SHADES OF LOVE

A meet to remember 💗

AAROHI'S POV

Its Wednesday today, and i am all set to go to the temple of lord Ganesha, i always visit bappa on Wednesday to take his blessings and goodwill!!

Although i am a Bengali but still, bappa held a special place in my heart as he is the only one who is responsible for my sukhi (happy) life.

I believe in him a lot and share my every problem and secrets to him as i know it would be safe with him and he will sort out my problem with his magic!!

Today, i wore a simple white color anarkali suit and silver earrings that look absolutely gorgeous on me!!

Haayeeee, kahi mujhe khudki hi nazar na lag jaaye!!!!

I put a small black bindi between my eyebrows and then grab my bag while stepping outside my home

I reach the temple earlier than possible as then it get highly crowded afterwords

I took the basket needed for pooja and went inside the temple after touching the entrance, there were few people at the temple who are praying to bappa that made me relieved

Hashhh!! There is no crowd!!

I cover my head with the veil and join my hands to pray to bappa with all my conscious, when i complete praying to him, i opened my eyes and a smile automatically place on my lips

After that i gave the pooja things to the priest, he gave me prasad in return!! I decide to leave the temple quietly but caught something unusual.

My eyes caught a glimpse of an old lady holding up her chest in pain while entering the temple, my eyes furrowed in confusion and i immediately walk towards her

" What happened Aunty??, are you okay, do you need help??" I asked while coming closer to her and her eyes look at me with a smile

" No no beta, i am totally fine it's just that i got tired while stepping up the stairs, no...nothing else!!" She told pantingly and i nod while taking out the water bottle from my bag

" Aunty, you need this!! you look dehydrated and tired and please sit down for a while, it will help you to get relax!!" I gave her the bottle and she takes it while thanking me

"Nahi, it's okay, beta i am totally fine, and thank you for helping me, you are really very kind and sweet!!" She told me with a genuine smile and my cheeks started heating up

" Are, Mrs. Raghuvanshi, you came!! we are just waiting for you!!" In the middle, the head-priest came and talk to the unknown lady who replied with a nod

" Ha, Panditji, mein aagayi ab chaliye pooja suru karte hai beta, you too come and join me!!" She looks at me with a beautiful smile and i just nod at her

( yes, i came, now let's start with the pooja)

I don't know who she is but she is looking very rich by her appearance that i don't notice before, and after her talks with the priest, i am confirmed that she belong to some top class family or else the head-priest will never wait for anyone!!

She stood at the front of the crowd while i just stood beside her for the pooja and again join my hands infront of my bappa!

I open my eyes after praying to my bappa and look at the lady who's giving her basket of pooja to the head priest and he gave both of us prasad in return!!

All the time i was with her,  standing aside till the head priest apply us the red tikka on our head, after that we both left the temple in hurry as a big bunch of crowd was entering the temple in our way!!
