Life for the next few days was really busy for both the families as deadlines had to be met and all pending work also needed to be completed before the wedding functions could start. Aahana and Dev now only spoke to each other at night for the days demanded that they devote their whole and soul to their work. Time right now was their biggest enemy for neither realized how much pending work had to be completed thus they could only talk at night no matter how tired they were.
Life went on this way for them when one Sunday morning Aahana got up from her deep slumber by a jolt and her face was covered with sweat beads and since the air conditioner was on it definitely wasn't because of the hot weather but, this feeling definitely was alien to her. She was scared,anxious, happy and sad all at the same time. She didn't know what to do and was just sitting in her bed when her mother called her down. She jumped out of bed,ran towards her mother and hugged her crying.
Aahana then told her mother the emotional turmoil she was going through when Snigdha told her that right before marriage all girls go through this feeling and hugging Aahana started crying.
Little did they realize that hidden behind a wall Sanjeev had witnessed everything and he too was shedding silent tears as his darling daughter would be leaving them to start her new life. Somehow, getting a grip on his emotions he called out to his wife and daughter trying to sound calm. However, the wall of control he had managed to build was broken when Aahana crying hugged him and told them that she will not be able to live without them both. Snighda managed to calm herself and told her daughter that all girls have to leave their parents to start their own family. She also explained Aahana that the family she is getting married to will treat her like their daughter and that she is lucky to get such a family specially Dev;and just the mention of his name bought a smile on Aahana's face.
The rest of the day was spent talking to each other reminiscing memories.

When a girl is getting married we always think about the bond between a mother and daughter and how will they feel. Rarely does anyone talk about how a father feels.
A father is a daughter's first hero and for a father his daughter is the most precious gift he can be bestowed with.
Someone has rightly said that " A daughter's first love is her father for she knows that no matter what there is one person who will never hurt her in this entire world and she will always be his little princess".

Love you Papa and miss you loads.
