Bani's POV

Wedding Day.

I was seated dressed in a blue saree.
Meera Di was putting on the blue chunri while Gauri was putting pink bangles with a floral element in my hand.

Ishita was doing my make up. I always preferred the minimal make up look up. While Bhavya was putting the emerald studded mang tika.

I kept looking at the mirror. Today was THE DAY.

Even the mere thought made my heart beat insanely.

It was going to be the time for the muhurat, when Dad walked in.

"Dad.. "

I said, hugging him emotionally.

I know we were not in betiyan shadi ke baad parayi ho jati hein era but still I was a little emotional, thinking about this new stage of my life.

Dad also hugged me being emotional.

I know he was missing Mom today just like me Or even more.

"Beta.. You trust me right? "

He asked. Catching me off guard.

"Of course Dad. Ye kaisa sawal hein? "
I said.

" Then remember that whatever I will do, I will do it for your own good beta.. "

"Of course Dad. Now stop being so senti. Mere modern Dad par suit nahi karta..! "

I said and laughed a little, as I earned a chuckle from him as well.

" Apna khayal rakhna aur apne dusre parivaar ka bhi.. "

He said putting his hand on my head.

"Yes Dad.. "

I said with a smile.

" Baraat aa gayi hein..! "

Tapish jiju said with a smile.

Dad moved down to welcome them. As I stood near the window trying to catch a last glimpse of my fiance.

Because the next time I see him, he will be my Husband.

He came out of the car and looked up to the window. Our eyes met and I smiled. He just kept looking at me.

Him and his staring! Uff

Ek smile bhi toh kar sakta hein.

"Hogaya jiju ko dekhna "

Gauri said teasing me as I immediately closed the curtains.

"I was not doing any thing as such..! "
I said.

"Haan.. Haan bilkul.. Gauri tang mat kar humari Bani ko.. Bechari khidki se tarein dekh rahi thi.. "

Bhavya said teasing me more.

" Tum log na.. Bohot bure ho.. "

I said being flabbergasted.

" Jaise bhi hein, teri liye humesha hein. Married or not married we are always a call away."

Ishita said and I smiled.

"I LOVE YOU GUYSSS"

I said as we four engulfed in a hug.

"Abb chal.. Tere dulhe raja intezar kar rahe hein."

Meera di said.

I started moving down stairs accompanied by my girl gang and with my semi partial ghunghat .

I could partially see everybody. Both the families were very happy and joyous.
Well, I just couldn't see one of them and that was Veeranshu. Where was he?

Anyways I brought back my train of thoughts and looked at my mandap.
My mandap was decorated with lilies and there he was waiting for me. Once I saw him nothing else mattered.

I smiled and walked down.

I settled beside him.

The priest started chanting the prayers.
I had a smile on my face throughout.
Soon it was time for the Jaimala rasam.

I was about to put the garland when Aakesh and Rudra lifted Teeranshu and I smiled.

"Not so easy Bhabhi.. "

Rudra said and I fluttered by hearing the word "Bhabhi ".

" Guys.. "

Teeranshu said them in a stern voice.

Matlab aaj ke din bhi inko sadu bana hein. Haye bhagwan solah somvar na karne ka ye nateeja.

Okay Bani, thoda zyada drama hogaya.

Coming back to the shadi.

"Karne de Teer, aaj toh haq banta hein "

Mahir bhai said with a smile. Mahir bhai was also very nice person. All these days he was handling all the pressure of the business so that his little brothers could have a great time.

" Toh kya hua hum ladki wale thodi kam hein.. "

Tapish bhai said lifting me and Dad also joined him.

Their was laughter echoing all around. Our game was still going on when suddenly Teeranshu stopped and bend his head.

I immediately put the garland around his neck and smiled.

"Kya bhai hara diya tune toh.. "

Omkara said.

"Dil ki baziyon ko harkar jeeta jata hein."

He said and I blushed.

That's how he used to make my heart flutter everytime. No matter what problem I faced, he always had a solution for it.

When I shared my problems with him, it didn't feel like I was burdening him.

But now it was my turn. I know something was burdening him and I wanted to be there for him.

Teeranshu soon filled my hairline with the Vermillion and some Vermilion fell on my nose. I scrunched my nose a little and he forwarded his hand to remove it when Bela bhabhi interrupted him.

"Arey, isse hata kyun rahe hein devarji. Ye toh pyar ki nishani hein. Kehte hein sindur gir jaye matlab pati bohot pyar karta hein. ".

She said and I smiled. My gaze was lowered so I couldn't see his expressions. I so wanted to see his face.

He soon tied the mangalsutra around my neck.

And I felt a sense of beautiful addition in my life. A beautiful change.A beautiful journey.

Soon we got up for the pheras.

Chandrakala maa came and tied the knot.

"Ek second guys.. ! "

Omkara interrupted us.

"What happened Om.. ? "

Balwant uncle asked.

"Uncle inn logon ne shadi ke vows toh liye nahi, toh kyun na ye har phere ke sath ek dusre ko vachan de"

Om said and everybody smiled.

We took the seven rounds , understanding the meaning of each and every one.

First Phera

Groom: "Om esha ekapadi bhava iti prathaman"

Bride: "Dhanam dhanyam pade vadet"

"Main tumhari sari khushiyon ka khayal rakhunga aur tumhe ek khubsurat zindagi dunga."

He said holding my hand and making me smile within my veil.

"Main har tarike se tumhari sathi banungi. Khushi main sath aur dukh main tumhare aur bhi pass chalungi.. "

I said and felt his hold tightening on my hand. As if he never wanted to leave it.

Second Phera

Groom: "Om oorje jara dastayaha"

Bride: Kutumburn rakshayishyammi sa aravindharam"

"Main wada karta hu ki main tumhari taqat banunga"

He said.

"Main wada karti hu ki main tumhari himmat banungi. Kabhi ye taqat kamzor pad bhi jaye toh tumhari ye himmat tumhara sath nahi chodegi aur badle main sirf tumhara pyar aur samman magengi."

I said.

Third Phera

Groom: "Om Rayas Santu Joraa Dastayaha"

Bride: "Tava Bhakti as Vadedvachacha"

"Main tumhe Sare sukh aur pura samman dunga. Tumhare sath apna ghar basaunga. Jahan tum meri Ardhangani hogi. Mera aadha hissa. Har maine main. Har faisle main. "

He said.

"Main tumhe bhi pura samman aur pura pyar dunga. Jeevan ke gadi ke hum do aese paiye banenge, jo mushkil se mushkil raaste sath main kat lenge. "

I said.

Fourth Phera.

Groom: "Om Mayo Bhavyas Jaradastaya ha"

Bride: "Lalayami Cha Pade Vadet"

"Meri zindagi main aa kar tumne usse itna khubsurat bana diya. Uske liye shukriya Bani. Main wada karta hu ki zindagi main kitne bhi kate aaye, main phoolon ki khusbhoo tumhari zindagi main mehka kar hi rahunga. "

He said.

"Main wada karti hoon ki main aapki zindagi main khushiyan bhar dungi. Khaskar unn lamhon main jab udasi ka saya aap par mandara raha ho. "

I said.

Fifth Phera

Groom: "Om Prajabhayaha Santu Jaradastayaha"

Bride: "Arte Arba Sapade Vadet"

"Main wada karta hu, ki patni ke sath sath main tumhe apni sabse khas dost banaunga. Mushkil ghadiyon main ek pati aur dost dono tum mujh mein paogi. "

He said making me smile even more.

"Main wada karti hu ki puri zindagi aapse bohot pyar karungi aur aakhiri sans tak aapki bankar rahungi. "

I said.

Sixth Phera

Groom: "Rutubhyah shat padi bhava"

Bride: "Yajna Hom Shashthe Vacho Vadet"

"Inn cheh phero se tumne mujhe pura kar diya, yunhi mere sath Zindagi bhar chalogi toh mujhse zyada khushnaseeb iss duniya main koi nahi hoga. ".

He said.

" Main tumhare sath humesha khadi rahungi. "

I said almost replying to his vow.

Seventh Phera

Groom: "Om Sakhi Jaradastayahga"

Bride: "Attramshe Sakshino Vadet Pade"

"Aaj se main tumhara aur tum meri huyi, gharwali. "

He said and I blushed at the endearment. "Gharwali".

"Abb ye sath kabhi na chute, ye wadein kabhi na tute. Bhagwan aur badon ka aashirvaad aur ek dusre par humara bharosa sada ke liye bana rahe. "

I said.

And everybody clapped and showered us with flowers.

Well, except Rudra, who was busy throwing petals on Bhavya.

"Aaj se aap dono pati patni huye. "

The priest said and I finally looked at him.

He had a soft smile on his face.

But that smile were telling thousand tales.

A smile of love and pain. Both at the same time.

~~~
It was now time for my Vidaai.

I hugged Dad and Meera di. My friends also engulfed me in a hug.

Tears formed in our eyes.

"Uncle aap royi mat, aapki beti humesha pehele aapki beti hi rahegi. Main toh bas ek addition hu uske life main. "

Teeranshu said and I looked at him with respect.

His demeanour was back to the way my Teeranshu always spoke to me.

The way he always touched my heart.

" Khayal rakhna beta iska aur aaj se uncle nahi Papa bol "

Dad said.

"Apni jaan se zyada khayal rakhunga Papa.. "

He said and I blushed.

I know Mom will be very happy today for me as well . Finally I found my soulmate just like Dad and Mom.

I moved towards the car.

We settled in it.

Teeranshu forwarded a Handkerchief in my direction and I took it and wiped my tears.

"Tumhare aakhon main aasun acche nahi lagte."

He said.

" Teeranshu I Lo.. "

I was about to confess being overwhelmed as I held his hand.

"Abhi nahi Bani.. Mujhe tumhe pehele kuch batana hein.. "

He said taking away his hand. He seemed vulnerable for a second.

"Kya..!? "

I asked.

"Woh... "

He was trying hard to say something and that's when it hit me.

"Now I know.. Tum kal ka badla le rahe ho na.. Chalo thik hein.. Confession can wait for tonight."

I said teasing him .

"Nahi Bani.. Tum samjh nahi rahi ho.. "

He said.

"Sir we have reached"

The driver said and we got out.

Bela Bhabhi was standing their with arti ki thali.

Where was Maa.?

Bhabhi did our arti and put the kalash in front of me. I gently pushed it with my toe and the rice got scattered on the ground.

I then put my feet in the red akta and walked in my new home with Teeranshu's steps by my side.

This was how life was going to be. Us together forever.

"Accha chalo abb anguthi dhundhne ki rasam karle..

Bhabhi said with a smile.

Everybody were present there except for maa.

" Bhabhi , Maa..? "

I asked.

"Woh uska thoda sar dard karne laga. Aati hi hogi. Tum log rasam shuru karo"

Papa said.

"Chalo start karte hein and Bani you are wining. "

Bhabhi said and Mihu was also smiling .

"No way.. Jeetega toh mera bhai. "

Mahir bhai said.

Me and Teeranshu started with the rasam. We were searching for the ring that Bhabhi dropped in. Our fingers slightly brushed inside the bowl and we looked at each other as red hues formed on our cheeks.

Finally I got the ring and I pulled it out, only to realize that I didn't find it alone.

"Ohh Wowwoww.. Jodi takar ki hein..! "

Bela bhabhi said as we held to the ring together.

Mahir bhai and Papa were smiling but suddenly something happened that I never expected.

Maa took the bowl of milk and pushed it. The milk fell on the ground and we got startled.

"CHANDRAKALA! Kya kar rahi ho..?? "

Papa said angrily.

" Main kya kar rahi hoonn...??? Aap log kya kar rahe hein..? "

She said angrily.

"Chandrakala we will talk about this later.. "

Papa said trying to hold Maa.

" Bas Balwant ji.. Bohot hogaya.. Ye natak mujhse aur nahi hoga.. "

She said looking angrily at Teeranshu.

"Maa.. Suniye..

Teeranshu moved forward to calm down maa.

"Mera beta gayab hein aur yahan iss ladke ko do minute nahi lage apne bhai ki khushiyan chinne main.. ".

" Maa aap galat samjh rahi hein.. ".

He said but that's when something happened that was even more shocking

A tight slap landed on Teeranshu's cheek.

Maa slapped him and I gasped.
His face was still turned and I held his hand . I felt angry, confused and sad. All at the same time.

" Ek minute Chandrakala Singhania!!!!!!! "

Papa growled in anger.

"Mere beta par ek aur bar haath uthaya toh aacha nahi hoga."

He said.

" Main isse apne parivar ko aur todne nahi dungi.."

Maa said and I saw tears in my husband's eyes.

" Maa aap ye kya bol rahi hein.. "

I said still holding on to his hand

" Beta pata nahi Tujhe main kaise sach batau.. Ye tera pati banne ke kabil nahi.. "

She said and I was beyond shocked with her venomous words.

" Sach?? Sach sunna hein na tumhe Chandrakala."

Papa said.

"Dad stop... ".

Teer said slowly.

" Nahi beta.. Isse sach suna dete hein. Bata dete hein iske bete ki kartut. "

Papa said.

And I jotted down a little. We're they talking about Veeranshu?

What did he do..?

Was Ishita right? Teer was tensed due to Veeranshu?

"Toh sach ye hein Mrs Singhania ki aapka Beta Teeranshu singhania apne shadi se bhag gayaaaaaaa....! ".

Papa said and my world paused. I felt numb.

" Aur dono ghar ki izzat bachaane ke liye Veeranshu ne Bani ka hath tham liya.. "

He said and everybody gasped..

My hold from his hand slipped and a tear fell from his eyes.

He looked at me with tears in his eyes. As if he was going to lose everything.

But I was feeling lifeless.

I was feeling helpless at the game of destinies.

Dil ki baziyon main apne dil ke sath sath main apne Dilbar ko bhi har gayi..

" Bani.. "

Came his low pitched Voice who has tears in his eyes but I was not in a state to even react .

Teeranshu, the love of my life had run away from our marriage and here I was his twin brother's wife.

Zindagi ne mere sath aesi behuda bazi kheli hein, jo main kabhi samne main bhi nahi soch sakti thi.

Tears slipped out of my eyes facing such a big betrayal.

I almost unbalanced and he came forward to hold me.

" Don't touch me.. "

I said with hatred dripping in my voice.

~~~

But little did she know..

Apni pasand shayad galat bhi hojaye par Rab humare liye jisko pasand karte hein woh kabhi galat nahi hota.

~~~
