Taehyung's POV


After a long drive from Chennai, me and my family members have reached my wifey's native place. Just now, we stepped into the temple of Lord Shiva. Wow! Feels so serene as soon as I stepped inside.

I look around the temple, admiring the artworks on the pillars, also trying to find my wifey🤭

Once we stepped further into the temple, my eyes met with the most beautiful person in the planet, no the whole universe. WAAH! What a beauty!!

 WAAH! What a beauty!!

Did I ever tell you that I was someone who never believed in love at first sight? I thought it was cringe, but that was only until I saw this angel.

I gaped at the angel without blinking my eyes, until my eomma ( mom in Korean ) nudged me. She whispered that the angel was my wifey, to which my face lit up like a 1000 watts bulb. I gave my world famous boxy smile to my mom, who pecked my forehead in love.

As we went near to my wifey's family, everything felt like it was happening in slow motion. My wifey looked straight into my eyes shyly. I could feel a zoo running inside my stomach with just his eyes. He then gave a cute smile and turned his head to the other side due to shyness, to my disappointment, which made me unconsciously pout.

Me and my wifey were made to sit in front of a firepit? which looks like this

In their tradition, it is said that fire is regarded as a purifier that sustains life. The pandit ( the one who says mantras during marriage in Hinduism ) then chanted some mantras, which he told us to repeat after him.

He then gave me the sign of marriage Mangalyam to me after getting blessings from the elders.

I then tied the sacred yellow thread onto my wifey's neck, giving it three knots. While doing so, my wifey looked at me with slight teary eyes, indicating his happiness was at his peak. I slowly pecked his forehead, which he reciprocated with his famous bunny smile with a scrunched nose.

I then placed kungumam ( also known as sindoor/kumkum ) on his hair partition, on the knots that I tied and on the Mangalyam. Then my dupatta ( cloth on Tae's shoulder ) and his pallu ( end of Jungkook's saree ) were tied together. We then interlocked our pinkies and went around the holy fire 7 times, where each revolution meant a vow that me and my wifey were to commit to the God and ourselves.

I then placed his toe rings once he stepped on ammi ( ancient mixie ), thus completing our marriage.
