After navigating through the challenges and uncertainties surrounding our relationship, Saakshi and I decided to move forward with our commitment to each other. Despite our families' reservations, we held our engagement ceremony with a select few members from both sides present.

We chose a banquet hall with an elegant, opulent design. The room is spacious, featuring round tables covered with white tablecloths and surrounded by black chairs; the ceiling is high, adorned with intricate patterns, and several large, sparkling crystal chandeliers hanging evenly across the room. The walls are decorated with elegant paneling, large windows draped with heavy curtains, and soft lighting from ornate sconces.

Saakshi looked radiant in her traditional attire, her eyes reflecting a mixture of happiness and apprehension. I stood beside her, feeling a surge of pride and gratitude for the woman I was about to officially commit my life to the person I love

The presence of a few family members who chose to support us despite the circumstances meant the world to us.

As we exchanged rings and made promises to each other, the room was filled with a sense of hope and resilience. It was a small gathering, but it carried profound significance for us. We were declaring our love and commitment openly, despite the challenges we had faced and the uncertainties that still lingered.

Our engagement was a testament to our love, our perseverance, and our belief in a future where love would ultimately triumph over all obstacles.
