What We Wanted Vs What We Got

An Unknown Past

So since i got positive response on horror os, here it is
This is my first attempt in this genre so plz bare with me if you find something irrelevant

Prateek & Sanjana Khanna neil's parents

Namita Khanna- neil's paternal aunt/bua

Avni is an orphan& has lived in orphanage
She met neil in her office
They worked together& soon fell in love
Since Avni was a decent& beautiful, neil's family agreed for the marriage

#####

After the wedding, AvNeil reach khanna mansion
When they get off the car, avni heard sniffs behind her back- as if a girl was crying
She turns at once but found nobody
She was still lost in her thoughts when she heard her in laws calling her so she shrugged off her thoughts& moves forward
Sanjana did AvNeil's arti& avni kicks the bowl of rice& then dips her feet in the red liquid

As she moved forward& left her footprints, the family also went inside the house
But unknown to everyone, another pair of feet dipped themself in the red liquid& another pair of footprints were left beside avni

Everyone went to their rooms& suddenly the floral decorations on the walls& in the entire house became dry

*****

Neil entered their room which was decorated beautifully
He smiled& sat beside avni, making her blush
He held her wrist gently& as he made her face him, he fell off the bed in shock- she wasnt his avni
Instead, she was another girl wearing bridal dress but had a pale face, smudged makeup& messed up hair

N-kon...kon ho tum?

A(confused)-neilu kya hua?

N-waha bed pe koi baitha h...

Avni moved her gaze but found nobody

A-waha koi nahi h
Itne saare rituals ke baad tum thak gaye ho
Chalo so jaate h

He brushed off his thoughts
They changed into night dresses& slept
Neil smiled on seeing avni shifting her self totally on him

N-my sweetheart
I love you

He kissed her hair& let sleep take over himself

*****

Late night-

Everyone was sleeping in their rooms when suddenly avni got up, got out of neil's arms& went towards namita's room, who was confused on seeing avni in her room

Na-avni tum yaha kya karri ho?
Jao jaake so jao
Kal tumhari pehli rasoi bhi toh h

Voice-aapne muje pehchaana nahi bua ji?
Men avni nahi hu

Na(trembling)-tum...tum toh...wo...

A-bilkul sahi bua ji

Na-par esa kese ho sakta h?

Before namita could say anything further, she was held by her neck, dragged to terrace& thrown from the edge-in a place were she would never be found
After this, she went downstairs, broke the lock of vault& her eye glittered on seeing the amount of jewellery boxes inside it
She picks a small box containing diamond bangles

She knew they were the ancestral (khaandani) diamond bangles of neil's family
She wore them& then saw her reflection in mirror& instead of avni, a girl was visible-clad in bridal dress- the same girl whom neil saw sitting beside him in his room few hrs ago
She smiled on clinkling the bangles with her bridal choora
The reflection again turned into avni which clearly meant that she was now possessed with an evil spirit
