Accidentally Married... (Fiction)

I got married today. You would be thinking I am so happy and excited about my married life. Well, let me take you to the past.

I was so happy in my life. As I didn't have someone with whom I would love to spend my whole life, I was single. But being happy was not enough for my parents. They wanted me to get married and started convincing me about it. According to them, this is the right age for getting married. I gave my consent.

And why would they wait? They started searching for a life partner for me. As I was not sure about anything, I chose to let my parents decide for me.  I didn't even talk to the person and didn't meet him. I didn't even think about seeing his photo. I was sure about my parents' choice.
My parents finalized everything. And that is how I am married today.

Here in Rajasthan, we have a custom in which the groom wears Sehra on the face. So I didn't have a glance at him even in the Mandap.

I am sitting in a room, nervous and thinking about my married life. Thinking, how will it be.

Another bride enters the room and sits near to me. As I look so nervous, she starts talking to me.

She said I don't know why marriage is so important. I used to talk to my husband but didn't feel the bonding. He earns 80,000 Rupees per month, which is quite good. So I got ready for the wedding. I wish for a good future for us.

Then I said, and I never talked to my husband.

She said, what?

Yes, I replied.

She said, anyways I have to go to another room.

It seems like she is familiar with everyone and everything in the house.

She left the room.

I am sitting and wondering what is next.

After some time, a person enters the room.

I look at him. He is in Sherwani, the same which one my husband was wearing. But this time, I could see his face as he is without Sehra. He is the most handsome man I have ever seen. It is like love at first sight.

He comes forward and sits near to me. I am so happy that I got married to him. I am falling in love with him in every fraction of a second.
Our eyes look at each other. And I am losing control of myself.

I kissed him. It was the best kiss ever, and I felt complete with him. He is the greatest gift I could ever get. He looked into my eyes and smiled at me. I wanted to say I love you to him, but I controlled. As he is my husband now, we will have plenty of time.

We both are silent, then the bride who came into the room a few minutes back, entered.
She said he is my husband for whom I was talking.

Well, they are two brothers, and both got married on the same day. One is my husband, and another one is her. As I never saw my husband, I misunderstood here. I don't know why he let me kiss him. Why didn't he stop me? Maybe he also felt the same.

They both left the room.

What should I do now? I have already fallen in love with him. He is the one I always wanted. Even though we didn't share a word, but that bonding I could feel. His eyes I couldn't forget, the way he looked at me and smiled.

Some other family members come into the room for taking me to my husband's room.

I am in my husband's room now, which is our room from now onwards.
My husband enters. It is the first time when I saw his face. He is good, but I am already in love with his brother. I am feeling guilty that I didn't take things in my control even in searching for my partner. I should have met and talked in beforehand. But what has happened has happened.


Today is the next morning, in my new home. I am observing everything as it is new to me. This home is so big and white color painted.

In the evening, after talking to my husband, I came to know that he doesn't have a job because they are already rich. That is not what I wanted. I always wanted a self-dependent person. Every second, my mind is taking me to his brother. And the irony is that his wife told me that she didn't feel that bonding with him. And here I don't want anyone else other than him. Those eyes, smiles, and bonding I am not able to forget. I don't know how I will spend my whole life with someone whom I don't even love.

What should I say? Is it destiny?

No.

Your life partner should be of your choice. No doubt, your parents will search the best for you according to them. Don't forget, according to them!
Your desires, choices, and with whom you want to spend your whole life, no one knows better than you.
Even before buying a mobile, we do a lot of research and then finalize it. So why to rush simply on other's choices. Stop for some time, and be with someone with whom you want to be.


So anyone out there reading this, I hope you take control of your life. 🙂
