DESSERT BLOSSOM

MEHENDI

ISHITA

His lips lingered on mine since last night. 

His confession hit me like a truck. 

It was beautiful to see him confessing but I couldn't get myself to say that back to him maybe because I don't feel like that yet. 

I like his company. 

I like his presence around me but I never knew i could mean so much more than that to him. 

It's mehendi today. I am currently getting ready.

Risha had suggested me to go with green for mehendi. 

And I did. 

I hope he finds it beautiful. 

"Maharaj will go nuts when he sees you like this." Risha spoke. 

I blush. 

"Oho I see someone's blushing" Aru coos. 

"Shut up you people. She is already so red that she doesn't need blush anymore" Riya tells.

 All these people are teasing me.

I get a message and I open it since it's from my Rana Sa.

Ranveer: Are you ready my love?

Ishita: Yes. I am

Ranveer: Why aren't you out yet?

Ishita: I haven't been call yet Rana Sa. I can't walk out without permission orders from my mother-in-law

Ranveer: I can't wait to see you love.

Ishita: you will be there too? It's an event just for ladiesss

Ranveer: I don't mind. I just want to sit beside you when they draw on your hand.

The door opens and my mother-in-law enters with my step mom. 

"Ishu baccha let's go. It's time now." My mother-in-law tells me. 

I nod and get up and start walking outside with my mothers on my side and my friends behind me.

 I look around to see my Rana sa. 

He said he'll be out but he's not here.

 Did he lie?

 Was he not allowed?

 I internally laughed at the thought of him not being allowed to a function in his own wedding.

 Dadi guides me to my seat and they do a small pooja and then start with the ritual. 

"What name should I write on your hand ma'am?" the artist asked.
