I was sitting in front of Jannat who's head is hanging low I'm not able to see her face since it is covered with a veil, I look everywhere other than her we are here in front of each other to complete a ritual which is done in almost all marriages I have seen, it's simple it is named as  Arsi Mushraf but people here don't use such big words probably because they don't remember. And since I have mostly elders in my family we have to do all the ritual even if don't like it just to respect them.

In this ritual, The bride and groom finally look at each other that too, through a mirror kept in between them. This is after the wedding, but still a part of wedding rituals. And now I am getting annoyed by these stupid rituals.

Jannat's pov

I am gonna see the guy who is my husband for the first time I am stressed out and hell nervous I'll punch those people who say it's no big deal because it is, only I know the rate and the speed of my heart, all the negative thoughts once again filled my mind.

How will he look? I don't mind about the skin colour but what if he is too old what if he has a big beard till it reaches his mid-chest no no I want a guy with a beard but not such a long beard what if —wait his hair what if he is bald he will for sure look ugly ya Allah....my thoughts were interrupted by mama who whispered all the best quickly and I just nod while squeezing and fiddling with my fingers out of nervousness.

My mood has dropped down so badly after fighting with Aayat for no particular reason, I was just letting out my frustration and blabbering out things Which I don't even mean, I don't know what was wrong with me, I went Mad and Aayat is very upset with me for the words I said.

Mama places an 8-inch mirror between us, the screams were loud. Guess what? children's are also screaming and applauding because elders are doing, I bet if I ask any of the kid who is screaming their lungs out to why they are clapping their hands and screaming so loud they would for sure say I don't know, I am doing because they are, all these screams are doing nothing but only giving me goosebumps.

"Aayath pull her veil up darling " she did as said and I automatically shut my eyes tight as if I was scared to see the person whom I am going to be with for the rest of my life, I heard mama's voice "open your eyes sweetheart you can look now" god her calm voice, is everything I need.

I slowly opened my eyes and my breath hitches, and I had to look once again to believe what I am seeing, my eyes witnesses the perfect face man in front of me the screams weren't going down they were still clapping their hands and everything was like moving in slow-motion for me, the way he looked up his perfect jawline moving when he gave a soft smile to mama and his eyes ya Allah angelic features just angelic — wait wait this face this side face— I have seen this face before, my eyes went wide when it hits me that I got married to that mysterious man who I just had a glimpse of but still his heavenly face is in my mind, I can feel myself frizzing when his intimidating eyes met mine Ya Allah how can someone be so perfect also his eyes are just perfect.

I feel way to insecure looking at him.

I don't deserve him.

I think they have mistaken the groom or did I really got married to that mysterious man ya Allah I am going to faint somebody catch me this is too much to handle.

I gave him a small smile which I didn't know he returned or not because I wasn't looking at him.

"They look so cute!" I hear Inaya yelling while everybody laugh and I don't know why though, I thought it was a compliment but I guess they took it as a joke.
