" Aha a wedding feast should be like this " people credited that tasteful feast.

By afternoon 3 o clock apart from family members other left the region after participating in Dhaare.

Abhijit and Vatsala sat next to eachother while the whole family stood infront of them.

" Come on Vatsala you should feed him first " Vachi urged Vatsala.

" Aiyoo no no Bhava should feed our vatsu first " Krishnaveni interrupted.

" No way I am groom's sister my words should be followed Vatsala should feed him first " Vachi said.

" Vachi let them eat na they must be hungry" Sawant said.

" Keep quiet " Sreesha silenced him.

" Atte I am your team ..... Mava feed her " Sreesha took a balushahi from his plate and gave to Abhijith.

Before Vachi could speak further Vedant closed her mouth and pulled her back.

Abhijith held the sweet infront of Vatsala gesturing her to eat.

" Hope no one will tease again " Praying to God Vatsala took a bite of sweet.

" Oooooooooo" the rest clapped merrily.

" Enough enough let them eat now " Shrileela intervened between and took Dhruva's hand in hers.

" Appa is calling you go there " She sendlt away her son and turned to rest.

" Everyone is waiting there for you all come let's go they will have there meal .... Vatsu serve food to him " Shrileela took everyone with her leaving behind Abhi Vatsu.

From the morning they both were hungry not even a drop of water they had in between. Abhijith started eating in a go.

" One second one second " Vatsala said making Abhijith to pause. She removed the garlands from him and took off his Shalya. As he already started eating Vatsala helped him to loosen his shirt buttons.

" Eat now " She smiled.

Abhijith heaved out a sigh of relief and started eating again and smiled at her.

Vatsala too removed Garlands around her neck and kept it aside. Abhijit looked around find none but Vatsala.

" Must ask her directly no other ways " He thought.

" Vatsala little more rice " He said literally Calling her name for first time.

Vatsala served rice to him until he finishes his meal. After getting fully satisfied Abhijith realised that Vatsala has still not even touched her plate.

" Sorry I was soo hungry that I didn't recognise that you are not eating .... Sorry sorry please be seated I will serve you " Abhijith stood up quickly.

" Aiyoo it's all right you don't do that " Vatsala said.

" I will wait till you finish your meal " Abhijith said sitting back in his chair.

" How can I eat if he sit like this looking at me " Vatsala gulped.

She quickly finished that little food in her plate and washed her hands.

" Done " She smiled.

The other side the elders were talking about the further rituals.

" We can't reach Hyderabad in a go right we shall arrange for Grihapravesh in post wedding feast itself anyhow you all should come that day na we shall conduct reception too on the same day " Yashraj suggested.

" Shanti muhurta?" Ananth asked.

" Anantha Rayre ( respected word ) today is auspicious decision is yours " Purohit said.

" That's right too what will they do until post wedding feast it will be ok if we arrange for shanti muhurta today itself " Bhuvan said.

Ladies looked at Satyajit, who was quite.

" Ok fine " He too agreed.

Abhijit's brothers in law sneaked out towards the terrace to meet Abhijith.

Hearing to news Abhijith was shocked. He didn't expected everything happens this much sooner.

" You mean first night ?!" He exclaimed.

" 100% yes " Rohit laughed.

" Bhava what to do know !?" Abhijit shooked him vigorously.

Vedant and Sumanth started to laugh even more looking at Abhijith.

" That you must decide Abhi we can't dictate you " Sumanth teased.

" Be quick Abhi .... Babli wants a playmate " Vedant giggled cuddling his little daughter who grinned catching her father's nose.

" Bhava" Abhijith winced.

" What's your problem ? It's normal thing only " Rohit patted his shoulder.

" But Bhava , I don't know how to react .... I mean .... I can't explain" Abhijith hesitated.

Virat and Sawant were hiding behind the pillar as they were only Bachelors of the gang but still they can't miss Abhi's plight.

" Brother if we both were also married today we could have also teased him now missed the chance " Sawant huffed.

" Now my sister is married my line cleared .... Don't know what about you " Virat giggled.

" I doubt that my parents are planning for it or what ..... I must search one for myself " Sawant sighed.

Finding Anish going to speak something they both started to concentrate towards them.

" Abhi I choose to be Frank " Anish started.

" First night means not only meant for love making , till now you both have not shared a lone moment together some or the other way you were among us and hence no privacy for you to know each other ..... Now in the name of first night before starting your life together it's a chance for you both to know each other to understand your feelings well because to lead a life together first you must know about yourselves " Anish said smiling at.

" It's my experience me and your sister also took next step after knowing ourselves better that's why honeymoon is also there " He smiled again.

Abhijith too gave out a sheepish smile.

" Don't worry Abhi just a kiss is enough ..... Just a kiss with love is enough to mark her as yours " He patted his shoulder.

The rest also smiled " we were kidding you Abhi don't worry " Vedant giggled.

Vasishta came running towards Abhijith with his phone.

" Mava , Samrat uncle is calling " He forwarded his hand towards him.

Abhijith took the phone from him quickly.

" Samrat " He was very happy and excited.

" Hello Abhi " Samrat greeted from other side.
