It was a sunny morning,the sky was an expanse of sapphire blue,speckled with feathery white clouds as the radiant rays of the sun shone brightly in the azure blue sky.The mansion stood in all it's glory as the sun rays reflected upon the white marble of its structure.Loud voices could be heard from the a specific room which happened to be the study of Mr.Qureshi.The light from the large windows filled in the vast room.

"I.Would.Not.Marry.Him"she said through gritted teeth.

"Give me a solid reason for saying no"

"ISN'T ME SAYING NO ENOUGH?"she yelled this was more than enough.How could they force her into a marriage?

"I NEED A PROPER REASON FOR SAYING NO" the other women yelled too.

"NAHI KARNI TOU NAHI KARNI....KIA MASLA HAI APKAY SAATH?"

(I dont want to marry him,whats your problem?)

"AP CHAHTI HAIN MAIN US GANDI SHIKAL WALAY SAI SHAADI KARUN?"

(you want me to marry that ugly guy?")

"Ilaya kisi kai baarey main aesay nahi kehtay"Amna said making her roll her eyes.

(You shouldn't say anything like this about someone,Ilaya")

"and hes not ugly either"she said making Hassan gasp,but he knew better to not interrupt his wife.

"aunty abhi sai apni damaad-to-be ki side lerahi hain"Ehan snickered earning a glare from Ilaya.

(aunty your siding with your to be son-in-law already)

"I already told you guys I don't want to marry yet"she spoke.

"That was almost a year ago"Amna rolled her eyes.

"my decision is still the same"she said glaring at her mother.

"and it was like seven months ago"she added.

"Aunty main tou kehta hun*chew*iski shaadi*chew*kar kai faarigh karein isse"Ehan said with a mouthful of crisps.

(i suggest......get her married already)

"tum chup karo"Ilaya glared at him.

(you shut up)

"kyun?sharam arhai hai"he wiggled his eyebrows.

(why?you feeling shy?)

"sharam tou tumhai aati hai Aria ka naam sun kai"Ilaya scoffed.

(it's you who feels shy at the mention of Aria's name)

She turned towards her mother not waiting for his reply.

"nope-"Amna shook her head and continued, "-i'm getting you married this year and thats final"

"apko mujhe ghar sai nikalnay ka itna shauq haina tou mai khud chali jati hun"she glared at Amna.

(and if you are so hell-bent on kicking me out of this house,I can leave)

"Ilaya!"Amna warned.

"kia(what)Ilaya?"she snapped back.

"i told you i would not marry him or anyone for that matter"
