" ye dil vil ka dhadkana kuch nahi

Tere sinye mei jo halchal h wo Mein huu"

•••••••••••••••••

Abeer' pov -

What Mantra was pandit ji reciting I was not able to understand anything and to tell you the truth, I was not even paying attention to that i was Just waiting for her and wanted to see her in bridal attire...As my bride.

I was looking towards the aisle when I heard Pandit ji's voice and my attention went towards him.

He asked me to keep the rice and flowers which was in my hand on the ground in front of me, i was doing that when I heard the voice of the Ruhan.

Bhai, Teri dhulan aa gayi..........., Ruhan said while i also heard the happy voices of the family members who were praising the beauty of my wife who's face was still covered with veil.

Finally.....

I murmured to myself and again I turned my gaze towards the aisle from where she was coming with Adi in a bridal attire.

She was looking epitome of beauty.........If I say that my heart is not beating loudly after seeing her as a MY bride then I am lying.......

I have always said that i can't love anyone, this love and affection is not for me but AFTER MEETING HER I have traveled from claiming to be unaware of love to loving her so much without whom It feels like there is no purpose in living

I have come to know one thing that the intentions(नियत) change but not the destiny(नियति)......And this girl is my destiny who's coming towards me in the bridal attire.....

I thought and got up from my place and took my steps towards where there were stairs So that I can help her to get inside the pavilion.

She stood near the stairs of the pavilion with Adi while I extended my hand to help her. Seeing my hand extended towards her, she was about to give her hand to me when Adi stops her from giving her hand in my hand while we all just looked adi in confusion.

Bhai first promise....aap di ka sath aur hath kabhi nahi chhodenge........, adi said with seriousness in his voice while i just smiled on his this Order yes it was like order not a request.

(You will never leave di's side and her hand again ..........)

I promise i will not, Not in this birth and not in the next 7 births either ............, i said while in response adi gave me his bright smile.

Now can I take my bride inside the pavillion?............., i asked looking at him while he nodded.

I again diverted my attention towards my bride who is currently playing with her bangles. To bring her attention towards me I cleared my throat and I was successful to get her attention.

I again extended my hand towards her and after this second she placed her small hand in mine.

Me and Adi helped the her to come inside the pavilion and then I took her towards the aginikund.

Bhai, we want to see the bhabhi face......lift the veil........, Aditi Ahana said in a loud voice .

Me too ....I am also dying to see her face .........,

I murmured to myself in mind while looking at her who's standing infront of me.

Can I?........, i asked while she nodded her head under the veil.

I lifted her veil and placed it between her head then looked at her, who had lowered her eyelashes due to shyness and there was a slight smile on her face with the natural blush adorned her cheeks.

Wo Hasti gayi, sharmati gayi,

Aur Mein aur Mera Dil

unki mohabbat mei khud ko hartey Gaye........

I murmured in my mind with a soft smile While feeling my gaze on herself, she looks towards me and her gaze meets mine and with that i again fall in love with her .

You're really looking my Bride.........., i said and kissed her forehead due to which I heard the lots of sound of hoting and because of this my shy wife became even more shy.

I smiled seeing my shy wife' face and at the same time Pandit ji asked us to sit and I helped Red in sitting infront of the Fire alter.

Pandit ji starts the marriage rituals and this time I performed all the rituals with pure heart and full devotion, not like the first time.

All the rituals were going on properly when the priest said something due to which I felt Red's body getting stiff.

Call the bride's parents for Kanya daan........, Pandit ji said and as soon as these words came out of his mouth I immediately looked at the her whose face had turned pale on hearing this.

She looks towards me while I saw tears in her eyes and immediately to hide her tears from me she breaks our eye contact then bows her head down and starts fisting with her fingers.

I placed my hand on her hand which was placed on her lap then softly intervined our fingers.

Red......,

I said and before that I would have said something else I heard the voice of the chote paa and choti maa.

We are here ..we are here pandit jii........, Chote Paa and Choti Maa said while I saw them coming inside the pavilions.

Chandni bache don't cry......, Choti maa said sitting next to red and the chote paa patted her head lovingly.

Red looked at both of them and murmured "thank you".

You are our daughter and this is our duty........, Chote paa said while choti maa nodded.

Pandit ji, please start the rituals ........, Choti ma said and pandit ji started the rituals.

I am transferring the responsibility of her well-being and happiness to you Abeer ....Take care of her ........, Chote Paa said and gave me her hand in mine.

I will chote paa........, i said while tightenting my grip around her hand and looking at my wife and then them.

After that' they both of them go out of the pavilion after completing this ritual.

Now the groom and bride stand up for the saptapaadi........, Pandit ji said and then I stood at my place and extended my hand towards Red to help her.

She caught my hand and stood up for the pheras.

For the first four pheras, the bride will be behind the groom and for the last three rounds, the groom will be behind the bride ..........., Pandit ji said and we both nodded.

I go and stand in front of the red and my back start facing her while the Pandit ji starts reciting the mantra.

We must have taken a step when I noticed that red was having trouble walking because of the lehenga.

Hath dijiye apna, biwi.........., i said while looking back to her and forwarding my hand's towards her.

( Give me your hand )

She placed her hand in mine with smile on her her face then we both completed saptapadi. After that Pandit ji asked us to come back and sit in our place.

Now Groom make wear that mangalsutra around bride neck........,Pandit ji said and I took the mangalsutra which had kept on the plate infront of us.

Before making her wearing this mangalsutra, I looked at the one who was already looking at me.

Pehna du Naa, biwi?...... reh lengi na mere sath Puri jindagi ?..........., I asked her with a smile.

Aapke bina Rehna mushkil h, bir ..........,she murmured slowly while I just smiled and took a deep breath before forwarding my hand's towards her neck.

I make a wore that' mangalsutra around her neck while at the same time I remembered how I had made her wear the mangalsutra on the wedding day and how by mistake one of my fingers touched her neck due to which she shivered.

Now put the vermilion in the bride's forehead .........., Pandit ji said and I took the vermilion box that was kept there on the plate.

I took sindoor from the vermilion box and looked at the Red who's eye's were shining with happiness and with the smile i moved her maangtika on side and filled her hairline with sindoor.

I noticed when I was filling her hairline, she closed her eyes and a tear fell from her eyes and also how she scrunched her nose because by mistake a little bit of vermilion falls on her nose.

All the family members start hoting, she opens her eyes and looks towards me while I wipe her happy tears.

I was going to wipe off the vermilion that had fallen on her nose when the Pandit ji spoke.

If the vermilion falls on bride nose It is said to be a sign of the husband's love for his wife........, pandit ji said.

And from today, You both are tied in one bond for 7 lives and i considered you as a husband and wife'.............., he said while Once again I heard the cheering and happy voices of my family.

Finally BIWI........,

I said looking at my wife.

Finally bir...........,

She said and touched the mangalsutra which i tied around her neck.

Both of us touched the feet of Pandit Ji then I helped Red in standing and getting down from the pavilion and we went to Dadi and Dadu to take their blessings.

We were about to bend down to touch the feet of them but dadi makes Red stop bowing infront of them.

you should not bow down chandni ... it's not good......., Dadi said then blessed her while keeping her hand in her head while i just silently stand there.

what are you looking at Abeer?, bow down and take blessings from both of us......., Dadu said and I bowed down to receive the blessings of both of them.

One by one we sought blessings from all the elders in the house, but I noticed that no one allowed the red to be bow down infront of them, saying that this is not good for her i wanted to ask why? ... it's not good for her but ignored that'.

Both of us go back to the pavilion where we took off our footwear before going inside the pavilion.

where are my shoes?.........I removed them here before going inside the pavilion........, I said when I saw that my footwear was not present there but the red ones were present there.

Bhai,Your shoes are with us ......., Adi said and came towards me with Ruhan and Abhi.

Toh bhai Abeer ab paise nikal......., Abhi said while i look at these three idiots who were standing in front of me.

(So brother Abeer, now take out the money......)

Because without getting money we will not return your shoes .........,  Ruhan said and they both nod.

Neeraj......., i called neeraj snd he immediately comes and stands in front of me

Get me the New pair of shoes.... Immediately....., I said while looking at those three with a smrik and after seeing the reaction there I felt like laughing loudly but I stopped myself with great difficulty.

Bhai, you can't do this with us and It's ritual that the girl's family steals the groom shoes and to get the shoes back the groom will have to pay them......., Adi said while complaining.

So paise do aur jhute lo.........., Abhi said this line like a song.

Jhute lo paise do .......,Adi and Ruhaan also said this line like a song .

Where were you both when these three were stealing my shoes?.........., I asked while looking towards aditi and ahana.

Bhai, we both tried to take shoes back from them but they cheated......, Aditi said and notices that she is glaring at Abhi while abhi just gave her smile also the same case I noticed that it is going on with Ruhan and Ahana.

Dii, Bhai se kahe na ki humhe jo chahiye wo de dein ........., Adi said while looking towards red.

( Dii , please tell bhai to give me what I want )

As soon as she hears Adi's words, Red looks towards me and signals me with her eyes that I should accept there wishes.

what do you guy want?..........., I asked looking towards me while the ruhan and abhi they come near my each ears and murmur softly which only I can able to hear.

Yaar, shadi kara de MERi apni behn se ........pyar karta hu usse..., Both of them say the same thing in my ears at the same time while hugging me.

(Friend, get me married to your sister...I love her)

i will think about it ..........., I said while breaking the hug.

What do these two want, Abeer? ......, choti maa asked me.

Right now I cannot tell you what these two wanted ...but they want something that was really special to me choti maa and still before completing there wishes i have to see whether these two are capable of that thing or not............, I said while looking at my choti maa and then looking at my best friend and my sisters.

Adi, what do you want?.........., While looking at him I ask who is doing his own calculations in his mind at this time.

Bhai, jhute do paise lo song meine gaa toh liya but I have the money, so what will I do with it? And I already have all the other things, so I am thinking what should I ask you for? ........., He said and everybody started laughing as soon as they heard it.

And then after thinking a lot I have decided that you should make me this promise that you will forgive any big mistake of mine if I ever make it in the future .........., Adi said while forwarding his one hand towards me.

Quite dangerous promise want, Adi......., Ruhan said while laughing.

I can't promise this.. and now all of you return my shoes ..., I said while adi went and stood near Chandni and started requesting her so that i can accept his wish.

Okay come here i promise .........., I said and as I said this, abhi immediately went and brought my shoes.

Come on, now it's time for chandni grihapravesh........., maa said and then we all' started going near the main gate of the house.

All the family members go inside the house, except me and Red because without Aarti and some other rituals we both cannot go inside the house.

Ma performs aarti for both of us and then brings a plate in front of the red plate in which there is yellow colour paste or some liquid type thing present there.

Chandni, dip your hand in this plate and then place your hand here on this wall..........., Ma said while pointing towards the wall next to the door and red did what maa said after this Ahana helped her in cleaning her hands.

Now touch this Kalash with your right foot and then put your right foot forward and place it in this Red alata (liquids) plate and enter the house  ..........., Maa said and Red did the same and everyone started showering the flower on us as we entered inside the house together.

Now all the rituals have been completed except one and for that all of you let's go to the living room .........., Choti maa said and we all went to the living room.

When we reach the living room, I see that there is a big bowl present there in which there is a lot of milk and also roses and opposite to it there are two stools for to sit.

Abeer' Chandni you both go and sit there ........, Choti maa said and I and red went and sit there.

So Abeer and Chandni, this game will be played in 3 rounds and whoever gets this ring multiple times, understand then that partner will going to rule whole life.........., maa said with smile and puts a ring inside the bowl.

I am on my sister's side ........, Adi said and goes and stands on the red side.

We both are on also on Bhabhi's side .........,Ruhan and Abhi said and both of them go and stand on the red side.

If now everyone is on Bhabhi's side then we both will towards our poor bhai's side........., Ahana Aditi said and both of them come and stand by my side.

We all are on both the side ..........., All the elders said and then the game begins.

In the first two rounds she wins once and then once me.

We were playing the third round and I find the ring inside the bowl but I do not take it out.

I look towards her who is Still looking for ring in the bowl while I take my hand towards her hand inside the bowl and slowly slide the ring onto her ring finger while she looked at me in shock.

I caught hold of her finger and took both our hands out of the bowl and showed her ring finger to everyone.

Wow you both won ........, Adi said and everyone starts clapping.

Chandni, now you let Abeer wear this ring.........., Maa says and passes a ring towards red.

She takes the ring from maa hand and then forward her other hand in front of me.

I extend my hand towards her and she puts that ring on my ring finger.

All the rituals are over and now everyone will have dinner and then go to their respective rooms......everyone must be very tired......., maa said while we all went to have our dinner.

After dinner, choti maa and chote paa helps grandmother and grandfather to go to their room.

Ahana Aditi take Chandni to Abeer's room........., maa said looking at both of them.

There's is no need, maa........, I said while at the same time' i noticed that everybody started giving me teasing looks as soon as they heard this.

I mean I am going with her so there in no need........, I said and at that time Neeraj comes there.

Sir, it's urgent ........., he said while i went towards him and also noticed that Ahana aditi helps chandni in going upstairs and then one by one everyone went to their respective rooms.

Author -

As per Adi's orders, Neeraj keeps Abeer confined in his words for some time.

Neeraj, I think we can talk about this topic tomorrow........, Abeer said in an irritated tone and when Neeraj feels that Abeer has become irritated also it can be dangerous for him now he immediately leaves from there and then Abeer starts going towards his room'.

When Abeer reaches in front of his room's door, he takes a deep breath and enters the room then locks it behind.

He sees that his bride was sitting on the centre of the bed and all the lights of the room remain completely dim.

With slow steps he goes towards the bed and sits in front of her.

Biwi........, abeer called her while chandni didn't said anything just nodded her head.

Bahut hi jayda khubsurat lag rahi h aap........., Abeer said and again Chandni doesn't say anything, she just shakes her head.

( you were really looking beautiful today..........)

why are you not saying anything?........, Abeer said while lifting Chandni's veil and when he lifts the veil, he immediately gets up from the bed.

ADI .........., He screams while Adi who was sitting on the bed in Chandni's place wearing a lehnga and a dupatta immediately gets off the bed.

ADI KE BACHE I WILL YOU TODAY............., Abeer said while going towards adi.

Bhai meri shadi hi nahi huyi bache kaha se honge.........., Adi said laughing and lifting his lehnga up from his feet he runs out of the room towards the balcony while Abeer went behind him in anger.

( Brother, I am not even married, where will the children come from..........,)

Dii bachaye mujhe apne pati se ....he will kill me today ........,  Adi said while going to the balcony and immediately goes to Chandni who is standing in the balcony and along with abeer's best friends and his sister.

Bhai don't kill me here is your wife..........., Adi said when he sees that Abeer comes to the balcony and then he immediately goes and hides behind Chandni while they all laughed at this scene except Abeer and adi.

What the fuck you all doing in my room?............, Abeer asks when he sees that all the youngsters are present in the balcony of his room.

nothing, now we all are leaving ..........., Abhi said with nervous smile while they all nodded together then started going from there.

ADI........, Abeer said and catches Adi from near his neck.

Diiii........, Adi screamed while chandni immediately tries to remove Adi's from Abeer grip.

Leave him bir......., Chandni said and at the last Abeer's leaves Adi and without waiting for any moment all the youngsters run away from there towards their rooms.

Abeer........., Chandni softly calls Abeer while he goes and sits on the swing like an irritated child.

Seeing Abeer's face, she understands that he is irritated and she goes and sits next to Abeer on the swing.

What happened?........., Chandni asks with smile on her face then puts her head on Abeer’s shoulder but Abeer didn't said anything he just kept quiet.

Batayein bhi bir.........., Chandni said and then places one of her hands on his cheeks.

I thought that just like all brides wait for their husbands on the wedding night, you too would be waiting for me in our room, but nothing like that happened.........., Abeer said, after hearing Abeer's complaint, Chandni starts laughing while Abeer Just glared at her.

That's it...wait, I will fulfill your wish right now ..........., Chandni said and immediately gets up from the swing.

Chandni is going towards the room but she turns back to look at him who is still sitting on the swing.

Bir, until you hear the jiggling sound of my bangles three times, do not come to my room ....... okay?..........,  Chandni said and Abeer nodded like an obedient child.

Chandni goes into the room then immediately goes into the closet and from there takes the gift which she was prepared for Abeer and after taking it comes into the room and goes towards the bed.

Chandni hides that gift under the pillow and then goes and sits in the centre of the bed and then covers her face with a veil.

Chandni jiggled her bangles three times and after a second Abeer came inside the room.

Chandni pov -

He comes inside the room, I see him from inside the veil instead of coming near me, he goes towards the door while i looked at him in confusion.

But my confusion goes away immediately when I see him locking the door then he comes and sits in front of me on the bed.

I have waited for this day,Red........, He said while lifting my veil then looking deeply into my eyes.

MUJHSE jayda nahi, Bir.........., I said while he took both my hands in his hands and kissed back of my hands one by one then he kissed my forehead while i just closed my eyes in sukoon.

I don't have anything to give you as your muhdikhayi ........I did not know about all this, otherwise I must have b ............., He was saying that but i cut him in the middle of his words.

But I have a something for you .........., I said looking at him while he raises one of his eyebrows in a questioning way.

First you sit properly here ........, I said and shifted a little on the bed and gave him space to sit properly on the bed.

As you wish Ma'am........., He said then sit comfortably on the bed while i took a long breaths.

Open your arm's Bir........., I said and he did as I said without any questions and then without thinking anything I placed myself on his lap.

By this action of mine he looks towards me in surprise but after a few seconds he put his arms around my body and hugged me.

Is my shy wife becoming bold?........, He asked me while pecking one of my cheeks while i just shooked my head in no with smile.

Abeer, are you ready for a surprise? ........., I asked while he nodded with excitement.

I took one of my hands near the pillow and took out the gift from there which I had prepared for him and hided it there.

I gave him that gift and asked him to open it and he starts opening that gift after opening the gift he looked at that carefully for some time.

hii dad.....i can't wait to meet you........., He read, that was written on that gift then looked at me.

Is it true?........., He asked me while i nodded while cupping both his cheeks.

(Gift)

Okay, so you saying that ....Our .. our Little one is present here?....in your belly?.....you're not pranking me right?... God...baby?...our baby?....

Red, did I succeed in the first attempt itself?......., he said while his words were fumbling in excitement and then he forwarded his shivering hands towards my bare belly to feel his baby.

Mr. Abeer' Singh Rathore...Yes, i am pregnant .. and Our little one is truly present in my belly who is 1 month and 3 weeks old ..........., i said and when i notices that his hands were shaking, i holds his hand and puts it on mine belly.

Hello... hel_lo our Little one...I am..i am your DAD.....i hope you're fine in your mother's belly........And after knowing about you, I am too very eager to meet you........, He said softly caressing my belly while i saw his eye's was filled with tears.

Thakan zanmo ki lamhon mei kab utarti h !!!"
