“The Mehendi Ceremony”
The countdown had truly begun.

---

Scene: Sinha House — Early Morning Buzz

The Sinha house was transformed into a royal garden fantasy.
Lily drapes, fairy lights twinkling like dreams, and the scent of fresh henna in the air. Cousins, friends, aunties — all running around with flower baskets and jewelry trays.

Inside her room, Gunjan Sinha sat at her vanity, the mirror reflecting a vision that felt straight out of a dream.

A magenta lehenga, embroidered with zardozi, sheer net sleeves dusted with sequins, and tiny bells at the waist. She looked…

Mrs. Sinha (teary-eyed): “Like a princess from my prayers.”

Scene: Entrance of Raj Verma — With His Squad

And then came the groom-to-be.

Raj entered in a pastel pink kurta with ivory churidar, looking devastatingly handsome. His jacket had subtle floral threadwork that twin-matched Gunjan’s lehenga. The guests turned, whispers rose, and the teasing began.

Mayur (to the crowd):
"If anyone finds ‘Gunjan’ in his mehendi today, dinner’s on Raj!”

Raj: “If I don’t, I’ll faint. That’s worse.”

Gunjan (overhearing, smirking): “Start practicing your fall then.”

---

Scene: The Mehendi Moment

Gunjan sat under a canopy of yellow roses, mehendi being drawn intricately up to her elbows. The artist whispered:

“Where should I hide Raj’s name, ma’am?”
Gunjan grinned: “Make him work for it.”

Meanwhile, Raj had mehendi too — his palms open, eyes scanning the design like a CSI detective. Gunjan sneakily waved from across, fingers still wet, mouthing: “Not so easy, Sherlock.”

The aunts giggled. Cousins cheered.
And then — music filled the garden.

---

Scene: Dancing, Dhol & Love

The dhol picked up rhythm, and Nayan pulled Gunjan to the center. Soon, both families were grooving — Mayur’s bhangra moves, Dhruv’s failed twirls, and Gunjan & Raj eventually swaying together like the world disappeared.

Gunjan (whispering while dancing):
"Have you found your name yet?"

Raj (pulling her closer):
"No. But I’ve found my world."

They both giggled, eyes locked like an unbreakable spell.

---

Scene: Golden Hour – Just Them

Later, Raj stole a moment, pulling Gunjan away to a quieter corner of the garden.

Raj: “One mehendi down, a lifetime to go.”
Gunjan: “As long as you're searching for me — I’ll always be hiding… but right beside you.”

She raised her hand. He found the “R” tucked under a floral swirl.
He kissed it gently.

Gunjan (teasing): “Aree now you’ll faint with excitement?”
Raj (grinning): “Maybe. Or I’ll just fall for you again.”

Scene Ends: A Message from the Host

Later that evening, Mrs. Sinha took the mic.

Mrs. Sinha:
"Today we put mehendi on her hands…
But it’s the color of love we see on both their faces.
One ritual down — now onto the madness of haldi, sangeet, shaadi, and beyond!"

---

Gunjan and Raj looked at each other.
Hands dyed. Hearts full.
The chaos was real.
But so was the love.

(End of Chp 29)
