5-The Shock

Ishani's POV:

I was standing at the corner of the venue at looking at the surroundings because I don't know anyone here that's why I am at the corner so no one can see me and I am introvert also so that's why I don't like public attention

Suddenly dadi called me from behind I turned around and she immediately held my hand and took me to a room I don't know why as soon as we enter the room she locked the door from inside she was holding my hand so harshly that it left marks on my hand but I am used to it

Dadi: Get ready

Me: For what?

Dadi: For your marriage

Me: What my marriage what are you saying dadi?

Dadi: yaa you are getting married right now in this mandap with the groom because the bride left

As soon as she said that my eyes were filled with tears and they started spiliing out of my eyes

Me: Da... Da... Dadi what are you saying I don't want to get married (I said while crying and hiccuping)

Dadi: You have to no one is asking for your permission

Me: Why are you forcing me let me talk to papa

I was going to the door but she immediately held my hand and threw me on the bed harshly

Dadi: If you will tell him anything about this than you will regret it just get ready

I again got on my feet and was going to the door because I don't want to get married I want to study but she held my hand so harshly I tried to free my hand but she slapped me so hard that my lips started getting bleed

Dadi: Just get ready or else you know what can I do

Someone knocked on the door I think it is papa

Dadi: Just wash your face go fast

After I washed my face dadi opened the door and papa and Maa came inside

Papa: What happened

Dadi: Nothing she is ready

Papa looked at me and came towards me

Papa: Beta paaka do you want to marry I am not forcing you it's your decision

I looked at dadi she was glaring at me and then I looked at papa I love him very much yes he did not know that dadi behaves like this to me but he always kept me as princess

Me: No papa I am ready what you choose is always right for me

Papa: Pakka

With bittersweet smile I replied

Me: Yes

Suddenly priti aunty came inside and she looked at me

Aunty: Beta I am not forcing you I know it's hard for you but will you marry my son his bride ran away

Dadi: Yes priti she is ready you all go outside I will make her ready

Aunty: Really you are ready

I nodded and she hugged me immediately

Aunty: Thank you bache thank you very much I will help her and make her ready

Dadi: ok so let's all go outside

Aunty: I will take care of her Pankti can you please check on advit he will not listen to me

My mom nodded and just like that they all went out of the room while dadi glaring at me telling that don't dare to do anything

Aunty : See I am sorry you have to marry like this

Me: No aunty it's not your fault please don't say sorry

Aunty: OK now we don't have time just go and change

I nooded and went inside the bathroom to change

As soon as I entered the bathroom Tears started spitting out of my eyes in just one day my life got changed the thing about which I never thought happened I have to marry someone whom I never saw and don't know also really why this always happens to me only

No ishu now stop crying you have to be strong just get ready fast aunty is waiting

Just like that i got started getting ready and after that i entered the room aunty helped me in getting ready

After that aunty went out and Maa and papa came inside as soon as they saw their eyes were filled with tears

I asked: Why are you both crying?

Maa: Meri gudiya itni badi ho gayi hai ki pata hi nahi chala aaj shadi ho rahi hai uski

Papa: Meri princess sach me bohot jaldi badi ho gayi she is looking like a Angel on earth

(He said while kissing my forehead)

Maa: Beta pakka you are sure na we don't want to pressurize you

Ishani: Yaa maa I am ready And I love you both very much (I said while hugging them)

They both said in unison: We love you more bachhe

And just like that we all had tears in our eyes after that someone came and call me for the mandap and I left

Advit's POV:

After some time they called me in the mandap i am marrying the girl whom I don't know whom I never saw but I don't give a shit about her I am marrying her just for reputation

I was sitting in the mandap when suddenly panditji said to bring the bride

After some time she came down the aisle I have not seen her but I can say that by the gossips happening behind me

One lady: Wooww she is so beautiful

Second lady: Yaa she just looks like an angel

A boy : Wow if she was not getting married than I would had proposed her

What are they all saying I am not seeing at her because I don't want to no one can be more beautiful than my ashi

I can sense that she is beside me Maa helped her to sit shenow she is siting beside me I don't know her name and I am getting married to her panjitji again started doing the mantras

I just glanced at her one time but I can see her eyes is red she cried but why

Why do I care?

Panditji: Kanyadan ke liye vadhu ke mata pita age aiye

Uncle and aunty came and started doing the rituals they pur her hand on mine her hand gave me a jolt I don't know why but her hands are so small in front of mine

After that panditji again spoke

Panditji: Vadhu ke gale mai mangalsutra aur maang mai sindoor bhariye

I took the mangalsutra and made her wear that my fingers got brushed to her neck and she stiffened after that I put the vermillion in her hairline and some fell on her nose someone said from behind

A lady: The vermillion fell on her nose her husband will love her very much

Huhhhh!! What are they saying I will love her never ever I can never love her after that we dud pheras

Pandit ji : Isi ke sath ye vivah sampan hua ab se ap do pati patni hai ab ap dono bado ke ashirvad le lijiye

First we bent to touch his feet than we took went to touch her dadi's feet she gave me blessing but not her but I ignored it

Than we went to take blessings from my and her parents

Papa: Beta ab tum mujhe apne papa his samjo nahi samjo nahi balki mai tumhara hi papa hu so koi bhi problem ho to mujhe batana thik hai

And she just nodded

Ishani's POV:

I walked down the aisle and everyone's attention went to me I was feeling scared nervous all the things from starting but now it is increasing because I don't like attention and they all are watching at me only but my soon to be husband whose name I also don't know didn't even spare a glance at me

The thing I know is that he was marrying to the live of his life but she ran away so I can understand his pain I sat beside him the rituals started after some time pandit ji called my parents for kanyadan I was really felling heavy but I did not let them spill they put my hand on his ohhh my gosh his hands are too big than mine

After some time he put mangalsutra on my neck hus fingers brushed my neck and it's sent a jolt to my whole body he filled my hairline with vermillion and as soon as it drop om my head I can fill it's weight the responsibilities and like that the tears which I have been holding from so long started coming from my eyes

Just like that the new chapter of my life started
