Today's the big day for all of us. Di's wedding. My God! Sanya di is gonna leave us and go to her Husband's house. It's not like rakhi Aunty and Mahesh uncle are bad. They're just like our parents. From childhood to till now, she's the only Didi I've and She's gonna leave me. Thinking about this, My tears are bursting out.
Presently, sitting in my room and looking at the old, preachy photo album from my childhood is making things worse. Everyone know, how much I love my didi [sister]. She was my support, Encouragement and everything I could ever imagine. She was the senior in the school and college, ofcourse and that was a advantage of me.
If anyone use to tease me or bully me, she would come to my school/college and gave those people a lesson. And now, tomorrow she's gonna leave us and go. I don't know how we're going to manage this everything. There will be no sannata [Noise] in the whole house.
I wiped my tears, with my mehendi hands and closed the album. The time is 2:45 am and I couldn't sleep. The wedding is at 11:00 AM and I couldn't be more excited or at least, happy about it.
Putting the album aside, I drank water and switch off the lamp. Pulling the duvet up to my chin, I slept with a smile on my face.

The morning came by very soon.
The whole mansion is full on swing with the shoutings, yelling and tension.
Tying my hair into a bun, I wore my slippers and rushed down and saw my mom yelling at the decorator. I rolled my eyes.
"Bhayya, Jaldi Kariye. Late horahein. Mandap ke paas bhi jaana hein [Brother, Do it fast. We're getting late. We need to go to Avenue also]." Mom said and he nodded.
"Mumma, Chill. Where's dad?" I said and she looked at me and tensed more. Ab kya hogaya [now what happened]?
"He's in the avenue. He already got ready and left with Abhi. Preeta, go to Sanya's room and ask her to shower. The beauticians will be here in 10 minutes. And ask Nirvana too. And you and get ready. I don't know why you still didn't get ready and I've lots of things to do. Oh, God and ─ "
