Not the last part, thanks to me, as Am the laziest one. but Surely the next part will be. I will wait for some feedback meanwhile.

OmRu stealthily clicked few pics of them hugging each other, consoling each other with soothing words and then left happily.
and time flew away.....

After some time
.......

The haldi place was seperated into two portions, One part was for the bride family to perform Haldi with the Bride and other part was decorated for groom's family.
Partition idea was given by Mallika and was executed with a glass wall, which could show one's reflection but the person at any side would not be able to see the happenings going on at the other part.
Mitali and Vikram along with little Sahil accompanied The Bride to be Anika on her way to the place.
With floral maang tika and other floral jewelries, her natural beauty was so evident on her face, and a blushing smile made her look more dreamy. As if the ambience became brighter with her appearance.
"Who will apply it first?" Vikram questioned, to which He got two serious glares from Mitali and Sahil,
"are you dumb? or you pretend to be? Even Sahil knows about it, after getting applied on groom, the same Haldi paste has to be used for the bride. So wait till They bring it here after applying it on Sir." Mitali faked a smile which made Vikram burst in laughter "sir? arey call her Jiju.. he is going to be your friend's husband after all"
He winked at Anika, but She completely ignored it to his surprise.
"Who knows.....What has our Destiny written for us? I don't know if I.....I would be able to become his wife or..." She looked so gloomy all of a sudden, "or not" She added with a sigh. A layer of tension and uncertainty dimmed the brightness of her mood.
She started looking restless and asked one of their relatives, "Aunty can you please go to their side to check whether They have completed their part or it will take more time?" after assuring her, the lady went to that side, while Vikram and Mitali chuckled thinking their friend had become impatient for her Haldi.
.........
Other side,
"Hurrah! Aj mera Bhaiyaan ka shaadi hain Aj Bhagad billu ka shaadi hain....." Rudra and Mallika entered dancing Bhangra to the beats of Punjabi Dholwalas.
Om and Shivaay were sitting on a divan surrounded by all their family members. They started swaying to the peppy rhythm of the clamor, especially Pinky, She had been the most overenthusiastic for this big business wedding from the start. She made everyone dance with the beats of the Dhols, even Shivaay also happily followed his family. But unfortunately He wasn't aware of the raging storm started clouding over his sky.
They were so absorbed in dancing that They could not hear that a mobile had been ringing continuously. And That was Om's phone.

"Have you all done with your haldi? May I take the bowl to our side?" Anika's aunty brought them back to the present.
"No dear, We are just celebrating the ritual with our hearts, My Grandson is going to marry, Its his haldi. Should we make the ambience dull? We will do whatever our heart wishes for, isn't it Shivaay? what say Om?" Dadi smiled radiantly, ShivOmRu hugged her together and nodded to her words in agreement.
"Tells Bride's familys that This is Shivaay Singh Oberoi's Haldi, So no needs to hurrys" Pinky did a gesture with her hands to keep the evil vibes away from her son, Shivaay.
"Its ShivIka marriage after all not just Shivaay's, so its normal for them to check if we have performed it" Mallika corrected her to which Pinky just rolled her eyes.

I know who is getting restless, and Who has sent her aunty for hurrying us.

Shivaay thought in his mind, and his face flushed a little, which got noticed by OmRu.
Dadi Mallika Pinky and Janvi applied haldi on his cheeks and then Everyone in the family started throwing haldi to each other, ended up chasing each other and mistakenly missed the target which made the opposite one rush behind the member and threw haldi on them. It was fun for the family to have such moment and They enjoyed it fully.
But Shivaay took the advantage of his family being busy in playing Haldi and he sneaked out of the place.

After five minutes,

"Shivaay where are taking me with you?" She tried to wriggle out of his grip, but As her eyes were blindfolded by Shivaay, So It was difficult to yank his hand off. For a second opinion, She was loving all the little moments they were having till the marriage.
"please now stop irritating me, Am already tensed thinking......" She was about to spill the bean but stopped in the middle.
After walking ahead a little more, He took his hands off and asked her to open her eyes. She batted her eyelashes and opened her orbs to find that They were on the same beach they had been on the last evening.
"I don't understand" She smiled faintly trying to get his intention.
"You must be waiting for your haldi, So here I am" He shrugged his shoulders while mischievous glints were evident in his eyes.
"so? We have left the haldi place? and It should be applied on you first, then How can I....." She retaliated impatiently.
"Chill Anika" He hushed her placing a finger on her lips, he gulped hard as He just controlled the urge to ravish her lips then and there. When She calmed down a little, He cupped her cheeks and murmured "just hold on Mrs Would be SSO, in case You're having adrenaline rush, just breathe in Breathe out. relax and enjoy the moment"
After getting those soothing words into her mind, She smiled fully.
He leaned towards her, and slowly rubbed his left cheek against her right one, and repeated the same on her left cheek with his right cheek.
"Now the haldi is complete" His husky voice made her feet tremble. She lowered her gaze as her already Haldi painted cheeks became a little pinkish in shy.
"I don't like cheaters but I love your effort" She bit her lip and buried her face in his chest. He wrapped his hands around her waist and held her close to him.
Floating in the sea of emotions made them so zoned out that They could not feel that Shivaay's phone had been buzzing since a while as it was being on vibrate mode.
They cherished the moment being drowned in the feelings and again The time just flew away........
