PROLOUGE
I went in the bathroom and had a long shower, I went out wearing my formal clothes, Sonu and sister started doing my hair and makeup, after and hour or so they were done with my makeup and hair, after that they helped me in wearing my bridal dress.
As I was ready they took me before the mirror and I looked at my self.
My sister left to call my mom and aunt, Sonu was standing besides me, she made me look at my self and said,"You are looking so pretty but your eyes Tanu, they are not looking happy, look at your self Tanu and see in your own eyes and say are you happy?"
I looked in the mirror, I saw my eyes are reflected sadness but I can't help it, I have to do it for my mother. I convinced myself.
The door opened and my mom and aunt came in, my mom had happy tears in her eyes, she hugged me and said, "My baby is looking so pretty, and my wish also got completed of seeing my daughter in bridal wear".
As we were talking we heard the sound of music and crackers,everyone started shouting that the 'baraat' came. My heart beat started to increase, I was feeling very nervous, I don't know why but I was feeling like something bad is going to happen, but I ignored my feelings.
After sometime my sister and Sonu came to take me downstairs for the rituals, I was nervous and excited to see the groom, but for my disappointment the groom was wearing a shera thats why we were unable to see his face.
At the end of the stairs my aunt came and said "you will come to know who is your husband in some time".
She took me to the mandap and made me sit besides him, I don't know why I am feeling something is wrong, I am not feeling comfortable around him. Is this a new feeling or something is going to be bad with me.
All the rituals were over by now, I tried to see his face but I was unable to, now the person besides me is my husband, now my name is change, now I am no longer 'SHARMA'.
