I'll always remember us

27. Shivani

"Kitne lehenge reject karogi??"
My brother shouts at me as try the 7th lehenga of the day.

(How many lehengas will you reject?)

"Why do you care?, I want it to be perfect, I want to look PERFECT"

I scream from inside the trial room struggling to get the blouse open.

"I thought you didn't want to get married?, want to look perfect!!"
He says mocking me as I come out of the trial room.

"I don't but if I am doing it, I might as well just look like a goddess"

There wasn't one lehenga I liked, they were all either too sparkly or too dull.
The one's I like were not red, they were pink, green and even blue.

I think a bride's lehenge should be red.
Red make one look like a bride, no other color can replace.

"I sent advit 8 photos in total, and he rejected them too, you two are definitely soulmates"

"First, we are not!,
Second, I appreciate his choice as long as it's the same as me
Third, if he rejects the one I like, I'll kill him"

Shivaansh just rolled his eyes at my words
He muttered 'hate him much' under his breath.
He was right!
I do.

Radhika and ava were also helping me select  some lehengas and even searching pinterest for some options.
I would have liked my lehenga custom made but since 'my mother' didn't give me enough time, that wasn't possible.

The only one who was not helping me was my mother, I was annoyed.

"We have already toured 4 fucking shops , can you please select one?"
Shivaansh yelled as he got a video call from advit.

"tu hi bata, tumhe hi jhelna hai, I am going"
He added while he turned the camera towards me.

(You convince her, you have to live with her, I am going..)

"Let her buy whatever she wants shivaansh, teri shaadi nhi hai"
he shouted at him.

(Let her buy whatever she wants, it's not your wedding)

"At least come here and help us, i am dying"
Shivaansh took the phone outside to have a conversation with him, I don't know about what.

"Do you want to get this one?"
Ava called me from the back.

"No i alreday tried it, doesn't look good"

......

At home

I was chatting with my cousins and friends in my room as we hear the doorbell ring.

I get up to see who it is.

It was a lady with a big packet in her hand, looked like it had a huge dress in it.

"Hi, how can I help you?"
I asked her with a smile as my cousins joke about something in the back.

"Hi ma'am, this is from Mr Advit Singh Rana, he wanted me to deliver this to you, he also told me to tell you it's from his mom"

She said as she handed me the big dress type thing covered with a big black cover, laminated with plastic on top.

All my cousins and radhika rush to my side, curious about what he had sent me.

"Don't make a chaos, it's heavy"
I say while shivaansh helps me take it inside, and keep it on the bed.

"What is it?"
Everyone asks me.

I open the laminated cover, only to see it wrapped in some kind of white cloth to protect it.
