I entered the mandap feeling lifeless. But then, I heard his voice, and it felt like a spark of life returned. I lifted my gaze, and there he was, dressed as my groom, waiting for me. I had no idea how he he got here,but I didn't care. I hugged him tightly, and to my surprise, everyone chuckled instead of reacting with shock. My father smiled, which melted all my worries.

I looked at him with so many questions in my eyes, but he said nothing. As he took the mangalsutra, my mind filled with a flood of thoughts.

*Does he truly love me?
Are we rushing into this?
Do I even know what I feel?
Is he really the one for me?
Maybe I should’ve waited?*

He looked at me, silently asking for permission. I managed a small smile and assured him with a gentle nod. I closed my eyes as he applied the vermillion and tied the mangalsutra. A sense of warmth filled me, and a tear rolled down my cheek.

When the wedding ritual was over, we all stood up. Suddenly, I felt a hand on my feet. It was Vihaan, kneeled down in front of me.

"Vihaan, what are you doing?" I whispered, trying to pull my foot back. But he didn't let go, pulling out a small box and a pouch from his pocket. Inside the box were two toe rings.

Someone nearby said he shouldn’t touch my feet. Vihaan just smiled and replied, "This is my wife’s family tradition" and gently slipped the rings onto my toes. "She respected and embraced my traditions; and it is also my responsibility that I do the same for hers"

His words touched me deeply, filling my heart with warmth. I tried to pull my feet back, but he held them again, saying "I’m not done yet, biwi" Then he took out a pair of anklets, which surprised me "this is..." I pointed at them "yes biwi yours  anklets only, and how can I leave them" he said placing them around my ankles, and kissed my feet."They will not fall again , I fixed it" he said.

I couldn’t stop the tears. Why he is loving, caring and thoughtful, I kept admiring him with a smile and he looked at me with softened expression but all of the sudden his expression changed, full of anger. He stood up dragged me behind him and moved forward, grabbing a man who was holding a knife. Karan shouted, "deva!" as he rushed. I was dropped down because of the force he applied.

The anger look in Vihaan's eyes scared me. I tried to get up, before I could say anything, he Said "How dare you...She is my wife VIHAAN RANAVEER RAWAL’S life!" his words made everything blank,  the truth hit me like a shock. *He is Ranaveer*

Someone lifted me up and I sank into a  chair as memories flooded back moments with Vihaan, thoughts of Ranaveer. My heart kept saying it couldn’t be true. How could he be both, the man I loved deeply and the one I had hated the most.

"Ranaveer let go" shivaay bhai said but he is not anywhere ready to leave that man. Shivaay Bhai dragged that man away, and Vihaan returned to me, trying to calm down. He looked at me, as if his confession had changed nothing , just now He did something  that I never expected and he didn't even give me a explanation.

I looked at Karan for answers, but he turned away. My heart felt unbearably heavy. One moment, I felt joy because of him, the next, sorrow because of him.
