Panditji chanted sacred mantras while Vikram sat beside Jannvi,their parents seated around them in reverent silence.

After nearly an hour,the puja rituals were finally completed.

Kabeer and Angad escorted him to the stage where the jaimala,he garland exchange ceremony,was to take place.

Vikram took his seat,his heart restless and his eyes searching the entrance, desperately waiting for the moment his beautiful bride would appear.

On the other side,the guests settled into the beautifully arranged sofas in the hall, all facing the stage.Beside the jaimala mandap stood a larger stage for music, and in front of it,a spacious dance floor had been prepared.

A few children were already dancing and running across it,their laughter echoing through the hall.

Everyone was waiting now....

waiting for the bride to arrive.

After getting inside paarthvi and Shaila started searching their grandparents.

They were lost somewhere.After searching for a while they got them talking to some old people.(ofcourse too old for them)

Asha waved at paarthvi and asked her to come there.

Paarthvi said, "ji daadimaa (Daadi maa means grandma)"

Grandma replied, "Paarthvi beta meet my best friend Sharda and her husband Rajnathji."

Paarthvi bent down and touched their feet and said Namaste.(Her parents moved from there long time ago so she don't know their language)

Sharda and Rajnath put their hands on her head and give their blessings to her.Sharda told paarthvi that she is really beautiful.

Soon the entry of the bride started and evryone started hooting and clapping..

Slow music started playing and she slowly started walking to the aisle.

Her brothers were holding a wooden structure which was filled with blanket of flowers (i don't know wht it is called)and she was walking inside that.She was looking like a princess.Vikram was overwhelmed after watching this beautiful scene he was on the verge of crying.

Suddenly Kabeer came and give his handkerchief to him and said, "bhai apki vidaai nahi hogi chinta mat karo hum bhabhi ko leke hi jayege and he clicked his picture like that...."

(brother don't worry you not gonna stay here with your in-law's, we gonna take our Sis-in-law with us)

Vikram ignored him,too lost in admiring his beautiful wife.

Suddenly,Kabeer felt a strange chill crawl down his spine.He shivered and slowly looked around.

Behind him stood Ranvijay his eyes burning,shooting daggers straight into Kabeer’s back.

Kabeer quickly ran away murmuring something.

Soon bride reached to the stage and Vikram stand up and give his hand to his beautiful bride.They exchanged their garlands and evryone started cheering for them.

A loud music started and Kabeer and Angad started grooving along with their friends. One by one people started coming on the stage to bless the couple and gave  them gifts.

All of a sudden Asha realised that she left the gift on the car.She called Paarthvi and Shaila to bring the gift from the car both of them got up and started walking towards the parking area.

On the other hand Ranvijay was checking out evrything and greeting VIP his guests.He was working continuously since the morning.He desperately needed a drink or a cigarette.

[Guys I really don't like or appreciate drinking or smoking.I find it really annoying when someone smoke around me.And i dont support such activities so if u do that then you should stop it's really bad for your health.I lost my maternal uncle my grandfather just bcz of their drinking habit so I really dislike.I know it's useless to tell people what they should do or not bcz they gonna do whtevrr they like still i somehow feel responsible and I should do what is needed now back to the story]

After greeting guests he went in the parking area(it was a temporarily built parking area near the ground,right side of the hotel as that day there were many cars so parking lot was full).

Paarthvi was heading towards the doorway of the hotel while Shaila was throwing tantrums as she didn't want to wear that duppata (scarf).It was annoying her and the lehanga was too heavy for her to walk properly.She was walking like she is walking on the fire.Shaila told her that she can't walk and she will just sit there with her grandparents.

Paarthvi nodded and asked her to sit there and shetold her that she will just go out and bring the gift.

Paarthvi was walking towards the place where they had parked the car.

Few minutes later she reached there but there were lots of cars so she went inside and tap the car Key,she heard the clicking sound from the car.She turned towards her car n started walking in that direction.

While she was walking she saw a tall man standing there.Only his back was visible he was looking good by the appearance.As the lights of that area was too dull so she couldn't see his face clearly when  he turned and lit his cigarette.

(As I didn't find any suitable picture even after searching for one hour so I made this...now back to the stoty)

She wondered what kind of man he was standing alone in the dark,smoking like that.Something about him felt off.He seemed Dangerous.The kind of presence that carried bad vibes without saying a word.

Lost in those thoughts,she didn’t even realize she had reached her car.She unlocked it and got inside to pick up the gift,just as his grandmother had told her.But when she checked the back seat…

it wasn’t there.

She figured the gift must be in the boot.Stepping out of the car,she shut the door behind her without thinking.She took one step forward and stopped. Something held her back.

Her dupatta was caught in the car door.She turned, frowning,and tried to pull it free.It wouldn’t budge.The fabric only tightened in her grip.With a small,nervous sigh,she reached for the handle to open the door again.

It didn’t open.

Her heart skipped.She tried once more.Still locked.

That’s when it hit her.In her hurry,she had left the keys inside the car.And her mobile too.

The night suddenly felt colder and Quieter.And much more dangerous than before.

Poor kid.....

She was panicking and looking here n there for help.As she was looking around her eyes fell on that corner where that man was standing.He was smoking and yelling at someone on the phone.

"He must be really angry on that person",she thought in her mind while observing him from the distance.

After struggling for few good minutes in that position and finding herself in a bad situation she gathered all her courage and called him out.

Paarthvi looked at him while pleading eyes which he can't see from that distance, "Excuse me........."

(She said it with a very low sound bcz it was kind of dark there n no one was around there)

He didn't move at all and kept yelling on call.

She waited few sec and this time a lil louder , " Exuse me....."and she added

"Could you please help me out."

He noticed someone speaking behind him.He didn’t move at first,but this time he paid attention.

Just as he was about to turn around,he heard something and whatever it was,it only made his anger burn hotter.

(This time she almost shouted according to her but it was barely audible to him)

"Oh god may be he doesn't know English I think I should speak in Hindi" she said to herself.

She said, "Suniye kya ap meri help kar sakte hai."

She was about to say more when he turned to her,his voice cutting through her words.What he said made her heart sink.

Ranvijay replied coldly,
“I’m not interested in helping.”

He spoke in a cold, detached voice.After saying that,he turned away with a faint smirk and began to walk off.

Then he stopped.Without looking back, he added something else.

Something that made the moment even heavier.

He said, "I don't know Hindi as well as English."

She was feeling really humiliated that how can a man do this.How can someone say no in that kind of a situation....

No ...

No .....

No ....

How could he walk away like that?How could he refuse to help so shamelessly?

Can’t he see I’m in urgent need of help?

I know he saw my dupatta stuck in the car door.

Oh God…...

What am I supposed to do now?

Should I ask him again since i cnt see anyone else here or I think no one will come here for next one or two hours I guess..

(She almost forget that she isn't thinking in her mind lol she was shouting these words)

“Excuse me… I didn’t mean to be rude,”she said softly. “I just need your help.My car keys are locked inside, and my dupatta is stuck in the door.Could you please help me?”

She spoke in a calm, composed tone,even though panic was rising inside her.

That's it for today.
