"Aare itni heavy saree kese pehnu? " I think looking at my outfit for today's reception.

I won't lie Maan's choice is really great, but it's heavy as well.

Someone knocks on the door, and I open it, It was Riddhima Maa, who was ready and was looking so beautiful in her light
Pink colour saree.

"Maa you are looking so beautiful, hame shak ho raha hai, reception humara hi hai naa? Kyunki nai naveli dulhan to aap lag rhe hai." I say to her, making her blush, she slap my head gently and shook her head chuckling.

"Pagal.... Why are you not ready yet shivu, we have to go in some hours " She says to me.

"Mummy, apke bete ne sabse heavy saree choose ki hai, I don't know how to wear it " I complain to her and she smiles.

"I knew it, that's why I am here, now go and wear the petticoat and the blouse, I will help you with the rest, thank god your make up and hairstyle is done." She says pushing me in the closet.

I smile at this, she knows me better than my own mother, I smile sadly at this, but then shook my head at this thought.

No Shivantika you will not think about this, you will not think about people who don't care about you, I say to my self.

After wearing the petticoat and the blouse I come outside, and mum whistles looking at me, I look at her with wide eyes and she just laugh at it.

She helped me wearing the saree perfectly, and after that she took some kajal from her eyes and placed it behind my ear not before whispering a small 'nazar naa lag jaye'

She was going to make me wear the jewellery but someone called her from outside.

"Maa you go I can wear them myself. " I day to her and she nods.

After she went I look at myself in the mirror.

The smokey make-up on my face, the Bindi between my eye brows, the sindhoor and the mangalsutra, were indeed making me look so beautiful.

I was getting ready in a different room because maa ordered me to get ready here since Shivantika was getting ready by some make up artist.

Now that I'm ready I was going to spray some perfume on, but then I realized that my favorite perfume was in my room.

So I went there, when I enter the person in front of me made my breath hitch.

My breath caught in my throat as I took in her appearance-clad in a brown saree paired with a silver and brown blouse, adorned with a maang tika and a touch of makeup. For a moment, time seemed to stand still as I forgot to breathe, mesmerized by her beauty.

Throwing my phone on the bed i took some steps towards her,
She turn towards me, and looked at me with her innocent eyes.

"Maan you look so handsome in Indian wear" She says to me and I smile at her.

"Aap itni khubsoorat banke Kiska kataal krne jaa rhi hai" I come in front of her, and hold her bare waist and in reflex her hand comes to my chest.

I take the earrings from the table and then make her wear it.

I took her hands from my chest , kiss the back of it and then I started slipping the bangles onto her arms, their subtle tinkling sound adding to the enchantment of the moment. With a delicate touch, I placed a beautiful necklace around her neck,the shine of it adding more glow to her face.

Through the process my gaze remained at her.

Watching how my my touch made her squirm and shudder in her place, how she blushed when I made her wear the necklace or when unintentionally my fingers touched her back.

"Kisne kaha tha aapko itna khubsoorat dikh ne ko, Hame dar hai ke aapko hamari hi nazar naa lg jae" I say to while tucking her hair behind her ear.

She blushes looking at me.

"Nhi lage gi, mamma ne pehle hi kala tika lga diya " She says and then continues "pr aapko kisi ki nazar lg gaiy to? " She remove some kajal from her eyes and then placed it behind my ears.

"Hame kiski lage gi? Sab logo ki nazare to aaj aap pe hogi." I tell her, she hug me and then says
"Logo ka kiya, aapki nazar honi chahiye haam pr" I too wrap my arms around her "hamari nazar hamesha aap pr hi hai." The moment was broken when someone entered inside without knocking.

"O my god I'm so sorry guys" Samiksha said, I close my arm in frustration as shivantika broke the hug, taking some steps back.

"It's ok, Sam why are you here? " She says blushing while adjusting her saree.

"Oo ya actually aunty was calling you downstairs, luckily Abhi, tum bhi idhr hi ho" She says.

"Haaye mere bacche kitne acche lg rhe hai sath mein"Riddhima exclaimed when they descended.

" Yaa bhabhimaa and bhaisa you look so beautiful " Avinash days and rehan nod st him in agreement.

"Samiksha side hat.. I mean side hojao, I want to take their picture" Riddhima says taking her phone out.

Samiksha obligated rolling her eyes, she went near kaliyani and stood there.

"Yeh kiya hai, aapne kaha tha ke Abhi hamara hoga, pr aap kuch nhi kar rhe, Dadi I can't see them together anymore, do something before I do anything wrong." She gritted angrily, Dadisa looks at her and says "thora dheeraj rakh meri jaan, abhimanyu tumhara hi hokar rahega, chahe uske liye mujhe kisiko hatana bhi paare."

" Maa, chalo naa, we are getting really late" Avinash said making everyone nod and step out of the house.

🌼

They both stepped out of the car and when they did all the cameras were around them clicking their pictures.

Shivantika look around Uncomfortably and nervously and sensing her emotions Abhimanyu held her hand tightly and whispers to her I'm here with you.

Abhimanyu stood there without any expression as if he was used to it, and why wouldn't he, he was the king of Jaipur and CEO of RATHORE'S, a company which was everyones dream, these things were common to him.

"Hukum sa , you got married then why did you hide it? " "Sir where you forced in this marriage? " "Sir when did you get married? " "Hukum sa is this love marriage or arrange? "

Many questions were asked to them but they did not respond, they just stop there for some photos that will be on tomorrow's magazines and newspaper.

Than Abhimanyu places his hand on her waist and then started going inside the hall where the party of their reception will be held.

When entered Shivantika held his hand tightly.

"What happened? Are you okay?"
He asks her in concern.

"Why there are so many people? Maa said that there will be only close people and the paparazzi's " She asks nervously while looking at all the people.

"These are only few, abhi or aa ne waale hai, they all are our business partner from various countries. And the king,queens" He says and she nod.

When they step inside the Hall, everyone became silent, Abhimanyu entered with his head held high, his aura screaming power,authority and danger while on the other hand Shivantika who was on his left walked with a small nervous smile, her walk, her charm reflecting innocence and calmness.

When they reached the stage Abhimanyu nods at them and all of them started enjoying just like they did before.

Shivantika looks at him in surprise, he wasn't the Maan she knew, the playful one, the flirt,the one who used to express his emotions, he was The Abhimanyu Singh Rathore, the one that she saw in the magazine's and on the news, totally different from the one she knew, totally emotionless.
