Author POV
Everything finally settled to the place, everyone was arranging the couch and a table in the aangan area for the guests
Finally as it was done, They all started to wait for the visitors
Anushka stood up from the couch and went inside in "Nandini's" room
She entered the room, to find her sitting on the bed with hands on her forhead and an silent expression on her face
"Nandini" she called her, who didn't took the courage to even move from her place
Her eyes were closed and her long eyelashes were fluttering a little indicating she was awake and was resting her eyes

Anushka took steps towards nandini and sat beside her, she shaked her and held her wrist to remove them from her forehead "ese sir pakad kar nhi bhaithte nandu galat baat" she said and shaked her again
Nandini nodded her head while her eyes were still closed, Anushka briefly examined her facial expression and asked "kya hua nandu? Itni pareshan kyu lag rhi ho?"

Nandini just shaked her head in "nothing" and opened her eyes, looking at her with an pale expression on her face,

Anushka looked at her with tensed expression and her eyebrows knitted
"Kya hua?" She asked again while raising her eyebrows
Nandini pulled a force straight line-smile on her lips and said "bhabhi...ajeeb sa lag raha hai" Nandini said while rubbing her palms together

Anushka hmmed and asked "per kyu?"
Nandini turned and met her gaze to anushka, "Aaj tak paanch rishte aakar chale gaye hai, kisiko bhi ham pasand nhi aaye, hame koi aas nahi rahi" Nandini said

"Esa kyu sochti ho, sab sahi raheyega, baba keh rahe the ki kafi achha parivaar hai, ladka achha kamata hai aur shehari khandhan hai, shehar me do Ghar hai unke" Anushka said while putting her hands on nandini's shoulder

Nandini removed her hand and said "aap esa vyavahar nah kare ki aapko samjh nhi aa raha hai ham kis uddeshy se keh rahe hai, ham unke ameer- gareeb hone se chintit nhi hai, hame unka hame pasand karna ya nah karne se chintit hai, ham thak Gaye hai apne muh per in jhaiyaan ke kaaran har baar asveekar hote hote aur apna aapman sunte sunte" Nandini said while making a criss-cross of her legs and sitting on bed comfortably

Anushka went silent for some minutes but continued "per aakhri rishta aapko aapnane ke liye Maan Gaye the"

"Duniya-bhar ki dahej maang kar?" Nandini cut off anushka and raised her one eyebrow and looked at her
Anushka shut her mouth and slightly nodded her head

Nandini just sighed and sat there sadly, suddenly they heard an car horn,"ham dekh kar aate hai" anushka said and went away

Nandini POV
I sat there while hugging my knees, I hate these interactions with new people for marriage, I remember the day when for the first time, marriage proposal came for me, I was so happy and I told about it to everyone and picked out my suit, jhumka and everything by myself
I was smiling the whole day, and brought snacks for them by myself
I was smiling and blushing to myself like a stupid because I always wantd to get married to someone who will love me like how my baba moves maa and how bhai loves bhabhi, but that day, I got rejected for these freckles I have on my face, I never knew these were considered ugly, that was the first day, I got to know how non-pretty I am
My heart broke a little that day, but bhabhi made me understand how maybe, they were not for me and God choosed someone else,
On the second proposal, I was uncomfortable of what they will think of me and my freckles and that uncomfort feeling turned into insecurity when they and three more proposals also called out these things
I never looked at myself so briefly into mirror to notice my flaws, but these freckles all over my cheeks and nose started to came to my first notice when I looked at my face in the mirror
And now, I have lost hope
But I don't blame them, People around me doesn't have these, neither roop, anushka nor maa
It's not normal, so they may not to be comfortable with it, but it still somewhere leaves an impact on my heart
