"Sir , astrologer has come to meet you", security said to tanveer's grandfather ( vikramaditya mannat)

"Let him in" , his grandfather said quickly.

Astrologer entered into the house. The mannat family welcomed him warmly.

"Vikramaditya sir can I know the reason why you called me, " astrologer asked the tanveer 's grandfather.

"Yes of course, there  is a alliance for tanveer" , his grandfather replied him.

"What is the name of the girl" , astrologer  asked.

"Ananya ", tanveer's aunt said.

"We wish that you want to choose a good day for their wedding", tanveer's father said.

"Why not?? "Astrologer said and took the calendar.

"Next January three is most special day so the wedding can be held that day", astrologer said by analyzing the calendar.

"So it be", his grandfather said.

Cousins of tanveer cheered and congratulated tanveer.

"Before that as per the customs and traditions of mannat family visit the Lord Shiva's temple with bride and groom," astrologer suggested them.

"Who is the girl and from which family she belongs to "? Astrologer questioned.

"She is a orphan and she had no family" , tanveer's mother said.

"Oh !! What an irony!!" Astrologer concerned.

"Okay it is time to leave" , astrologer excused.

"Thank you for giving your time", The family woke and greeted him.

"Day after tomorrow we can go to Lord Shiva's temple , make arrangements for that", vikramaditya mannat insisted his sons.

"Sure Papa," they said in assurance.

The next day,

It was dawn 4 am pallavi woke and got ready for her excursion. Her flight is 8 am. Her parents also got ready and took a cab and reached airport with her. The Hyderabad airport was mostly filled with lectures , students and their parents. Each and every parent were insisting their children to be safe. There were burst of laughter , excitement of students and lecturer's
disturbance. This was pallavi's first journey on flight. Pallavi was so excited.

"Bye Papa , bye mama", pallavi bid a good bye to her parents. 

"Be safe my dear", her mother said.

"Wish you a happy journey pallavi," her father said by  smiling face.

Pallavi smiled at her parents and went for checking.

Pallavi and her friends boarded flight.
The flight was specially arranged by Pallavi's college. All the passengers were students.

The flight was taking off. All the students were shouting in excitement.

"Girls , just be silent," the lecturer
warned.

"Ma'am this is a tour", one of the remained her.

"So what?" The lecturer replied with irritation.

"Idiot" some of the girls murmured.

Songs were played. A English movie's BMG was playing.

Pallavi felt a different feeling.

"What makes me feel like this?" she asked to herself.

"Pallavi , did you saw this film?" A girl asked by hearing the song.

"Yes in theatre" , pallavi in her thoughts and said unknowingly.

"When? What? How?With whom??? Reena asked shockingly.

"I am sorry, what I said?" Pallavi came to her sense.

"You said that you watched this film in theatre" , reena said.

"No I  watched this film in home with my family", pallavi said.

"Where are you lost? "reena said and got relaxed.

"But I am having the remembrance of watching that movie in theatre how?" pallavi asked again to herself.

Then the topic was changed the girls enjoyed their journey and finally they reached Rajasthan. They got down from the flight and out from the airport. A bus was waiting for them in front of the airport. As the girls were walking towards the bus. Some were teasing their college arrangements.

"Are we all going to stay in  five star hotel or seven star hotel?" A girl asked teasingly.

"We all are going to stay in dabba" ( a small roadside restaurant) , another girl replied to her.

They got into the bus and they reached a place which is neither a dabba nor star hotels. It is a girls hostels. Getting down from the bus, they all are standing in front of a girls hostel with their luggage. Everyone was shocked.

Girls , you are going to their rooms for these three days excursion because it is very safe for you, the lecturer informed the students.

In that hostel the ground floor rooms were free. Only four girls were allowed in a room. The girls got ready and went out in the bus. They went to various places which is famous for architecture. They learnt architectural design, techniques and methods from the buildings. It became dusk so everyone reached the hostel. They were so tired. They all retired to their respective rooms.

Mannat mansion,

Ananya was drawing a picture in the note. She drew pallavi, esha ,raveena and herself. She drew them in different poses. Suddenly she heard a footsteps, so hid her note below the pillow. It was tanveer.

"What do you want now?' Ananya asked irritation.

"As per the customs and traditions of mannat family the bride and groom must visit the Lord Shiva's temple before marriage. So tomorrow we are going to the temple", tanveer said.

A fear raised in ananya  by hearing the word bride and groom.

"When is the Marriage?" Ananya asked.

"Jan 3 " tanveer was surprised that ananya agreed for wedding.

"Good night ", he said happily and went.

Ananya cannot understand what made him happy like this. By thinking about her future she lied down in the bed and closed her eyes.

Tanveer went to his cousins.

"Guys ananya agreed for the Marriage", tanveer informed them happily.

"How?" They asked.

I told her about tomorrow trip to temple but she asked the wedding date, he said.

"But it doesn't seems like she agreed," his sister said.

Tanveer's brother pressed her hand and whispered in her eyes "don't make him upset".

"Congrats" they said in chorus.

Tanveer slept in bed happily.
