Ragini

Making dad agree was such a difficult task.

He isn't in favor of me getting married now. He thinks that I need more time to understand Laksh and know if it's really going to work between us or not. But I'm sure that we're definitely going to work together.

I have somehow made him agree.

I don't blame him though. I can understand him. He's a father and I'm his only child. My parents have always been very protective of me. The fact that I'm going to leave them after marriage makes them more upset.

I sighed as I pinned the dupatta to one side and looked at myself in the mirror.

Today I'm going to meet Laksh's parents. I'm feeling so nervous. I just hope they'll like me and I'll be what they want their daughter in law to be.

I was wearing a cotton anarkali suit.

I don't wear traditional clothes often

I don't wear traditional clothes often. I just wear them on festivals or occasions.

I asked Laksh about what I should wear. He said wear anything. His parents don't have problem with western clothes but still, I decided to wear this.

I picked up my clutch and walked out of the room. I told my parents that I was leaving and left the house. I found Laksh as always waiting for me. He was dressed in casuals. A green shirt with a pair of jeans.

He looked at me and his eyes showed surprise.

"You look different." he said as I walked over to him.

"Different in a good way or in a bad way?" I asked.

"Ofcourse in a good way."

I smiled at that and both of us got inside. His house was at the other side of the city so it was going to be a long drive.

"Will they like me?" I asked him.

I have asked this question to him hundred times in the past week.

"God Ragini! Why do you think that they'll not like you? Just relax! They're definitely going to like you. I have already shown your picture to them and they liked you."

"Still..."

"Stop overthinking."

I took a deep breath as I kept looking out of the window.

"Why are you so silent?" he asked after a while.

"I'm just nervous." I replied, still not looking at him.

"You don't need to be. My parents are very understanding and loving. They're not scary." he said chuckling.

I looked at him and smiled a little.

"By the way, I wanted to ask you something." he said.

"What?" I asked.

"After we get married, where do you want to go on honeymoon?" he asked winking at me.
