Pallavi's POV:
I was sitting in my room with Pooja and anusha akka,
"Akka, so you are finally getting married," Pooja said. "Pinni, are you getting married to Siddharth uncle." Abhi and Shreya asked while one was holding me from the back and the other was standing in front of me.
"Yes, and you both should call him Babai from now on," Anusha Akka said. "Why! " they asked. "Because your pinni is getting married to Siddharth Babai," Pooja said. I blushed at her words.
"Will Siddharth Babai play with us like Rajesh and Pavan Mama and will he give us gifts like Rajesh and Pavan Mama?" Abhi and Shreya asked. I chuckled at their questions. "Ask your Siddharth Babai about this," Amrutha Aunty said coming into the room.
mom and Amrutha Aunty came in. Amrutha Aunty gave me a dress with matching jewelry. I looked at Mom, while Amrutha Aunty said "Wear this for the engagement Pallavi, wear this and come down," what! engagement! I'm in a big shock now. Mom said marriage would be after my studies, but why do they want to have an engagement today?
I looked at Mom, Amrutha Aunty saw me worried, "Pallavi, we are just having Nichaya Thambulam and engagement today nanna, you can marry Siddharth after your graduation, don't worry." she said while caressing my head.
I sighed in relief. "Okay, Aunty.." I said. " Don't call me aunty... Call me Athayya, or you can call me Maa" she said. I nodded my head. Athayya gave me a forehead kiss and left with Mom.
I looked at the dress that Athayya gave me, it was a royal blue lehenga, with a necklace with matching earrings, bangles, and a jasmine flower garland.
Anusha Akka helped me to wear the lehenga, it was a designer and heavy lehenga. The lehenga came with a designer blouse and a net dupatta. After wearing the lehenga, I wear the necklace, earrings, and bangles. Akka slightly curled my hair at the bottom, placed jasmine flowers at the top, and secured them with hair pins. I did a little makeup applied soft rose pink lipstick and finally added a small bindi to complete my look.
"Pallavi, you look beautiful in this lehenga." akka said. "And the blush in her cheeks makes her more beautiful akka," Pooja said. I blushed more.
It was already evening, I was sitting in my room. When Mom came and took me down.
Siddharth's POV:
Everyone was making arrangements for the engagement, I was sitting on the couch on the right side because the groom should sit on the right and the bride should sit on his left side. I was waiting for her when Kavya got up from her chair and went towards the stairs where Pallavi was climbing down the stairs.
She was wearing a royal blue lehenga, her long hair which was falling till her thighs were curled at the end. I was wearing a royal blue kurta, we were wearing matching outfits unknowingly.
