How fast the seconds run was beyond us, from one you start counting to how far we couldn't count, every seconds matters and once it's gone it's gone for life time no amount of had I wish was going to bring it back.

With the way everything was going mermah's thought and remembered her late husband, saying a prayer for him was what she always does.

Every single thing remind her of her first marriage yet here she was getting married again not to her same first husband to someone different someone completely different from who she wants to end up with funny enough just within a blink of a eye she will be tied down.

All the noise coming out of the room which was filled up with friends college, to strangers Mermah smiled internally maybe this for the best.

Counting so far she knew with the way her breath was taking a turn to seizing she had to stop or have a mini attack which was very often now aday she always seemed to sit then lost counting numbers she later couldn't keep on which will leed her breath less and have a Mini attack.

And just like a dream she found her self breathless, iklil was first to notice stoping the makeup artist then rubbed Mermah back in calm way to help her stay calm.

All the other occupants of the room where asked to stay out and not worry about the brides health few among which are not familiar with the attack she has almost everyday.

Mermah heaved a long breath after gulping down the warm milk given to her by iklil who squeeze her hands reassuringly.

Mermah couldn't help but break into a heart wrenching sob, how was she going to make them under how she was feeling she thought.

"An daura"

Fajr came from the door smiling wildly but seeing the condition her sister was in, the tray she came holding since long forgotten on the console.

Squatting to the level of her sister on the floor fajr pulled her in a hug, Mermah only cried the most praying she won't regret any of her action.

"What if he dies too just like ...."

"No one is going to die, please"

The sight before iklil was making her cry too, maybe it wasn't a right decision after all making Mermah remarry but she has to move on.

...

Everything that seemed to stop moving keep rotating even the sun was moving, Mermah thought watching as the moon travel along with them.

She was inside a lamo alone in the back sit, the drive calm to a stop making her bring her gaze down to the level of the earth.

Mermah smiled seeing as her car door was pulled open for her by none other but aleemudeen looking evenly handsome in his white shinny shada looking like some prince.

He was now her prince the king of her heart. Standing on her feet all eyes where on her, it wasn't an indoor dinner like every other had, hers was an outdoor one, Ahmed came to her side holding rafah hands together in his smiling at his two parent.

He knew he was so lucky having them as his. With the help of deen Mermah got settling into there carriage like sit watching as people chatted away each with a real smile on their faces.

Maybe everything should stop moving even the moon stop Mermah smiled slugging deep into her husbands chest.

The sudden sound made everything still then she back out only to blink her eyes open to realize she was in her bed dreaming a smile took over her features seeing everything was going to work just as planed her wedding day.

To say she was nervous was a biggest understatement ever,
"Ayyya Rome's Juliet"

Fajr mockingly putting down the tray she was holding Mermah rolled her eyes, what's up with the girl and holding trays maybe she was going to be a chef in her next life.

No a waitress Mermah grimace at her own thought shaking it off never the less.

"Am not going to eat anything or else i throw up"

Fajr giggles with the thought of her sister throwing up on her groom, she would definitely win some awards of the world weirdest bride.

Mermah came out of the bathing room in a milk silk bathing room, settling on the stool placed before her console where a mirror out of no where came with light all over it, Mermah smiled at her reflection the spa treatment was really the best seeing as how she was glowing like the the moon in a starless sky.

The hair stylist set to work, putting her hair in a ponytail setting the edges so perfectly.

Mermah smiled watching her reflection in the mirror she really does look like Cinderella, only that her own gown was ice white with flowing hands, it was too much for a wedding dressed but all thanks to fajr for exaggerating everything yet she looked breathtaking.

Her makeup was so intact, with icy white glitter cut crease, umber cocoa lips.

Mermah smiled so brightly holding unto her husbands hands and took a step into the carriage which was taking then to the venue of the grand reception his mother mummy organized for them, just like from the dream people scattered around the open garden which had forever and more written boldly on an icy white real roses wall, Mermah could see the people standing there her name and her husbands was written from the same roses just that it was icy with a touch of silver which was so beautiful.

Her gaze fell next on her mother in-law who was smiling at her and soon walked to the stage where soft natural sounds was playing just to lighten up the mood as people chanters and laughter was all over the place.

Raising the glass cup tumbler she was holding up.

"I'll like to raise a toss you"

She started getting most attention of the people around, each getting a glass to raise up into a toss just like the old lady dressed in off white fited gown did.

"toss to this beautiful couple, been a testimony of the ups and downs my son had came across in this life, it wasn't easy at all but we are all in this earth for a reason and have so much tasks assigned to us which we have to carry out, no task is actually easy we fall"

Talking a breath she paused still holding up her cup in the air.

"I watched as my son took ride that seemed to me to never come to an end, just like the way we plant a date seed into the soil, it takes forever for that seed to grow maybe decades but when it's actually grows them it never dies"

"The ride between this two was like that of the date, so I want to thank you all for having to spend a wonderful moment and get to be part of your journey"

"Cheers to date of the date
A journey to forever and a day after"

....

Here is it the very beautiful ending😌
Wow I can't actually believe it we are done for real 🤝 I can't believe it thanks to you all we did it I love you all
