Part 32
Arjun was impatiently tapping his feet sitting on the couch waiting for Pakhi to arrive. He was checking his watch every minute. It was already time for her to come he thought. Raman and Anita were sitting behind him with all three kids. Raman observed Arjun's anxiousness. He got up from his seat and sat near him "Waiting for your bride son?" Arjun scratched his head feeling embarrassed "No uncle actually Karan told they will come in ten minutes. It's been half an hour since they went to fetch Pakhi so.."
Raman chuckled "Don't feel embarrassed Arjun. Even I was waiting excitedly for Anita during our wedding. It's natural boy. See your would be wife is coming" Arjun looked in the direction Raman was pointing. His breath got caught in his throat. Pakhi was looking like an angel coming from heaven. According to him, she was looking divine and marvellous. Seeing her coming towards him, he got up. Karan, Anjali, Sanjay and Anuradha were following behind her.
She stopped near Anita "Hello aunty how are you?" Anita got up and caressed her cheek "I am fine beta. You are looking pretty" Thanking her, she blew a flying kiss to all three children and went to greet Raman "Namaste uncle" Raman placed a hand on her head "Hi dear. Your groom is being impatient since half an hour. Go he is waiting" She smiled and nodded her head at him and turned towards Arjun.
Arjun's heart skipped a beat when she gave a sweet smile to him "So finally our wedding is taking place today?" Arjun grinned at her "Yes you will be becoming my wife today darling. You are looking like a vision to see. So beautiful and gorgeous" Pakhi blushed hearing his compliment "You are looking handsome too" Arjun gave her a devilish smile. The priest asked both of them to come to Mandap.
Mandap was set at the beach side overlooking the water. Sun was shining brightly and all the family members were sitted around the Mandap. First the priest asked Arjun and Pakhi to exchange the rings.
Anjali handed her the plain platinum band which she put in his ring finger. Then Karan handed the ring to Arjun which he put in her ring finger. Pakhi was touched looking at her engagement ring. It was a beautiful heart shaped ring where one heart of gold was overlapping another heart of diamond.
Then the priest asked them to sit in front of the fire and he started chanting the hymns. Sanjay and Anuradha came forward to tie the knot of Arjun's sherwani with Pakhi's lehenga. Then they both did her kanyadaan. Then the priest asked Arjun and Pakhi to take seven rounds around fire. He was asked to tie mangalsutra around her neck and fill her hair partition with vermillion after pheras. Finally the priest declared that their marriage was completed and they both were husband and wife now. Arjun held her hand "Congratulations on becoming my wife Mrs.Khanna" Pakhi smiled at him "Congratulations on becoming my husband Mr.Khanna" They both got down from the Mandap and went towards their family. First they went to Sanjay and Anuradha and bowed down to take their blessing "Welcome to the family son. Now you can call us mom and dad like Pakhi" Anuradha said chuckling to Arjun. Arjun grinned "Of course Mom. I was always your and dad's son, right dad?" Sanjay laughed and replied "Right my son".
Then the couple took Raman and Anita's blessings. Then they went to greet the kids. Karan had asked kids to say congratulations to Arjun and Pakhi when they come to meet them. Both of them hugged the children and thanked them. Finally they went to Karan and Anjali. Karan hugged Arjun "Congratulations man. Finally my brother in law from best friend" Arjun laughed hearing him. He then hugged Pakhi "Congratulations sister. I am so happy for you. Remember your brother is always there for you!" Anjali was looking at them in admiration. Arjun looked at her and gave her a side hug. She wiped her tears and smiled at him "Congratulations Arjun. Have a happy married life ahead" Arjun smiled back "Thank you. Don't be sad Anjali. I promise to be your brother from this day onwards" Anjali was touched at his gesture "Thank you so much Arjun. I always wanted a have a brother like how is Karan with Pakhi. Today you fulfilled that wish of mine"
Karan and Pakhi came near them. He pulled Anjali from Arjun's arm and wrapped his arms around her waist "Hug your own wife!"
Arjun shook his head "I was hugging my sister like you were doing just a few seconds ago" Anjali then hugged Pakhi and wish her happy marriage.
All the family then went to have the special lunch Karan had asked the staff to prepare.
