A cliché plot and a little(?) embarrassing grammar and writing.
17 when I wrote this, and am embarrassed even to read it myself. So, please confine yourself from commenting the obvious; if you're going to continue that is.
As I promised myself, not...
Getting married in yellow saree just like my mom had been my dream.
The clock was showing 3 o'clock and most of the guests were now probably at their home sleeping.
The time of me becoming his wife legally and ritually was approaching. I was nervous.
Dressed in all yellow I might not be looking so good but getting married just like my mom was too much happiness for me.

The marriage of my parents had always been an ideal marriage for me. They fight, they argue but at least they are always together. Being there for each other as a pillar. Supporting each other to an infinite extent.
He was at the mandap waiting for me. I wiped some tears that were trying to escape my eyes. Everything was like a dream. Few more moments and my name will be added by his surname.
Some think that this reduces the equality but for me it means that he is promising my parents that he is going to take care of me. He'll protect me.
The priest was chanting the mantras bounding us together not only for this but the rest seven lifelines.
The 7 rounds around the fire and the kanyadanwas truly overwhelming me emotions.
The mangalsutra that he tied around my neck enmarked our relationship's beginning.

But what brought tears on my eyes was the chilling sensation the coin gave me when it touched my head carrying sindoor (vermillion) an indication of me being a married woman, who is ready to take new steps on her life.
To become a wife and to be a.... the thoughts were enough to make my tears to overflow.
"What happened?" He asked concerned.
"Just happy. " I smiled.

Have you ever thought that your family will be going along to your in-laws.
Well, mine is going. Because it's a different country.
We have to get married again and this time I have something as surprise for him.
"You're not getting the same room." His mom said to him.
"But why?" Childish
"Because you need to get married in our traditions first and again the Hindu rituals. You have to stay away from her for few days." She stated sternly that made his face fell.
Than he thought something. And he winked at me.
I wonder what is going on in that IQ 148 mind of his.
