"Your words are tormentor but your silence is also a plague.
Your presence is pernicious but your absence is also harrowing.
Your love is shallow but your hatred is unendurable.
You are the Hemlock, I'd imbibe willingly."
Love Is Strange And Isn't...
As we walked down the stairs, I could feel Ryan's breathing became faster which indicated he was worried about something.
"Where are you taking me to?" I asked.
"Shh!" Ryan shushed me. He pressed his supple fingers vertically against my lips. Such a sensual moment it was!
A few moments later, he removed my blindfold. I was amazed!
An open roof asymmetric Mandap(Pavilion where Hindus take their marriage vows) covered with vibrant coloured flowers.
I was so surprised, unimaginably happy and overwhelmed that I started crying to help get those emotions out all at once. I felt like the luckiest person alive. All my dreams were reality now. I couldn't thank God enough for this.
As I took my eyes off the gorgeous wedding set up, I looked at Ryan. He was wearing an astoundingly beautiful white 'Sherwani'. He clasped my hands and ushered me to the Mandap.
We took the marriage vows. I was finally married to the love of my life- Ryan. I was so happy that I did not realise that I do not even know "the love of my life's" surname!
As we took our 'phere'(seven rounds around a sacred fire lit for the purpose amidst the Vedic mantras), my heart was fluttering. Unknown faces cheered us up and tossed flower petals. I guesstimated they were Ryan's friends and family.
