Dawn's early light tinged the sky with pink and gold hues., Ram found himself standing before the mirror in his room, a tumult of emotions churning within him. The day he had long awaited, the day of his wedding to Lisa, had finally arrived. Yet, amidst the flurry of preparations and celebrations, a gnawing doubt lingered in the depths of his heart.

As he adjusted his tie and smoothed down his suit, Ram couldn't shake the feeling that he was on the brink of a decision that would shape the course of his life. Despite his outward calm, an undercurrent of turmoil roiled beneath the surface, his mind plagued by doubts and uncertainties.

For all his professed affection for Lisa, there remained a lingering shadow of doubt, a nagging sense that perhaps he had never truly moved on from his first love, Priya. In the quiet solitude of his room, with the soft light of dawn filtering through the curtains, Ram found himself confronting the truth he had long sought to bury beneath layers of denial.

With each passing moment, the weight of his conflicting emotions grew heavier, casting a pall over the joyous occasion that lay ahead. Though he had convinced himself that his feelings for Priya were a thing of the past, he couldn't shake the sense that they still held sway over his heart, refusing to be relegated to mere memories.

As he stood before the mirror, the reflection of a man torn between duty and desire stared back at him, his heart heavy with the burden of his unspoken truths. On this day of new beginnings, Ram found himself grappling with the ghosts of his past, uncertain of the path that lay before him.

In her room priya stood alone on the balcony, her gaze fixed on the horizon as the first light of dawn cast a soft glow over the landscape. The weight of impending separation hung heavy in her heart, each passing moment a reminder of the bittersweet farewell that awaited her.

As she watched the world awaken around her, a sense of resignation settled over Priya, the knowledge that from this day forth, she would have to bid farewell to the memories she had held dear. Though her heart ached at the thought of parting ways with Ram, she knew that her sacrifice was necessary for his happiness.

With a determined resolve, Priya steeled herself for the task that lay ahead, steeling her heart against the tidal wave of emotions threatening to overwhelm her. For the sake of Ram and Lisa, the two souls who had become irreplaceable pillars in her life, she vowed to bury her own feelings and embrace the role of the selfless supporter.

Despite the ache of longing that gnawed at her soul, Priya drew strength from the knowledge that her sacrifice would pave the way for the happiness of those she held dear. With each breath she took, she made a silent promise to herself to remain steadfast in her resolve, to stand by their side and usher in a new chapter of their lives with grace and dignity.

As the sun climbed higher in the sky, casting its warm embrace over the world below, Priya felt a glimmer of hope stir within her heart. Though the road ahead was fraught with uncertainty, she knew that she would face it head-on, guided by the unwavering light of love that burned within her. And as she stood on the threshold of a new beginning, Priya knew that no matter where life's journey took her, she would always carry the memories of her time with Ram close to her heart.

Just then priya heard a bang on the door so she slowly walked towards to open it. Priya stood at the door, her hand trembling slightly as she met Lisa's gaze. The young bride-to-be stood before her, radiant in her wedding attire, her eyes alight with excitement and anticipation. But Priya could see the flicker of concern that clouded Lisa's features as she took in Priya's disheveled appearance.

"Masi, what's wrong? Why aren't you ready?" Lisa's voice was laced with worry as she stepped closer, her eyes searching Priya's face for answers.

Priya took a deep breath, steeling herself for the difficult conversation that lay ahead. "Lisa, there's something I need to tell you," she began, her voice soft yet resolute.
