YOURS

chapter 4

Anjali POV

Oh my god ! Today is my wedding , i am soo excited , my Raja will take me away from my parents today

That day I remember distinctly

How he had asked for my hand in a Raja patented arrogant way

He never propose me , huh I wished he would propose me going down on one knees

All dreams

I remember , he had took me out for dinner 2 months before and all he had said was

"marry me Rani , you are mine anyways" and had produced the ring

and i was seated there all confused 

I did not even think of marriage at that time I am just 21 , who wants to get married at 21 right?

But my Raja never listened to me

I want to be a fashion designer , I am sure he will support my dreams after marriage 

I am dressed in a red Lehenga choli , with lots of golden work , just like Raja wanted

I  am waiting for my mother, to take me to the mandap(marriage place)

Yesterday my mom cried soo much, as she thinks she will be alone , my father died 5 years ago , but Raja was always there with me , he was my support

I remember I cried in front of him , thinking I am all alone now 

"How can you be alone Rani , when you have me"

My bedroom door opened and in walked my mother , fully dressed in heavy saree

"Ready my doll?" my mom asked me with wet eyes

while i just nodded shyly

Though I and Raja have known each other since forever , still he never touched me I remember fighting with him over it

"Dont you love me Raja ? Why have you never kissed me ?"

"You know Rani how much you mean to me , you are my wish Rani"

"Then why dont you kiss me ?"

"I am waiting Rani for you to be completely mine , then no one will save you from me" he had said winking at me

and i had blushed , like a little girl

"Stop dreaming Anjali , Raja is waiting on the mandap" my mom said patting my back to make me come back to present

she smiled at me , shaking her head

She took me to the mandap where my Raja was sitting dressed in a suite , which i picked for him, it was a grey suit with lines and a red tie , he was looking very handsome , with his little prickly beard and black eyes which was gazing at me with love

***
Yes!

Finally we were married my Raja was holding my hand the whole time , not that I was complaining

"Hey Anju , congrats" lucky came and congratulated us , and as always Rajas hold tightened on my hand

"Thanks lucky" i said with a polite smile

I do not want to irk Raja now

Lucky is one of my good friends , yes only good friend as Raja is my best friend

"You are looking beautiful Anju" lucky said looking at me with longing

I remember him proposing to me 3 years ago and i had to tell him no , and thank god Raja doesnt know about this or he would have Killed lucky
