Hello all!!!

I am posting this week's update early...
I will not be posting Sunday!!!

Happy reading 😁!!

I heard chaos every where, every one was shouting and showering flowers over me and I saw the devil who was tieing nuptial chain over my neck. I opened my eyes and saw the nuptial chain which reminded me that I am stuck in this so called relationship of marriage.

He leaned towards me and and I could feel his hot breath, he whispered "You have agreed to this marriage and there is no turning back, you are now Mrs. Advaith Nirmala Singh".

I was shocked by this revelation because I didn't agree to stay with him. When the time comes I will leave him but I didn't care about what he told because most of the times he will just tell things to frustrate me.

I faced my head straight but then my father asked me to put garland over his neck. I took garland in my hand and sighed, for the name sake of marriage how many things I have to do.

I then placed garland around his neck, he just smiled, I could sense the emotion through his eyes that he has won a war of something but I was just neutral showing him no reaction.

While placing garland around my neck, he smirked and said "for the rest of seven lives you are tied with me forever and I will not allow you to leave".

Again the lines shocked me but controlled my amused emotion and that he is trying to frustrate me even more but I pretended my emotions to not care about his words and I smirked and said " I can't tolerate you for even five minutes, how will I live with you Mr Advaith?? , but don't worry Mr Advaith Nirmala Singh, this will not last long ".

He just smiled at my words, I just told that words for frustrating him but he just smiled at me but actually he mocked me. We both were looking at each other and then my mom said "Enough of this staring competition, you can stare later after your marriage rituals".

I was embarassed by her words, he cleared his throat and looked forward. The priest then instructed Advaith to place red vermilion on my forehead.

He placed vermilion on my forehead near the partition of my hair. Then priest asked me to get up and take the saree from him. (It is a ritual in our side that the groom should give saree for the bride during wedding).

I was really so tired of this stuffs but have to do it for the sake of name. I got up and I leaned to take the saree. Advaith placed the plate with saree in my hand but while placing his rough fingers touched my finger tips. I don't know why because of his touch, a sensation ran through my spine. I never felt this type of sensation of touch ever.

I think I was overreacting for his touch. I sat down and faced the guest. Then the priest chanted some mantras and told us both to get up and stand for the next ritual, I was being more annoyed by that priest. He can't say all this rituals at once. He just asked me to get up few minutes ago and now.

I tried getting up but my feet wasn't supporting, and my hand had a grip over the plate which had the saree. I was about to fall down but then two arms holded me with tight grip. I opened my eyes to meet the hazel eyes which had concern for me.

But it was the hand of that devil whom I hated the most, I just pushed his hands away and stood properly. I adjusted my saree and had a grip on the folds of my saree to support me while walking.

My father came forward with betel leaf and placed it on Advaith's right hand then he took my left hand and placed it in his hand.

He holded our both hands with a grip, I observed there was tears formed in his eyes. But I avoided his contact because I don't want to cry in front of this devil.
