I was looking at Ammi and Hira but they had a smile on their face.
I was still dazed up that I never realize when they left.
"So someone couldn't keep their eyes of you," Hira said as she sat next to me.
"Are they marrying me off to Murat? Does he know about my past?" I asked Hira.
"No, you are marrying Farhad, and no, he doesn't. He said he doesn't want to know about your past
"Hira, he needs to know. He has to Hira please."
"Hira. Come here," Idaya called making her leave me alone.
This was too much for me. I ran to my room and cried. I then felt a hand on my head and saw it was Ammi.
"Ammi I don't want to marry again. Please Ammi,"
"But why meri Bacchi. He is such a good boy. He doesn't want to know about your past. We just told him you were married and was going to tell him what happen but he said that he isn't interested in knowing.
"Ammi. I worked with him, he is mean towards me. He feels that I deceived him. I cried as I told making her shocked.
"Deceived?" she asked.
"Yes deceived. He is the guy I loved in college. Ammi. Please," I pleaded
"He loves you Afreen. Before he left he said to me to tell you that he really loves you and wants to marry you. I think he realized his mistake. Beti there very few who get the person they love. Accept it. I'll be happy knowing you married in a good family because I know him and his family well. I'll be at ease."
Ammi looked so happy that I can't destroy her happiness, so I agreed. I know she only wants my wellbeing and I don't want to hurt her so I agreed.
"Now come we have to go shopping to see what dresses you want to wear and who would you like to invite."
"Just Bhaijaan and Bhabhi," I said making her nod.
""Okay. Tomorrow some people will come with outfits and designs. Choose your choice," Ammi said making me nod.
The rest of the day went by with the preparations
They having everything which my own parents didn't give me. I don't know if I should be happy or sad.
5 days later.
Today is my mendhi and tomorrow hardi. I begged Ammi not to do all of this but they didn't listen...
I picked a simple wedding dress and jewelry set as I don't want them to spend a lot on me. It is a maroon Anarkali with gold embroidery at the bottom, sleeves and on the waist. The scarf was gold with a small border on the edges.
