Kaurvaki went to her bathtub, lifting her dress she dipped her foot into the tub but she was injured already and eventually fell on her side. Ashok was nearby so he caught her bridal style, he sat her down in the tub and called in her daasi's to help her bathe.

After some time Kaurvaki rested and her daasi's attended to other duties either in her chambers or in some other rooms of the palace.

Time Skip...

Ashok met with his mother after taking care of Kaurvaki, again. "ha ma, what is it you need me for?" Ashok questioned his mother. "Ashok, Son I have been thinking of this for a while and I'm not sure if you'd agree!" Rani Dharma started to say. "ma, whatever you want me to do, I'll agree to it!" Ashok stated. 

"I'm thinking of you getting married to Princess Kaurvaki!" Ashok looked back. "what? Me getting married to Kaurvaki!" Rani Dharma asked, "yes, and what's so bad about it? I've seen the way you look at her and how you take care of her not to mention you both have celebrated Karva Chauth and that's only for married couples, right!"

Ashok nodded. "right, but I'm still not sure, we have to ask Kaurvaki first!" "okay, ask her and if she agrees then we will set a date for the anniversary then wedding!" Dharma exclaimed. Ashok agreed.

He left his mother's chamber and was left in thought. 'my marriage to Kumari Kaurvaki, I'm so happy, I wonder if she would agree to marry me, I guess only time will tell!
