Aadhya Strength Of Pandavas novel Chapter 8

AADHYA'S POV

After talking to kakashree vidur for sometime mata kunti called us near her, we all went and said "jii mata", mata said "this hastinapur is your home and from now on it's your dharma to listen, respect and serve pitamah bhishma, tatshree dhritarasht and jesth mata gandhari and you have hundred brothers and one more sister and loving them and respecting their love towards you is your duty and you guys are not jij's hundred son and one daughter and my five sons one daughter you guys are kuruvansh's hundred and seven brothers and sisters". We all smiled and nodded and walked towards the gate of our new home.

We came near the gates to see pitamah bhisma, tatshree dhritarasht and jest mata gandhari, mata kunti went towards pitamah and took his blessing and soon one by one we all followed her and took everyone's blessings and jesth mata took mata kunti to pooja ghar and we walked towards raj bhavan with the attendants. On the way bharata bheem teased one of them making us laugh and bharata yudhishthir stopped us saying its enough and called the attendant who ran away, bharata bheem asked one of the attendant to give him some tips of mal vidhya as it interests him.

We reached the steps to be stopped by our hundred bharatashrees, excited to meet them. I was about to go to them but what bharata dushasan said made me shocked. "So you finally here new attendants go get us our footwear, because who talks with servants are surely servants as well" causing them to laugh and make me angry, I replied, they are humans first and talking to someone just because they work under us doesn't make one small, but the one who has such thinking bharata dushasan" making him red in anger and glaring at me saying "this is not over and I won't forget this'' (well looks like I already made a enemy), jesth bharata said "aadhya apologize and give him my respect as he is elder than you", but bharata dushaan loudly said "it's not just her you all are going to pranaam as well" hearing that bharata yudhishthir ordered "nakul, sahadev and aadhya goes pranaam dushasan as his is your elder and it is compulsory to do so" before we could even move a step a voice came from behind saying "it's not about being jesth or anuj its about status as we are sons of king dhritarashtr and we don't pranaam anyone, everyone pranaams us and you all are going to pranaam us now and forever" and hearing this we started answering them back causing small arguments but soon pitamah bhishma came and resolved it.

NO ONE'S POV

Soon it was night and it was dinner time all pandavas were roaming around and soon a dasi came to call aadhya saying "mata kunti has called you raj kumari" and aadhya bid bye to her bharatshree’s and went to mata kunti.

Sitting together on the dining table pitamah bismah told the kurava prince's to eat food without folding hands and yudhishthir figured it out and started feeding duryodhan making pitamah proud and told everyone that they will feed each other and eat today that's an order and he went away to do some work, but no one fed pandavas keeping them hungry.

After aadhya came she sat down and asked kunti the reason to call her but soon a small voice said "pranaam mata kunti" making aadhya turn to see who it was, it was dushala and kunti introduced aadhya to her and told aadhya to go spend some time with her, aadhya went along and soon dushala introduced her dolls to aadhya making her confuse when dushala handed a doll to her, aadhya said "jiji I don't know how to play with dolls and I will just look at you playing and talk with you", dushala asked "you have never played with dolls!?" and aadhya nodded a no in response and dushala said "okay then look at me how to play and we will talk!" and nodded happily and saw what dushala did and they talked and share some memories with each other and soon a dasi called them to eat.

KUNTI'S POV

Aadhya and dushala came to eat and sat at their places, soon food was served but I could see aadhya wasn't happy with something and didn't touch a thing and I asked her worried "what happened putri?" she replied "I don't want to eat anything, can go to my room?" making me shock as she is our other vrikodar who never says no to food but looking at her made me realize that she has never eaten alone she has always shared her meals with her bharatashree's and is not comfortable without them so I nodded a yes and said "you can go putri" and called a dasi and said "take aadhya's plate and some extra food and some (many) ladoos to aadhya's room" saying "jo aagya" the Dasi went away, I knew my putra bheem will join her eating even if he is full and informed other dasi "go senf pandavas to aadhya room" and she went to do her job as well, as I knew aadhya will only eat with her bharatashree's now.

ARJUN'S POV

We all were in our room hungry trying to sleep, I don't know how bharata bheem is going through this, I thought of aadhya thinking how she would have showed the so called rajkumar's their places if she came to know how they kept us hungry especially bharata bheem hungry, imagining her fuming face made me giggle, looking at me nakul said "I guess hunger has made bharata arjun crazy as he is giggling without any reason and I thought bharata bheem would be the one to go crazy not bharata arjun", I shaked my head and told them "I was thinking of aadhya's reaction on us being hungry and imagining her fuming face" hearing this made all of the all laugh as well, a dasi came to our room saying mata kunti has told us to go to aadhya's room.

We entered to see aadhya in deep thoughts and had a sad face, jesth bharata called her saying "what is our little warrior thinking that she didn't even know when her bharatashree's entered", causing her to turn and run towards jesth giving him a hug and gesturing us to join which we gladly did. She made us sit with her saying she knows we haven't eaten anything yet making us shock how she knew and bharata bheem asked "how do you know that aadhya?" and she replied "I know after the morning incident they would take revenge and the only time they would meet you would be in the dining room and I had this gut feeling that you guys haven't eaten" she smiled at us and brought the plate and started feeding us one by one making us happy and proud that how much she knows us, while she was feeding us I said "I know you haven't eaten anything either aadhya" saying that we all started feeding her as well. After eating we were unable to sleep so we all went to mata's room and slept with her.
