My life

                                    

                                          
Priya got showered and was in her bathrobe rummaging through the wardrobe as she don't know what to wear. Her husband didn't inform her about where they were going, so she don't have any clue about what type of dress would be appropriate to wear. That's when she noticed a neatly gift wrapped box kept there. She opened it eagerly to find a beautiful yellow-green combination saree. It looked so beautiful, without wasting the time, Priya got changed into the saree. 
Priya started combing hair and did minimal makeup along with waiting for her husband. She was about to fill her partition when she noticed him standing near her through the mirror. She just kept looking at him, while he was busy admiring his wife. Ram moved towards her, Priya extended the kumkum to her asking him to fill her partition. Ram took a pinch of kumkum with broad smile and applied it neatly on her partition. Priya closed her eyes in happiness, Ram softly pecked her forehead with all his love. 
Ram: Priya
Priya:huh?
Ram: this is for you.
Ram extended a jewel box to priya who looked at him little hesitantly not knowing what to do. Ram thrusted the box in her hand.
Ram: open it
Priya opened it to find a beautiful antique emerald necklace along with a heavy earrings. Priya looked at him questioningly as it looked very unique.
Ram: This jewel is our family heirloom Priya. Dadi gave this to mumma. Actually today this should be given to you by mumma. As she is not with us, I am giving this to you.
Priya looked at him not knowing how to react listening to him as this was not a piece of jewel anymore, as it holds more emotions with it.
Ram: will you wear it?
Ram asked hesitantly, while Priya looked at him with love
Priya: only if you make me wear it.
Ram visibly relaxed listening to her making Priya to smile at him.
Ram made her sit infront the vanity and made her wear the necklace along with the earrings. That's when he noticed her hand, she was wearing her watch along with a simple bangle. 
Ram: wait a minute, I will be back.
Ram returned back with another jewel box and kneeled down before her. Then he opened the box and took two ethnic gold kada with diamonds and emerald stones embedded in it. He made her wear that. The bangle goes well with the necklace she had worn.
Priya: yeh..
Ram: these are mumma's Priya. Dad used to tell me how mumma loved to wear these bangles with this set. If you are not comfortable, you can change wear something Priya.
Priya: Ram why are you behaving so formal with me? I'm happy to get our parents blessings on this day. I'm more than happy to wear this.
Ram pecked her forehead lovingly while she hugged him. Ram wiped his tears and parted from her.
Ram: let's go
Ram got up and was about to move when Priya held his hand which made him to stop in his track. Ram gently caressed her cheek.
Priya: you are fine right?
Ram: I'm more than fine, when you are with me.
Priya got up and gently kissed his forehead allowing her lip to linger on his forehead for a extra minute while he just closed his eyes to cherish the moment.
Both composed themselves,
Ram: let's go 
Ram held out his hand to her, she smiled and slipped her hand into his. He kissed her back of the palm before moving out taking her with him.
Once they settled in the car, Ram blindfolded Priya and didn't disclose anything about his next plan. Priya sat there huffing, as Ram is not disclosing anything even after so much pestering. Ram smiled at her antics and side hugged her, having her close to him since the driver was the one who was driving the car. He spoke randomly to distract her mind. Soon they reached their destination. Ram took her and made her sit in a place where he want her and silently slipped away from her after whispering in her ears to remove the blindfold.
Priya after opening her eyes and looked around as it was pitch dark and nothing was visible to her. She was startled with the darkness since she can't find Ram. She was about to shout his name, when the AV started playing through the projector. She stood there dumbfounded seeing the AV. It started with her mother wishing her a happy birthday along with how much she loves her and also about how Priya is her pride followed by everyone who adores her. Everyone wished her for the birthday along with telling how much she means to them, how she had become a vital part in their life, how much they love her. She stood there in tears seeing everyone love for her, her family, her friends, even nandhini and her brother, sister-in-law did wish her. They just wished very curtly somewhere in the middle. Priya never felt this loved by all in her life. She just wants  Ram by her side now. Everyone except Ram was in that AV. She sat there in daze not understanding anything. She was about get up when again everything become a pitch dark making it impossible for her to see anything.
