He comes to her and holds her close, as she is shivering from fright.
Ram- Why did u come here without me Sita?
Sita- Raghunandan I heard a small boy crying
Ram- Small boy? Where?
Sita goes to the boy and he hugs her tightly. She takes him from behind the bush. He gets scared of Ram.
Sita- Putra, Raghunandan will not harm you. You are safe now.
Lakshman comes with some herbs for Sita. The boy hides behind Sita.
She smiles and says- Lakshman bhaiya will also not do anything to you okay putra?
