Today, everyone at home is busy because it's my engagement day.

But for the past week, I've been pondering whether I really want to marry or not.

Since I couldn't find an answer, I've left everything to my Kanha Ji .

I'm sitting in my room, preparing for today's party.

But I don't feel like it at all.

I don't know why I feel so strange today, like everything in my life is about to change.

I was taking out my diary from the wardrobe, which I had hidden away, but when I took the diary out, my eyes fell on my yellow anarkali suit.

Seeing it reminded me of Ekansh. I had seen him at the temple that day, but I haven't seen him since then.

And I don't know why, but for so many days, my eyes have been yearning to see him.

I don't know why whenever I think of him, I feel a different kind of emotion in my heart.

Why is this happening after all?

"Are gone mad, Ruhanika?"

"What is even you thinking?" my inner voice questioned me.

"Don't forget, today is your engagement with Siddhant, how can you think about someone else?" my soul tried to reason with me.

I was standing near the window of my room, lost in these thoughts.

"Hey, where are you lost, Madam?"

I turned around and saw Kavya holding the engagement dress in her hand.

"Here, since you're engaged, take care of this," Kavya said, laughing, as she sat down on the bed.

"Uff, I'm exhausted," she sighed.

Kavya, my soulmate, comes from one of the richest families in Rajasthan. We met in school. When I first saw her, I thought she would be as arrogant as others, but she wasn't at all. She is very sweet, very kind; she is just like a coconut - tough on the outside but soft inside. For others, she's the shell of the coconut, but for me, she's the core.

Because of our friendship, our families also share a good relationship. Kavya is my life, and I can't understand how I'll live without her. As I think about this, tears start rolling down my cheeks.

"Hey Ruhi, what happened, why are you crying?" Kavya asked, showing concern.

"Nothing," I said and hugged her.

We understand each other's feelings without saying a word. We don't need words.

"Jhalli kahi ki ," Kavya said emotionally and hugged me tightly.
