Baraat finally aa chuki thi! Dhol baj raha tha, log nach rahe the, aur hawa mein ek ajeeb si excitement thi. Shaadi ka mahal chamak raha tha, har taraf lights aur phoolon ki sajawat thi.
[The air buzzed with excitement as the baraat finally arrived, the sound of dhols and laughter filling the night. Strings of fairy lights twinkled above, casting a golden glow over the decorated entrance.]
Kashvi entrance ke paas khadi thi, ek sundar pastel lehenga pehne, khushi ka mahaaul dekhte hue, uski khud ki bhn aur badi cousin sister dono ki shaadi thi aur woh usse zaada khush aur excited kabhi aur ho nhi sakti thi.
[Dressed in a pastel lehenga, Kashvi stood near the doorway, watching the joyous commotion with a smile. Her own sister and elder cousin sister, were getting married, and she couldn't be more happier.]
Kashvi Rajput [Pritisha's sister]
*Enters the room with Avyaan and Anamika*
Kashvi Rajput [Pritisha's sister]
Ohh Myy Gyaaa *Screams*
Anamika Thakur [Avyaan's wife]
K-Kiya hua Kashu?
[W-What happened, Kashu?]
Kashvi Rajput [Pritisha's sister]
Bhabhi, Dekho *Points towards Aarshvi*
[Sister-in-law, Look]
Aarshvi Thakur/ Chauhan [FL]
Kashvi Rajput [Pritisha's sister]
Aarshvi Didi kitni sundar lag rahi hai na iss shaadi ke lehenge me *Whispers excitedly*
[Aarshvi sister looks so beautiful in her bridal outfit!]
Anamika Thakur [Avyaan's wife]
Humari Arshi hai hi itni pyaari *Looks at her lovingly*
[Our Arshi is just that lovely]
Anamika Thakur [Avyaan's wife]
*Goes towards Aarshvi and pats her head*
Anamika Thakur [Avyaan's wife]
Kiya hua? Nervous ho?
[What happened? Are you Nervous?]
Aarshvi Thakur/ Chauhan [FL]
Bhabhi, woh-
[Sister-in-law, That-]
Avyaan Thakur [FL's elder step-brother]
Obviously! *Smirks*
Avyaan Thakur [FL's elder step-brother]
Ab nervousness toh hogi hi lekin humare dulhe raja ko
[There will be nervousness, but to our groom.]
Avyaan Thakur [FL's elder step-brother]
Ab akhir iss yoofan se jo shaadi kar raha hai
[After all, who is marrying this storm now]
Aarshvi Thakur/ Chauhan [FL]
Bhaii *Teary eyes*
[Brother]
Aarshvi Thakur/ Chauhan [FL]
Aap bahut bure hai
[You are very bad]
Anamika Thakur [Avyaan's wife]
Rula diya na usse *Slaps his shoulder lightly*
[Made her cry!]
Avyaan Thakur [FL's elder step-brother]
Accha..Accha..
[Fine..Fine..]
Avyaan Thakur [FL's elder step-brother]
*Goes towards her and hugs her tightly*
Aarshvi Thakur/ Chauhan [FL]
Bh-Bhaii *Started crying while hugging him back*
Avyaan Thakur [FL's elder step-brother]
Pata hai, A-Aaj agr mummy papa hote to tumhe aise dekh kar bahut khush hote *he said, his voice soft but steady*
[You know, if Mother and father were here today, they would have been the happiest to see you like this.]
Archana Rajput [FL's Aunt]
They would have pampered you endlessly, beti. Tumhare papa toh khud tumhare shaadi ke jewelry choose karne par zidd karte, aur tumhari mummy... oh, woh toh yeh ensure karti ki tum sirf rote hi na raho, balki kuch khane ko bhi lo. *Said while entering the room*
[They would have pampered you endlessly, daughter. Your Father would have insisted on choosing your wedding jewelry himself, and your Mother... oh, she would have made sure you ate something instead of just crying all day.]
Aarshvi Thakur/ Chauhan [FL]
*Let out a small laugh, sniffing*
Avyaan Thakur [FL's elder step-brother]
Tum sundar...lag rahi ho *Said while kissing her head*
[You look... beautiful]
Aarshvi Thakur/ Chauhan [FL]
Bhaiya… *whispers*
[Brother]
Avyaan Thakur [FL's elder step-brother]
*Pulled her into a tight embrace*
Mahesh Rajput [FL's Uncle]
Ab yahan bhi rona dhona ho raha hai? *Said while coming from hallway*
[This crying drama is happening here also]
Mahesh Rajput [FL's Uncle]
Meri chhoti gudiya itni badi kab ho gayi? *Said while Patting her head*
[When did My little princess become so big?]
Kashvi Rajput [Pritisha's sister]
Jabse aap buddhe hue hai
[When you became an oldie]
Aarshvi Thakur/ Chauhan [FL]
*Chuckles lightly*
Kashvi Rajput [Pritisha's sister]
Finally, Aap muskuraye toh, Aarshu didi
[Finally, You laugh..Aarshu sister]
Anamika Thakur [Avyaan's wife]
Aarshu *Hugs her tightly*
A warm, nostalgic silence filled the room.
Mahesh Rajput [FL's Uncle]
Par tumhe pata hai kya?Woh yahin hain. Hamari hansi mein, hamari aansuon mein, jis tarah hum ek doosre se pyaar karte hain. Aur tumhare mummy papa tumhe dekh rahe hain, proud se aur khushi se. *Said with voice full of warmth*
[But you know what?They are here. In our laughter, in our tears, in the way we love each other. And you parents are watching over you, proud and happy.]
Aarshvi Thakur/ Chauhan [FL]
*Nodded, her heart full*
Aarshvi ke uncle, jo hamesha ek silent guardian the, unhone apni bhatiji ke sar par haath rakha aur chupchaap ashirwad diya. Unki aunt, jinhone use aur uske bade bhai ko ek doosri maa ki tarah pala tha, apni aankhon se behte aansuon ko rok nahi pai jab unhone Aarshvi ka chehra apne haathon mein thaam liya.
[Aarshvi's uncle, who had always been the silent guardian, placed a hand on his niece's head, blessing her quietly. Her aunt, who had raised her and her elder brother like a second mother, couldn't stop her own tears from spilling as she cupped her face.]
Aarshvi Thakur/ Chauhan [FL]
*looked around at her family—her brother, her cousin, her uncle and aunt, her bhabhi and realized something*
Aarshvi Thakur/ Chauhan [FL]
Main shayad ek naye ghar ja rahi hoon, par main kabhi akeli nahi rahungi. Kyunki tum sab mere saath ho, hamesha. *She whispers*
[I may be going to a new home, but I will never be alone. Because I have you all with me, always.]
Avyaan Thakur [FL's elder step-brother]
*Smiled, pulling her into another embrace* That’s my little sister *murmured*
The room was filled with a deep silence—one of love, of separation, of unspoken promises.
Kashvi Rajput [Pritisha's sister]
Bas ab rona band! Dulhan ki makeup kharab ho jaayega!
[Now, No more crying!The bride’s makeup will get ruined!]
A small chuckle broke through the tears,And just like that, the bittersweet sorrow turned into something beautiful—an unbreakable bond, strengthened by love, memories, and the presence of those who lived on in their hearts.
Archana Rajput [FL's Aunt]
*Enters the room* Hogyi meri beti taiyaar
[Is my daughter ready?]
Pritisha Rajput [FL's cousin]
*Sitting in front of the mirror in her bridal lehenga (attire)*
Pritisha Rajput [FL's cousin]
Pritisha Rajput [FL's cousin]

Archana Rajput [FL's Aunt]

Mahesh Rajput [FL's Uncle]

[Afterall, Who's daughter she is]
Pritisha Rajput [FL's cousin]

Mahesh Rajput [FL's Uncle]

[Today is a very important day for you...I know you must be nervous but trust me I-]
Pritisha Rajput [FL's cousin]

Pritisha Rajput [FL's cousin]
P-Papa
[D-Dad]
Pritisha Rajput [FL's cousin]
Please, Cancel this wedding
Archana Rajput [FL's Aunt]
Pritisha, Phir wahi baat
[Pritisha, Again that talk]
Archana Rajput [FL's Aunt]
*Cups her cheeks* I-
Pritisha Rajput [FL's cousin]
Maine bola na....Mujhe SHAADI NAHI KARNI! *Screams loudly with anger while jerking her hands away*
[I told you....I am NOT getting married!]
Mahesh Rajput [FL's Uncle]
Pritisha, Behave
Archana Rajput [FL's Aunt]
Pritisha, Meri bacchi abhi nahi..ye tumhari shaadi ka din hai..bahar bahut relatives aur tumhare baaki cousins tumhare wait kar rahe hai tumse mile ke liye
[Pritisha, not now. This is you wedding day..Outside you other cousins and relatives are waiting to meet you]
Pritisha Rajput [FL's cousin]
*Firm voice* Mujhe koi farak nahi padta! Aur main abhi dobara bata rahi hoon—main ye shaadi nahi kar rahi hoon! *Clenches fist*
[I don't care! and I'm telling you again right now—I'm not doing this marriage!]
Mahesh Rajput [FL's Uncle]
Beta, hum tum par koi zabardasti nahi kar rahe, par tumhe apne future ke baare mein sochna padega.
Tumhari cousin bhi khush hoke shaadi kar rahi hai
[Child, we’re not forcing you, but you have to think about your future. Your younger cousin is also getting married happily]
Pritisha Rajput [FL's cousin]
Ohh yes, Aarshvi ki shaadi bhi toh hai..Woh to khush hogi hi..Woh jo-
[Ohh yess, Aarshvi is too getting married, She must be happy, She-]
Archana Rajput [FL's Aunt]
Chup!! *Said while grabbing her shoulders*
[Shut up!!]
Archana bit her lip, exchanging quick glances with Mahesh,the tension in air was thick.
Archana Rajput [FL's Aunt]
Please, yaha par abhi koi scene create maat karo.
[Please, don’t create a scene.]
Mahesh Rajput [FL's Uncle]
*Sighs* Beta, hum tujhe force nahi kar rahe, par tu apne future ke baare mein soch—
[Daughter, We are not forcing you on anything but think about you future-]
Pritisha Rajput [FL's cousin]

Pritisha Rajput [FL's cousin]
Iss shaadi ko karke waise br mera koi future nahi hoga...Dad please samjhe...Meri life baarbad hojayegi
[My future will still get ruined by doing this marriage...Dad, Please understand..My life will get ruined]
Pritisha Rajput [FL's cousin]
Aap dono kiyu kar raho ho ye? *Teary eyes*
[Why are you both doing this?]
Mahesh Rajput [FL's Uncle]
*Sighs* Archana, Taiyaar rakho isse..Thodi der me Panditji bola te hi hoge
[Archana, Get her ready..In few minutes Panditji will call for her]
Archana Rajput [FL's Aunt]
*Nods*
Mahesh Rajput [FL's Uncle]

Archana Rajput [FL's Aunt]
Chup Chap se taiyaar hokar yaha baith jaao..Aur kuch maat karna
[Quietly, Be ready and sit down..Don't do anything else.]
Pritisha Rajput [FL's cousin]
I hate you Mom *Whispers*
Hall chamak raha tha, mandap ke aaspaas gulab aur marigold ki khushbu phail rahi thi. Mehmaan apni resham aur zari waali alag-alag dresses mein saj-dhaj kar baithe the, excitement ke saath.
[The wedding hall shimmered under the golden glow of chandeliers, the air thick with the scent of fresh marigolds and incense. The guests, dressed in vibrant silks and shimmering jewelry, murmured in excitement as the time for the wedding rituals arrived.]
Panditji ne havan kund ke paas baithte hue kaha, “Dulhan ko bulao mandap par!”
[The Panditji, adjusting his sacred cloth, called out, "Bring the brides to the mandap!"]
And now there's comes the moment, which everyone has been waiting for when both the brides entered the hall..
Dono cousin behne, Pritisha aur Aarshvi taiyaar ab apne-apne baade din ke liye apne shaadi ke lehenge mein both in red, mandap ki taraf aayi. Unke chehre ghoonghat ke peeche chhupe the. Dono apne-apne dulhon ke saamne baith gayi—Aarshvi thodi nervous, par composed thi aur Pritisha ke chehre par koi emotion ka naam tak nhi tha.
[The two cousin sisters, Pritisha and Aarshvi ready for their big day draped in elaborate lehengas—both in red,—stepped forward, their faces hidden beneath veils. They took their seats across from their respective grooms, who sat tall, Aarshvi a little nervous, but composed while Pritisha sat their emotionless.]
Mantron ki gungunahat shuru ho gayi, havan ki fire dheere-dheere baad rahi thi. Sab kuch perfect lag raha tha—par phir Pritisha achanak se uth gyi.
[The mantras began, the fire crackled, and just as the sacred chants filled the air, Pritisha suddenly stood up.]
Hawaa mein sans lene tak ki awaaz sunai dene lagi. Mehmaan ekdum shocked. Sari shaadi ki shaanti ek pal mein tooti.Pritisha ne apna ghoonghat hataya, uski aankhon mein ek ajeeb si mila-jula jazba tha—dard, chahat aur zid.
[Gasps echoed through the hall. The rustling of silk and whispers spread like wildfire as Pritisha lifted her veil, revealing eyes brimming with emotion—pain, longing, defiance.]
Archana Rajput [FL's Aunt]
*Goes towards her quickly* Beta, Tum aise kiyu uth gyi..Aaram se baith jaao *Said while looking around smiling*
[Daughter, Why did you stand like this? Sit down.]
Pritisha Rajput [FL's cousin]
*Goes towards Tarun* Mujhe isse shaadi nahi karni *Her voice trembled but held firm.* Main tumse shaadi karna chahti hoon!
[I don’t want to marry him, I want to marry you!]
Aarshvi Thakur/ Chauhan [FL]
*Eyes widened in sheer disbelief*
Aarshvi Thakur/ Chauhan [FL]
*Hands Started trembling in her lap*
Tarun Roy [FL's Ex- fiancee]
*Sitting beside Aarshvi emotionlessly*
Aarshvi Thakur/ Chauhan [FL]
*Look towards Tarun then towards Pritisha*
