By evening go to satyajit's bhavan, she need to talk with you.....

Duryodhan: what!!!!!!

Karna: yes....

Duryodhan: But.....

Duryodhan was unsure about it, but still his heart says him to go... He gulped seeing karna who's glaring on him.....

Karna: Just go with due respect, before I say something......

Duryodhan: okay okay.......

Sikhandini is forwarding towards her chamber witnessing the setting sun...... Her trance gets a break sensing an unusual scene infront of her...... She saw Nivashini coming in anthetical, it's not like she cared but her face expressed uneasiness and nervous...... She too saw sikhandini and went towards her hurriedly.....

Sikhandini: what happened?

She asked with her emotionless voice, but Nivashini is in no way to answer as she is panting heavily.... A unfamiliar footsteps neared them making Nivashini to flinch, sikhandini leaned her heads to notice  prince of some country......

Sikhandini: who's that?

She went near the person who's a young boy, he stumbled for her questions and managed with his blabbers. At last she sent him way with warning.......

Nivashini sighed hard in relief and went near sikhandini hugging her from side, venting out her fear through tears.... Sikhandini startled at her action but she is confused and turmoiled between whether she should comfort her or not............
