It was a misty dawn.
I could feel the cold mist sneaking into my room. My mom used to say March-May is summer time. I wondered why it was so cold and dark though it was April.
I had been lying down on my bed, gazing through the window for a long time. I woke up very early, better to say I hardly slept. I always loved doing this, cocooning to my blanket and begging God for some more time to sleep, after getting up.
This time it is different. I smiled while pulling off my blanket.
It was a much awaited day of my life. I was going to meet him for the first time after an year long of relationship.

I stood in front of the mirror and made sure I looked good.
“Ambili, Your coffee”
“Coming mom”
I walked to my mom and stood near her. She was smiling when she handed over the coffee mug. While sipping from the coffee I remembered how reluctant I was to have my breakfast. I always gave her a tough time about my food.
She seemed reading my mind. I gave her a smile.
Few more hours. My heart was pounding very fast. For the past one year I had been waiting to see him once, at least.

He was standing next to me. I was suffering to take breath, and so was he. Through the corner of my eyes I tried to see his face but in vain.
Just few more minutes. I felt it was easier for me to wait for him for an year than this. I closed my eyes in distress.
“And now, I pronounce you as husband and wife”…
The priest took my hand and placed it above his hands. It was my wedding.
Someone came near me and removed my veil from my face. Blissful!
It was the first time I have ever seen him.
P.S: After giving you so many twists God gave me a wonderful twist in ma life. Its going to be my own story.. :)
P.P.S: This April, I gonna get married to someone whom I love a lot and I never have seen.. :)
