Meera's P.O.V

The Wedding...

Its been a few weeks since the engagement. It was so funny as he didn't expect me to be that confident towards him but inside I was trembling but I knew I had to seem confident so he wouldn't step all over me. It was hilarious as his face was clearly shocked when we were dancing. Stupid! He thought I couldn't dance!, well I'm very talented, thank you very much! The thing is we both signed the paper so we both have no cancellations of the wedding.

But now I'm getting married. Like actually married to that arrogant idiot. I have to spend time with him in the same house. Ugh!

At the moment, it's five in the morning. Yes I know why am I up that early. Well, all the women in my family need to get me ready for the marriage ceremony. So it usually takes hours and hours. This is going to be so painful.

My mother is crying a river while my father, the heartless soul he is, has a straight face. And my brother I think is secretly crying but not showing he has watering eyes. Oh Sanjay!

Ow!, ow!, ow! My hair is getting pulled in different directions from different women as they try to do a simple braid. Come on! We only need one person to do my hair! But at the same time another bunch of women are scrambling to put on my make up. One putting on eyeliner, foundation, concealer, facial powder, eyeshadow, etc. Also my mother layering on gold jewellery on me which by the way is getting heavy, really heavy.

The groom doesn't have to go through this pain. But then again he doesn't really need anything to make him look any better. OMG! What am I saying. Forget I said that! Never happened! Nothing, zip it!

" Meera, are you ok, darling."

Mother in law is asking. Ugh...

" I am ok, umm... Just the many women torturing me righ-"

Great! I just got cut off by somebody putting lipstick and lipgloss on me. Why?! They probably did it on purpose as well.

" continue darling."

" never mind."

" are you sure."

" yep."

Thank God! She's finally gone.

2 hours later...

I'm finally done everything. Yes!! No more pain! Feel happy with me! But I'm getting married in another few hours. Mood officially damaged. Noooooo!

I see Karthika, yes! My sister in law. I'll talk to her, she went through this for an arranged marriage but not a contract though.

" Karthika! Please come here NOW!"

" coming bridezilla!"

"Hey! I'm NOT a bridezilla , I'm just a bit moody about this whole thing."

" keep telling yourself that."

I glare at her.

" ok, laser eyes, turn off those lasers don't want burn a hole through me, do you?"

Haha... So funny.

" I literally have no time for jokes so please I need to talk to you."

" fine, fine."

She comes over and sits across from me with a warm smile.
