Qubool hai!

4:00 AM

I woke up hearing my alarm.Its today.The day I've always dreamt of.I can't wait till 11.Am feeling overwhelmed by the emotions.Ya Allah please make it in khair.Aameen...

I prayed Tahajjud as usual.But today the dua is different.Today those past duas are gonna come true.Am gonna be Mrs.ShahJahan finallyyyyyy within hours.

The slight headache from yesterday was still present.But I couldn't ruin the day by it.So I ignored it.No more stress No more worries today.Only happiness.I miss her alott today.

After praying fajr I was engulfed by baba.He is smiling despite the tears.I felt a pang in my heart.No matter how old a daughter grows her father ALWAYS comes first to her mind.The one who is supportive yet stern so that she won't forget about akhirah. Whenever I was accused or pointed at he always protected me.He was there with me through my nightmares, holding my hand.I would miss him more than anyone.With him my mornings started and with him by my side I slept peacefully after every nightmare.

"Babaaa,if you don't stop this Nigeria falls am gonna start mine"

"Sorry hayati I can't get over the fact that my little one's finally found her knight in shining armour rescuing her from bachelorette."

"Baba,its okay to tell you miss me than teasing me okay*pouts*"

We were both staring at each other.Him with affection and a little bit pride..?I guess and I was thinking how would I be able to leave this man behind though we would meet I would be there(his home)most of the time.Ya Rabb

"If you both have done with your melodrama let me remind you that today is someone's wedding.For Allah's sake be responsible atleast today Zahid."

"Ummii,you can't miss the moment common join us and tell me how much you love me*winks*"

"Ya Allahhhhhhh am done with this girl.Give her happiness in abundance"

Aameen

So they hugged each other,cried,laughed over silly things and at last began lecturing me again*shakes head*.

It's almost 7 and everyone gathered around me and started applying milk to my face and hands.After that I took a bath.I hate milk eww.

We had our breakfast together with our entire clan sorry family.I've 6 aunty's and 5 uncle's from paternal side and 5 aunty's and 3 uncle's from maternal.Baba and Ummi being the fourth and third child for their parents you can guess about my elder cousins and their children.

Finally am ready.I look different.With my elegant red lehanga and minimal bridal makeup I should really appreciate Sameera aunty for pulling this look.I had covered my hair with a red scarf.As an Indian ofcourse the jewellery was necessary.So there were necklaces and bangles covering most of me.And maang tikka contrasting my whole bridal attire.To complete the whole thing aunty sprayed the perfume with a smirk and wink.Its been since forever since I used Mehandi,Flowers,Makeups and perfume.All preserved for Him.And today my hands are filled with henna,hair covered by jasmine and roses,Face with makeup and I smell good.

Ummi came in and kissed both my hands and forehead and then put her bangles on me.I was on the verge of tears yet swallowed it thinking of the happiness which is away from a couple of hours.

Its finally 10.The sky looks blue,blissful as if the whole world is rejoicing our happiness.I was on cloud nine already.Though my stomach is in knots.I ignored it thinking it could be due to the nervousness.

Baba had told me to go with Ummi,but my cousins didn't allow me.Telling I would change right after telling Qabool hai not my words theirs.So here we are on our way to the hall where our wedding would be held.

Ya Allah sabar de...
