Chapter 13 - Crisis

#Next Morning#

There was a lot of hussle and bustle as everyone was busy making the last check of everything, making sure that everything was perfect for the marriage.

Swara was looking intently towards the garlands, making sure they won't fall off. She wasn't watching where she was going and collided into someone. She looked up to see that it was Mani.

Looking at Mani, she felt a pang in her heart. She was reminded of the previous night, when she heard him confess his love for Ria. However, she tried to put on a fake smile "Hey Mani. Sorry, I wasnt looking where I was going."

Mani smiled at her brightly. "Good morning Swara. You're looking really beautiful!" and indeed she was looking mesmerizing in her dress. Mani could barely take his eyes off of her. That's the main reason he was standing in the middle of the corridor,  staring at her. It was actually his fault why she collided with him.

Swara blushed. However, his praise only increased the pain in her heart because she believed that Mani was complimenting her just as a friend would do. 'I wish it was me you loved Mani, and not Ria. But I won't try to come between you two. I want your happiness Mani, and if you find it with Ria, then I will let you go. I won't hold you back. But I will always love you Mani and be there as your best friend.'

Mani noticed the sad look in Swara's eyes

Mani noticed the sad look in Swara's eyes. "Swara, is something wrong? Tell me please."

"It's nothing Mani. You're overthinking again."

"Swara....will you tell me or shall I blackmail you into telling me?" Mani asked teasingly.

Swara tried to think of an excuse "It's..... It's because of Tanuja di's wedding. Today Di will forever leave our family and become a part of yours. I will miss her dearly."

"Awww....Swara you're an idiot."

Swara glared at him "I just told you how I'm sad about my Di, and you say that I'm an idiot!"

"No no no! It's not.. That's not what I meant!" he stuttered out.

"Choose your next words wisely Mani. Because otherwise..." Swara cracked her knuckles. 😡
