Long Way
When I finally graduated, I thought 12+2 years of studying is finally done. My mother told me I was stepping into a new path of life and the sense of pride she felt in me when I wore my cape still remains a fresh memory.
My father came up to me and told me that I was a big girl now, and eventually proceeded to hold my hand while crossing the road
the crowd heard her pause and giggle in an attempt to hold back her tears
From holding my hand to cross the road to holding my hand while walking down the aisle, we have come a long way papa”
She said while looking at a couple holding on to each other with tears not planning to stop
“Don’t you think that I forgot about you Ma, in my eyes you will always be somanth’s Sabse sundar ladki. From helping me wear my cape on the day of my graduation to helping me drape my saree today for my wedding , we have come a long way too.
I will conclude everything by saying, mumma papa, Thank you for making me believe in Love stories. Thank you for making me who I am today”
There stood Shiva and Raavi, watching their daughter Shivani, give her wedding speech. Indeed they have all come a long way
