Farz:A Tale Of Duty And Devotion ...

chapter 25

Only 5 days  were left for the marriage.
Both the families were busy in the preparation as they didn't want to leave any stone unturned to make it grand and memorable .

Abhimanyu was looking at the setting sun leaning on the railing in his balcony lost in his thoughts.
Riddhima cleared her throat breaking his trance and forwarded the coffee mug .
He took it silently and she smiled looking at her brother.

Worried !!! She asked caressing his arm lightly.
No ,but a little nervous...he accepted and she hummed asking him to continue.
I don't know if I will be able to keep her happy and would be able to keep up to her expectations....he confessed making Ridhima smile.

But I am preety confident about you . The way you are thinking about her happiness,   her expectations, giving her priority over yourself....that's what a girl want in her partner. I know loving again would be a bit difficult for you but it will happen gradually.

Go with the flow and don't ponder about it much . Things will workout once you guys will start leaving together. You both  will get to know more about each other lives and will develop a mutual understanding about things with time Ridhima explained.

I didn't know you can talk sensibly too sometimes ... Abhimanyu said gaining a light punch from her and both laughed.
I hope it helps....she said .

It does ....he said raising the coffee mug making her huff knowing that he won't give her credit that easily.
Maa is happy....he stated sipping his coffee .

Happy ...she is over the moon. She loves Mishka more then us...Ridhima said and he smiled nodding his head.

Here Gyatri Devi took out some jwellery boxes from her locker and smiled caressing the boxes with teary eyes .
Daadi why were you calling me ..... Mishka asked entering the room and Gyatri ji smiled patting  the couch asking her to sit beside her .

These are for you .....she said giving the boxes to Mishka making her frown .
She opened the boxes one by one to find gold and diamond jewellery and she immediately recognised that they belonged to her mother as she had seen them in pictures .

She caressed the necklace and bangles trying to feel her mother through them .
She hugged her Daadi and sobbed remembering her parents.

Her father had many dreams regarding her marriage and Mishka was missing him a lot these days but held her emotions back in front of Gyatri Devi but Today she just let the tears flow in the embrace of her Daadi .

I don't want to leave you Daadi. I want to be with you ....she cried making Gyatri ji emotional too .
Gyatri ji held her Grand daughter close to her chest kissing her hairs repeatedly.

Mishka fell asleep in her Daadi's arms after her emotional meltdown.
Gyatri ji caressed her hairs lovingly and prayed to God to bless her child with happiness and a prosperous future.

Next day Mishka went to the parlour as from tomorrow the rituals will start and she was not allowed to step outside after that .
Ridhima and Pooja were also there with her .

It was bridal package for Mishka while Ridhima and Pooja chose according to their needs .
Mishka was paranoid when asked for Brazilian bikini wax. She denied instantly knowing how much it would hurt her but Ridhima and Pooja teased her making her blush .

After a lot of convening Mishka finally gave in although she knew nothing of that sort will happen on their  first night given their present circumstances.

After finishing up their session they decided to have lunch .
Mishka was having some pain down there due to waxing and as per the beautician it will take at least 12 hrs to get back to normal.
