Sister Wedding

I remember it in mental snapshots. Brief glimpses of this or that when I was ten or eleven. And I m sure there must have been much ado in our house back then, with some old friends playing wedding games and all. Finally, its time for those weddings games to turn in to real story. But try as I might I don’t recall all that much.

Today is the big day and I am thinking about you. But thoughts are really confusing. One side I wonder how you look? I don’t see you in your wedding dress, but I m sure you looked beautiful. I don’t see you to take “Saat pheras” during the marriage rituals nor running through rice or tossing your bouquet. Try as I might, those snapshots are blank for me. On other side, thinking about the crazy omelette and some fish which I had to eat in breakfast on such a auspicious day rather than delecious food I would have been in your wedding.

Well, the destiny had its own desires!!!

Your Wedding might not be as dramatic and unexpected as Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan Wedding. But I am sure it would have been Great Wedding!!

Your wedding knocks my memory and pushes me back in history to remember all the nice sweet things we had done together. As I look back with pride and deep sense of nostalgia I recall the phase that we togehter passed through. I remember how you used to protect me from father everytime I had complains from school. I remember how you used your girl power to get all information about cute girls of our school. You also drew all the biology diagrams for me (yeah I know I still owe you the chocolates I promised then for each picture).

As we grew the role changed (though more of a body guard…) but then we love each other bits and advised. As I rubbed my memories more, I can clearly see the old days when we both travelled 12 hour bumpy ride from Jabalpur to Nagpur in bus for your admissions. Remember the arguments we had in Indore before your Interviews in Glaxo??? I can’t stop myself from laughing when I think of those times.

Sis, all the best to you in your marriage life. I will stick to you strong and thick in all circumstances as you are always worthy for me to hold on to.

So Mr.R. As you hold my sister's hand and walk down that aisle.. I want you to know my sister means the world to me. I may not send her any cards on her birthday. I may argue with her about everything under the sky. We may have our differences...But at the end of the day, I love her to bits. She will always be my sister and I expect you to take care of her!

Please don’t make her cry.

Here is wishing for both of you and very happy life together.
I love you both.

And Ravinder, welcome to the Worah family!!! :-)
