The King of Dwarka had his eyes fixed on the palace-gates , heart dancing with love that was coming to him. The universe in bliss at what was about to happen. The smile on his face broadened at the sight of man with a scroll in his hand. He waited calmly for it reach him and it did. Nodding slightly to the soldier , he took the scroll in his own hands . 

Just as he was about to unfold the letter , a pair of hands snatched it away making Krishna turn his head towards the direction. Mythili stood with a mischief smile.

" Who writes to Dwarkadeesh Krishna Vaasudeva ?" , poked Mythili. " Mythili I myself haven't seen. Handover !", said Krishna waiting to get the letter. " Not at all Bhrata", said Mythili before running.

The two of them ran in the corridors making the palace - maids smile. It wasn't right for a princess and a king but at that moment it was only siblings.

No wonder Krishna was fast and was about to catch hold of Mythili before which a pair of golden hands got the letter. 

"Bhama didi", pouted Mythili while panting. The maiden was the daughter of the royal treasurer , Satyabhama. Golden aura , lotus eyes , lotus hands , lotus feet all belonging eternally to the goddess of wealth , Devi Mahalakshmi. Bhu devi herself in her entire glory !

"Snatching letter was fine , is it ?", asked Satyabhama pulling the latter's ears as her eyes met his lotus ones. A knowing smile on their lips.

"It hurts didi. Anyways I will get to know the writer later ",shouted Mythili while running away making Krishna and Satyabhama shake their head.

" Satrajita Kumari read it out ",said Krishna smiling. " But... ", paused Satyabhama to get an assurance to which she nodded. She unrolled the scroll as her lips curved into a beautiful smile.

I love you ; my heart and soul is committed to you from the time I heard your name. I am yours not only for this life but all the future lives as well. Purshottama , please come and take me away.

Krishna closed his eyes with a smile playing on his lips . The deeply emotional voice of his Vaidarbhi now striking his ears.The love-lorn face of hers in front of him. How she has poured her heart out to him ? 

I have considered myself your wife , Yadukulabhushana. I am sure every girl wants you as her swami since your brave,kind, handsome, generous, courageous and everything else a girl wants in her husband.Bhuvanasubdhara !

How can I not accept the plea of my ardhangini since eternity ?,thought Krishna. 

Krishna Vaasudeva ! I have vowed that you will be my husband . I cannot live without your love. If this is denied to me , I shall certainly die. I cannot go through the swayamvara that my brother has arranged with Chedi Yuvaraja Shishupala. Please take me away ! I shall wait for you in Mata Parvati temple on the outskirts of the Kingdom before the swayamvara . Please come and take me away , Praneshwara. 

The letter had ended but Krishna could hear the song of her love even then. The call that he has been waiting for , had finally come ! Krishna opened his eyes to see the daughter of Satrajit smile. 

" I am starting before the dawn" , said Krishna making Satyabhama nod her head happily .

Mythili felt herself embraced by the ocean of love that she saw . The sight of Rukmini and Krishna on the chariot as the two lovers looked into each other's eyes. LakshmiNarayana themselves !

She saw the princess of Vidarbha touch the feet of Balarama soon after which she felt a pair of eyes on her . She stood motionless , wasn't this the same love that she had seen in Satyabhama's eyes ?

"Mythili ", Rukmini's voice broke Mythili from her thoughts. " Rukmini didi", whispered Mythili before throwing her arms around Rukmini who smiled back.

" I heard the mischief you did " , said Rukmini making Mythili turn towards Krishna who smiled back mischievously . " Nothing much didi it was Dau who gave me the idea", said Mythili with a naive face.

" What me ? When ? " , asked Balarama instantly making the three burst out in laughter seeing the look on his face .

" The Pandavas are on the way Dwarakadeesh", said the soldier making Krishna nod.
