His witness and Gayatri arrived in front of the palace gate. His sax pulled the reins of his horse a sign they were going to stop. Gayatri aligned her horse with her Saxon horse.
“Mr princess, get here our encounter. Sorry I couldn't get you inside. Give my regards to Raja”, said Saksenya say goodbye to Gayatri.
Gayatri continued to drive her horse towards the palace. Gayatri arrived at the women's ward. The state of the ward was very gloomy, the hallway to his room looked dark.
What happened thought Gayatri.
Not a single torch lit up. Gayatri towards the kitchen there was not a single maid in the kitchen. Gayatri was forced to find straw to burn and light it on one of the torches, then carried it to the women's ward.
Gayatri lit one torch after another until she arrived in her room.
Gayatri's heart was racing as she watched Siddarth sit on the bed with a sword in his hand.
“So this is what a wife does when her husband is not around?” siddarth asked, his eyes looking straight ahead. Ignoring Gayatri who was standing by the side of the bed.
Gayatri placed the torch she was holding on to the torch in her room.
“King Saksenya came to greet me and asked me to see the Yamuna river. This good idea of course I did not reject”, Gayatri said as she waited for Siddarth's response.
Siddarth had heard Gunjana's report that Gayatri had gone with his Saxony. The response he received from Gayatri was incredible. Gayatri was not even afraid of the cold attitude Siddarth showed.
Siddarth puts Gunjana's position as Gayatri's servant not without reason. Siddarth wanted Gunjana to report what Gayatri was doing as long as he was not around, lest Gayatri behave like Utari. The reports he had received from Gunjana since they married Siddarth were taken as questions
it's normal for a wife, but not today.
“What will my people say when they see the wife of a Siddarth leaving with another man?” ask Siddarth wrathfully.
“What will these palace people say, when a husband leaves without saying goodbye to his wife?” Gayatri answered Siddarth's question
with question.
“You care about the people and your enemies, while I care about the mouths of all the women in this palace”.
Siddarth gripped his sword tightly. Digesting every word of Gayatri that entered his ears.
“Save your punishment until my letter arrives in Dwipajaya, if father refuses then you can punish me”
Siddarth's anger slowly subsided. He remembered his persuasion of Gayatri.
“Morning of the letter I will leave it to the special envoy who will leave for Dwipajaya”, said Siddarth leaving Gayatri.
Siddarth needed something to calm him down. Lakshmi. Siddarth set foot on Odissa.
“Mr Princess, I will come to Odissa” said Gunjana who emerged from behind the curtains of Gayatri's room.
“No need” said Gayatri while raising her right hand
he asked Gunjana to stay.
“Stay here” Gayatri command.
Gayatri asks Gunjana to massage her shoulder while writing a letter to Dwipajaya.
Gayatri scratched her heart's longing in the letter and asked her father to give her share of the land to be planted in Palawija because Astapura was desperate.
Finished writing the letter, Gayatri rolled up the letter and put it in the mail tube.
“Deliver this to the messenger Siddarth who will leave for Dwipajaya tomorrow morning”
Gayatri handed the scroll to Gunjana.
“Leave me alone, I want to rest”
Gunjana retired from Gayatri's room after putting out the torch in the room.
