Vikram was already standing on stage beside his parents. Slowly Sita brought Ishika on stage and made her stand opposite to Vikram. Kala and Jay stood beside her while Veer and Sita stood behind Ishika.
Jay, Kala, Ishika, Vikram and his parents Narayana and Tulsi also sat on the wooden stool. "Let's begin the function" the priest said to them. "Can I get boy's and girl's horoscope here" the priest asked the families.
Tulsi passed the horoscope to him while Sita passed the Ishika's. The priest saw both horoscopes and calculated something on his fingers. And finally said in loud voice.
"These horoscopes matched well. And 2 auspicious date are showing; one is after a month. And another one is after 4 months. Amma, which date you guys want to fix?". The priest asked the Nirmala and Devi, Vikram's grandmother.
Both ladies discussed and said to fix the date, which is in a month. Then the priest took out a white paper, applying turmeric and vermillion on 4 sides of the paper. He wrote something in the paper.
"Tedi 14.12.20-- sukravaramu, ekadashi thidi kudina subhadinamandu udayam 6:30 paiga 8:00 loga thula lagnamandu;
Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh nivasamulu ayna Late.Smt.Sujatha Reddy, Late.Sri.Rajesh Reddy garla kumarte, Chi.Sow.Ishika Reddy ane kanyarathnamunu..
Hyderabad, Telangana nivasamulu ayna Smt.Tulsi Murthy, Sri.Narayana Murthy garla jeshta kumarudu, Chi.Vikram Murthy ane varunuki ichi.
Kanyadana vivaha subhamuhurthamu varuni nandu jarugulaguna pedalache nischayampabadina vivaha subha lagna patrika".[T/N:- On good day of 14.12.20--, Friday morning from 6:30 to 8:00am,
Late.Smt.Sujatha Reddy & Late.Sri.Rajesh Reddy's daughter Chi.Sow.Ishika Reddy as Bride
And Smt.Tulsi Murthy & Sri.Narayana Murthy's eldest son Chi.Vikram Murthy as groom
The elders had decided to marry them]The priest said loudly so everyone could hear it; no one talked when he was saying the dates for marriage, everyone was listening to him.
"Now, bride and groom parents may exchange the thambulam" the priest said to them. Narayana and Tulsi gave the plate filled with saree, gold jewells, set of bangles with sweets to Kala and Jay.
Kala and Jay gave the plates filled with the men formal shirt and pant with gold bracelet along with some sweet to Vikram parents.
"Bring the rings for girl and boy", the priest said while Ishika and Vikram stood beside eachother.
Jyothi passed the ring for the Ishika, while Tulsi passed the ring for Vikram.
Vikram forward his hand and asked slowly, "May I?". To which Ishika nodded shyly and gave her hand to him. Vikram put the ring to her finger. A loud cheers and claps can be heard. Yash and Rithvik blasted the flower petals shower. Then Ishika did the same.
"Nischitartham completes here" the priest says. And everyone starts to congratulate them and take some family photos. And even had their lunch in Reddy's back yard.
Everyone was in the living room talking about where to do marriage, except Ishika and Vikram. They left the couples to have some time.
Around evening, Murthy's family retired to their home as it was getting late. And everyone was exhausted, that some people didn't had their dinner and directly slept while other were busy in packing.
Tomorrow everyone is going to Hyderabad for chain changing of Sita's thali. But they are so tired that they don't want to travel again. But the elders had their words.
Finally it was decided they would go by private jets of Reddy's and Yadav's. It was Vijay's idea. They were happy because traveling for 4 hrs is better to travel for a 1hr.
Sita was packing her and Veer's clothes in the suitcase. When Veer hugged her from behind, he nuzzled his nose on her neck.
"You better sleep with me today" he said while encircling his hands around her waist. Sita smiled lightly and just 'hum'ed to him.
After packing, they both slept hugging each other.

Around 11:30am everyone was ready to go to Hyderabad. Yadav's, Reddy's and even Nayak's personal helicopters were parking in the helipad.Soon everyone departed from Vijayawada to Hyderabad. Yadav's family had already prepared rooms for them. And it's lunch time. The servants served them lunch and everyone had a noon nap.
***
Next day, there was small setup done in front of pooja room. Some close relatives came to Yadav's mansion.Nirmala knocked on Sita's room door. Veer opened the door, and let his grandmother in. Nirmala went inside and sat on the sofa. Sita came from the washroom and sat beside her.
"Sita, wear this saree during the function" Nirmala gave her a beautiful saree, with matching jewels.
"Sare, Ammamma". Sita took the saree. Nirmala went outside. Veer and Sita got ready for pooja.
Sita was made to sit on a wooden plank. Later, 5 married womens surrounded her and untied the yellow thread. And put that thali bootu in the gold chain with other gold, black and red beads.
And finally made Sita wear it. One by one everyone blessed her with sacred yellow rice.
"May god bless you with alot of childrens" Indraja, Urmila's aunt blessed the her.
"We don't need alot. 2 or 3 childrens are enough for us" making everyone laugh, and only then Veer understood, he didn't say inside his mind but said out loud. On other hand, Sita was blushing hard.
