TAMING OF THE SHREW-(RTMC)FF NEW PART PG 34 - Page 16

The entire mansion was decorated at its best . The finest wedding planners were hired , planners put in their 100% to get the setting a supreme look. Not that if 10-20% less attention were given then it would have bothered anyone as none of the host made any effort to get involved in all the aspect of planning except for signing the checks and ofcourse making sure they hired the best. So that the 'hired best' can bring out the best in everything in limited time.

The entire arrangement was at the par of the magnanimous grandeur but along with retaining the sophistication .

Prithvi stood under white canopy , this was the small engagement setting a bit away from the wedding mandap . Karan was near him , along others waiting for Aisha to arrive.

"Ok few pointers smile if anyone acknowledges u , accept wishes and compliments , I guess u won't need to speak much ; thank u , glad to meet u , thanks for your presence etcetera wud do" Priya was instructing aisha as she was walking her away from her room

"touch the feet of the elder one and look down".

Look down

Ash halted , priya looked at her in panic.

"look down . wat does that mean"

Priya inorder to cleared her doubt said

P "I meant gaze down"

A "on the floor" bending her head to look down

P"not the head ,eyes"

A "how I m suppose to do that "

"Like this" priya showed her by lowering eyes

A "u mean I shud close my eyes"

P "no not close ur eyes"

Already with open eyes ash is a bundle of trouble , with closed Priya dreaded it might be doubled . But Ash had to be behaving all 'bridy bridy'

Pri "look at u r nose"

Ash confused "my nose!"

Pri "yup do it"

Ash did as told . Priya instructed her to do it through most part of the ceremony. AND Began trail towards the venue.

The tilak ceremony was performed, though Prithvi closest family wasn't present but it didn't mean that traditional rituals aren't to be followed. Though being composed on exterior, Prithvi ,the little less than calm was he inside. He was oppressing all thoughts telling him to give second thoughts about his decision. 'His majesty Someshwar chauhan ' has ordered Prithvi to go through this , one thing he knew beyond all logics and rationalities that he would never give second thought to his Grandfather's word , he (GRANDPA)wished this relationship to be established that made Prithvi's resolve to get into this marriage...marriage...when pigs will fly...The wedding not marriage that's too personal , so made his resolve iron clad to get through this 'wedding'.

He wished they would have opted for court marriage just sign the things and get out . But he knew that won't be an option , press will be dubious if the most eligible 'HIS HIGHNESS (yuvraj)' who has been the media magnate for most of his life ;given the fact of his family background or his lethal appeal to attract attention ; claming his bride the future 'HER HIGHNESS OF JAIGAD' without a grand celebration. It would raise many eyebrows, as to keep his family honor intact was his biggest priority , hence this lavish wedding setup was inevitable. That didn't mean he wasn't having thoughts to get going with the ceromony at supersonic speed , then fire his ferrari and head towards the castle. The castle was a smart choice ,it was isolated from the city as it was on the outskirts of the city, so no frenzy paparazzi will be hauling over to get view of his married life. Already restraining order against the press was issued to keep the wedding private, but he didn't trust the sleazy paparazzi . Gladly the bride side hasn't pushed for reception , he really doubted he could manage a facade with stranger on his side greeting the guests, not that he hadn't been able to pull that charade but seriously it had been a long day and he just seemed to get it over.

Who run the world? Girls Girls

Who run the world? Girls Girls

Who run the world? Girls Girls

Ash was humming the song along with swaying her body to the beat,snapping fingers ,moving her head .Soon they reached the stairs. PRIYA paused walk and looked at ash .

"Ready kiddo ,big day . make me proud. Don't mess up"

Priya looked into ash's eyes with nothing but love ,care in her eyes for her. After all the shenanigans Ash pulled over today and gave priya super hard time, it didn't affect the affection priya had for ash. Ash smiled at priya , she owed her this one among other billions things ;for wat priya did for ash , actually she didn't owed ,com'on u don't have to be indebted to people who u love and they love u . But this time Ash wasn't gonna let priya down. So reminder to self "" MUST BEHAVE"

Ash hugged Priya for moment seeping all warmth of love and care, then she broke the hug.

"Don't worry pri I'll put a good show"

Priya glanced at her perplexed due to the choice of her words.

Ash recognized pri's anxiety and corrected herself

" I mean good show in a good way"

Priya smiled at her ,again changed her expression at as a P T teacher instructing students for exercise.

Gaze down

Chin up

Don't slouch .

Ash "Aye aye captain"

Pri "Don't kid around"

Ash "Got it captain"

Priya gave a small laugh , she was gona miss this , she wondered how her day will be when she will b fired from the 'cleaning job' to clear Aisha's mess.Placing a hand on ash's back she guided her downstairs

Deepak approached Prithvi , giving him respect Prihvi touched his feet and Deepak was in awe seeing his down to earth behavior. He said "No No beta I m just a employee"

Prithvi "u cal me u r son and refrain the fact that I touched ur feet"

Deepak smiled with happy glint in his eyes he uttered

"Our Ash is really lucky"

"Ash "Karan parroted with a smirky smile and nudged Prithvi

Deepak replied"yes Ash our Aisha baby is indeed lucky to being married to such a nice groom"

Someone came in to call Deepak to clear doubts abt the wedding ceremony arrangements in the mandap , karan too accompanied him so have a view as everything is running smoothly.

The room fell in silence ,everyone's gaze directed in one direction,People were nodding in approval , talking among themselves. Certainly there was no need for someone to be rocket scientist to guess that the guest /person of honor must have arrived , Though the view was blocked by various guests ; but slowly the crowd spread making way for her to move forward. His gaze fell on her from bottom to top he surveyed her.Wat in the world. White!Didn't anyone gave her the memo that this is partial royal wedding though not at its optimum way , but ain't it is obvious that Indian royal wedding generally comprise of vivid colors; in which none of the portion whether be guest or location or theme ; colors plays a vital role. So he wud have been really gracious to be explained why on earth the person was dressed in colorless manner who is expected to dress with vibrancy of colors.

Though the attire was no where near normalcy ,but it wasn't displeasing at all. The way the white drape clung to her killer body. She was escorted by Priya as they came close and stepped inside the canopy and stood in front of Prithvi . Priya stood few inches away from Ash . Prithvi 's curious gaze was stuck on his to be wife.Seemed as if the world around him vanished and only was in the vicinity.She was undoubtedly gorgeous. The smooth satin skin with creamy complexion and the dark lush of the hair unraveling ,and flowing on the shoulder gave a heavenly contrast. The pink luscious lips were irresistible

Wonder wat color her eyes were. Since the arrival not even once her lashes rose to acknowledge him or even not a stolen glance was dispersed by her , ofcourse he knew that she might be shy and nervous. But one look won't have killed anyone!

Soon the rings were exchanged , , Priya carefully bestowed the ring in ash's hand and moved her hand to touch Prithvi's forwarded hand's finger .

Ash was engrossed in the song

I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake
Yeah, I was in the dark
I was falling hard
With an open heart
I'm wide awake

Priya covertly nudged ash to get her attention ,which woke ash up and she trailed herself to reality . Her lowered gaze fell on the hand , she slid in the ring on his finger. Priya held ash hand forward Prithvi slid in the ring.

The guests applauded on the culmination of ring ceremony, Priya escorted Ash out of the canopy , as they were moving away facing aback to him , a smirked formed on his face. He thought she wasn't that nervous or shy when she giving vague answers to him few minutes ago.

When Priya took her into the kitchen for refreshments ,sipping in the ice tea Ash blurted out "How much longer this crap is gonna continue"

Priya in comforting tone "don't worry its gonna be completed soon. U shud be glad that Ram uncle said yes to u r request for no reception"

Ash "Dad's way smart he knows my tolerance, he's not that stupid to push me hard else u know wat will I do?"

Priya closed her hands on ash's shoulder

"u did good till now. Now listen in wedding ceremony'..."

Priya explained the procedure to Ash abt the all the 'saat phere', that when her huddy will walk forward and when she will. In short in way ash cud understand.

The message was delivered that bride was called in for vermala (garland exchange).

In the mandap Prithvi put the garland in her neck. Aisha raised her eye lids to see the target where this flowery thing was suppose to be thrown.

Your stare was holdin',
Ripped jeans, skin was showin'
Hot night, wind was blowin'
Where you think you're going, baby?

Hey, I just met you,
And this is crazy,
But here's my number,
So call me, maybe?

Wat the hell with the song. Damn can't even change it now.

It's hard to look right,

At you baby,

But here's my number,

So call me, maybe?

And all the other boys,
Try to chase me,
But here's my number,
So call me, maybe?

Before you came into my life
I missed you so bad
I missed you so bad
I missed you so, so bad

Before you came into my life
I missed you so bad
And you should know that
I missed you so, so bad..

So call me, maybe?

Aisha slid the garland around his ,first time she looked at him , it was creepy with song running in background. Damn wat song timing!

Prithvi was wrong one look definitely was worth killing someone ,the mesmerizing eyes were more lethal bullets or arrows.

They then be sited on the in front of the holy fire and the marriage ceremony commenced. It went smoothly; priya did the gathbandhan (tied the knot), prithvi applied sindoor on her head actually just a hint of touch at the beginning of her forehead as there was no straight partition in her hair but side one was there . Then he tied a holy thread with black beads instead of conventional magalsutra of gold and black beads as it was a traditional way which his family followed. Soon the entire ceremony was done and they took the blessing of the elders.

Aisha as soon as the ceremony was done thinking of getting out of here and when they were greeted Ash just reciprocated with a smile, Soon as she got a chance she slipped from prithvi's side towards priya.

Priya took Ash to her room , priya went outside to attend the guest. In mean time aisha cleansed her face , she undid the thread around her neck and placed on the dressing table. Food was plated for but even being a super foodie her appetite was nil . She was thinking of changing the clothes. But Pri intervened by entering the room,and informing her that its time to leave and explained her car is waiting for her at the back exit of the mansion ,as to avoid the risk for paparazzi to barge in. Ash agreed coz she was too tired to argue, she grabbed her phone and said " F9 lets go".

Pri took her to the back exit , hugged her ,both avoided the tears

And she told Pri to call her & Aisha moved outside.
