REGAL DESTINY

16 . Haldi/ Mehendi

AUTHOR'S POV :-

The lush green lawn of the palace, adorned with intricate designs and vibrant flowers, transformed into a majestic venue for the haldi ceremony of our couple. The warm sunlight casting a golden glow on the family & friends gathered there , running here and there for the haldi ceremony of Veer & Meera .

Veer , dashing in his yellow kurta with rolled up sleeves and his Maybach on , standing there with his friends waiting for his tulip to come . The teasing and laughter filled the whole garden .

In the meanwhile Meera emerges from the palace doors , a vision in yellow finery . She looks no less than a goddess in that white lehnga adorned with yellow floral prints and with floral jewellery tangling around her neck and hands .

As she appeared, Veer's eye's widened in awe . He felt the air leave his lungs , his heart skipping a beat as he keep his hand on his heart to calm down his racing heartbeats .

The warm sunlight dancing across Meera's face , illuminating the gentle smile that plays on her lips ,making Veer's heart flutters. Time stood still as their eye's met , the world around them melting away . VEER'S eyes roamed over her , drinking in the sight of her radiant and ethereal Beauty. He felt his chest swell with pride , his love for her overflowing like a river .

" Bas bhi karde ab , ya bache bhi yahin karne ka irada hai ? " , Veer's trance broke as he heard his bestfriend who's grinning now .

( Stop it now , are you planning to make babies here too ? )

" Tu bakwas karna band karega ? " , Veer asked him getting annoyed

( Can you stop blabbering nonsense? )

" Nah ! Wo to nai kar sakta ! " , Reyansh said while moving towards Laksh & Edric

( No ! Can't do that .)

Veer again' looked at Meera , he couldn't help but smile .
That's when Anjali called them to sit on the ornate thrones, awaited the ritual to start .

The air is filled with the sweet fragrance of roses and the soft chirping of the birds as the family and guests gathered around the couple.

The elder's of the family started the ritual by applying the haldi paste to Meera's & Veer's skin. Thier eyes sparkled with adoration.
As the people started applying haldi on Meera's skin , her smile radiated with joy . Veer couldn't help but gaze at his bride to be, his eyes filled with adoration.

In this instant he knew that he is ready to spend his whole life making her happy , to cherish and honour her , through all the trials and trimpuhs lay ahead their path .

Soon when the elder's finished applying haldi , the youngsters gathered around the couple with mischief glistening in their eye's. All the youngsters comes forward towards the couple with their hands filled with haldi .
Veer warned them with his eye's ,but before he could speak further they all jumped on him and whole crowd filled with laughter .
