Karthik's POV:
" Sir, they are at the entrance gate. It's time that you and the Queen make your presence to welcome them." One of our servants said with a small bow and smile. I passed him a small smile and nodded and took a moment to look at my wife. She looked magnificent in the white saree that my heart felt like exploding trying to take in all of her.
The side hook that she had been trying to put together had disturbed my beautiful sight. I walked to her seated form and cleared my throat. She immediately stood up and lost her balance. This lady here is trying so much to stand even after I advised her not to.
" Don't try." I spoke softly holding her by her arm.
" You can leave me. I'm good." She mumbled trying to take her hand away from my grip.
" I don't want you with me to welcome them. It would be inappropriate to carry you in front of them. We'll meet them in the living room. What do you think?" I asked but analysing her expression, I knew that she was hurt by my decision.
" This is not to offend you, my Angel. I don't want you to stress yourself. Please understand." I pleaded and she nodded looking at her bangles in the mirror.
" I feel that this would look great on you. Please. For me." I pleaded with my eyes while her eyes scanned the small pearl chain that I got with a medium-sized sapphire embedded in the middle. She was about to protest but I gently pulled her back against my chest and slid her hair to the front.
" Shhhh." I shushed her and hooked it around her neck. There was this little astonishment in her eyes looking at my audacity but her small hands immediately reached the pearls caressing it. I secured it at the end and placed a small kiss on her shoulder making her eyes wide.
" I need to hurry up. They are here. I'll pick you up once they are in. Stay safe." I patted her cheeks and rushed out. They were almost in the foyer. Karim personally took care of their travelling right from the start and I wish they had no inconvenience.
"Namaste." I greeted them with a small smile while the ladies of the Palace welcomed them with the flowers and Tilak.
I walked them inside the living room and asked them to sit. The Queens though smiled at me, had a question in their eyes. Where is my Queen?
