I closed my eyes to savor the feeling that I'm married now. Then I felt Mrithun fill my forehead partition once again but this time he used kungumam. Lol!
I let out a chuckle and opened my blurred eyes to look at him. He smiled at me and wiped my eyes and gave a sweet forehead kiss making me blush even more.
"Now, you are my pondati!" (means wife in Tamil) he said with a proud and cocky smirk on his face making me fall for him even more. everyone cheered for us and congratulated us.
They asked Mrithun to put the metti( Toe ring) on my toes and take seven rounds around the fire, Completing our marriage. With that pandit Ji announced us as 'Husband and wife.'
We both stood up and got the blessing from our elders and parents. Then our siblings hugged us tightly making us laugh at them and completed the rest of the rituals.
Its finally time for me to take a leave from here to my new home leaving my parent's, my sister's and my grandmother behind to the new chapter. Leaving is never a easy task, we leave our home to another but the warmth of our space may or may not be received in another space.
Within a blink I'm inside the car and looking through the window were my family stands their eyes filled with tears. My dad took hold of my hand and embraced me before giving away me to my husband. I was his little girl and now I am women for another men.
Elders said the auspicious time has neared and asked us to leave but I was not ready... I got out of the car and runned towards my family and got into their embrace once again.
"Amma( Mom) I can't... please!" I said but she couldn't help but shake her head and gave me her most sweet smile and kissed my forehead. Then led me towards Mrithun. I look up at him and he just took me into his embrace and got us inside the car.
He hasn't spoken a word but his silent promise gave me strength. Is this moral support? Our eyes met and said, " Trust me." and I lost myself into him. Once the car started my eyes never left the people who raised me. Is this how it feels once we get married? Is this right?
So many question popped into me but my trance was got broken by my husband. He asked the driver to stop the car and got out in the middle of highway. He took off his garland and came to my side to open the door for me.
I looked up at him with questioned face. He just smiled and took off my garland and took my hands into his. There at distance I could see a huge banyan tree and few people standing under the shade drinking fresh sugar cane juice.
