Arjun was really touched by Krishna and his thoughts. The Pandavas were also clearly impressed by him.

"Vasudev, you have changed the entire politics of Aryavart." Yudhishtir praised.

"Bade bhaiya, the change in the politics of Aryavart will be brought by you." Krishna said.

"Madhav, when will the dance start ?" Arjun asked.

"You cannot see her dance." Krishna said.

"Why ?" Arjun asked.

"Women of royalty don't dance in front of unknown men. They dance separately." Krishna said.

"Can't we see ?" Arjun asked.

"Come with me." Krishna said.

Both of them went up to the teracce and surprisingly there were no guards present, probably Krishna's maya. Reaching the top they were able to see women dancing down there.

Arjun eyes searched everywhere and finally found Sagarika dancing among the women.

Her dance completely mesmerized him, the way her arms moves, the captivating smile on her face.

Arjun thought that the entire perfection of the world at that moment was manifested in her, the innocence, the purity, the beauty, the righteousness, everything seemed to be residing in her.

Her swinging waist were like the those of apsaras but even Urvasi's waist couldn't rival hers, for its one of its kind. Arjun accepted the fact that her beauty was ethereal, not of this world.

"The man who gets her will truly be a lucky one." Arjun said.

"True. Maybe it can be you." Krishna said.

"Am I worthy of her ? Worthy of protecting such innocence ? Worthy of loving such beauty ?" Arjun asked.

"Why do you think like that ?" Krishna asked.

"She deserves a glorious king who would make her sit right beside her on a golden throne." Arjun said.

"I think she needs a man who can love her. And sitting on a throne ? If its there in her destiny then no can snatch it from her." Krishna said.

"True words. We must go now, Jyesht would be worried otherwise." Arjun said.

"Surely." Krishna said.

Arjun took one last glance at Sagarika and left smiling. Reaching where the rest of Pandavas were, Yudhishtir approached Arjun.

"Where were you Arjun ?" Yudhishtir asked.

"I took Parth to show him something." Krishna said.

"I see." Yudhishtir nodded.

"The food here is so delicious !" Bheem said coming towards them with a plate full of traditional food of saurashtra.

"You should try the mangoes of Saurashtra." Krishna said.

"Mangoes ? In this season ?" Bheem asked confused.

"Well, in the royal garden there is a tree which was planted by Rishi Atri, and with his blessing there are mangoes year around and there is no shortage of them." Krishna said.

"Then I must have it." Bheem said.

"Surely Bhrata Bheem, tomorrow I will take you there." Krishna chuckled.
