AUTHOR'S POV

Adhyay is sitting in his room, everyone is waiting for him downstairs but suddenly comes up after lunch and no one knows what has happened suddenly, Because in no time they have to go out to prepare procession and all of a sudden Adhyay is doing strange things.

Raunak runs to his room and quickly closes the door and sits in front of him, holds both his hands, and tells him.

"Adhyay.... Come on man..... everybody is waiting for you.... I know You are also angry with my sister-in-law that she hid everything from you about Tanay but you keep yourself in her place..."

Adhyay immediately extends his grip on his hand which causes Raunak to keep silent because he knows Adhyay will tell him what he has in mind so he wants to hear from him.

"I am not angry with Shravya at all. I am angry with myself because I knew from day one that she was upset with Tanay and I spent so many days trying to get her out of that trouble."

Raunak smiles lightly after hearing this from his friend, he knows him from childhood, Adhyay can never tolerate the suffering of his loved ones at all. And here Shravya was in trouble, his wife.... In his life, he did not know how many years he had quietly loved her, and Adhyay himself did not even realize that he had given his heart to Shravya many years ago. Raunak placed his hand on his shoulder and say sweetly

"Now she is coming into your life forever, then I am sure that you will save her from every trouble, but there is no need to torture yourself in such a way that you did not pay attention to that mistake for a few days..... Relax buddy.... Thinking how beautiful your bride must be looking in the evening, then how will you control yourself, I feel that at the same time, you pick her up from there, will disappear straight from there, but please mention the place .... Because if you are missing for a long time, we will come looking for you guys.... And please work with patience.... You know what I mean."

Adhyay narrows his eyes and looks at him sharply and says.

"Fixed some filters in your mouth, your sister-in-law is coming, what will she think about you, that you have no shame?"

But Raunak immediately lies on his bed very comfortably looking at the fan.

"My sister-in-law is going to be very happy because she will be glad that her sister is getting such a good husband....."

"Idiot...."

Raunak laughs at his annoyance. He immediately comes to him and puts his hand on his shoulder and tells him.

"In 2 hours, we have to reach there with a procession, your bride is waiting for you, you know very well this is a procession, here we are not going to leave you so easily.... We are going to dance in the whole procession and do not miss my serpent dance. If you miss my serpent dance, that means you have not achieved anything in your life..... And by seeing my serpent dance has to be learned well because next year when I get married, you have to repeat this serpent dance in my marriage."

Aadhyay laughs hearing this. Raunak quickly goes and takes out his clothes from the closest and calls everyone inside and starts bringing his things around to get him ready for his groom's attire which Shravya selects herself.

Author's pov

Radhika has tears in her eyes, she is unable to stop her tears from looking at Shravya, but she is trying her best not to spill those betrayed tears from her eyes at all.

Manohar is unable to come inside even after wishing, he has seen Shravya with just one glance from the window, and now he could not stop himself, his tears started falling from his eyes badly.

Today he is missing his brother and sister-in-law very much. No one can guess the happiness of Manohar, he just wanted so much that if his brother was alive today, he would have seen his daughter as a bride.

Shravya has not seen herself in the mirror even once, she does not want to see herself because she knows that if she sees herself as a bride, she will miss her parents a lot and she did not want to cry at all today because her parents are here in front of her, Manohar and Radhika. She looks at Radhika with a smile and stops herself from crying and tells her.

"Badi ma... You want to spoil my makeup. The makeup artist has also gone from here. As far as I know, Ruhi has told me just a while back that in 10 minutes the baaraat is going to come here and you want to cry here and make me cry too."

Radhika smiles after hearing her and immediately hugs her and kisses her lightly on her head.

"You look so beautiful.... "

"I know it.... You are looking less beautiful than me today, that's why you are crying so much today."

Everyone smiles after listening to her because they know very well why she is doing all this and they understand the emotion inside her very well, so they smile at her lame joke and slowly leave from there. Ruhi is standing beside her, Shravya turns to her and immediately tells Ruhi.

"Ruu... Why are you standing near me? Quickly go to the balcony and tell me the live telecast because you know that I cannot see the procession coming until the (dwar-puja) Quickly tell me what is happening ...."

Aditi and Ruhi know Shravya very well, she is Missing her parents badly. Today she will be leaving Manohar and Radhika's house too, this thing is making her sad from inside.

Ruhi smiles and immediately goes to the balcony. Ruhi had booked this special hotel room for Shravya only because everything can be seen very easily and well from here.

As soon as Ruhi's eyes go to Adhyay she immediately turns around, widens her eyes and puts her hands on her mouth, and tells Shravya with so much excitement.

"Today I agree that pairs are made only in heaven.... Brother-in-law is looking very handsome and I am telling you the truth if brother-in-law was not getting married to you di, then I would love to kidnap him."

Shravya wants to see Adhyay immediately but she knows that Radhika has absolutely forbidden her to look at Adhyay so she can't do it even if she wants to.

Adhyay had called Shravya before leaving his house and told her to make a video call want to see her in her bridal attire and Shravya sees him as her groom, but Shravya did not listen to him, due to which he got angry and hung up the phone at the same moment.

Still can hear from his eagerness how he was trying to convince her that he just wants to see her one time only but she denied him. Just then Ruhi's eyes shine when she looks at Raunak, who is looking only at Ruhi while dancing, he smiles lightly, and Raunak immediately signals her to come down there.

Ruhi turns to Aditi and Shravya, they both know that Raunak must have called her down, and both of them signal her to join him she quickly runs away.

"Go immediately."

Aditi runs to the balcony, Ruhi has also gone down, As soon as Ruhi reaches down, Raunak immediately joins both his hands to form a snake-like hood, Ruhi confusingly looking here and there.

Ranjan immediately comes and gives her his handkerchief, due to which she starts dancing while sticking an end of the handkerchief in her mouth, then the next end of the handkerchief in her hands starts playing snake charmer and playing in front of Raunak.

Everyone has moved away from them, both of them are dancing snake and snake charmer by occupying a lot of space, seeing that everyone is laughing loudly, Aditi's condition is also similar.

Adhyay is also laughing. He looks towards the balcony where Aditi is standing. Aditi shouts loudly and tells Shravya.

"Shravya, your groom is going very crazy, it seems like he will immediately come inside and take seven rounds of holy fire and quickly pick you up in his arms from here."

Raunak and Ruhi are dancing without any worry. They don't want to stop but everyone asks them to stop and go inside.

Radhika comes and stands in front of Adhyay carrying the platter of Aarti, Adhyay immediately gets off the mare and stands in front of her, and touches her feet. Adhyay can very easily see the wetness in Radhika's eyes, Radhika cannot stop herself and starts crying while Aarti's plate is moving in front of him.

She applies tilak on his head with tears in her eyes, Adhyay smilingly hugs her, anyone can guess her condition, everybody comes inside, and Adhyay comes inside while hugging Radhika.

(Scene change)

Adhyay is sitting on the stage with his friends and cousins, They all laugh at Raunak's silly jokes except for Adhyay because Adhyay's eyes are in front of from where Shravya will come in a few minutes.

Only then do all the lights get completely dimmed, only milky dim light remains on the path from where the bride is coming, except that all the lights are turned off completely.

Shravya is walking toward Adhyay with slow steps, her eyes are bent down, she does not want to lift her eyes and look at Adhyay because she knows that she will not be able to face those intense eyes.

Shravya knows very well that Adhyay is only looking at her which gives her goosebumps all over her body, she clutches her lehenga in her fist tightly, her heartbeat running very fast.

Adhyay knows her condition very well and still, he is not ready to take his eyes off her for a second. A constant smile on his face did not leave his lips for a second.

Adhyay knew very well that Shravya as a bride would look very beautiful but he did not know that by looking at his bride in front of him, he would lose his all senses completely like a crazy man.

All his friends and cousins of Adhyay are smiling softly seeing his condition because they have never seen Adhyay doing like this, even though they have never seen Adhyay looking at any girl.

As Shravya is getting closer to Adhyay, her heartbeat is increasing a lot. She knows very well that Adhyay is not taking his eyes off her at all, this thing is bothering her a lot.

Aditi hit her shoulder to her shoulder and said softly in her ear.

"Shravya I swear, I am telling you, this boy is not taking his eyes off you right now, I am telling you the truth, God knows what will happen to you tonight."

Shravya looks at her sister-in-law, Aditi laughs out loud with her hand on her lips, Shravya's heartbeat has increased, even more rapidly, she does not want to look at Adhyay at all, but her position is that she immediately turns back and runs inward, leave these teasing behind, The bride is equally nervous and the people around her do such things many times to tease her that she gets even more nervous.

Shravya has reached the steps of the stage, Adhyay also comes down and extends his hand in front of Shravya. She has touched Adhyay's hand many times and many times has held his hands in her for a long time but today she is not having the courage to hold his hand at all.

Adhyay's cousins and friends try to encourage him too by hooting loudly by calling his name.

"Adhyay.... Adhyay...."

Shravya places her hand in his with a slight shiver. Shravya's hand is so cold that even Adhyay is completely shocked by feeling the coolness of her hand.

He knows very well that it is too cold here but not so cold that Shravya becomes so cold because of this, he stands beside her and holds her hand in his warm one properly and says softly in her ear.

"Even if you faint from this coldness, still I will pick you up in my arms and marry you."

Shravya smiles lightly by pressing her lips between her teeth But still does not look at him, But now it is unbearable for Adhyay so he has to do something so that Shravya sees him at least one time.

Here is an update I hope you guys like it please let me know.

What will Adhyay do when Shravya looks at him?

Finally, they are going to marry.

This chapter may be too boring for some people, But I wanted to show some emotion here more than the wedding scene.

Stay safe and healthy.

Thank you so much for reading this book.
