Aditya and Krithika went into the palace garden where they can discuss what is happening in their life. Both are silent for some time but Aditya didn't like this silence so he spoke first.

Aditya: Krithika are you angry with me?

Krithika: Anna why I will be angry with you? I am just disappointed. I don't know what I should say to you. What happened to you when you decided against marrying Princess Nandini?

Aditya: Krithika Iam married her to stop these internal wars and she is so pure girl who married to the murderer of her father. Krithika sighed and said.

Krithika: Can we sit near that pond?

Aditya: Come.

Krithika: Anna don't take me wrong. But is not it a war that means slaying enemies' armies?

Aditya: What are you trying to imply Krithika?

Krithika: I am not implying anything, Anna. I am asking you what a war means.

Aditya: To get victory over our enemies either killing or making them surrender.

Krithika: Exactly Anna then why are you calling yourself a murderer Even Lord Vishnu slayed many evils incarnating himself in different avatars. Anna, you are also killing evil. And Anna you know what people in the kingdom are thinking. They are proud of you that they made you a crown prince who will not let them face any trouble soo never say you are a murderer of enemies and it's the duty of a soldier to slay people in war.

Aditya: Whatever you said is correct Krithika but now I am married to Nandini and what she feels about me is the same because I killed her father.

Krithika: Anna why are you married to Nandini because of your love for her which you lost 15 years back? Anna if Nandini married you thinking you are the murderer of her father then you have to be careful of her intentions.

Aditya: Krithika. He roared like a lion. This Roar is listened to by the three princes they were afraid of what would have happened but Krithika is ineffective with his roar.

Krithika: Anna why are shouting if you are married because of your long-lost love then I will say just be careful because you are married to a poisonous snake.

Aditya: Krithika I know what happened 15 years back and now that's just past about Nandini, I agree she is the daughter of our enemy and I am married to end this rivalry between Pandyans and Cholas.

Krithika: Okay you said what happened 15 years back is past but does Nandini wanna end this are you sure Anna she wants peace, not revenge?

Aditya: What should I do to prove to you that Nandini wants to end this rivalry between us?

Krithika: Anna I trust you and I don't need any proof but remember one thing Anna how a man thinks is different from how a woman thinks.

Aditya: What do you mean Krithik?

Krithika: Anna what I mean is in a war you attack your enemy physically. But a woman always attacks her enemy mentally which is a hundred times more painful than a straight attack. Because if once a man's mental health disturbs then it affects the whole family. Anna every man thinks that they are very intelligent but don't forget every woman is more intelligent than a man because you don't know how to control yourself in every situation but a woman is always taught how to control herself in every situation.

Aditya: Krithika you are confusing me more.

Krithika: Anna I am saying just don't trust anyone more than your instincts not even your family because we don't who and what is plotting behind our backs. If you wanna trust someone then know that person's intentions Anna because these are the most important qualities in Crown Prince because you took the Oath of Protecting the Chola Dynasty and the people. Always stay alert.

Aditya: I know talking to you I will get answers to all my questions. Come we will meet Nandini.

Krithika: Anna don't take me wrong how can I come to your chamber when she is not present to welcome me that means she doesn't wanna meet me. I don't wanna impose her with my presence you can bring her to meet me at Rajarajan Anna Palace as I will be here to talk with Rajarajan Anna.

Aditya: Okay. I will bring her here.

Krithika: Anna don't force her if she doesn't wanna meet me.

Aditya: Why are you thinking like that? She will come and meet you.

Krithika: If you say so.

Saying both went back to the palace and Aditya went to meet Nandini.

Rajarajan: What happened?

Krithika: Nothing Just brother and sister talk.

Rajarajan: Why Anna shouted?

Krithika: Because I stated the truth. Anyways I will say what happened between us first you say why are you not writing letters to my friend Princess of Kodambular?

Rajarajan: You don't know why?

Krithika: I don't know.

Rajarajan: Krithika I am not in the mood of joking. I thought she would have come with you.

Krithika: She came with me but you avoided her. Now she is with Patti and Amma. Anna, we know what is going on but lose your true love because I consider her as Anni and don't punish her for what her family is doing.

Rajarajan: Okay I will talk to her. What about my friend Mahendra? You know he truly loves the Princess of Sambuverayar clan.

Krithika: I know you both are fools do one thing tomorrow we are going to the temple you and your friends come there.

Rajarajan: What about Karthikeyan?

Krithika: What about him?

Rajarajan: He to lost his heart to a princess can you bring her so if you bring her he will talk to her?

Krithika: Who is that princess? She asked with a blank face.

Rajarajan: You will know tomorrow where Anna went?

Krithika: To bring Princess Nandini.

Rajarajan: Do you think she will come here?

Krithika: Yes because if she doesn't come here then what happens you know so she will come.

Rajarajan: How are you so confident Krithika?

Krithika: I am not confident I just guessed her nature.

Soon they heard a soldier announcement of Aditya and Nandini coming. Krithika looked at Rajarajan who is shocked and he looked at Krithika who is having a victorious smile on her face.
