This is the first time, I am composing. Please forget the errors.
Seerat escaped from the wedding leaving us in the storm which was waiting for us to come out of the room. My mother told me to sit covering my face with a veil so that none can see me. And later is the history which is hard to digest and leaves a sour and bitter taste in my mouth.
That day, I might have married the richest man in Ludhiana. But for me, he was my enemy I hate him. I still remember the words he whispers " I will destroy you ". My heart feels heavy and my mind is traumatised by the event. They insulted me and my family and I can't even shade a tear!
Chachi ji asked me to get ready for the reception, and she pleaded with me to put on a fake smile on my lips and hides those wounds which will never heal. Suddenly the door opened making me alert to this dark storeroom that's the only place where I feel safe and loved.
"What are you doing here ?", I asked.
The dark figure emerged from the shadow and looked at me with those intense and fiery eyes.
"You were supposed to be ready, Miss Sahiba Kaur Monga, oh! I forgot it's Mrs Angad Singh Brar. Look, if you don't want me to show you the place. You better get ready and yes, why don't you wear that jewellery. Now you don't want to wear those for which your whole family had done with deception ?" he said coming towards me.
What if I said no? AND WHO TOLD YOU I M Mrs Angad Singh Bear? She let out her voice echoes in the room.
"Did you forget that we are married? Well, you can assume anything but the truth is that I will tell you what exactly feels like a Rich. Now stop acting like a sati savitri and that was it. I don't have time to waste with you " He said in a low but could see the roughness.
"You are no one to tell me. You can't dictate my life, my dreams and everything. You can't be my husband and I would never accept you. No matter how much you force me and humiliate me. I won't be yours ever and ever", she yelled as his hand now tightened around her wrist causing her pain. She yanked the hand and looked into his eyes.
"What are you two doing? Says the aunt. "Angad go from here. "Guest is coming and I will bring her". she hugs the poor girl who is about to cry and standing like a lifeless statue with a pale face. She closed the door, and Sahiba kneel letting her moist eyes finally flow.
"Sahiba stops crying, it won't mend anything. Dear, I know you are innocent. But if you will lose hope how will you survive here? I know Manveer par jai and Angad won't accept you, today. You are the oldest bahu, you have to be responsible. one day the sky will be clear and it will shine just like this store room which you converted with colours and love. Have some strength, dear. All will be okay. "
"Why am I m to blame aunty? I swear to Babaji, I never wanted to marry. My family is destroyed by one action. Seerat di is gone but what about me? I have to listen to her taunts and insults, forever. This heavy jewellery and Saree look burdensome to me. I want to go home and want to care for my parents and my sister", she sobbed telling.
After a few mins, she was decked with the rich Saree and jewellery. Chachi comes up with gatbandhan putting in her shoulder.
Do not lose this Gath Bandhan. This is now your life which is connected with him. She nodded holding half of the gatbandhan in her hands.
She enters the temple where her grandparents have asked them to take the blessings of Babaji.
She walks towards the Babaji is placed, all eyes are watching her but she could feel none except one whose eyes are now soft and he took his hand over mine for the blessing. The gatbandhan is being tied, letting the world knows that I m now married and He is my husband.
