Hiraeth: It is a Welsh concept of longing for home. Many Welsh people claim 'Hiraeth' is a word which cannot be translated, meaning more than solely "missing something" or "missing home.

*****Jin's POV*****

Since the time that I have learnt about the gravity of Earth and the word 'love' I have always been a little hesitant towards accepting it with open arms. Someone said "You don't fall in love. Love falls in you. Let love consume you. Only then you will realize what is it like to fall in love with someone." I didn't know the meaning back then. Looking back at the time when I first met her through that dating app, I understand that she was always the one for me. I have always been waiting for her. She has been to me the light that a star needs to shine. Without her I would have remained a dead star that falls on earth without it's light, a dark entity without a life.

"Hyung! You are not ready yet! What the hell are you doing?", I wake up from the depth of my thoughts while Jungkook and Hoseok barge into my room. Jungkook is carrying a bouquet of white, red and pink carnations and roses.

"Uhhhh.. yeah!! Sorry! I was just a little tired. I dozed off. I couldn't sleep yesterday.", I grin at him. Marriage jitters can happen to men and women both, right?

"Seriously? All the guests are here. Even the bride's. And you are still in your hoodie. Hyung! It's your wedding today. You can't be like every other day and get ready within 5 minutes and reach office with wet hair. Get up! Right now!", Hoseok is determined to serve his revenge of my daily nagging in a sweet dish today. I wanted to send him to North Korea instead of North America a while ago. Though absentmindedly, but I guess he hasn't forgotten that.

"Okay! Okay! I'm going!", I get up from my bed finally.

"Finish whatever you have to do within 10 minutes. We have already got your suit. You have one hour. Your time starts now!", Jungkook joins Hoseok in whatever revenge he has planned to take on me.

I glare at them for a bit and make an angry face. They both glare back at me with their arms closed near chest. I sigh. Okay! Have it in your own way. I won't fight today. I'm not in the mood. Since last 2 weeks that the wedding has been planned, half of the time I'm excited that I'm going to get married and the rest of the time I want to sit back on my bed and collect memes to feed my congested brain and give it a rest. My brain is working in the same way that of a whinny kid's. So, yeahh! It is a surprise to me even that I'm going to get married today.

The situation improved gradually since I proposed Ridhi for marriage. Surprisingly Ridhi's family didn't reject the proposal. They accepted their daughter's decision in quite a level-headed manner. My family have not been in any conflict with my decisions up to this point and they didn't make any this time either. It is the biggest responsibility that I have taken in my whole life. The same guy who didn't even think about dating in his whole life is going to take responsibility of the love of his life makes me think that I have really come a long way. I still have a long way to go. And I want to walk that path with Ridhi. I am going to take the vow today. To make her happy, to stick to her through thick and thin. To embrace every bit of her flaw and her perfection and to love her even in her most vulnerable time.

Yeah! Finally. She is going to be mine.
