Part 25: Weird Feeling

The groom tied the mangal sutra around Simran’s neck, filling her parting with vermilion. Arjun noticed Meera approaching him with Sameer.

“Arjunji, this is Sameer Khan,” Meera introduced him.

Sameer confidently extended his hand towards Arjun, which he appreciated. Meera then introduced everyone to Sameer, and they exchanged greetings.

Sameer said, “My mother is sitting alone over there. I’m going to her.”

Meera exclaimed, “What??? Your mother is here too? Why didn’t you mention that earlier? Go and bring her!”

“It’s okay, Meera…” Sameer replied.

“Won’t you introduce her?” Meera pressed.

Sameer nodded and went to fetch his mother. Arjun gestured for Meera to sit in the chair next to him. She sat beside him, head held high, glancing at the girls eyeing him. Their disappointed expressions made her feel proud, and she chuckled inwardly.

When Sameer returned with his mother, Meera stood to greet her.

“Ma, this is Meera,” Sameer introduced.
