Away From Façade

Shubh ghadi aayi

(Focus on dress, not face...You have to imagine them as Roohi-Maan)😜

Aarohi: Now, tell me, what's up??

Aarvi: Nothing.

Aarohi: Hmm?

Aarvi: Well...I always wanted you to marry bhai but now that you guys are getting married...it feels weird. I feel like you will go away from me.

Aarohi (laughs): Oh my sweetheart, how will I go away from you. Won't I be even closer to you? We will live in the same home, eat together, play together, shop together, celebrate together. Why are you thinking like that?

Aarvi: But then you will be bhai's wife not my friend.

Aarohi: Can't I be both? Your friend and your brother's wife.

Aarvi: You can be.....

Aarohi: Acha fine, tell me, whom did I meet first?

Aarvi: Me 

Aarohi: Who became my friend first?

Aarvi: Me

Aarohi: When I first met mumma papa, whose parents were they, for me?

Aarvi: Mine.

Aarohi: As whom did I went to Chauhan mansion first?

Aarvi: My best friend.

Aarohi: Why did I meet Maan?

Aarvi: I told you to meet my brother.

Aarohi: That's it.  Everyone and everything in my upcoming life is connected to you. You are the little angel who introduced the world of happiness to me. Then why are you sad? Did anyone say something to you??

Aarvi: No...I..I just heard Akshara talking to one of her friends and they were discussing how she doesn't even have time to call her since she got married. So I got worried.

Aarohi: Awwww, my Aaru loves me so much.

Aarvi: Shut up! Don't tease me. 

They both start laughing.

Aarohi and Aarvi have some little talks and fall asleep.

Next morning

Everyone was busy with decoration and other preparations.

Mimi: Bachon tum sab jaldi jaake ready ho jao. Tab tk hm bhi vidhi ki saari tayariyaan kr lenge.

Swarna: haan baaki decoration baad m kr lena vrna muhrat ho jayega aur tum log ready nhi hoge.

Akshara: Ok hum sab ready ho jaate h, aap log bhi ready ho jaana.

Manish: Aarohi kahan h?

Akshara: Bade papa, Aaru ready ho rhi h. 

Manish: Ok.

Everyone went to get ready. 

After an hour or so, everyone gathered in the hall. Pandit ji also arrived.

Then entered the main characters: Ruhi and Maan 

They sat on a seat at centre. Pandit ji performed some rituals. 

A red chunri was placed on Aarohi's head. Alka put a tilak on their forehead.

Later Alka gave some gifts to Aarohi and Manish gave some to Aaryaman. 

Everyone clapped and rose petals were showered on the couple.

Alka came forward and blessed Aarohi by giving her a pair of anklets.

After that, the couple went to elders and took everyone's blessings.

All the youngsters congratulate them.

After the function ended.

Aarvi: Bhai, when are you going back? 

Aaryaman: Day after tomorrow. Why?

Aarvi: Why don't we all go on a little outing tomorrow?

Akshara: Great idea. We should go to some picnic spot, or an amusement park?

Mimi: Listen to me, let's go to mandir. Yahan se thodi door hmari kuldevi ka mandir h. Nye jode ko vahan se aashirvaad lena chahiye. Vahan chalte h, Akshu ki shaadi ke baad bhi vahan nhi jaa paaye the toh tum log bhi ab aashirvaad le aana. 

Kairav: Kya Mimi, mandir phir kabhi chle jayenge. Abhi kahin aur chalte h na.

Manish: Kairav, maa sahi kh rhi h. Tum bache phi kabhi ghum aana. Kl hm sab mandir chalte h.

Aarohi: Ok bade papa.

Swarna: Toh phir kal subah niklte h hum log. Dophar se pehle pohanch jaayenge. Aur Alka ji, aap or Arjun ji bhi chaliyega hmare saath.

Alka: Okay.

All the elders left.

Aarvi: What was that? Mere itne ache idea ka ye kya hogya?

Akshara: It's okay. You did your best.

Aarohi: Ok, now stop this dramebaazi. Kuldevi ka mandir hill pe h. Vahan pe koi fancy restaurants nhi h but we can surely have a outdoor picnic or camping there. 

Kairav: Right. I didn't think that! I will get all the things we willl need tomorrow. Let's go to picnic.

Everyone: Yeah!!!!

Everyone went back to their room and slept.
