𝑨𝑹𝒀𝑨'𝑺 𝑷𝑶𝑽:
I opened my eyes with the continuous blaring of alarm with so much effort. I was very tired and only wanted to rest and do nothing. I looked up at the ceiling only to find it different from the one in my house and suddenly the reality dawned upon me. I stood up in an instant and looked at the time. I relieved a sigh of breath realizing I wasn't late on the first day.

I looked at the sofa only to find it empty. "Where he could have gone so early in the morning?" I thought. I got up from the bed took my clothes and went to freshen up.

I was combing my hair when Reyansh entered the room in his gym clothes and went directly to the washroom without even looking around.

I got ready in a Red Anarkali suit and looked at myself in the mirror. I hadn't applied vermillion yet so I picked the vermillion and applied it on my forehead. Even though this marriage is just a agreement but I respect the culture.

I went downstairs after getting ready only to find Aunty already in the kitchen. I covered my head and went on to touch her feet. She blessed me and made me stand up.

She took off the veil from my head and said "You are our daughter now. You don't need to put on any veil from anyone. You have to live here like a family member" She said and hugged me. I was shocked by her behavior and my hands went around her unknowingly.

"Okay Aunty" I said and her expression went from excited to sad and I couldn't understand the change in her expression.

"It's okay beta, if you couldn't accept me just now but I would love if you called me Maa instead of Aunty. I would love if you treat me like your mother" She said with a small smile.

My eyes glistened with tears after listening to her and I smiled feeling proud for not rejecting the proposal. "I will call you Maa" I said with tears in my eyes and a smile on my face.

Au...sorry Maa also got emotional and hugged me with so much love and soon we both were joined by another person and she was Reva. Three of us broke the hug.

"Ok ok it's not time to be emotional or else we will be late for breakfast" Maa said wiping my tears. "And don't worry just prepare something sweet. For rest of the breakfast we have a chef he will prepare it" I nodded.

"I will do my best" Maa smiled. "I am leaving now if you need any help he will help you" She points towards the chef who was nearly in his late 40s passing us a beautiful smile.

"Okay Maa" She left me and I started making kheer by boiling the milk and chef uncle helped me to find things like sugar etc.

Suddenly a message popped up on my phone's screen. It was Arav.

𝐀𝐑𝐀𝐕: Dii, are you okay? they are not bothering you, right?

𝐀𝐑𝐘𝐀: No, they all are very good.

𝐀𝐑𝐘𝐀𝐍: If I would have known Papa is forcing you. I swear I wouldn't let you marry that human.

𝐀𝐑𝐀𝐕: Agreed *thumbs up*
