Speechless moment

It was morning time and a mother was trying to make her son perceive how much she loves him. He was her last underpin if he leaves her life, where she goes, how will she spend life? In this own self-aggrandizement, the son was forgetting that his mother had given him parturition, nurtured him and struggled a lot to irradiate his life.

The glimmer star was forgetting that it would be the morning after every night and then he would lose his glitter. He too will become someone’s father; he will also have children and this will all be replicated again. There is an old saying:-

As you sow, so shall you reap

A mother is beseeching her son

I am your mother and you are the apple of my eyes, I have made you capable that you can get up and walk in front of society.

It was your duty as a mom, you haven’t done anything new and everybody does it with their children.

How will I live my life without you, you are my only hope?

Now we can’t live jointly, our paths are separated. Why don’t you understand?

I am not used to how I would lodge there in an old age home, I don’t know anyone there.

I have my own family, be your support or nurture of them. More people reside in old age homes; you will also learn to live; just take one’s leave off.

Even today, the voice of that mother’s cry reverberates in my ear and I shake like a leaf. The son, who couldn’t even think of living without his mother in imagination and today, was talking about getting rid of his mother.

Human beings are self-centered, and they always think about themselves. As long as they require someone, they cooperate and when their longing is fulfilled then they pull them out.

The first look

There was a lot of merriment in the house, shopping was going on in full swing because the family members of the girl were coming to Aarav’s house to glimpse his marriage. The house was being beautifully embellished and loved ones were summoned. Many varieties of sweets were being purchased from the market, and care was being taken to certify that no one made a gaffe. Both boy and girl were highly strung because it was their first get-together and they were petrified that the relationship wouldn’t end before it started. Parents were gleeful because every parent’s fantasy is that their children get married very stately.

Today was the day whose people were waiting with thirst. The night of the first get-together had come up, the boy and girl were sitting opposite each other and their eyes were bent with shame. There was a lot of deliberation going on both sides of the family and many concepts were being considered. The boy and girl were on the hot seat because their interview was about to launch.

In our society, many questions are asked before nuptials. The family seemed to concur, but both of them went on talking solo at the behest of the family. They were standing on the deck and now a gigantic obstacle was created in front of them. Who would begin talking first? because they were of homogeneous nature which means they were both self-effacing. After a lot of strive, the boy began talking, they both knew everything about each other, but bonding is foremost for a wedding because chemistry is more supreme than biology in love, those people were also trying to commence their chemistry.

Aarav asked Aanya:-

Do you adore me?

What happens with my choice, we will be married to the wishes of the family, and if they fancy us, we will get married.

I know, but we have to be together, would you like to spend your entire life with me?

Now our talking has begun happening, and how can I make such a big commitment on my own?

Things will keep happening but we have to tell our family whether we are ready for the wedding or not.

Don’t get me wrong but I can’t get married without knowing someone, I require some time to know you.

They exchanged their contact numbers and here is their first get-together end and they sit down with the family.

The nuptial wasn’t finalized yet and both families required a little time to recognize each other.

It’s the first night

It’s the first get-together,

Waiting for a moment

Then we are together perpetually,

This is first feeling but something hyperphysical

This is first love maybe there is something divergent.

Introduction

The yarn has begun, but I haven’t done the introduction. Let’s start with the introduction.

This story is about Aarav and Aanya.

Aarav belongs to Khirsu village in Uttarakhand, but because of his job, he stays in Indira Nagar, Lucknow. He has finished his studies at Lucknow University and is now a banker. His family stays in Uttarakhand. His family has a gorgeous mother, a tall father, and a charming younger sister. He is a reticent boy who believes in everything in his family, so he took the decision to marry his parents' desire. Love marriage isn’t feasible for him because no girl has ever come into his life.

Aanya belongs to Kanatal village in Uttarakhand. She has completed her studies at the college of Uttarakhand and now she is a nurse. She works in a private hospital in Uttarakhand and stays in with a joint family. She is very fond of music and she often starts dancing to the beat of the music. She is a cheerful and supportive girl.

She is the daughter of his uncle but she had never seen him before because he has shifted to Lucknow after schooling and very few used to come home.

Come very close

Today was a very auspicious jiffy because Aarav and Aanya were arriving to be very adjacent, they were going to be engaged so their family was trying to make this moment special. Preparations were going very briskly in both houses. Kith and kin have been summoned and many kin have arrived, and they’ve also helped in the work. The children are seeing their dresses over and over, the women were getting hot to trot to go to the parlor and the elders of the house were looking over the preparation of the engagement ceremony. One and all were looking gleeful. The party was to be held at Aanya’s house and all and sundry were getting ready to go to her house.

Her house was being embellished very elegantly, and her kin was also putting the moon in that party because without them the party was sketchy. There are few chances that we all enjoy something jointly and if there is no throng in the party, then there is no amusement in that party and which seemed patchy.

It was the evening time, and Aarav’s family was about to reach her dwelling place. One and all were standing at the front door of the habitation and they were waiting for his family. Those people had attractive flower garlands in their hands and the whole area smelled of the fragrance of the flowers. After a while, many cars stopped at her door, and all looked very excited. His family came out of the car and some people were garlanding them, and some people were showering flowers on them. Seeing so much love and care, tears started flowing from his eyes as he had never seen such esteem before.

The residence was embellished very daintily. Seeing that the eyes of everyone remained wide open, the entrance was decorated with beautiful flowers and red lights and it was light up in the dark. It felt like they were going to set foot in Paradise. All and sundry greeted every last one and they entered
