Hide the marriage?

Daksh and Anvita sat across from each other in the hotel room, the faint remnants of panic still lingering.
The reality of what had happened was beginning to settle in—the vermillion on Anvita’s forehead, the nuptial chain around her neck, and the undeniable fact that they had married each other.

*Running a hand through his hair, his voice low* “This is... insane. I mean, how did this even happen? We don’t remember anything.”

*Whispering, voice barely audible* “We’re married, Daksh. M-a-r-r-i-e-d.”
Her words hung in the air, as though saying it made it even more real.
Daksh met her eyes, his own mind racing.

*Exhaling sharply* “Okay, okay. Let’s think. We can’t undo what happened... but we don’t have to tell anyone. Right?”
Anvita's eyes widened slightly. She bit her lip, trying to process what he was suggesting.

"If we tell them now, they’ll freak out. Our parents will ask a thousand questions, and we don’t have answers.”

*Frowned, mind swimming in a mix of emotions*
The thought of her family’s reaction made her stomach twist.
She could almost hear her mother’s voice in her head, asking her how she could get married without telling anyone.

*Softly* “But... what if they find out? I mean, how long can we keep this a secret?”

*Determined* “We’ve been best friends for years, Anvita. If we can manage a business together, we can manage this."

"It’s just a year, maybe less. We’ll figure out a way to... handle it.”

*Heart raced considering his plan*
It felt risky, but at the same time, she knew Daksh was right.
Telling their families now would open a floodgate of drama they weren’t prepared for.

*Nodding firmly* “For now.”
They exchanged a look—half disbelief, half resignation.
It was a secret neither of them wanted, but one they had no choice but to bear.
