In the morning arohi woke up early and started her daily routine, her maid duties, breakfast was ready and everyone was the breakfast table, Rahul and nitya had gone for a college trip, they would come later

"Today my sister in law is coming, she is very strict, aarohi you have to behave properly bcs you are going to be home throughout, and dear Tara you will also have to adjust a little in these 2 days as she is orthodox and very strict." Said dadisa

"But dadisa what I have to do? Asked Tara

"Beta , I will give you what to wear and stuff just wear that and you will have to listen to her"

" but dadisa I cannot wear saree and jwellery to office " said Tara

" I know so you go right now wearing whatever you wear everyday, and then while coming you change and come. "

"Okay dadisa thankyou" said Tara very happy " and you aarohi, come to my room immediately for what you are going to wear" " dadisa can i make food and clean everything n then come and dress up"

" no body asked you, you have embaressed rehaan yesterday now I won't let that happen to me, you will learn it the hard way now" she said and dragged aarohi with her

Rehaan looked at her and felt bad about it. Nakul too had the same look

Aarohi

Dadisa dragged me to her room . Sit here. I did and a few maids came and started there work, they made me a wear a heavy dark red saree which was so i heavy I couldn't even move. She then started putting on jwellery on me , one by one, she made me wear around 5 heavy sets, heavy earings that pulled my ears, she filled my hands with bangles reaching half my arm she gave me heavy anklets and a huge mangtika and nose ring. She checked me and asked me to get up i couldn't it was so heavy, "dadisa i cannot get up please can I remove some jwellery everything is very heavy"

"Shut up and get up u have to dress like this everyday now" i looked at her in shock.

"Go now complete your chores" she said

I started moving with allot of difficulty and went downstairs,  I moved to the kitchen n started doing the kitchen , badi buaji was going to come in the evening and there was Pooja to in the house and mine and Tara's parents were invited too. I couldn't move my body pained with all the weight and I was suffering  , i saw rehaan going towards office, he saw me and stood for a brief second, he had pity in his eyes but whats the use now. I kept doing my work , it was afternooon and badi bauji bauji and her daughter Ankita had come. Before welcoming her dadisa asked me to put the veil on my head and cover my face. I did and took blessings from

"So she is rehaans wife" said badi buaji
"Yes didi, she is rehaans wife" said dadisa

She went to her room and rested.

In the evening I did all the preperation for the Pooja, and everyone came , my parents too, the entire time i was instructed to keep my veil. The food also go ready, with all this jwellery it was very difficult to even move. I called at Tara's office to remind her to change but she did not pick so I called her office number and informed her secretary.

Rehaan too came and everyone was present except Tara and nakul

"Bhabhi are you okay?" Asked nitya , yes they were back " i just shook my heard" my body pains. "it's okay bhabhi a little more time"

" Where is nakul and his wife, haven't seen them in soo long"? Asked badi buaji

"Didi yes they are coming, our Tara works at our company so" said dadisa a little scared.

"Ok" said badi buaji she looked like a strict lady.

Suddenly a laughing Tara came on the phone wearing her office clothes. Shit she forgot!
