Precap: ashok meets sushim recarnation. But sushim doesn’t recognize ashok. Confuse, the family took ashok to a festival for kings, let’s continue
Dharma was at her privet garden, she was distracting herself from thinking of her son, one of bindusara wife told her to eat but she refuse, she told her that ashok wouldn’t want her to starve her unborn child. Dharma told her she was right, she will eat when the sun sets, but she will not break the promise she made to ashoke.
Bindusara walk in worried. He asks his other wife if she’s refusing to eat, and she said yes . he sighs, ” maybe after the child she will forget about ashok” he says, looking at his beloved wife.
Sushim, couldn’t get the words out of his head. He turn to the guards, asking them if they like him. The guards quickly said yes, sushim drunk turn to his friends ” see they like me, so why does she hate me, why does she talk of ashok with such fondness” he says getting angry
Sushim friends tried calming him, he snap his hand bringing girls from the harem. One of the girls look at sushim with want. She told the other girls to leave him, his all hers. His friend smirk, the girl walk to sushim while he was sitting. Sushim was not in a good mood. His friends leave with the other girls.
The girl start singing while dancing to a song call yu hi rei, sushim was somewhat enchanted by it. She move her hips in circular motion, touching her body seductively. At first sushim was going to walk away, but he stop when he saw ahankara, watching from the door. He smirk, before touching the girls face. He spun her around while watching ahankara. She advert her eyes when she saw the look he was giving her.
The girl touch his face, getting his attention. He look back at the door to see her gone. Angry he drop the girl and drunkly walk out, searching for her. He found her outside, getting on her horse. Since he didn’t want her to go, he walk in front of the horse and stood there, she told him to move, but he refuse. Sushim moved back a little drunk, he told her that she knows he likes her, yet she keeps putting an error to his heart.
He says its not just her, everyone does. His father, his mother, and even his brothers. He told her they made him this way, he was suppose to be the successor and bindusara favorite not ashok. She was suppose to be in love with him, not ashok. Everyone love ashok, but what about me. I am kicked into the side line, giving what ever I want. That’s not respect, I wanted to be just like father, and rule, but instead I’m thrown to the side line like the rest of my brothers.
He move closer to her and grab her hand ” what is so special about ashok, that you can’t see in me?” He says looking at her, she looks away before saying he is humble , and give people hope. That’s something you will never be”, when she said this sushim let her hand go and walk back in, unaware of someone watching him.
As soon as he reached the guest room, he sat down, tiered. Thinking about ahankara words. The girl from earlier walk in, she went behind him touching his chest. She told him, that ahankara is wrong, he has a very nice heart. He just have to prove it, she told him that she sees his lonlyness, and that she could help him with it.
Sushim drunk allowed her to drag him to the bed, before laying with her. The girl smirk, thinking he will be hers.
