All the girls got excited and  ran to the balcony and were watching the groom and all other handsome men. Suddenly nandini came and ask maitri why don't you also come and see your handsome king. Hearing all these maitri heart started beating fast. Her hands were sweating. She instantly clutched her lehnga and said no you go and see.

All the girls came inside the room and sighed that all of them went to take rest and now they are not able to ogle them.

Hearing maitris name his heart started beating so fast.. Only he know how eagerly he want to see her... Just once. Coming  out of his thought he went towards the mandap and started doing the puja. Till then all the girls went to call maitri.

Maitri was sitting alone in front if her mirror. Decked up in heavy lehnga with all king of jewelry from toe ring to waist band, flower adorning her hair and two heavy dupatta one was dropped around her body and other was covering her whole face . Am I looking good will he like me will I be able to keep him happy I don't want to leave my family, how I will live without them, he is ten years older than me will he understand me, with all these questions a lone tear escape her eyes. Suddenly all the girls entered her chamber bringing her out of her thoughts.

Maitri you look so beautiful, I bet your king won't be able to look away from you. See I told you these blouse will look so good on you it's perfect for you wedding night. All the girls laughed at her sister in laws statement... Maitri got shy and started fidgeting with the end of ger dupatta. Okh now stop these and take the coconut and kalash in your hand you have to keep this in temple then you will go to mandap.

But bhabhi this blouse is too short my all waist is visible and you have made most of my blouse like that only and only strings are holding the back of the blouse. Maitri you  are  going to be a newly wed so these are nothing. You are beautiful carry them with confident and not you all blouse are like that so chill and please let your king have some "ankho ko sookon " ( peace to the eyes) teased her sister in law. Now let's go we are getting late said her bhabhi and they all started moving . Bhabhi wait a minute  saying this maitri took the knife and kept it inside her waistband sticking it at the end of her lehnga. Maitri and nandini gave a teasing smile to her.

Over hear the var puja was about to finish and someone was desperately waiting to see her bride . ... But she was nowhere to be seen. Suddenly everyone got silent and heavy sound of anklet came in his ears.. He knew she is her but she is at his back and he can't turn otherwise it  would be disrespectful.

Maitri reached near mandap and saw a huge bulky man was sitting beside the priest she instantly lowered her eyes and went toward the temple put the kalash in front of the God and all of them prayed to him.  Please keep my people and all my family like this forever. He so big radhakrishna... I am nothing in front him please help me to fullfill whatever you are making me to do radhakrishna I want nothing just love. Saying this she opened her eyes and her bhabhi took her toward the mandap. The more they are nearing the more both of there heart is beating fast .
