But understanding the delicacy of the occasion. we just focused on getting ready. I gave him the dark marron kurta and white dhoti. He draped it on his own this time. And matching jewellery with it.

We went to the hall and all the preparations were done till time. This is my right to apply the henna on the hand of Raghav. I took the peacock feather and first offer it to the goddes and then apply on the hand of Raghav and i done the perfect job.

After that all the ladies start to apply henna on others hand. An attendee came and ask me to apply henna i accepted.

She start to apply a nice big dot on my hand and cover the finger tips with it. Back side she also done the same. After that Rana ji ask her to give feather to him. I got confused. He pull my lehnga little up and start applying henna on my feet because both hands are done. His mother give him a death threat side eye.

I got sacred that there wil be a big drama could be created. I gulped and ask Rana ji to stop

"Rana ji, please stop everyone is watching you"

But he refused.

My stomach twist in very bad way. I shut my eyes close when i listen the voice if his mother.

"Stop, Ranvijay"

"But why"

He asked her.

"It is not good here for a husband to touch his wife's feet."

"But why"

He asked her with raised eyebrows.

I start looking at him. I want to stop him but his mother could give this a other meaning. So i decided to stay shut.

"She is my wife, the laxmi of palace (indian godess). I have every right to adorning my wife. And top of that i am never ashamed of touching feet if my wife. She is fully mine, if she can touch my feet then i can also."

He turned into my side and continue applying henna.

"No one could stop me."

He stated in anger.

I gulped again. My fear is getting increased with every second and every word of him.

He done his work. I also decided to stay shut. I don't want more drama in Raghav's marriage. He went from there after giving me a cute smile.

After all the men left we all starting dancing ghoomar. Music and instruments are playing on rhythm. Urvashi pull me by arm and started dancing like crazy we all laugh. His mother also show some steps. And i control my laugh too. Because we can never imagine that she could dance and smile too.

We all spend the midnight in dancing playing and enjoying the night. After that we decide to sleep cause we have to left for the Rohini's kingdom in early morning.

I went to the chamber but Rana sa is not there. I got tensed because he was upset after his mother tries humiliate him. She is always doing something which keeps Ranvijay's old wounds fresh. I know he never expresses it but the pain he has gone through in his childhood is very tough for him to forget.

Whenever I see Rana sa swinging the sword, I feel that...he is fighting with all those thoughts in his mind and burden of pain throughout his life. He is using it very mindfully.

I lay down on the bed after changing into some warm clothes. I took off all my jewelery today. Because I was tired of wearing so much jewelery since morning.i unbraided the hair and let them breath till morning. I lay down on the bed he is still not coming. I think he will sleep in his temporary chamber today...but why...how could he...
