thanks Ambul.
hmm...no reason as such for picking up Pune except that it's near Mumbai. I had to send Milind's baaraat to Prachi's home. Didn't want it to be in the same city.
Let's see if Prachi reads the mail before the wedding. You will know it at some point. 😊

Part 2

Milind's paternal grandmother Lakshmi Devi Mishra was a woman of golden heart. Along with her son Dayanand Mishra, she had raised an orphan boy Inder Shah who was her friend's son. Inder had lost his parents and many of his family members in an earthquake that wrecked his village, when he was just 9 years old. Lakshmi had voluntarily taken responsibility of Inder, pursuing her husband to allow the boy to grow up with Dayanad in their house in Pune. Dayanad and Inder had grown very close to each other. As they grew up, Dayanand had moved to Mumbai starting hotel business, while Inder studied commerce and took a job in a bank in Pune itself. Dayanand's wife Asha had died due to complication in her labour, when her second child Sukruti was born. Since Dayanand refused to marry again, Lakshmi who was widowed by then had moved to Mumbai and lived with her son though she preferred her home in Pune. She had made sure Dayanand's two children never felt the absence of their mother. Back in Pune, Inder had married Premlatha and lived with their only daughter Prachi in Lakshmi's house.

Though Lakshmi lived in Mumbai, she would often visit Pune and Prachi too was nothing less than her own grandchildren for her. Seeing Milind playing with Prachi in childhood, Lakshmi had always desired to have Prachi married to her grandson. Dayanand, Inder and Premlatha were more than happy when they heard Lakshmi's thoughts, while Prachi and Milind were quite unaware of the plan. At the age of 74, Lakshmi had been diagnosed with leukemia and with her failing health, her dream of seeing Milind and Prachi married had made her announce her wishes when Mishras visited Shahs this time.

Though it came as a surprise, Milind had found his heart elated when the thought of marrying Prachi crossed his mind. He had shared a warm friendship with her in childhood and after coming back to India he had met her in a wedding in Mumbai where she introduced herself to him. It had taken him a while to connect her to the little girl whom he used to play with in Pune. There was something beautiful that knocked his heart when he saw her as a grown up, bright and beautiful young woman. A few days later, he had visited Pune with his family where he had learnt about his Daadi's plan. Neither him, nor Prachi had raised a question against Daadi's decision. However, Milind had wanted to make sure if Prachi wanted to marry him too. He had talked to her on a few occasions before their engagement though he felt weirdly shy. Prachi had seemed quite comfortable whenever she talked to him. However, Milind had felt she hadn't allowed him into the inner circle of her heart but he thought she must have been feeling the same strangeness he is feeling too. But his heart wanted to make sure that she was marrying him with her will and when he did so she had told him she was very much fine doubtlessly. After their small engagement, Prachi was busy giving her masters exams and a date for the wedding was set right after she finished with her exams.

Laskhmi Devi was the first one to wake up that morning. She woke others too one by one, got things ready to carry with them to Pune and finally knocked Milind's bedroom. Though Milind got out of the bed to open the door he soon got back into it saying he wanted to sleep for some more time. He had gone to sleep quite late in the night spending hours dreaming about Prachi and now his eyes were refusing to open.

"Beta, it's already 5 in the morning. We have to be there by 10. It's not someone else's wedding to which you can go at your ease. The wedding won't happen without you" Daadi had said pinching Milind's cheeks.

"Daadi' I am so sleepy" said Milind waking up yawning. Daadi finally had managed to push him to the bathroom. Milind came out after 15 minutes taking a shower dressed in jeans and T shirt. He knew the plan that they were going to stay in a hotel where they will get dressed up and then the baarat would go to Prachi's house. By then, Sukruti and Daadi had packed his sherwani, shoes, a few extra pairs of clothes and asked him to look at his suitcase to fill anything he found missing. Milind packed his suitcase finishing with the box that contained the chain he had bought for Prachi.

Milind's immediate family along with many of his friends and relatives gathered in his house, had started for Pune in cars and vans. Daadi, Mishraji, Sukruti and Milind were in one car and before entering Pune, Daadi had asked the driver to stop at a temple of Lord Rama on the way. Daadi had described to Milind how marriage was all about love, commitment and faith giving the example of Lord Rama and his wife Sita. Though Milind wasn't someone who would pray to God, he had felt different that day and he had genuinely prayed for God's blessings for his marriage with Prachi.

Once they reached the hotel they had booked in Pune, the Mishras got ready and Milind had looked extremely handsome in his wedding sherwani. The hue of excitement and happiness in his face had only added to his looks but his face had been soon covered with sehra. Sat on a pony, Milind rode towards Prachi's home while the baarat was all singing and dancing.

The Shahs had waited eagerly to receive the Mishras and the two families had exchanged wishes and gifts once they met each other. After lunch, Milind was taken to the mantap where he waited keenly for Prachi's arrival. When Prachi was brought into the mantap, Milind had watched his wife to be from a corner of his eyes as he was sure that his sehra was covering him. Milind's heart skipped beats to see the breathtakingly beautiful woman dressed in a bright red lehenga. He had felt a range of emotions from excitement to nervousness.

Sukruti had sat behind Milind and Prachi and stealing an opportunity she had whispered in her brother's ear if he had asked Prachi's preference when it came to his beard.

"Shhh" Milind had tried to stop his sister from taking the matter further. But Sukruti enjoyed being naughty and she had said, exposing her brother's face by sliding the garlands that hanged from his sehra, "Prachi, I mean Bhabhi, do you like my brother's beard? I really hope you do. He loves it so much that he hasn't shaved even for his wedding."

Prachi had lifted her head hearing this unexpected question. As she turned to her left, her eyes had met with Milind's but then she had bent her head down feeling awkward. Sukruti wasn't letting it go this easy and she had asked Prachi again until she gave her an answer.

"His beard suits him" Prachi had said in a low voice but that was heard by Milind. Feeling happy that Prachi had no issues with his beard a small smile marked Milind's lips covered behind his sehra, while Sukruti had giggled. By that time, the Pandit who had seen the bride and groom involved in something else other than the rituals had raised his pitch at chanting mantras to get attention.

Milind and Prachi had taken vows in front of the fire and the Pandit had successfully completed the wedding. After the wedding, Milind and Prachi had posed with the guests for photographs where the groom was finally relieved of his sehra. In the end, Milind and Prachi's immediate families had taken photographs with the bride and the groom and in particular the newly weds had insisted taking pictures with Daadi who seemed to be the happiest person that day.

After the photo session, Milind and Prachi were asked to come to the dinner hall. While walking towards the dining hall, Prachi got herself ready to go down the steps that opened to the dining hall lifting her lehenga slightly. Milind extended his hand to her so that she could balance herself better while going down the stairs. Prachi placed her hand in his smiling at him. Milind had softly pressed her hand as they walked towards their seats guided by Sukruti. He kept holding her hand even after they sat in their chairs for he just loved doing so, and when it was time to start eating, Prachi had looked at Milind with a request in her eyes to let her hand go. Milind had pressed her hand all the more tightly and enjoyed seeing her trying her best to hide her reactions, before letting her hand free.

After dinner, Prachi had introduced Milind to her friends and Milind had sat chatting with them. Much later, Mishraji had told Milind they were leaving for Mumbai in a while as Daadi had a blood transfusion appointment the next day afternoon, while he can come with Prachi after a couple of days. No one wanted to deny Milind and Prachi their wedding night and hence they had arranged for it in Prachi's room. Though Milind had always kept track of Daadi's hospital appointments, this time the date had slipped his mind though he would have remembered it the next morning, as he had a reminder set in his mobile. Feeling extremely guilty, Milind had wanted to take Daadi to the hospital himself and insisted he would leave for Mumbai too with them. Prachi who had heard the conversation between the two Mishras also had supported Milind's decision. Though the elders tried to convince Milind to stay back in Pune, no one succeeded. Finally they decided that both Milind and Prachi would be leaving to Mumbai that night itself.

As Milind realized it was going to be morning by the time they would reach Mumbai, he wanted to give the chain he had bought for Prachi on their wedding day itself. He had looked for a private moment with his bride, but it seemed impossible with one of the other person coming in between. After a few minutes, Prachi had excused herself and walked out of the house. Milind found this as the best opportunity and he had followed her hoping to steal a moment with her. As he walked behind her taking the silver box out of his pocket, he stopped after a few steps hearing Prachi talking to someone.

"I am really sorry Neev. I hope you will forgive me".
