From here to eternity

5.Marriage

Here I was staring at myself in the mirror as I was all dolled up with my wedding attire.

i am looking beautiful just how I imagined to look on this day but not like how it is happening I wanted to marry with my choice. I'm missing my mumma so much if and only she was here then this day would never have come, then I would have a better life and a loving family. Sometimes I think was it really my fault, I will lie if I say I'm not nervous surely I'm because I didn't even get to hear his voice carefully, and know nothing about him and the things I have Heard of him so far are not pleasing at all.

I just hope he isn't abusive,but even if he is, he can't do anything to me, I'm not that fragile to give in, I was thinking random things
My aunt and grandma entered the room breaking my cycle of thoughts
"Are you ready the groom has already arrived" dadi said
"Hmm" I said

I went away with them i wanted to listen to a little comforting words but nevermind I expected way too much from them I came down the stairs then started walking the aisle with my father by my side holding my hand only if he was sincere I saw Vivaan standing there looking at me, he is looking handsome,

Vivaan pov:
I stand there waiting for her to come while engaging myself in a talk with Vansh

We were talking when suddenly music started playing and there she was walking down the aisle holding her father's hand, She looked mesmerizing in her lahenga
I was staring at her and didn't realise when she came near her father extended her hand and I accepted it and helped her to come to stage while my sister behind helping her with her lahenga

Her hands felt so soft but as soon as we stood there she removed it from mine then for some time we posed for camera which was irritating to me and I can sense the feeling was mutual when I saw her face, she hid her irritation properly

After some time it ended and we were given garlands at first I put it around her neck and then if was her chance when I feel myself flying and saw my brother and my friend Shivay lifting me up so that she can't reach, so much of drama is there, her face was a little tensed as she tried to come to me, she tried jumping several times but failed everyone laughed at her, and after trying for some time she backed up with a smile and said

"Let's see how long you guys can hold him"

"Bhabhi that's not fair my hands are hurting already" vansh said

"I'm giving up now I just can't lift up this hulk anymore" Shivay said and they both put me down surely it is not easy to handle me, finally she came closer and put garland around my neck too and then we finally sat down for jaimal and after a lot of photosession and dance

We went to mandap and all the rituals started happening, the priest saying some mantras, then we took 7 fheras around the holy fire. Then we again sat down and we were covered by a cloth covering our upper body, i looked at her eyes which was looking down i don't even know what this woman is thinking was she forced because all the time she didn't look even a bit happy,she only forced a smile every time which I can see, just hope it is not what I think and anyways they were the first who come with a proposal and then said their daughter is really happy with the decision maybe I'm overthinking,
I was told to put vermilion on her hair partition.

Arushi pov:
As he put vermilion on my hair partition I was so nervous as we were covered from everyone else's eyes and I can feel him near me while putting vermilion to my hair partition some fell on my nose and lips too.

He backed away when he was done and removed the clothe and he put nuptial chain on my neck and now Im no longer Arushi Singh but now

I'm Arushi Vivaan Rajput

I chuckled at my fate.
And now comes the part where I have to say good bye to my family I looked at my father hoping to see a little softness or anything in his eyes but it was empty then I looked at my grandma who just said "be happy" and hugged me a little.

"Take care of yourself in your sasural dear" vedika said smiling only I was able to get her sarcasm
My brother was not even present there was a drop of tear escaped my eyes as I moved to Vivaan's car not because I'll miss them but just because of my fate.

His driver opened the door for us and we sat down the whole ride to his mansion was silent I was in my deep thoughts and Vivaan was busy in phone.

We reached his house after almost 40 minutes he went out first then I followed him silently we entered in front of his gate where his family members were already present with a plate of arti in their hand as we reached together they all did the rituals and after some time vertika showed me room i went inside and thanked her

"If you need anything call me well you won't need anything as bhai will be here at your service and yes wear something hot bhabhiji" my eyes widen she said running while laughing then it clicked me that it's my first night i Panicked a little but console myself "it's okay he won't do anything" i wispered to myself

"What happened" I heard a deep husky behind me which was of no other than Vivaan.
