**Pehli Mohabbat**

The whole Shukla house was decorated with lights of different colors and wedding flowers. It looked like a big, grand, and royal wedding. The entire house was decorated with pink and silk clothes to form a ceiling canopy. There were fresh flowers and centrepieces kept on each table with chairs tied with a pretty pink bow. The house looked like heaven.

Why shouldn't it even? After all, it was the wedding of the elder daughter of the house, Bhavya Shukla.

'Didi, you have got that perfect glow before the wedding,' Kavya, Bhavya's younger sister, said, and excitement was evident in her voice.

'I am so excited,' Bhavya said while holding her sister's hands.

'You look so beautiful, didi. I can imagine jiju drooling,' Kavya teased her sister.

Bhavya looked drop-dead gorgeous in her maroon lehenga that had heavy work all around it. She had taken her dupatta over her head which made her look like a princess. She was looking like a perfect bride.

'Accha Ji, let's see how Virat will react after seeing you. I am more excited to see his reaction than my own wedding,' Bhavya teased her sister.

Kavya's heart skipped a beat at the mention of Virat. Every cell in her body started dancing, and her heart started beating very fast.

Kavya Shukla and Virat Sharma were childhood best friends turned sweethearts. Their friendship meant so much to them that they couldn't help but fall in love with each other. They were each other's first love. Nothing is more beautiful than two best friends falling in love. Even their families were friends. Aditya Sharma was Virat's elder brother who was getting married to Bhavya.

An Indian wedding is a joyful and extravaganza affair, comprising many colourful customs and rituals which add excitement and happiness.

All eyes were on Bhavya as she descended the stairs. But Virat's eyes were searching for only one person, his first love, the love of his life, his best friend, his Kavya. Kavya looked eternal in a pink and blue saree, with big jhumka in her ears and open hair. His eyes dwelled in happiness seeing the love of his life, and he imagined her in bridal attire. He felt like he had fallen in love with her all over again.

Marriage is a responsibility which two people accept in their life. It is about standing together and facing the world. It is about never taking the other for granted. It is about being with the right one.

The priest began chanting the sacred mantras. When it was time for the pheras, Kavya tied the knot and stood beside Virat.

'You are looking so beautiful, love,' Virat whispered near her ears.

A pair of hands suddenly wrapped around her waist, and Kavya shrieked out in surprise.

'What are you doing, Virat? People are here; what if someone sees us?' Kavya asked while trying to remove his hands from her waist.

'So what? Let people watch. I am romancing with my future wife, not any stranger. It is our turn to marry after Bhai and bhabhi.' Virat said while nuzzling his head into her hair.

Kavya blushed at the mention of marriage, and Virat softly kissed the back of her head. Virat came beside Kavya and held her hands.

'Every time I hold your hand, you give me another reason to love you,' Virat said and kissed their interlocked hands.

Seeing Aditya and Bhavya taking the pheras, an idea popped up in Virat's mind.

'Kavya, I too want to make some promises to you with each phera Bhai and bhabhi take. Imagine us taking the pheras,' Virat said.

Kavya was so elated that she couldn't speak anything; she just rested her head on his shoulder.

'I promise that I will always be there for you.'

'I promise that I will always trust you.'

'I promise that I will never take you for granted.'

'I promise that I will always keep you happy.'

'I promise that I will never let anything come between us.'

'I promise that I will always respect you and your choices.'

'I promise that I will never let our love fade.'

'Pehli Mohabbat ho tum meri, I can never stop loving you,' said Virat, looking at Kavya's eyes with love.

"Shh, you don't need to promise; I trust you. I know that you will do all these even without promising. You are my everything. You are my secret ingredient to happiness. I love you, Virat.' Kavya said with a smile on her face.

Now it was time for Kanyadaan, and the priest called Mr and Mrs Shukla for it. Mr Shukla had tears in her eyes, but Aditya assured her that he would take care of Bhavya, and they both did the Kanyadaan. Kavya was crying silently, and Virat assured her that her sister would be happy.

'Why are you crying? Bhabi is not going anywhere but her other home. In no time, you will also join her,' Virat wiped her tears.

Hearing this, Kavya's body reacted with a strange happiness. Butterflies were erupting in her tummy. She felt a sudden spark. Her body was dancing to the tune of love. She was thinking how marriage is a sacred bliss- it fuses two souls by commitment. It joins two hearts in the purest form of love.

Aditya tied a mangalsutra around Bhavya's neck and filled her hairline with sindoor. The priest declared them as married. Finally, it was time for bidai. While departing, Bhavya threw puffed rice over her head, leaving her good wishes for the family. The sisters held each other's hands and were not ready to leave each other.

Virat looked at Kavya, and his thoughts kept going back to her and their future. Would their love story walk the same path as Bhavya and Aditya? Or would there be something unpredictable, something which could change the course of the path entirely? But, he was sure of one thing- his eternal love for Kavya.
