His grandfather understood his feeling, so he did not try to involve him.

Preparations for marriage has started on the rapid pace by both sides, the groom's family and bride's family.

Many of distant brothers and sisters have come and together they are taking care of many responsibilities and preparations like paintings, decorations etc.

Varsha is happy and she can not hide it even if she tries because she ha yearned for her marriage to him for ten years. Many women will tease her how to keep her husband happy after marriage and there are many embarrassing moments where she has to run away and hide from those shameless ladies.

She felt anxious thinking about the indifference of Akash but knowing that he does not have anyone else and how much he cares about his family, she did not feel too much concerned. She hoped everything will be good as long as she loves and cares for him wholeheartedly.

Just four days left for the marriage. Varsha is sitting in the garden and thinking about him. She murmured "I will also be his family soon. I will represent him and will follow him like his shadow. I am sure he will also care for me the same as he does for everyone in his family." She smiled thinking of him.
