Morning Light

The first rays of sunlight peeked through the curtains, casting a warm glow over the room. Reyansh and Aarohi lay entwined, their bodies still wrapped in each other's arms.

Aarohi stirred, her eyes fluttering open. Reyansh's face was inches from hers, his features relaxed in sleep.

She smiled, tracing his jawline with her finger. Reyansh's eyes opened, locking onto hers.

"Good morning, my love," he whispered, his voice husky.

Aarohi's cheeks flushed. "Good morning."

Reyansh pulled her closer, his lips brushing against hers.

Their morning kiss was gentle, a soft rekindling of the flames that had burned bright the night before.

As they broke apart, Aarohi snuggled deeper into Reyansh's arms.

"I never want to leave this bed," she whispered.

Reyansh chuckled. "We can stay here forever."

But the world outside beckoned. The sound of birds chirping and the aroma of freshly brewed coffee wafted through the air.

Aarohi sat up, her hair tumbling down her back. Reyansh's eyes roamed over her, filled with adoration.

"You're beautiful," he said.

Aarohi's smile lit up the room. "You make me feel beautiful."

Reyansh swung his legs over the side of the bed. "Let's start the day together."

Hand in hand, they stepped into the morning light.

After freshning up

Pehli Rasoi

Aarohi stood nervously in her new kitchen, surrounded by Reyansh's family and her own. Today was her Pehli Rasoi, a cherished tradition where the bride cooks her first meal for her husband's family.

Reyansh's mother, Raini, guided Aarohi's hands as they prepared the traditional Indian dishes. Aarohi's fingers trembled slightly, but Reyansh's reassuring touch calmed her nerves.

"Remember, beta, the most important ingredient is love," Raini said, smiling.

Aarohi's eyes sparkled. "I'll add extra love, Mummyji."

Just then, the doorbell rang. Aarohi's face lit up. "Papa's here!"

Preet, Aarohi's father, entered the kitchen, a warm smile on his face. "Beta, I wouldn't miss this for the world."

Aarohi rushed into his arms. "Papa, I'm so glad you're here."

Preet blessed Aarohi, his eyes shining with pride. "You're a part of this wonderful family now, but you'll always be my little girl."

Reyansh's father, Aman, welcomed Preet with a warm hug. "Preet, you're part of our family . We're honored to have you."

As they cooked, Vikram and Meesha teased Aarohi good-naturedly, making her laugh. Preet and Aman shared stories, forging a bond between the two families.

Reyansh entered the kitchen, his eyes scanning the spread. "Wow, looks amazing!"

Aarohi's cheeks flushed. "Thanks, Reyansh."

The family gathered around the dining table, eager to taste Aarohi's creations.

The first bite was met with a collective "mmm." Aarohi beamed.

Raini hugged Aarohi. "You've won our hearts, beta. And our stomachs!"

Preet smiled, his eyes shining. "My daughter's always been an amazing cook. Now she's an amazing wife too."

Reyansh took Aarohi's hand. "You're an amazing cook, and an even more amazing wife."

Aarohi's eyes shone. "I'm so happy to be part of this family."

As they shared the meal together, Aarohi knew she had found her forever home, surrounded by love, laughter, and delicious food.
