The temple served as a witness to their eternal bond, and their hearts were filled with gratitude for the love and support that surrounded them on their special day.

As Pooja bid a tearful goodbye to her parents and family, she stepped into a new chapter of her life with Darshan by her side. The couple made their way to Darshan's home, where they would begin their journey as husband and wife.

Their home was filled with warmth and love as they were welcomed by Darshan's parents, Geetha and Govind. The house was adorned with festive decorations, symbolizing the joy and happiness that accompanied the newlyweds.

Throughout the day, Pooja and Darshan experienced a whirlwind of emotions. They felt a mixture of excitement, nervousness, and joy as they embarked on this new journey together.

As Pooja and Darshan settled into their new life together, Pooja expressed her need for some time to adjust. On their first night as husband and wife, she told Darshan that she would prefer to sleep on the couch, feeling that it would help her ease into this new phase of their relationship.

Darshan understood and respected Pooja's feelings completely. He knew that the journey they were embarking on would require patience and understanding, especially given the emotions and memories they carried from their past. He reassured Pooja that he would be there for her, supporting her every step of the way.

With a gentle nod, Darshan agreed to her request. He wanted Pooja to feel comfortable and secure, knowing that their love would only grow stronger with time. He understood that they both needed to take their time to adjust to this new chapter in their lives.

Throughout the night, Darshan made sure Pooja felt cared for and loved, even from the distance of the couch. He respected her need for space and reassured her of his unwavering support and affection.

As Pooja lay on the couch, her heart heavy with emotions, she found herself immersed in a dream with Tarun. In her dreamscape, she experienced a bittersweet reunion with him. They laughed, talked, and relived the cherished moments they had shared in the past. The dream felt so real, as if Tarun's presence was right there beside her.

In the dream, Pooja's tears were not of sorrow but a mixture of joy and longing. It was as if Tarun had come to comfort her, reminding her that their love was eternal and that he would always be a part of her heart.

He appeared to convey a message of love and understanding to her. Tarun gently told Pooja to give a chance to Darshan, acknowledging that he was living with her in spirit. He wanted Pooja to embrace the love that Darshan had for her and to cherish the life they could build together.

As Pooja woke up from her dream, her tears continued to flow silently. The emotions were overwhelming, as she grappled with the complexity of loving both Tarun's memory and her newfound life with Darshan. She understood that moving on didn't mean forgetting, but rather learning to cherish the past while embracing the present.

This dream served as a powerful revelation for Pooja, reminding her of the importance of embracing the present and the love that was right in front of her. Tarun's message was one of encouragement and acceptance, urging Pooja to find happiness and fulfillment in her new life with Darshan.
