TWISTED LOVE ☑️ Completed ☑️

part 4 marriage

"Payal, are you ready?" Garima asked her daughter for the ninth time and Payal didn't even reply this time while applying her bindi.

"Jiji! Tell me the truth, are you even ready to marry?" Asked Mishty whose eyes are already filled with fresh tears and Payal nodded in agreement.

"Why are you asking this again and again? Now even only half an hour is left for my marriage" Payal spoke in her stern voice making Mishty sadder.

"Jiji! They came here with alliance just two days before. And how can they ask us to arrange for marriage today?" Asked Mishty who is continuously repeating the same dialogue again and again for two days and no one paid attention to her.

Payal looked at her mobile for one last time with the hope to get something on the screen. This weird behaviour is not gone unnoticed by Mishty.

"For whose message you are waiting?" Asked Mishty suddenly grabbing her attention.

"Did mumma inform Kapoor uncles family?" Asked Payal without taking her eyes off from the mobile screen.

"That's what I am also saying. If they knew this, they would surely stop this marriage." Said Mishty and that's when Garima and Sashi joined the room bewildered.

"Why?" Asked Garima in her low voice while Payal is purely paralysed for one whole minute. She didn't expect her parents to know about this for sure.

"Nothing maa. Mishty is just blabbering something else" Payal tried to make her understand. But both stood there as if demanding answers from Mishty.

"Mishty, I am asking you something" Sashi raised his voice little and Mishty lowered her eyelids as if she has done something so forbidden.

"Maa, it's just 30 minutes left. Let's go outside please maa" Payal pleaded while Sashi showed his palm towards her and eyes Mishty to speak.

Anjali adjusted her white dupatta over her chudi and applied dark blue bindi in the centre with a constant smile over her lips.

"You look absolutely stunning" Arjun commented her from behind and they both started welcoming the guests they called for the marriage. As it was very short notice, they have called only about 100 people and all came in such limited time.

Panditji started reciting the mantras and Sid came there at perfect timing which he promised his dhi. His face was so rigid and his heart is full of mess. Arjun could read the tension behind his face. Still, he chose to remain quiet. As Arjun can't support Sid in this matter for sure. Maybe one day, Sid will thank them for this day.

"Please call the bride" the panditji almost came the last round in ritual where he called out for bride.

"dhi! What happened to your so-called girl? where is she?? Panditji is waiting" Sid commented when the no one from the bride room came outside.

"chote! You have given me three days time and it's the last day. I know very well. So for God's sake, close your so-called taunting mouth" anjali chided as she is hell tensed right now seeing the atmosphere.

The door opened shocking everyone the hall except for siddharth who cares least about the happenings.       

“Mishty!" All exclaimed seeing Mishty there. Garima and Sashi in stood there behind Mishty who was biting her nails continuously.
