WRITER'S POV

Karan and Rishabh both went down and Karan saw his mom looking at him and passed her a smile.

"Good morning!"he wished him.

"Beta yaha aa, mehndi laga de!"his mom told him

"What?"he screamed in shocked.

"Beta sagun ki mehndi hain sabko lagani padti hain"she explained

"Han maine bhi lagai thi toh tu kya cheez hain?"his dad joked, slapping his back and pushing him to where is mom was sitting

 "Maa thoda sa laga na, ek dum thoda ek dot se bhi chota!"he said giving his hand forward, and his mom laughed putting a small dot for him.

This is same mehndi that Preeta was going to put! After all the rituals at Karan's place were over his mom and Rishabh went to Preeta's place to give the mehndi.She came to wish Karan's mom and Rishabh. She wore a green choli, looking very elegant.

"Vese beta hak to maa ka hota hain apni beti ko sbase phele mehndi laga ne ka., par aj se main bhi tumahri maa hun, kabhi bhi koi shiyat ho karan ke bare main ya fir koi bhi problem kabhi bhi hue toh aj se sab se phele muje bata na! Ok?" 

Karan's mom said patting her face. And she nodded slowly.His mother put a small dot for her and they left soon after to finish the rituals at his place.

"Di please main lagu apko mehndi...thodi slow hogi apki tarah speed nhi hai but main gai hun na classes mein muje aati hain, please, please, please!" Shristi begged and Preeta smiled agreeing 

Preeta's Pov

Don't know if what is happening is right or wrong. But I do know what I feel! It's a strange feeling. Does he really like me? What's in store for us I have no clue, I just wish that my parents stay happy,I can got through anything for them!But why do I feel as if something is wrong? I should be happy I am getting married to a good person and his family members are amazing too, and more over he has accepted me he wants me to be with him. But I just have this pittish feeling in my stomach as if something is not right.No Preeta don't be so negative! It's all going to be fine. Karan and I will figure a way out!

"Di what are you thinking?" Shristi interrupts my thoughts. 

I shifted my gaze and saw shristi looking at me worried "Kuch nahi" I said smiling.

"Di maine mehndi lagi di hain, fir bhi apne kuch ni kaha"she said looking at my hands

 "Apko acchi nahi lagi?" She asked suddenly worried. 

I looked at my hands, it was very beautifully, elegant and simple, just the way I like it.

 "Shristi bohot acchi hain I love it!" I said and moved myself to kiss her forehead.

"Sure na di?"she asked and nodded reassuringly.

Although I was adopted and I don't know who my real family is but Mummy, Papa and Shristi always made me feel loved and wanted. Maa had told me they wanted to get a younger sister for Shristi and because Maa had a health problems and she couldn't conceive, so they planned to adopt. When they came to the adoption centre and Papa saw me, he instantly felt a bond. And he decided that they'll adopt me. And after adopting me they didn't even want to change my name, dad just loved everything about me and so they decided they'll continue calling me Preeta.

I was very young when I got adopted, and so I don't remember what it feels like to not have a family. Shristi is only one year younger to me and so we were more like twins when we grew up. 

"I love you di!" Shristi said hugging me and I hugged her back making sure my mehndi doesn't spoil.
