complicated marriage - Chapter 29
Reaching at the hall we found all the preparation were under the contol of Zen the Great…..
He took care of all the preparation and even checked the delivered dresses. He was pretty responsible along with that he was a little aloof too. Maybe that was the reason I wasn’t ready to marry him. Maybe we were not a match made in heaven. We were having the relationship similar to that of north pole and south pole. Though they are opposite poles of a magnet but can be together. They need other magnets south or north pole to attract. Would I be able to bare the pain? Would I be able to accept the truth….?
Hoping for the best, I went to met Gracily. Gracily was sitting on the black wooden chair with white beautifully embroidered silk backless gown. High neck point with striped frills at the end of the sleeves. Beautifully carved design to match with the image of feelingless God… Who was no more feelingless. She was mesmerizing. Maybe after seeing Gracily UD won’t be able to wait to marry her. Hope for them to be together forever. [^ __^]
I helped Gracily with some make up and jellewery. After completing everything, after double checking the arrangements, Adi took me for lunch. After lunch he dropped me to my home. All that time he didn’t fought with me. He listened each and everything. He was so well behaved that he looked like a small cute puppy. My sweet Adi puppy.
We reached my home. I got off the car. Coming out he said “Yuki…I want to tell you something….”
He sounds so serious! He was so serious that I couldn’t even describe it… It was my first time seeing him so serious.
He said he wanted to tell me something so eagerly. He want to say something very important that he never told anybody in his whole life.
I was freaking out due to that. I mean what the he’ll was so important for Adi…. What was so important that he wanted to tell me so eagerly?
He said he like… And he again said he like…
He likes what?
He again said he like….
Suddenly mom shouted, “Yuki, your mother in law would pick you up at 16:00….”
I told him to hurry up because I wanted to get ready for engagement ceremony on time. He said it was nothing and left away….
Doesn’t this sounds like a typical Indian drama where hero was going to say something important and intruders interrupted their beautiful conversation….
Similar was with me. Adi was going to say he like… But he left it half way because of mom. Maybe he realized that I was already committed but now what can I explain to him that for my selfishness I agreed for marriage… I was really sorry for Adi. Hope he would be able to forgive me. Hope he could find someone better…
I got ready and mother in law picked me up. I couldn’t see Zen with my mother in law. So I inquired, she replied to me that my husband to be is already at ceremony waiting for us. She told me that their would be media people who would interview us. I have testify that I was his ex girlfriend. Well my mother in law was sweet but when it comes to business she won’t compromise over a single mistake so I had lot of pressure over my head.
We reached at the engagement ceremony and I found out that it was UD’s engagement hall. I asked mom are we visiting UD and Gracily’s engagement ceremony. She replied positively. I was so delighted by her answer. She asked me if I knew them. Obviously I replied positively and added that I was Gracily’s bestie. Well now you all be thinking how my mother in law knew Gracily and UD…. Right? So let me tell you….
I was on the ninth cloud flying from happiness but a sudden realisation strike me hard on the ground. If my mother in law would announce that I am her daughter in law in UD’s engagement wouldn’t it create problems for me. First thing UD would know about my selfishness though I don’t have like him or have any that kind of feelings in my heart. But I don’t want to him and Gracily to see my selfishness. Secondly what if Zen wouldn’t understand my reasons and refuse to marry me. Well it’s okay if he refuses but he would insult me in front of all those people.
Ahhhh! My life where was it going…. ( > _ < )
We went inside the hall mother in law was busy with some of her business guest so I went to meet Gracily. Gracily and UD were busy in their pre – engagement photo shoot. I watched them from behind their pair was really like a dream. The perfect pair with perfect proportion of live and lime….
Wish I could have such pair but not possible?… Was it possible….
Watching such a sweet pair I thought of a poetry….
”
Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now,
Thus much let me avow-
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream;
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.
I stand amid the roar
Of a surf-tormented shore,
And I hold within my hand
Grains of the golden sand-
How few! yet how they creep
Through my fingers to the deep,
While I weep- while I weep!
O God! can I not grasp
Them with a tighter clasp?
O God! can I not save
One from the pitiless wave?
Is all that we see or seem
But a dream within a dream?
”
I went to washroom and freshened up.. On my way back I saw Adi fighting with some one. The door was locked from inside so I couldn’t see the faces but I knew one of them was Adi. Adi was shouting for some proposal maybe the one with Adi was his mom…. She wanted Adi to marry for some business deal. I couldn’t get much of their shouting in all those DJ noises but I could make out that they were fighting over something…..
On reaching the main hall I saw mother in law was going to announce Zen’s Future Wife….
Oh my lord! please help me save me from this big trouble…..
Mother in law said, ” Upcoming generations of our big family My dear son Zen’s Future wife is….”
What do you think who would be Zen’s wife… Yuki right?…
