Krithika rushed to the washroom to get ready, she knows it is going to be a long day, finally she will become Mrs. Rishi today, she blushed at that thought. Wearing a pale yellow dress after taking her shower as her haldi was in the morning followed by her wedding at night. She cursed that over smart pandit who decided that both the ceremonies should be on the same date. She tried telling her parents it would be hectic but all her pleads fell on deaf ears, after all her mom loves her stars, zodiac signs more that her, she thought grudgingly.
She just hoped Rishi and she wouldn't look weary and tired in their wedding pictures, but then she chided herself thinking that her husband sorry her to be husband, would look immaculate at any time of the day. Smiling to herself she sat in the haldi ceremony.
She sat down in a small mandap arranged in her portico as her loquacious aunts and over enthusiastic cousins smeared her with haldi (Turmeric), finally after good 3 hours of playing Holi with haldi and bearing with over dramatic aunts who decided to cry happy tears seeing her getting married as if she would have died if she got married a day later.
Rolling her eyes on her relatives, Krithika went back to her room to take a bath and clean herself. Wearing a heavy saree again even after bath, Damn she thought, completely hating this aspect of wedding celebrations, she felt like the heroine of a Hindi daily serial, every strand in place and every nail painted. How she wish she could skip all these rituals and be in her Prince charming's arms directly.The only thing that is keeping her sane in all this havoc is Rishi.
She sat down on her bed and took out her mobile to open her gallery and take a look at the pictures she saved from Rishi's Facebook and Whats app a blush crept on her face, she could live a life time by just looking at his face.
Krithika didn't know whether it was infuation , attraction or love but she just couldn't get over him in this 10 Years. Sure she had many crushes in all these years but Rishi had a special place in her heart, she never was friends with him but kept tab on all his activities by stalking him on social networking sites.
When her parents got this marriage proposal her happiness knew no bounds, she jumped with joy and instantly agreed.She and Rishi spoke few times over the telephone but not much as she was jittery and he was busy.
The only thought that is making her sad is she has to move to the U.S with her husband. Krishna uncle's family moved to the U.S, 8 years ago and Rishi completed graduation and post graduation there.
She was extremely close to her parents and never wanted to leave them and settle in a faraway land but she couldn't say no to Rishis alliance.
After completing her ogling session she decided to call him just to hear his voice." Hello..." Said he in his deep voice with sent a wave down her spine.
"Hello Rishi.." She replied
"Hi Krithika, What's up.." Rishi said
"Nothing much Rishi just finished Haldi,What's up with you.." She asked
"Oh fish!! Iam still on my bed, last night hangover, you know.." He sighed
Krithika just smiled and said "take care Rishi.." with concern laced voice.
"Come on Krithika Iam not dying just a hangover.." He replied irritated by her unwanted concern.
Little taken aback she just changed the topic.
After speaking for few minutes she hung up the call as his friends were calling him.
He was rude at times, Kruthika thought to herself but secretly she found it sexy, blushing, she went to get her beauty sleep, it would help her look fresh and beautiful at her wedding.
