Sita in Ashoka Grove

Sita sat in the grove, below a tree crying for Rama. She refused to touch any food or drink.
In the heaven Brahma was disturbed. If Sita dies of hunger, that would make things difficult. He gave a bowl of kheer to Indra, and asked him to give it to Sita.

Indra went to Sita. He said when Rama and Lakshmana went to catch a deer for you, Ravana brought you over here. Do not worry. Rama will cross the ocean with this army and will destroy all here.

Sita took the bowl from Indra and ate that. With that, her thirst and hunger vanished.

While Sita was grieving thus, Rama started his journey homewards.
