Abir had slyly bribed kuhu to make the theme for the first function, all blue, because obviously mishti's favourite colour and mishti had requested kuhu to make the theme all pink, for Abir. But kuhu being kuhu, got sick of the argument and ended up making the theme all purple. The twist being, that they were going to go all western with this function. Which meant everyone in tuxedos and gowns.
"Abir bro, yeh lijiye. Aap groom ho isliye aap ka tux full black hai and baki everyone will be in grey and black. Aur aap ki tie bhi lavender hai, matching mishti's gown and rest will have darker ties. Get ready ASAP. I need to go to the site and check the decor." Kuhu instructed and left. To put mishti's wandering mind at rest, they had decided an open venue for the function and not either of the houses. Although on Abir's insistence the wedding would take place at the Maheshwari house, because all their best memories had taken place there.
Abir got ready and couldn't help but wonder how mishti would look in the softest shade of lavender. He had a blurry memory of seeing her in a gown on Kunal's bachelor party and couldn't wait for his dreams to come true because no doubt she would be a vision. Abir had messaged her since morning but didn't receive a reply so obviously she was well taken care of by badi ma.
"Chaliye bhai, lets go down. Kuhu said that she's got something else planned too. And for that we need to reach before mishti and her family does."
Abir nodded and left for the site. Kuhu had been stingy about the details but all Abir knew was that, she was going to make today's function so beautiful that it would be the stuff mishti's fictional characters dreamt of. And well..well that was enough to win over Abir's heart. The function was taking place in an open lawn, and was beautifully decorated with white flowers and a luscious looking green grass. When Abir and Kunal walked in, they were left floored. An aisle was created in the middle with a stage set up in the front that had a love seat, where Abir and mishti were going to be seated. On either sides of the aisle where some beautiful benches that would be occupied with the Maheshwaris, Nanu and Jugnu. Kuhu came up to Abir, straightened his tie, put a white lily in his suit pocket, gave him a quick hug and left. Abir was left standing, up front by the stage and everyone from the Maheshwari family had also taken their seats. The only ones missing were Bade papa and mishti. Kunal for some reason refused to take a seat and stood by Abir.

A beautiful melody started playing in the background and the lyrics, stunned Abir.
(A/N- PLEASE PLEASE LISTEN TO THIS SONG WHILE READING THE FOLLOWING PART. I WILL BE ATTACHING A LINK AT THE END OF THIS CHAP.)

All my fears have gone,
When you whisper to me,
No matter how
Near or far apart

Abir was left speechless with the lyrics and his jaw was left further open when he saw mishti walking towards him, on bade papa's arm. Dressed in a beautiful lavender dress, she practically looked like his favourite dream come true. Mishti's eyes were watering too when she heard the lyrics to the song.
As bade papa walked further the song continued.

When you feel so lonely
(Have you completely erased me)
I'll be here to shelter you
(From your memories from yours)
When you feel so lonely
(While I still feel your breeze)
I'll be here here for you
(Holding your hands again)
(Holding your hands)

Bade papa and mishti reached Abir and Kunal near the stage when the singer crooned,

If I could fly above the clouds like all the birds
And I could hold you for a while
To let you feel my pulse
Still here all alone.

Bade papa, put a hand on Abir's cheek and gave him a wide smile and then gave mishti's hand in Abir's hand with a smile.
The singer continued,

My whole life and all my heart
You're my whole life and all my heart
And I'm here home, home
With you
With me
