CHAPTER 20: The Se7en Phere(the wedding)

Everyone settled down as arnav and khushi sat in their respective places and the pandit began to recite the remaining chants. Arnav and khushi were quite excited as the proceedings began. Arnav didn't know much about all these rituals that were performed, he was getting a tad bit impatient

Arnav(thinking): how much does the panditji have to speak. I just want to do that fire thing and that sindoor and magalsutra thing already. Just for those three things does this guy really have to chant a zillion lines? I want this over with already before I fall asleep and then khushi kills me. Oh my god. Arnav are you crazy? You are talking to yourself. Damn it khushi. You have made me crazy.

And arnav lets out a sigh.

Khushi looks at him and giggles. She knows how impatient arnav might be getting having been made to sit through all this torture. Even though he was doing it for khushi's happiness khushi knew that he was getting mildly bugged because of the amount of time it was taking for all the formalities to get over.

The pandit then asked the two to get up for the 7 phere.

Everyone took loads of rose petals in their hands and started to throw it toward the bride and bridegroom.

Arnav and khushi were lost in each other. All they could notice was themselves. This felt right. This is where they belonged.

Arnav was walking very closely to khushi.

Arnav: don't get scared when I whisper to you alright, but I have to do this too.

Khushi looked at him confused as she didn't know what arnav was getting at. But she was shocked nonetheless. Arnav Singh Raizada might have changed but he never lost the ability to shock her.

As they completed their first phera,

Arnav: I promise to always keep you happy.

After they completed their second phera,

Arnav: I promise to never let a tear escape those beautiful eyes of yours.

After they completed their third phera,

Arnav: I promise to trust you completely.

After they completed their fourth phera,

Arnav: I promise to always support you and stay by your side.

After they completed their fifth phera,

Arnav: I promise to fulfill all your needs.

After they completed their sixth phera,

Arnav: I promise to always love you with all my heart.

After they completed their seventh phera,

Arnav: I promise to always be there to protect you from the world.

They had taken the pheres before the fire, now they were considered man and wife in front of lord agni(lord of the flames).

They sat down again. Khushi was left speechless after arnav's promises. His voice itself told her how serious he was. She knew that arnav would do anything to keep his promises to her. She had full faith in the man sitting next to her. But she noticed something in his voice that told her that arnav wasn't finished. She didn't know as to what he was waiting for but she waited for him patiently. After all the way arnav did it was the best way according to her.

Arnav picked up the mangalsutra and turned towards khushi. Khushi blushed deep red seeing the events unfold. Arnav bent forward slightly in order to reach her neck and slowly but surely his hands went around her neck and put the mangalsutra on her neck and tied it firmly.

Arnav: I promise to be by your side when you are really worried or anxious or you are troubled. I promise to be by your side holding your hand as you make 100 jalebis per second and feed them to you.

And he went quiet again. Khushi knew it was too abrupt. There was more. She knew that there was more.

Now the pandit said that it was time for arnav to apply the sindoor.

This was the part arnav was anxiously been waiting for.

He took a pinch of that exquisitely red powder and moved to khushi's forehead to apply it. Khushi was very happy. All her dreams were coming true today. each and every one of them. Exactly the way she had imagined it. No maybe this was a shade or two better than her imagination. Arnav had exceeded her expectations on fulfilling her dream wedding.

Arnav's hand had reached her forehead. He parted the mangtika(the jewel on her maang) and applied the sindoor. It was as though time was going in slow motion. It was as though arnav was taking an hour to appy the sindoor there.

Khushi now had tears filling her eyes. Tears of happiness. Tears of joy.

Arnav: And I promise to never go back on any of my promises to you.

Khushi felt her heart skip a beat.

Arnav: I love you khushi.

And that did it. Her tears started to pour out of her eyes as her smile widened.

Arnav took his hand and using his thumb wiped away her tears. Khushi just hugged him tightly. And applaud broke out. Now they came back to reality as they noticed the people cheer around them and nk was actually whistling.

Khushi felt herself blush as she moved away from arnav embarrassed. Arnav looking at her blush smirked. They went around taking the blessing of their elders. Naniji, buaji, babuji, Anjali all blessed arnav and khushi for eternal happiness. Since the wedding was in the house itself the vidaii function was that arnav would take khushi in the car and take a round of the house and come back in. this happened quickly as naniji had asked the gupta's to stay for the ghar pravesh and the after marriage games. The guptas had finally succumbed to naniji and anjali's pleading. So arnav took khushi in his SUV and took a round of the house. Before he could come back in he stopped the car, removed khushi's ghunghat, kissed her on her lips quickly and then replaced the ghunghat and started the car again. This happened so fast that all khushi could do was feel his lips on hers and turn red without even been given a small chance to protest.

She was blushing too much now. Arnav got out of the car and helped khushi get out and they made their way back into the house.

The aarti happened and at the end of which arnav was asked to carry khushi.

Arnav: ha piece of cake.

And went to lift khushi. But he decided to have some fun too. After all it was his marriage too.

He put his hands on khushi to lift her. Then he started to make faces.

Arnav: khushi, god you have become heavy. Cant lift you. Have you already turned fat?

Everyone laughed as they saw the shocked look on

Khushi's jaw dropped and her mouth made a perfect 'O'.

Before she could reply arnav picked her up in his arms.

Arnav: how ever heavy you become I will always be able to pick you up tomato.

Khushi blushed at his remark. And hid her head on his chest.

Now there were a couple of games left before arnav and khushi were allowed to go to their room.

First one was the thread game where they had to use one hand and remove their partner's thread as quickly as possible.

Khushi: mr.Raizada get ready to loose. I am going to win this one.

Arnav: oh khshi, don't you know. Arnav Singh Raizada never looses.

Khushi: ha. But this is a game for speed. And your big ego isn't going to help you out here.

Arnav: wanna bet?

Khushi: definitely. Its your fate to loose in all your bets to me.

Arnav smirked. There was something fishy about his smirk.

Arnav: we'll see.

Anjali: oh god. You both are married and still having your usual fights huh?

NK: leave that di. Lets play the game. We have to see who is better. I am the one who is going to time both of them.

It was khushi's turn first. She untied it in about 2 and a half minutes.

Next was arnav. Khushi was sure she would wi. She looked at arnav. His eyes were on hers. They both had an eyelock. And arnav began to untie khushi's thread. It took him less than a minute. All khushi could do was scowl at arnav while he smirked.

Khushi: tell me how you cheated. You cant possibly have won so easily.

Arnav bent forward to her ear and slightly whispered,

Arnav: after having to tie your dori so many times, the task of untying becomes rather easy.

Khushi turned dark red as she registered as to what arnav was saying.

Khushi:arnav. Have you no shame. Talking like this infront of your family.

Arnav: you are my wife khushi, I can speak to you however I want and if anyone is eavesdropping its their problem. Not mine.

Khushi turned away. It was useless trying to argue with arnav.

Now it was the ring finding ceremony where both of them had to find a ring hat is immersed in a bowl of milk and roses. Arnav loved this game already. He knew it was perfect for his plan.

Anjali: fine. You both immerse your hands partially and when I say go, start searching for the rings. Got it?

Arnav: yes di.

Anjali: go

And both of them immered their hands into the milk. Khushi was trying to search for the ring. But arnav had something else in mind. Under the milk he slipped his hand onto khushi's and clenched it in his hand tightly.

Khushi's eyes widened as arnav caught her hand tightly.

However hard she tried she could not free her hand. Due to the touch khushi had already started blushing and every second that passed made her a shade redder.

Arnav loved the effect. He loved his cute wife who blushed at the tiniest of things.

Then arnav suddenly let go leaving her in a dazed state ad found the ring. He smirked at khushi as she was still shocked at his touch.

When she came back to her senses and saw arnav holding the ring out and everyone clapping, she pouted and looked away angrily.

Khushi(thinking): you laad governor you cheated.

Arnav went near khushi and took her hand and put the ring on her finger shocking everyone.

Anjali: the person who wins is supposed to wear the ring chottey.

Arnav: di I did win. I have khushi as a prize. And this ring is still with me. its on Mrs. Arnav Singh Raizada, my better half.

Everyone clapped and khushi just hugged him tightly.

Anjali: ok ok. All games are now over. Its time to take khushiji upstairs.

Arnav: don't worry di. I'll do that.

Said arnav playfully, while khushi blushed crimson red on hearing arnav talk so frankly.

Anjali: chottey, how shameless have you become huh? And look because of you bhabhi is becoming all shy.

Arnav: di, only girls blush. I can say and do whatever I want. I am Raizada, Arnav Singh Raizada.

Mamiji: ee lo, we have a james bond in our house. Hello hi bye bye. And arnav bitwa's wife is sari, Phati sari.

And she laughs at her own joke.

Arnav: mamiji, everyone in this house have their proper names. I will not stand anyone calling them by other names. Please respect and get respect.

Anjali seems to see the tension escalating and she quickly tries to change the mood,

Anjali: fine chottey, wait here until I call you.

Akash and nk come and take arnav to a corner.

Akash: bhaai I have to warn you about something.

Arnav sighed.

Arnav: cant we talk about it tomorrow?

NK: come on nannav, we have to talk right now. As it is di has asked you to wait so you better listen to us.

Arnav sighed again. He turned a last time to see khushi disappear off the steps with Anjali.

Anjali: khushi, I and payal have a plan. But you have to help us in it.

Khushi: what plan?

Anjali: its going to make chottey very unhappy but its going to be an awesome prank.
