Pooja started, manvik and kavya were sitting beside eachother.
Manvik kept peaking at her face which was hidden by the semi- transparent veil.
He just wanted to look at her face without any barrier but it is quite difficult to do so ,till late night.
While kavya was blushing because her husband was looking so handsome. But he was always handsome
She thought , chuckling to herself.
Manvik poured ghee in kund when panditji kept chanting mantras while kavya has her hand on his elbow which signifies that they both are doing ritual together.
Soon the Pooja came to end and manvik and kavya had to part ways as it was time for jamanvaar ( time when all the guests have their meal in special occasions)
Manvik went to take care of everyone was comfortable and all. While kavya was with her mother-in-law.
After males are , all the females ate.
Then kavya got busy arranging snacks and tea for guests.
Few of the guest left at the evening while others decided to go next day. Today too , kavya and manvik didn't got time to admire eachother.
It was past 12 when all the relatives were still chatting.
Kavya was tired but couldn't go to her room as it would be disrespectful.
She sat their with them and was dozing off inside her veil, and thankfully no one noticing her as she couldn't make out if her eyes were closed or not.
Fortunately, soon they started getting up and going to their respective room and kavya made her way to her room.
She didn't even got time change her heavy clothes and jewelry.
She entered her room and sat on the bed , manvik has not come to room yet , she rested her head on the headrest and closed her eyes , feeling relaxed
She felt the door opening and looked at the door.
Manvik entered and closed the room. He smiled at her gently which she reciprocated.
He sat beside her while she sat straight.
His hands going towards her face and caresses her cheek.
"Bohot Sundar dikh Rahi hai......jese ki koi pari mere saamne aake bethi ho" manvik said while still smiling at her.
She looked down as she felt her face turning red.
Manvik held her hand and pulled her towards him , her back resting on his chest while his chin rested on her shoulder. He kissed her cheek.
"Aap bhi aaj bohot ache lag rahe thhe..."
She said while smiling shyly.
"Kyu haroz nahi lagta kya?"
He asked frowning , kavya looked at him.
"N-nahi mere matlab woh nahi thh-"
She was cut by manvik.
"Toh kya thha ha?"
Frown still on his face making kavya nervous.
"Aap haroz ache lagte ho , par aaj a-aur zyada lag rahe thhe"
She saided looking him with her innocent doughy eyes.
Manvik chuckled and hugged her tighter.
He pinched her cheek.
"Me mazaak kar Raha thha"
Kavya smiled in relief.
While they were still sticked to eachother, manvik started removing her jewellery.
He started with her heavy bangles, but it was not awkward instead it was very calm. Kavya was feeling comfortable resting on his chest.
Only sound that was heard was jingling of her jewellery.
After bangles, manvik took her neckpiece off and then her earrings.
"Jaa jaake kapde badal le, thak gai hogi Aaj. Tuje aaram karte hue dekha hi nahi."
Kavya nodded.
She collected her jewellery from bed , and removed the rest , such as mangtika, anklets, etc.
Taking simple choli , she went inside a bathroom and got refreshing bath.
After she came , manvik went to take bath.
When manvik came back , he saw her still sitting on the bed.
"Are tu soi kyu nahi?"
He said coming forward and sitting on his side of bed.
Kavya offed the lamps and sat beside him.
"Woh aap nahi aaye thhe isliye"
Kavya said.
Manvik shook his head.
He held her wrist when he layed down and pulled her towards his chest.
Kavya felt relaxed. Both slept while snuggling into eachother.

Next day mostly everyone has left just few were their.
Just some cousins of lataa were there and shikha(lataa's sister) and saarika.
They all were talking while kavya was making tea for them. It was already evening.
"Lataa , bahu to tu bohot hi sanskaari laai hai , kal dekha mene kese sab kaam kar rahi thhi"
First cousin of lataa said.
"Haa wohi , me to dekhti hu reh gai ki chhoti hai par kaam kya acha karti hai"
Secondary cousin said.
"Haa, dekha nahi kese lataa ke bina hi saara kaam Pooja ka akeli ne sambhala thha."
"Lataa , maan na padega , teri pasand to bohot achi nikli. Tuje to koi kaam ki ya Ghar ki chinta hi nahi hoti hogi , esi bahi jo laai hai..."
Fourth cousin said.
Lataa smiled proudly , as everyone was yet again talking about her daughter in law's manners.
But in all this conversation, two people didn't spoke much.
Shikha and saarika
Saarika liked manvik but it was not that much deep so she moved on when his marriage was fixed.
She rolled her eyes while all of them were praising kavya.
While shikha too wanted her daughter to become mukhiyain. But lataa never listen to her carefully. Always took it as a joke when shikha would talk about this matter.
She too just sat their making faces.
Soon kavya brought tea and served it everyone.
"Are bahu , iss ghar ko varis kab de Rahi ho?"
First cousin said with teasing smile, while kavya blushed.
"Haa bhai , hame to bohot intezaar hai manvik ke bachche ke saath khelne ka. Bhagwan ne ye ashirwad hamare Ghar to nahi diya..par bacha to bacha hota hai , manvik bhi mere bete jesa hi to hai"
Fourth cousin said.
"Are aa jayega bachha , muje bhi ussi ka intezar hai. Kitne saal ho gaye , is haveli me bachho ki kilkaariyo ko sunne hue"
Lataa said with her eyes sparkling thinking about manvik and shiv's childhood.
They praised kavya about her cooking skills making her happy.
She was beyond happy actually and shy too.

At night
After completing work , kavya made her way to upstairs.
Manvik hasn't returned, so she went to bathroom to bath.
When she came , she saw manvik already their. He was changing his kurta when kavya came and he was topples.
It has been awhile , kavya has seen him like that as they didn't got intimate these days.
She started feeling hot but chose to ignore it and sleep. She turned off the lamps as manvik completed changing.
They both layed down but today there was tension in the air.
Manvik pulled her close and......
