As days passed , the bid Day was just few days far , The days before the wedding arrived like a storm—loud, rushed, and impossible to control.
The house was never quiet anymore. Doors opened and shut without warning, phones rang endlessly, and voices overlapped in a constant hum of instructions and complaints. Someone was always calling her name—sometimes from the kitchen, sometimes from the hallway, sometimes from the other end of the house entirely. There was no pause long enough to think.
Her pov:
I was running late for college when my grandmother who has came 4days before my wedding, stopped me*
Kaha ja rahi ho?
College..
Nahi , shadi se phele bahr nahi niklte.
Dadi important hai varna nahi jati , jldi aa jayungi bye byeeee .
Hey bhagwan yeh ladki kisi ki nahi sunti .
( She called me out but i didn't listen bcz i can't cage myself into the house just bcz I'm a girl and her wedding is in four frekin days )
College:

( I tried to listen more carefully, applying my ear to the wall )
Tch ! Ab bhi kuch nahi sun raha yeh kuch bolta bhi hai haan hu k ilawa 🙄
DIIIIYYYAAAA ( Heard a loud voice calling my name from far but it was coming loud and loud as i turned to look it was kushi coming towards me but this time sliding with his shoes )
Eyes widened when i realised I'm cooked*
Nahiiiiiii ( it felt like I'm in a slow mo scene)
And the next second we both were on floor , from where the principal's office door was right in front so..yes they both can see us . Embarassment on top guyz )
Ouchh aah mummy merri kamar ( i cried not cry cry )
Kya karti hai kushi , kabhi toh ache se SIDHE RASTE , AUR SAMNE SE aya krr .
Sorry sorry , lekin Tu kya kr rahi thi yaha pgl , kiski baatein sun rahi thi ?
Breath hitched* ( i cupped her face and turned it towards principal's office where both sir and Anirudh was looking us with big curious eyes )
She gasped* jiju!?

( He was looking down at me and i didn't looked at him how can i ? After this much embarrassement bro ? )

I got my posture straight again pretending I'm very very fine*

Days passed and you know whatttt guyz it's the day you all were waiting for 😈😋yesss thier wedding day*
By the time the house came alive, there was no space left to breathe.
Voices echoed from every corner. The air smelled of incense, flowers, and something metallic—nerves, perhaps. Someone tugged at her sleeve, someone else adjusted her hair, another reminded her to sit still. Hands moved over her like she was already part of a ritual, no longer entirely her own.
The mirror reflected a version of her she barely recognized.
She looked composed. Beautiful, they said.
Inside, everything felt suspended—like time had paused just long enough for her to notice what she was stepping into.
he stood surrounded by people, yet untouched by the chaos. Calm, unreadable, dressed for a role he had accepted without protest. He listened, nodded when required, smiled when expected. No one could tell what he was thinking—and maybe that was the most unsettling part.
Her pov:
Was getting dressed everyone surrounded me and i was feeling very anxious, nervous, cold as if I'm about to freeze any moment. My chest tightened, not with excitement, not exactly with fear either. Just… awareness. Of how final everything suddenly felt. Of how there was no space left to reconsider, to pause, to ask what if.
Diyaa chal barat agyi ( khushi and mehar come to take me )
Huh?..m.. mujhe nahi jana
Kya bol rahi hai chl jldi kuch nhi hoga mai hu tere sath nervous nahi hote hm ? Ek hee brr toh shadi hoti hai.
Vohi toh kushi ek hee brr toh ..
Kya hua? ( Dad arrived)
D..dad.. ( i hugged him tight) mujhe drr lg raha hai
Tu toh mera sher hai na? Tujhe kisliye drna hai, kuch nahi hota , Anirudh aur uski family bht achi hai tu hmesha kush rahegi aur mai toh milne ata rahunga hm ?
Nodded* being emotional*
Chl aja chalein?
Hmm..
Started walking towards the mandap*
When I finally saw him from a distance, it felt surreal. He looked exactly like he always did—composed, unreadable, as if this day had no power to shake him. People surrounded him, congratulated him, laughed with him.
I watched him quietly, trying to understand how someone could feel so familiar and yet so distant at the same time.
When our eyes met, just for a second, my breath caught. Not because of romance. Because of reality.
This was the man I was about to build a life with.
We stood beside each other when the ceremony began. Close enough that I could sense his presence, the steadiness of him. Not close enough to feel comforted by it. My hands trembled slightly, and I hated that I couldn’t control it.
He noticed.
He held my hand* my breath caught in my throat*
that silence said more than words could have.
The chants echoed around us . Each ritual felt like a quiet step forward, whether I was ready or not.
When it was done, there was no dramatic moment. No rush of emotion. Just a deep, settling silence inside me.
This was real now.
People smiled, blessed us, called us husband and wife. The words felt strange on my skin—new, heavy, permanent. I kept my gaze forward, afraid that if I looked at him, something inside me would crack.
I wasn’t scared of being married.
I was scared of needing him.
Of hoping that, in a house full of strangers, he would become my safe place.
Of wanting him to understand me before I even knew how
to ask.
As the ceremony ended, I felt my old life slip quietly behind me.
And beside me stood a man bound to me by fate—
not love,
not yet.
