Siva was staring at the garden before sitting under the celing of the varanda on the swing with her legs folded side ways thinking back to the other night quarrel between her and her boss sighing when Prem walked towards her and sat beside her saying "You know you shouldn't take his words seriously".

"Why doesn't he trust me?" Siva asked making Prem sigh and explain "I know Deva from ten years and it took nine years for trusting me and share his story what do you expect from a guy like him?" making her think a bit.

"I expect nothing and I don't care let him rot with his plan and see if I give a fuck" Siva said in anger making Prem amused at her swearing as he chuckled "You are stubborn may be he will trust you someday" saying he stood up and continued"Go and get changed the king's family is going to be here soon for the pelli panula pooja" and went inside the villa.

The king's family came to villa and Gayatri was about to enter the house when they Siva"Wait!" making them pause as Siva came out with haarati plate continuing "Since you are entering into your brother's house and going to be a bride let me take dishti" and took Gayatri's dishti making everyone smile except Deva.

She handed the plate to Maniamma's son and nodded towards them to come inside and Gayatri hugged Siva before going to her brother and put kumkuma on his forehead saying "I went to temple and did pooja you'll get a good wife brother" making her family laugh.

"Wife to him. I pity her already" Siva mumbled to herself making Deva look at her and Hima came towards Siva saying "Let's see the arrangements" and took Siva inside the pooja room.

The king and his son planted a stick with turmeric and kumkuma before tieing a thread to it and prayed making poojari gaaru say "Amma! If she has a elder brother please ask him to come and bless her" which made Narsimha Raayala look down at his feet with an unreadable expression.

"I do have one" saying Gayatri walked towards Deva continuing "Annaya bless me" and touched his feet making Hima smile and bought the akshintalu plate to him who took the akshintalu and threw on her head blessing "Challaga undu".

Everyone sat in the living room as poojari gaaru informed "Raja vaaru tomorrow you can put the mehendi and sangeet then the Friday morning will be haldi and in the evening the princess is going to be Rajula family's queen" making Gayatri blush slightly and Hima bumped her shoulder with her sister-in-law raising her eyebrows teasingly.

"Ayya put this at the god's feet until marriage" poojari gaaru informed showing a paper making Deva look at Siva and she was about to take the paper when one of the aunt's said "Annaya! Since this is auspicious place we decided the venue here but why are you allowing some outsider to involve in every work they might be a bad omen people too" making Siva pause and retreated her hand as everyone looked at her who's face is void of any expression.

"This is my house and everyone here follows my rules if you don't like it you can leave" Deva said authoritively making that aunt protest but Siva beat her to it "It isn't the person who's bad omen it's the person's thoughts that are bad" and took the paper from the poojari gaaru and walked to the pooja room.
