One month passed very quickly for the Oberois, and indeed was it a hectic one. With everyone occupied in wedding arrangements, the focus shifted slightly from the lovebirds. But not today, for the wedding day had finally arrived.

In their apartment, Anika was observing the beauticians helping Gauri get ready, since only a few hours remained before she was to reach the mandap.

Anika: Joh aage wale baal hai, thora curl ki jiye

After hearing her sister instruct the hair stylist to do certain things, Gauri giggled and looked at Anika through the mirror.

Anika: Kya?

Gauri: I know you want this day to go perfectly, lekin yeh stylists ko chod do please. Bohot acha kaam kare hai aap dono

Gauri reassured the two beauticians, who probably had enough of Anika commenting on everything they did.

Anika: Gauri tum samajhti nahi, this has to be better than perfect

She got up from her seat and walked towards Gauri. When she was moving, Anika felt a tug on her dress. Maybe pulling on it wasn't the wisest idea, because they all heard a ripping sound right after

Gauri: kya phat gaya?

Anika: dupatta

She removed the pin and then shuffled over to her wardrobe.

Anika: kohi baat nahi, there will be another one that matches with this

It took some time for her to find an appropriate fabric that would match the golden embroidery on her black lehenga.

Gauri: aap kuch zyada stress nahi leh rhe ho Di?

Anika: tu bas naa, apni fikar kar

A knock on the bedroom door alarmed them. They weren't expecting any one else to come. Anika slowly tip-toed to the door and opener it. She was so relieved to see a familiar face, specifically Shivaay's.

Anika: aap yaha kya kare ho? Aur andhar kese aaye? Aapke paas humare ghar ka chaabi hai kya?

The last question, she spoke in alarm. Anika was sure that they hadn't got so close that he had her house key

Shivaay: door locked nahi tha, kohi bhi aa sakta tha

Her mind hadn't been on one thing as she managed several at the same time.

Gauri: Aap yaha kyu aaye Bade Bhaaiya?

Shivaay: mein bas dulhan ko dekhne aaye. Om bohot eager hai, tumhe dekhne ke liye

The mere mention of his name was enough to spark joy in her heart. She blushed a little, for which she also received a few teasings. Then suddenly her face fell into a frown. Something she hadn't realised was an issue, sprouted up in her mind.

Anika: kya hua Gauri?

Gauri: kanyadan ke vact hum kya karenge?

None of them had really gave that any consideration until she mentioned it. An awkward silence filled the room, before someone finally spoke out

Shivaay: hum karte

The decision was so random that they needed it to be repeated in order to insure they heard it right.

Anika: kya bola aapne?

Shivaay: mein tumhare saath yeh rasam karunga

Gauri: aap kese kar sakte Bade Bhaaiya?

Shivaay: tune last mein kya bola Gauri?

Gauri: Bade Bhaaiya?

She had some idea as to where he was going with this but Anika understood immediately.
