Small Story 129 Marriage Day Suspense Senthil had just arrived in Bengaluru for his first posting at a leading bank in Jayanagar. Feeling lost in the unfamiliar city, he was hesitant to ask for directions, as the locals spoke Kannada, a language he didn’t understand.

Meena’s advice and support had truly made a difference in his life. As their friendship grew stronger, Senthil and Meena decided to get married. However, Senthil was nervous about asking for Meena’s parents' consent. Meena reassured him, and the wedding date was set. On the wedding day, a surprising revelation unfolded.

Senthil, realizing how everything had come full circle, couldn’t help but feel grateful and amazed by how smart and thoughtful Meena had been in bringing them together. What had started as a new chapter in a strange city had turned into a beautiful, intertwined journey, all thanks to Meena’s careful planning and intuition. K. Ragavan 18-1-25
