Kaira : Together for a moment called Forever by Vrushy ( Chapter 3 )

Hello Everyone.
Chapter 3
The Wedding !!

The whole Singhania Mansion seemed to be bathed in some kind of vermilion syrup as it was decorated by various shades of red coloured curtains and flowers.

Naira walked down the stairs, slowly towards the mandap and her heart started racing seeing it.

Unwillingly, she moved forward and sat down beside the groom. She didn’t even dare to look at his face as anger for him flowed inside her veins. The Pandit ji asked them to stand for the pheras. It was she who stood up first out of irritation and that’s when she observed her groom.

He was looking equally uninterested as she was at that moment. He stood up and both of them started with their pheras. With each round, Naira felt herself loosing the battle and nearing the graveyard where her emotions would be completely buried forever. She kept praying to God, so that some miracle happens and this marriage stops but her hopes turned into ashes when he filled her hairline with sindoor.

Naira and Karthik took blessings from their elders and they headed towards the Goenka Mansion.

Naira reached their bedroom after few rituals and she kept pacing along its length. The door opened slightly and she saw him coming inside. He gave a small smile to her and bolted the door.

Her heart started beating faster and louder. She slowly started walking backwards towards the wall. Karthik looked at her in surprise and it was evident on his face. She felt her breath stuck in her throat when she hit the wall. She shut her eyes tightly and clutched her lehenga in her fists.

Naira never had a boyfriend and thus she was very nervous around men. Karthik was her first in every sense and it made her gulp in fear. She didn’t want him anywhere near her, atleast for now as they barely knew each other at the moment.

She stood there with her eyes shut tightly in a way accepting her defeat as he is her husband. She didn’t want him in her proximity but she accepted the truth that she didn’t have the courage to attack him or refuse him.

Also she knew the fact that he was her first in every sense. But she wasn’t, she was his second. His second wife.

Her mumma had told her about Karthik being married before and that the marriage didn’t end on a good note. She didn’t knew much details about him, and Naira was only thankfull. The less knowledge she has, the better.

Naira slowly opened her eyes when she didn’t feel his presence anywhere near her. Her eyes widened when she found him standing infront of her with a confused expression. Karthik smriked at her, opened his wardrobe door beside which she was standing. He took out his night clothes and went into the washroom.

Karthik took a cold shower to calm down his nerves. It had been a hectic and tiring day both physically and emotionally. He had married a girl he didn’t even knew properly. But then, his family was his first priority. He needed to do this for them. He was helpless and he wondered if she had some of her reasons as well.

The thoughts revolving in his mind, he dried himself with the towel. Got into his t-shirt and track pants and opened the door of the washroom. As he stepped out of the washroom, he saw Naira placing pillows and blanket on the couch that was opposite to his bed.

“Its ohkay, Naira. You don’t have to do this. I will manage it on my own.” He said.

Naira became numb for a moment because he addressed her with her name. It sounded different when he pronounced it. She ignored her haywire thoughts and placed the pillow and spread the blanket on the couch. Karthik watched her as she completely ignored him and continued with what she was doing.

“Naira ?!!” Karthik called out.

“Good night.” She said, turned off the main lights and to his surprise, slept on the couch.

He exhaled deeply and went to the right side of the bed as he is used to sleeping there and leaned his head on the head rest. He turned his head to see her sleeping peacefully on the couch. She didn’t even care to remove her jwelery and lehenga which are visibly heavy. His mind sank down in to deep thoughts.

Naira !!

When his parents had brought her marraige proposal he refused it and there were two reasons for that. Firstly, he stopped believing in love as his first love gave him a bitter experience and secondly she is not a divorcee like him. He cannot be that insane to marry her when he knew that he can never be the reason for her happiness.

But as always, his father, the great Manish Goenka had declared his decision and Karthik was left with no other option. He prayed that atleast Naira refuses this marriage proposal, but no. She accepted it. He had seen her only once before getting married to her, on their engagement.

Guilt occupied major part of his heart after seeing her innocent face and he tried to talk to his father. But his dad refused to even listen what he has to say, stating that he didn’t want anyone else taking decisions of this house.

Karthik was literally shivering when he entered the mandap and glanced at Suwarna maa, asking her to think about this marriage for the last time, but it seemed like destiny was not favouring him.

But a hope, measuring the size of a peanut raised in his heart seeing Naira’s smile. May be she will help him in getting over his past, May be she will give him the love on which he has already lost trust once.

But his assumptions proved wrong a few minutes ago. Of how she was afraid of him when he got close to her. She doesn’t even want to share a bed with him. And immediately he realized that this was a forced marriage for her as well. She didn’t have a say in it.

Tears formed at the corner of his eyes but he quickly composed himself and rested his head on the pillow but sleep didn’t seem to come to him so early. He turned himself in the direction where he could watch her and kept on staring at her sleeping form till he himself fell into the deep slumber.
