Sapna still had a juventile attitude, what else could be a girl of 8-9 years. Schooling was never an exemplary option for Hari Ram’s only daughter, who had nothing but penury legacy. Hari Ram fixed her marriage to 14 years old boy. Sapna was petty euphorient about her nuptials and more about the added accessories- Bangles and the Red dress. She would talk about it to everyone in her voice and they’d laugh at her inane behaviour. The vivacious girl could not help dreaming about the bangles and the red dress. Well the day came – bamboos, frills and a small marquee were all set up for sapna’s wedding. The atmosphere was elated and filled with exuberance. The bride at last had her bangles and red dress. But the destiny had something else in store. Her fiancé died that very day. Unfazed and unperturbed, she was playing with her weeding supplementaries. The hue and cry in the verandah was unfathomable for the young bride. The senescent womenfolk broke her bangles and snatched her dress. She was forced to wear white. Her cries couldn’t even soften her debilitated parents as they watched everything. Sapna was still demanding her bangles and stuff. The girl cried for them for three days and ate nothing. She had grown feeble but Hari Ram couldn’t provide her what she wanted as he couldn’t take on his flagrant coterie. The girl had to learn to live in white without her bangles and the red dress.
