Mom....... What is wrong with you? How can you think that she will be perfect for me? Listen I just came here because you insisted me no not insisted me but blackmailed me to come here or else visiting India so soon was no where in my plans. Mom ple...
Then my Masi ( mother's sister) brought a beautiful silver anklets for me which she had especially designed for me and I must they were looking mesmerizing when she hooked them around my legs.
The day finally ended with the hectic and a long road of wedding planning and preparations for the big day ahead and since I was already drained out due to the never ending rituals I departed to take some rest as tommorow it is going to be more eventful. Sighing I was thinking of the roller coaster turn my life was taking into, for a bride the D-day dawns with a turmoil of emotions. There is a feeling of excitement & joy, unexplained butterflies in the stomach but for me it was full of nervousness, anxiety, crankiness, and fear. So many feelings coming together to make me feel like a bag full of varied emotions. And rightly so, it is the life-changing event and beginning of the rest of your life after all. Thinking about my wedding I again slipped into pool of endless thoughts......
"However, apart from witnessing the emotional roller coaster, you are also gonna be thinking A LOT on your wedding day! Endless mindless thoughts will keep crossing your mind until you are done with the day. Right from some stupid thoughts to some last moment panic-arising thoughts, your mind will be accelerating on a high speed on the D-day!" These words of my elder sister who got married to the love of her life were ringing in my ears she was all jittery about her wedding and considering my condition she explained me the turmoil she went through during her D- day inspite of marrying the person she was so dedicated to and here I was totally clueless about my groom.....thinking about all these I slipped into a deep slumber as a furiously glaring image of Siddhi crossed my mind for not getting enough sleep leading an invitation for dark circles ruining her efforts to groom me for my D-Day.
Advait's pov: The next day was less eventful for me as I was least required for the rituals and spended most of my time in checking with the arrangements of the wedding and guests.
Atlast the day ended with a swift I entered my room only to be thrown out by my lovely siblings as they wanted to make some changes in it's interior cz my room sucks and screams depression as per them. Shaking my head at their silliness and tired of the pre wedding rituals I entered our guest room for some rest. As soon my body hit on the bed I started thinking about the changes that will come along with the wedding,
"As much as it's exciting & nerve-wracking for a bride to bid adieu to her home & family and embark on this new journey of marital bliss, it's equally jittery & rousing for a groom to spend the rest of his life with his special someone. And why not? After all, the decision of getting married does bring along a mix-platter of emotions for the groom as well."and now I understand the meaning of these words Bhai said right before his wedding when we were teasing him for his nervousness. Thinking of Bhai tears started filling in my eyes as finally I was able to overcome my fears all because of him and his guidance though he is not with us but whenever I feel lost and lonely his guiding soul always screeches a path for me in the dark. There is a feeling of excitement, cheerfulness & delight but also a sense of fear, anxiety & nervousness thinking about how will siya react on finding me as the groom, I know I am betraying her again but it is needed at this moment. Especially when finally it's the D-day, zillions of thoughts are running through my mind until it's all done and dusted. Whether it's as trivial of thought as 'Am I looking good?', 'Does this safa match with the sherwani?' or 'Will she accept me?' or something significantly serious like 'Will I be able to make a great husband?', there are all sorts of thoughts that are crossing my mind. Finally putting a leash over these running train of thoughts I decided to sleep as tommorow we have to leave early morning as the venue for the marriage decide is rudraprayg as siya always wanted to get married in an open venue between mountains and rivers and deciding on the venue is the least I could do for her.... The famed town of Rudraprayag is named after the Rudra avatar of Lord Shiva. This heavenly town is encircled by the emerald lakes, glaciers, foaming rivers and silver streams.
(The pristine town of Rudraprayag is nestled on the holy confluence of Alaknanda and Mandakini rivers, at 34 km from Srinagar (Garhwal). It is perched at an average elevation of 895 metres about 2,936 feet above sea level.
Rudraprayag is one of the Panch Prayag or five confluences of Alaknanda River. Rudraprayag is blessed with nature's bounty, the climate of which depends upon the height of the region.)
