LOVE IS BLIND.

9.

Farah's pov:

Today is the day I will be married and I have to accept it whether I like it or not. Bella and Maria came to my room and Bella said excitedly.

Bella: Gosh! Farah, you look marvelous.

Maria: I agree Bells.

We all left for the marriage hall, it's according to Muslim rituals so they took me to one side of the hall while another side was covered with light curtains. Soon Shahid and the other boys stay on another side of the curtains. Even though it was a visible curtain still I kept my head down. Muslim priests came and began Nikka( Muslim ritual of marriage). He asked Shahid:

Priest: you Shahid Maqdoomi son of Dawood Maqdoomi accept Farah Fareen daughter of Asad Ahmad Khan as your wife?

Shahid: yes I accept.

Then the priest made him sign Nikka paper and asked me:

Priest: you Farah Fareen daughter of Asad Ahmad Khan accepts Shahid Maqdoomi son of Dawood Maqdoomi as your husband?

I had tears in my eyes. This is it.

Farah: ye... S I accept.

Then he made me sign Nikka paper, I signed with trembling hands.

Priest: now I announce you both husband-wife as per Muslim Shirya( rituals).

Now curtains were removed. And the priest left. My head was still down. I am married now and the person in front of me is my husband.

Shahid's pov:

She is mine now. My wife, my queen. But her head is still down. I know how it was difficult for her. I understand that and I will make sure she will be happy in the future. I stood up and came to her, my God she looked stunning, my heart skipped beating for a second, I controlled myself and took out the contract paper which I had already signed.

Shahid: you have to sign this as well.

I put a contract in her hands. She looked at the contract for a very long period but finally signed it. I took it from her hand and moved to another side hall where there was a party, all the gang was there. I have kept marriage rituals separate from others only my close relatives and friends are there.

Dawood Maqdoomi: well my son now you are a married guy. I hope you will take good care of her like I took care of your mother.

Mom came to and hugged me and said crying.

Sana Dawood Maqdoomi: God Shahid she is beautiful.

3 days early...

Dawood: what he'll have you done? You kidnap her?

Shahid: Don't act like this Dad when you have done it as well to marry Mom.

Dawood: why kidnap when we could convince her and her family?

Dad said annoyed.

Shahid: seriously Dad do you think we could convince them? If it was that essay then why didn't you convince mom and her family?

Dad became silent and soon Mom came to me and said softly.

Sana: OK if that's what you want. But promise me you will take care of her and love her always.

Shahid: yes Mom, I promise I will always love her and take care of her.

Mom and Dad hugged me and gave me a blessing.

Sana: can we meet her?

Shahid: sorry Mom, not today, I want her to digest everything and want her to get ready for marriage.

Dawood: I understand what you are saying, Darling, we have to give her time, we will meet her at the wedding.

Present...

Farah's pov:

I can't believe it, he made such a contract but what can I do about it? I can't escape from him. After that, we all went to another side of the hall where there was the whole gang. Aliza was with me. How stupid of me, I didn't see the face of my husband even after marrying him. I was in so much pain at that time, that I forgot to look at him. How will I ask her about it? After being a little bit hesitant, I asked nervously.

Farah: who is Shahid?

She looked at me stunned but didn't say anything for a minute and then finally looking forward she said.

Aliza: the one with a black suit and red tie talking with some people.

I looked in her direction and I saw a very hot, handsome, sexy person in front of me. My heart started beating fast. He is my husband? Handsome hunk. Farah! Stop it, don't think about it. Even though he is a hunk and my husband don't forget that he kidnapped you, threatened you, and forced you to marry him. But still, I can't stop myself from looking at him.

After a few minutes, he looked at me and started walking toward me. I became nervous. He stopped in front of me offered his hand and said softly.

Shahid: all of here want us to dance, so please dance with me.

I hesitated at first but there were lots of people here and if I refused, everybody would notice it. So I took his hand and he led me to the dance floor in the middle of the hall.
