SHIPRA POV

 

I woke up early in the morning. 

I love morning time again I went towards the window and started thinking about my life.

 

So finally today is my engagement and I will officially become his. 

 

Who holds on here he will also become mine. 

 

Marriage is a two-way relationship hope he knows that. 

                                          

And suddenly I remember about my best friend Pehu, 

 

Damn in this all mess I forgot to inform her so I search for my phone and dialed her no with difficulty as my Mehandi is still there but somehow I manage to call her. 

 

She picks up after five rings and spoke: “bitch you get up early it does not mean the whole world needs to get up”. 

 

I rolled my eyes at her statement and said “good morning to you too my pehu pehu.” 

 

I hear few more colorful words from her mouth and then she spoke “still why you called me at this time?” 

 

Hearing her I bit my lip and thought for a moment that how to inform her and then again I thought she is my pehu pehu and there are no formalities with her so I said.

“I am getting engage today afternoon” which she hmm and did not say anything. 

 

I just thought for a second line got disconnect but when I checked no she was online. 

Then she said “alright bye” and hung up on me. 

 

Dude, what is the problem with everyone has, why everyone is hanging up on me? grrrr.

 

And my phone ring again and saw pehu is calling so pick up my phone and before I say hello she said: “what did you say?”

And I again repeated that “I am getting engaged today afternoon” 

Hearing this she bombards with colorful words for me and I was listening calmly as there is no use saying anything when she is angry so waited for her to stop, and once she stopped she ask me now tell me who is the unlucky guy hearing this I smile and told her the whole story. 

 

After hearing me she asked me the name of the guy so I told her its Shivay Raghuvanshi.

And I did not hear anything from another side, and again for a second, I thought the line got discounted but then again she spoke “it’s The Shivay Raghuvanshi? 

The most eligible bachelor and the king of Premgadh? 

Which I reply well I don’t know about that but yes the one only. 

 

And I hear an ear-piercing shout from the other side and I guess she has started jumping. 

Omg-Omg you lucky bitch you are getting engaged to him? 

How does he look alike? 

The same as he looks in Forbes Magazine? 

I made faces and asked, “he came in Forbes?”

 

And again I hear some colorful words for not knowing anything about my would-be husband.

 

But well why she can’t understand that he suddenly came a day before and now going be my husband soon. Where does I had time to find out about him? 

 

And my family knows him and I trust them so there is no need for me to know anything about him.

 

Again I come out from my Lala land when she said I am coming and again hang up on me. 

Wow just wow.

 

I went to my room and took out my Mehnadi and went for a shower the moment I come out of my bathroom I saw Masa was arranging my dress on my bed. 

 

Hearing a door sound she look at me said “Shipra baby you eat something before the makeup artist comes as it’s a long day ahead for you.” 

 

I just nod and hug her from behind and said “masa this all is happening very fast. I am not able to digest everything” and look down. 

 

She touches my hair and said, “I know what you feeling, and trust me how much time you get still you feel the same on your D Day.” 

I pout like a kid and told her “Masa you are no help” 

Hearing me she chuckled and said “Shivay is a very good boy he will make you and keep you happy always. Just trust him always and he should be the most important person in your life no matter what. Always stand with him and stood for him, support him. Now you will be queen so don’t do anything where he has to look down because of you. Understand?” 

 

Which I nod in yes. 

 

But inside my mind, this King and Queen are getting on my nerves. 

 

I and Masa both went to the dining area and everyone was sitting there I wish them and fill my plate and started eating.

 

Then I hear my aunt said “how pity it is elder sister is sitting in the house and the younger one is getting married. 

You could’ve waited for some time Shipra. What was so hurry? 

 

Hearing this I felt like I have made some crime and felt a pinch on my heart but then I hear Dadu saying “Choti Bahu (Daughter in law) it’s not anyone’s choice here it’s a king’s order and being royal I hope you know that we can’t avoid his order. However, if you have so much problem I can discuss your concern with the king, or I would say you could do that by yourself” saying that I saw Dadu smirk and all color has gone from my auntie’s face. 

 

And she said “no-no Papa Hukum I was just concern.” 

 

Which Dadu reply “express your concern when it’s asked or keep to yourself.”

I so want to laugh but I control myself and look down and started eating. 

 

In some hour later makeup artist came and started doing her work. 

 

Oh, how I hate makeup so I told her please keep it as minimum as possible I don’t want to be all caked up. 

They did min makeup and sometimes I was ready. 

 

I saw myself in the mirror and kept on looking at myself. 

Is it me? 

 

And pehu said “yes it’s you my darling and you look so beautiful. Jiju won’t be able to take off his eyes from you.”
