Mom and dad came forward and sit in my side panditji instructed them to sit opposite they change their places .
Panditji Chanting then explains looking at him "her parents will now do Kanyadan in this they are giving their daughter to you in return you are ensuring them her protection, you are going to be responsible for her from now on, in short you are going to raise the bride their daughter, they are giving her to you,so she can bear your child ,help you as your friend and care for you as your mother, always be thankful to them for giving her to you."Panditji said "forward your hands hold each other hands on this plate bride put your hand upon groom hands " this time his hands are under my hands his hands are muscular I can feel their support.
Panditji ask my parents " put these things in her hands like money flowers and milk then repeat it two times"meanwhile I ask in my mom in ear "Abhishek bhaiya is not back yet".."No"mom said..." he is still busy it's already 5 in the morning tell him to return already" I talk in her ear.
Panditji Said"Now elders will bless the couple with flowers in everyone hands ..everyone showers the couple with flowers" and everyone take flowers from plate which a girl from groom family maybe around my age distrubed .And they showers flower on us.
Panditji said" Today onwards you both are husband and wife touch everyone feet and take blessings.."
We touch everyone feet and then take our seats we are tied together with knot .As we seat my brother Abhimanu help me wear my heels.
And he my husband he looks for his shoes "Surbhi where is ny shoes " he shouts on a girl who pout looking under the chair and little kids looking under things.
Priya came saying to him "Give me money if you wants the shoes" she come near me"your mom tell me I can do this ritual as we are like sisters "she speaks in my ears i nodded.. "you might not know jiju I am her bestie I know alot about her ,bribe me now otherwise it will be too late"she said to him.."How much do you want" he asked "21 thousands "she demand" He called his sisters to give her money "they have already prepared some gift for the bride's sister maybe for me originally.his sister giver her a box saying "it's very expensive you won't be disappoint "priya take it happily.
"It's time for bidaai (farewell)" his dad Said" it's 6 in the morning reaching us home will take 1 and half hour too let's do the bidaai now" he added...wait I have to leave now my heart feels so heavy I already start missing my life here my memories of childhood and our festive all the seasons i spend at home ,i once used to say dad i will never leave him i won't marry and go somewhere..my family's love my brothers teasing me I m so overwhelmed "memories keep coming tears keep rolling 2 at a time like my eyes are the window of my heart and emotions are getting their freedom from the lock of my heart they are running outside...

As I walk out of the door my brother abhimanu is holding rice panditji said to me "throw this rice behind you,this means the well wishes you are living behind for your family "i walked out doing this with sharp piercing cry like I m alone in a room nobody is watching..
After decorated car came in front of me and someone open the door ,instead of sitting I turn back.I look through the crowd my eyes search for dad why he is absent at such a crucial time and I asked mom"where is dad?"she replied" he was here,don't know where is he now"i hugged her saying "please take care of you both" Abhimanu came he holds me tightly and also start tearing I said him"why are you crying you didn't like me you teased me everyday" and I hug him and he said pulling back looking at me "you have two brothers never feel uncomfortable you can come home anytime if you want to "he said with his watery eyes.
My husband wait did I said my husband ,he is also stuck with me by knot wherever I m going he tag along he listened our conversation too ohh. Then priya came she is crying "I will miss you so much how will we Bing watch and gossip while on bed,you left me "she hugged me i hug her back"we will talk on phone calls,i will miss you "and turn to my brother "now i m leaving ,take care of priya for me ,escort her back safely "I request him ..then looking back in the crowd for the last time.
