Sumwada had a bad feeling about Varnavrath. She felt something was wrong, Nakul saw her being worried and frustrated, he approached her and asked her.
"What happened, you look worried." "Arya, my mind is saying that something is not right.""What do you worry about, our eldest is not going to see all of you, he petted on her shoulder.""I am fine, Arya."
She continued to worry over her sense that something horrible was going to happen even after Nakul consoled her.
When she got up inside her palquin, a dead bird fell over her left foot, which made her worry even more. She screamed out of worry, gaining all the attention from her husband. He jumped off his horse and was shocked to see a dead bird on his wife's foot. Sahadev, knowing what the bird wanted to say, sighed in disappointment. Seeing everyone worried, Duryodhan interrupted and said."arey Bhabhi Shree aap chinta kyu karti hai, varnvrath toh mata aur pandavon ke samman mein hi to praja ne banaya haii."
haa, bhabhi aap Chinta mat kijiye hum haii nah sab sambal Lenge said arjun. She nodded her head and goes inside the palquin.
On the way to Varnavarth it was too sunny even though it was winter. She gets confused with this and understood that her divine father was willing to tell her something. After reaching Varnavrath she notices that there was no fire or light in it even the kitchen was made outside the palace. It made Sumwada and Sahdev suspicious about it.
Sumwadas worry was taken off by her childish behavior, she loved the palace. She jumped around looking at the palace.
Nakul screamed from behind ' are you a child?' smiling at her with playful eyes winking at her, to which she puffed her face making her look more adorable.
He pulled her to his side from her waist with her permission as she kept her hands on his checks giving him a little kiss on his forehead. They didn't notice Bheem, Sahadev looking at them from a distance, giggling looking at them. Sumwada felt embarrassed, she punched his stomach, made an angry face and ran away.
Nakul looked confused towards his right and saw Bheem and Sahdev feeling awkward. He blushed to his left, seeing Arjun and Mata Kunti there. They burst out into laughter, and Nakul became tomato red. Bheem mimicked "are you a child?" in a girl's voice. Till then, Yudhisthir entered, calling all of them for a meet but could not call Sumwada.
Yudhisthir whispered and said that mahamantri Vidhur had come to realize that the walls of the palace were made out of wax and sticks. It was a planned ploy by Duryodhan and Mama Shakuni. Nakul ran towards Sumwadas room to find her, but she was not in her room, he got worried about her that was when Purochana (builder of the palace) approached him to call him for dinner he asked Purochana whether he knew where Sumwada was to which he said that she was already in the dining hall. he ran towards the dining hall to see Sumwada eating her favorite rasmalai alone, he also saw Purochana's wife trying to stop her from eating it. He found it suspicious and understood that the rasmalai was poisoned. He grabbed the rasmalai from her hands and saw relief on Purochana's wife's face. He examined the rasmalai to see that the rasmalai was mixed with slow poison and saw Sumwadas face whose eyes were red with anger seeing him grab her favorite food. He tried to calm her down with a peaceful hug, but she was not happy with her husband taking away her dish. Till then Mata Kunti and Bheem arrived with the other brothers and ate food, Nakul kept looking at Sumwada to check if she was fine and he noticed that she felt extremely sleepy and was finding it hard to open her eyes. Her head fell over Nakul's shoulder giving a sign for the others to act. The others tried their best to act and then they could hear Purochana putting fire to the main pillar of the palace.
Taking this as an opportunity, they jumped up to ran and Nakul grabbed Sumwada in his armed ready to protect her from the fired and the poison, but he worried that he would reached the other side of the tunnel before the poison spreads in her body.
He worried about her. They ran towards the tunnel.Nakul removed his ang Vastra and tied it around her waist tied it to his torso. Mata Kunti could not stop smiled saw her son in this manner. The fired broke down to the tunnel shutting the door to the palace made it hard to breathed. Nakul could feel Sumwada's breathed getting shallow, he screamed out of worried. Gained the Pandava's attention and made them tensed, they could feel the palace collapsed over the tunnel they ran to the other ended of the tunnel and Bheem barged opened the door which was next to the river.
Nakul removed Sumwada from his body and ran to found medicines to cured her, Sahdev checked her pulse which was low. A bright source of light appeared in front of them, Nakul saw this light plucked the medicines and ran as fast as he could ran. The bright source was her divine father, Suryadev saw him Kunti looked towards the ground ashamed. Everyone greeted the divine god, looked at his daughter. Everyone was shocked to see that their Bhabhi and bahu had relations with the sun.
Nakul who came running did not know anything which happened, Sumwada who had a bad headache could not explain anything what happened. Seeing Sumwada totally fine, he could not control his tears of happiness, ran to her and gave her a warm hug and did not let go of her till Sahdev interrupted by coughing. The others were enjoying the view. Meanwhile, Kunti was worried about the thought that Sumwada might know about her darkest secret, karan. Nakul carried Sumwada in his arms till they reached the boat, in the boat Sumwada comes near his ear and whispers 'achha laga apki bhaon (arms)mein, man kar raha tha kabhi utru hi nahii and kisses him on his cheek without anyone noticing it and he keeps his hand on her warm lap.
she then asked her husband where they were going to live, to which arjun replied ' the forests.'
Sumwada turned towards her husband, Nakul
She smiled at him and said.' Never mind, this is also a part of our life, and I have promised you that I will support you in all your sorrows and joys.'
Nakul never knew this side of his wife and could not stop smiling and promised her that he would never love a woman how he loves her. she smiled at him and held his hand and left the other Pandavas smiling.
It was late night, so they planned to sleep in a cave. The Pandavas searched for grass and wood to make a bed when Sumwada and Mata Kunti was in the cave waited for them, when asked her to look if her sons had returned, Sumwada went out to saw if the Pandavas were her. After few minutes, Kunti did not found Sumwada with her answered and went outside the cave to saw Sumwada lied unconscious on the ground. se immediately shouted to her sons thought that the effect of the poison had still not cured. Sahdev and Yudhisthir heard her cried and ran towards the cave to see Sumwada lied unconscious on the ground, Sahdev checked her pulse and founded it abnormal.
