BROKEN SOUL!

The Marriage

"What , Ruhi is getting married ?'
Mamaji asked ..

Actually Nani informed them about Ruhi's marriage because however cruel they were ,  they were the part of the family.

"Yes , and that too with that rich guy , what's his name .. Vikrant Malhotra.."
Mami replied .

"The same guy whom company she joined few months back .?"

"Yes,look at this girl .. she has no shame . Is that what you do Ruhi ? Trapping rich guys .."? Mama spat at Ruhi . Who was standing there with Nani .

"Shut up! Both of you ..if you can't give her blessings for her marriage . Don't curse her . And I don't think you both are needed on my granddaughter's marriage . We don't need such people who will just cause trouble with their presence ".

" Huh..we know very well ..this girl will only cause omen in their house too . And thank you Maji, but we ourselves are not interested in her wedding " Mami said arrogantly .

Ruhi stood there without saying anything. I don't know whether I'm doing this right or not . What will Vikrant sir think of me. I really hate myself . But I'm helpless . I'm doing this only for my Nani .

ON THE DAY OF MARRIAGE

Finally the wedding day arrived.

Vikrant and Ruhi were getting married in a temple . Their wedding was really a private affair , only the family members were present .

Ruhi was sitting in her room . All dressed up as a new bride . She was nervous , so nervous . She never felt like this in her whole life . It was like the happiest day of her life, yet she was not happy. Feeling like a burden to somebody's shoulder . She never wanted this . Still she was here dressed up as a bride . She will be married to Vikrant in few hours .

Please forgive me Vikrant sir, I am sorry . I had to do this .

Ruhi was dressed in a simple red lehenga which belonged to her mother. With minimal makeup. She looked beautiful and elegant . She wore her mother's jewellery. Which made her look more pretty .

"Ruhi , beta it's time to go" Nani called .

"You are looking so beautiful , my baccha " Nani complimented her .

Ruhi gave her a weak smile.

"I will miss you Nani "

" I will miss you too beta. You are going to be a part of a new family. You are getting married to Vikrant, he will be your husband from today , always respect him . Be a good wife . Be nice to everyone. This is a new start to your life Ruhi .Be strong . There will be many challenges Ruhi . You have to be strong ." Nani told.

Ruhi eyes were full of tears .

"Why are you crying , Ruhi . This is the time to be happy . Smile" Nani said her own eyes pooling with tears .

IN THE TEMPLE

Everybody arrived from Vikrant's family . They all were very happy as their youngest member was getting married.

Vikrant was still in a daze . He was doing this just because of his family .

After some time Ruhi came with her Nani , holding her hands . She graced her lehenga gracefully . Her face shining with a bridal glow. But she was nervous as hell.
Oh God please give me strength. She silently prayed .

"Ruhi, you look so beautiful beta" Dadi looked at her and said .

Ruhi gave her a genuine smile. She joined her hands saying Namastey to  Abhimanyu , Vishal and Aditi who gave her a welcoming nod.
