Marriage indeed changes everything, doesn't it? One drop of that red powder and it changes your whole life being. Before this moment I never thought it like this. When I fell in love....I was too young to think of a marriage. And then when it was time, he was no more in my life and the idea of marriage never occured. But today everything has shuffled.....we are no more best friend.....no more lovers....no more ex....no more a couple....We Are Married. Just Married.

I look up at him, those cold grey eyes....even the flame of the holy fire cannot burn its coldness. Before I would get burnt into the intensity of those orbs, but today they are chilling me to death. Just a knot tied, and so much change??? Riya my neighbour is saying that, the smeared vermilion over my nose indicates that my husband will love me Very much. Huh! The look he's giving me right now shows anything but love.

The priest announces us as married couple. So, now this man is my husband. We both get up and move forward as Pandit ji asks us to take the blessing. We go and take blessing from all. The post-marriage rituals are done quickly and soon it's time for Vida... Once again I get proof that marriage changes everything. Otherwise why else would I have so much tears in eyes now??? When we were child, I'd say that I would never cry on my wedding day but now....everything feels so different....an unknown fear....uncertainty engulfing me even though I got married to the man I.....

I hug one by one every of my family members. My mummy kisses me and asks me to stay polite there. Other girls must starts getting all these advices from a long time before marriage but the joke of my luck! I'm hearing this while my Vida...

While taking blessing and farewell from my father I totally break down. So does my Pappa. My Pappa folds his hands together at Veer and says, "Dear, I have raised my daughter with.... "

But Veer doesn't let him finish and taking my Pappa's folded hands to his, he says earnestly, "I know uncle, you've raised your daughter with all love and dignity and made her a wonderful woman. Of course no one can cherish a girl as her father does. But all I can say is, as your daughter's protector, this time you're gonna have a tough competitor." saying this he smiles at my Pappa and my heart swells.

After a whole long day my Pappa lets out some happy tears. I look up at the handsome man in white sherwani beside me. My father didn't know him for a long time or enough time to give off his daughter's hand to him. Neither did he promise anything to my father. But still this man beside me just gave the best assurance to my father that anyone else could ever give. Maybe this is the reason I fell in love with him. He might appear as rotter as hell from outside but inside he is a pure gem.

My Pappa unites my hands with Veer's and says smiling at us both, "Now, I know, my doll is falling to a right hand."

Soon everything gets over and I'm inside the car with him. Bella wanted to come with me, but I refused telling her to stay by our parents' side. But Disha and Daksh has come. I'm no more crying but my eyes are still filled with tears. After a few seconds, I see Veer passing me a handkerchief. I look up at him but he doesn't stare back. I take that from him and look outside the window. Everything going backwards...so does my mind. And I recall last night's scenario.........

After the Singhanias left I ran to my room and fell on my bed crying my heart out. I was hurt 'cause he hurt me. First I agreed to the marriage only for my grudge over him. But marrying HIM, no that's not possible. I cannot marry or have some commitment with....with the man I cannot trust. Everything he had said sometime back were all true. And that was what making me more angry....more upset. I had already taken decision. After Bella's problem got solved, I'd move to Canada again. Staying here would only mean to running into him again and again and that was the last thing I wanted to do.
