Hi Guys!!!
I am Ranju...Hmmm not new to ipkknd forum but have never written a single post in this forum...I was a silent reader for these years.
I just love reading ff's and its been ages since I posted anything in IF, all I do is just log-in and silently read the ff's which are my stress-busters. I don't know why I suddenly felt like writing ff on arshi yesterday and that's why I am putting up this post. I have written ff's but that was long long time ago and it was on other jodis but never tried on arshi. Somewhere I lost connection with daily soaps, may be because of my education and work pressure but there are few serials which did end long time ago for which I am still connected to even today and one among them is IPKKND...
Yesterday I was watching arshi marriage scene which I have watched many times but I don't know why some random thoughts crossed my mind and I finally decided to write ff on arshi. I have lost touch in writing ff's and trying it after ages. I don't know how this story is going to shape but I literally hope you ppl like it...
Thanks for reading this short note guys..and here goes the prologue
Prologue
She sat in front of a big mirror and her friends were helping her in adjusting her heavy lehenga and getting ready for her marriage...
She thought for a moment "her marriage...a new journey of life...a new family , no it was not a new family , she knew each and every person of that family very well, moreover they were like her own family, they loved and will always love her like their own daughter and she knew this fact but will this equation that she share with them will remain the same after her marriage"
her deep thoughts were interrupted when she heard anjali saying "Kushi you are just looking way too beautiful in this bridal wear".
"I am sure di arnav is not gonna take his eyes off our beautiful kushi"...payal exclaimed. After hearing to anjali and payal she didn't knew how to react, may be she didn't wanted to react so she just looked down without any expressions on her face.
Looking at her anjali asked with concern "Are you fine kushi?? is anything wrong?" to which kushi replied "nothing di, I am feeling a little tired because of this heavy lehenga and way too heavy jewelries thatz it".
Payal just countered without any second thoughts or hesitation "don't worry kushi it's just a matter of few hours then you will be freed from this lehenga and jewelries and I am sure arnav will help you out, and you might get more tired later...so for the time being just relax" hearing to this everyone giggled.
Registering in her mind what payal said kushi got highly embarrassed but all thanks to garima who came at right time and she asked them to bring kushi to mandap as panditji is calling her.
Kushi thanked her mom in her mind who just came there at right time as her savior else she didn't even wanted to imagine where that conversation of payal was heading to.
Finally she came to mandap, lifting her lehenga a little with the help of her hands so that she can walk comfortably, looking down (because of nervousness or because she didn't wanted to look around...ugghhh god knows for what reasons ) finally she sat next to him and didn't even look at him.
As panditji chanted holy mantras both arnav and kushi participated in their marriage rituals but neither of them looked at each other. Finally their eyes met when panditji asked arnav to tie mangalsutr around her neck. It was not an intense eye lock but it was just that their eyes met for a moment.
When they looked at each other, at that moment he thought "a girl who used to express her each and every moment with lots of emotions was just sitting emotionless next to him" and she felt "she was sitting next to that guy who was in so much of love with life is now a guy living a life without any feelings , may be he is living just as he don't want to end his life".
They came out of their thoughts as anjali asked him to complete the wedding rituals. He tied precious mangalsutr made up of those black beads around her neck , filled her partition with vermillion and finally they were declared as husband and wife as they went around agnikund and recited those auspicious 7 vows of marriage.Though they took 7 vows in-front of others in their mind and heart they just promised that neither of them will accept this relationship, they would be husband and wife just in-front of society and not in between the 4 walls of their home , never will they expect from each other nor do they accept each other as life partners. By taking this vow in their heart they took blessings from their elders.
-----oOo-----
She was welcomed in raizada family whole heartedly. As a part of gruhapravesh ceremony arnav carried kushi in his arms and entered home. Though both were little irritated , though they didn't wanted to participate in all these rituals they just completed all the rituals just for the sake of their family.
Finally it was their wedding night, she was made to sit on his king-size bed in his room which was beautifully decorated with flowers, scented candles. She was clutching her lehenga tightly as she didn't know the reason, whether she was nervous or she was not ready for this god knows. She heard his footsteps and slowly tried to move her gaze to look at him. when she found him taking a pillow and quilt from cupboard. As he moved to poolside to sleep neither he spoke nor did she.
She closed her eyes for a moment in the same sitting position when she got flashes of her past where she was sitting as a bride with a blushing face and nervousness in her eyes waiting for her husband. Suddenly she opened her eyes and looked at her present husband who was facing his back towards her sleeping in poolside. She remembered her marriage that took place a few hours ago with arnav and thought its not right and it might be a sin to even think about her past when she is now married to someone else.
With lots of confusions, lots of questions to which both of them didn't had any answers, with lots of awkwardness they just drifted off to sleep without knowing what their destiny would be and where this relationship would take them.
Finally done with prologue... I named this ff "sunn saathiya" because that was the song which was playing in my mind when I was writing this prologue (It might sound silly though😆). Anyways do let me know how you felt about reading this prologue and let me know if I should continue.
Thank You😊
