Divisha's POV

Once in a while, there was a little girl who used to listen pariyon ki kahani from her Dadi. She used to imagine that someday a prince will come from somewhere, far away from the moon riding his white horse to take her with him. Little did she knew that her prince, in real life, would come and take her with him, to make his queen. A fairytale is coming to life in true senses.

I sat in my room thanking Mahadev for giving me such a beautiful and content life. I had everything for which I'll always be more than grateful. I have a very loving family, or I must say I have two loving families now. I have three bestfriends who are always there with me. And now I have my fiancee, whose love for me knows no bounds. The fairytale Dadi used to tell me, is happening, where I'm the princess and Ansh is the prince, who will come, and take me with him. I hope I could tell my younger self that all her fairytale dreams are gonna be true.

Dekha jaye agar, toh ye kal hi ki toh baat hai, I was running behind maa and chachi asking toffees and now I'm getting married. Getting married to my prince. My happiness knows no bounds. But at the same time I'm a little sad because I'm gonna get married in three days and leave my home. It was a bittersweet feeling. Some part of my heart wanted to go away with Ansh and some part wanted to stay here, with my family forever. A few tears escaped my eyes and I was quick enough to wipe it off.

Today was my mehendi ceremony , today my hands will be coloured with the colours of the henna, which will symbolize the love between us. As for now, I'm getting ready for my mehendi ceremony. I told maa and chachi that I wanna get ready by myself for all my pre-wedding rituals and I'm thankful they agreed. I did very minimal makeup and put on some minimal jewellery as I have to sit for hours to get my henna done. I went to my closet and put on a green lehenga with pink floral patterns on it. I was in love with the lehenga and the way it hugged my body.

I was doing the final touches when maa entered my room. Unable to control my emotions, I ran to her and hugged her and she hugged me back. And then I felt something wet on my shoulders. I broke the hug only to see maa crying. I made her sit on my bed and made her drink some water. Sitting beside her I asked
"Kya hua maa? Is everything fine? Aap theek hain na?"
Instead of replying to my question, she just smiled and took out some kohl from her eyes and applied it behind my ear.
"Bahut pyari lag rahi hai humari gudiya rani. Kisiki nazar na lage apko beta." She said as she kissed my forehead.
I took her hands in mine and kissed her knuckles.
"Thank you so much maa. Aur apke hote hue koi humein buri nazar thodi hi laga sakta hai" I said putting my head on her lap.
She gently stroked my hair and said
"Dekhte hi dekhte humari beti kitni badi ho gayi. Ab toh shadi hone wali hai humare rajkumari ki."
At this point I was getting way too emotional, but I decided not to cry infront of maa or else she'll be worried and will cry more for sure. I wiped her tears and said
"Offo maa, kisne kaha main badi ho gayi? Main toh abhi bhi choti si hi hoon."
I joked and gladly she laughed.
"Ab chalein apki Dadi puja ke liye bula rahi hain apko." Maa said getting up from the bed.

We made our way downstairs. The hall was beautifully decorated with flowers, just as I wanted. Being an anthophile I love flowers more than anything. I went towards my papa and hugged him. He kissed my forehead and patted my head. Then I went towards my chachi and chachu. My chachu hugged me and kissed the crown of my head and my chachi did the same alongwith putting some kohl from her eyes behind my ear.
Then I went to dadu and dadi, and they both hugged me. Dadu took out some currency notes and rotated it around me to take the evil eyes off me and gave it to the house helpers.

Then me and my parents sat down for the puja of Ganpati ji. Halfway between the puja the Maheswaris arrived and Dada Dadi went to greet them.
