Rana's Pov:

I sit down on the mandapam while the priest starts chanting. Miheeka is sitting down next to me and I can tell she is nervous.

Our parents didn't let us see each other for a while so I have no clue how she's feeling right now. I stay there lost in my own trance until the priest gives me the mangal sutra and instructs me to tie three knots around her neck. I stand up and walk towards her. This is it, this is the moment both of our lives change forever.

She's officially going to be mine forever. She looks up, a tear falling down her perfect face. Her light brown eyes are complemented with eyeshadow and mascara.

I see a bit of her belly sticking out from the sari and I remember that she's carrying a part of me.

I reassuringly smile at her and tie the three knots.

Everyone starts cheering and throwing akshintalu at us.

"My baby's married," Ma says emotionally through her tears and everyone chuckles.


*Time skip to the reception*


I'm standing next to Miheeka with a glass of wine in my hand. Everyone around is chatting in small circles and eating.

I take a sip of the wine, " So we are married now."

She looks up at me with a smile and takes my hand in hers.

"We are."

I squeeze her hand as I look around. Ma apologized to both of us a few days ago and of course we forgave her. Everything feels so perfect right now and I could not be more excited for this new phase in me and Miheeka's lives.

I see Anushka and Prabhas walking towards us with their food.

"How are the newlyweds?" Prabhas says with a teasing smile. I roll my eyes at him and Miheeka laughs.

"I'll tell you tomorrow morning," I say to him with a wink. Miheeka smacks my arm lightly and Anushka stifles her laughter.

"Seriously though, congratulations, it was beautiful," Anushka puts her hand on my shoulder and hugs Miheeka.

"It's all fun and games till you really get into married life," Prabhas complains while crossing his hands over his chest. I can't help but shake my head at him and laugh as Anushka just rolls her eyes at him while talking to Miheeka.

"I'm so jealous that you guys are going on your honeymoon, it's been forever since I've gone on vacation," Anushka pouts while leaning against Miheeka.

"Once you two figure things out, you will go too, right," Miheeka adds in her voice full of excitement.

"Yup, hopefully," Anushka says while glancing at Prabhas.

"Anyway, I was thinking about my baby shower. Why don't all three of us have a combined one," Miheeka's eyes brighten as she starts to drift the conversation towards our baby.

"That would be so fun, and if we do it in a few months we'll all know the gender of the babies," Anushka adds with a smile and the two of them fall into conversation about their baby shower.

I turn to look at Prabhas who is looking at Anushka with a smile. I couch lightly and he looks at me a little flustered.

"You look like the newly wed not me," I tease him as he rolls his eyes.

"Anyway, congrats, I didn't think you'd find anyone willing to put up with you for the rest of their life," He crosses his arms and smirks.

"Ya well I got lucky with her," I say, while turning and looking at Miheeka who has a pink blush covering her glowing face. I see Anushka pinch her arm lightly and whisper to her when our eyes interlock and I mouth an I love you to her.
