It was almost morning by the time the rituals got over. I decided to look through my book instead of wasting my time. I opened the book and reached the wonderland. This time it was drizzling when I reached. Both were in front of the main door, standing opposite to each other. Her eye looked through his while his eyes looked through her. Both were staring at each other. The eye lock under the droplets of water was so pleasing to see. Both the strangers come friends were enjoying their time all alone in that atmosphere. The only thing missing was the background movies like in Hindi films. She looked away after a few droplets fell on her body. She was totally awakened by the drops. She moved away but the dogs and cats in the sky increased. He was still busy lost in her. She was aware other surroundings always but this time her eyes missed something or might be someone. It was not me alone watching them secretly but it was his mother witnessing them from the window of her room. Are...

Soon all the rituals were done and we descended the stage and took blessings from the entire group of elders from bade papa to mamasa. One after the other we touched their feet and took aashirwad. Then panditji told us to proceed to the next ritual. We were taken to a room and were told to sit beside each other, me on his left side. Ma sa told us to plan whatever we need in life or so in this given time. Ma also told us to be careful and plan everything consciously. All of them left us alone in this room and Bhago and Chakri in the other room. Even though we had lots to talk but we couldn’t talk anything or it could be rightly put as we did not know where to start from. Ajab, Hmm Are you happy? Happy?

He was seen as an ant from the jhokra.  He was looking handsome, very royal and my eyes were fixed on him. The bharaat was surrounded by Bhill, Praja and other relatives. Ma sa entered the scene with the aarti taal. She had to do the tilak. He was a bit naughty and refused to come down his Chetak. Ma sa was trying really hard to do the tilak from down but no he was not bending also. A sign from Rawat mamasa made him bend down and allowed ma sa to do the tilak. Then daata gave a stick to him. He had to touch the entrance of the palace with the stick. He took the stick and was ready to do so. Chakrapani interrupted and told him to be careful and to do it in one go. Pratap obliged and did as told to him. Saubhagyawati was his Sali so she was ready with her plans. Phool too joined her. They both took him to the waiting room. I moved...
