Next day.

Today morning was a blissful one for arshi. They felt unknown happiness. They felt this would be their best day.

Today a special Pooja was conducting in one of the famous temple there. They were invited. So all are getting ready .

Khushi wear a red saree which arnav gifted her along with few jewelries. She looked beyond beautiful. Anjali applied a khol behind her ear.

Expectedly payal didn't went with them so lavanya stayed with her as she also don't like to visit temple more often.

************************************

Soon they reached temple.

They mesmerized by the decorations.

Anjali fished out her mobile and call her husband Arjun through video call to show him.

Akash slipped from there without others knowledge and made a video call with someone.

Nk and aman left out. They don't to whom they should speak. So don't have a choice but call nani, mama and mami through group video call.
Elders really liked the decorations through their mobile.

Arshi... Don't ask... They are the first one to flew away...

There was a garden area there that looked pleasantly with a greeny scenario and the pond in middle.

Khushi who was holding arnav's hand moved a little ahead and watched in amazement.

Arnav turned her to him.

Arnav: khushi... I... I... Taking a long breath... I am not good with words. I know you have idea what I am going to say. I don't know any filmy dialogue. But I know I fall for you khushi... From when? I myself don't know. If love at first sight? I don't know. Because even before I saw you,
you have occupied my heart and mind. I don't know which in you attracted me first. But I know everything in you pulled me towards you. Attracted me. I am a CEO of AR. The fashion house. Top most models were working around me. But I found only you as beautiful. My beautiful... I feel my half soul is you. Your innocent heart. I want to rule and you to mine. I want you all for me. I don't know how to express what all this. But I know one thing. That... Cupping her face.

"I LOVE YOU"

Two voice echoed in union. Arnav and khushi confessed together. Tears pooled in khushi's eyes.

Arnav kneeled down in front of her.

Arnav: I want to live my whole life with you. I want to shower you with my love. I want to be loved by you. I want all of you for myself. I want us to be each other's. Will you marry me khushi?

Khushi: yes.

Khushi nodded while tears rolled down her eyes. Arnav stood up. Cupping her face arnav kissed her forehead. And kissed away he tears. Standing on her shoes khushi kissed arnav forehead cupping his face. Arnav dashed his forehead with khushi. They savoured the moment.

Arnav showed her the mangal sutra he kept in his coat which was selected by his mother for his wife.

After little moment they went inside the temple.

Old: beta?

An old woman called arshi. They frowned looking at her glaring them.

Old woman: don't you know our culture. This is a sacred place. You too are using this place like a park.

Arnav: we confessed our love Aunty. This is a sacred place that's why we confessed here. Our love is pure.

Old woman: whatever. But how could you two be together before marriage. Don't you know any of our culture. Girl shouldn't come out with others. Didn't your parents teach you that.

Arnav: you are crossing your limit.

Old woman: you two crossed your limits. You maybe mordern but we respect our tradition. We are following our morals. The woman went on and on. People gathered here. Anjali, aman and nk too came there.

Khushi was at the edge of crying. Arnav couldn't tolerate more.

Arnav: Enough. Stop there. Your problem is we are not married.

Right?

Clutching khushi hand arnav dragged her in front of the idol gently. There was already holy things were placed. And middle there was holy fire all looked like that was made for a marriage.

Arnav and khushi sat before the holy fire. No one ask them anything. The pandit chatted mantra as if he was waiting for it.

Though they didn't expect, arshi didn't felt bad.

Arnav glared at the lady but found her smiling at them.

Arnav tied the mangal sutra around her neck. Filled her partion with vermilion. They took seven vows.

All happened so fastly. Their family saw this through mobile as none of them cu the call out of shock.

Coming out of shock one of a pandit ask to the old one head among them.

Pandit: swami ji this Pooja and the decorations for to do THEIR marriage na. But you did this marriage to this couple. I can't get you.

The head of the pandit: I have done the most sacred thing. And there is nothing wrong. Today was the day THEIR marriage took place the same day this marriage happened. So this was gouri Shankar wish. That's why I didn't stop them when they sat there. I am blessed to do their marriage.

Gupta's and Raizadas siblings came out of the shock and hugged arshi.

Anjali and aman was shedding happy tears.

Akash was most emotional one. He hugged arshi together. Even arshi reaproched feeling different emotion inside.

Elders blessed them.

When arshi looked for that old woman there was no one.

************************************

Arshi were traveling to the mansion they gone accidentally. They visited again because of khushi's insistence. But the old couple in that mansion said that was not the time to come inside.

Parking the car arnav clutched khushi hand in him and Walked.

Arshi took the step together.

They stood there mesmerized as the palace was decorated with flowers and lights.

The old couple was waiting for them with huge smile on their face.

Arshi looked each other and walked towards entrance holding each other hand.
