Her wedding couldn't have been better, she had her man, her father and her friends with her that night. She finally married the man she fell in love with and nothing could stop them now, they were stronger together. Aladdin had taken her for another romantic carpet ride after they sealed their marriage with a kiss, one last day outside the walls of the palace before they fulfill their duties as sultan and sultana. The night air was cold but it did not stop Jasmine from enjoying the ride on the clouds, the different sceneries and monasteries, the different wonders they haven't discovered. Aladdin never felt luckier to find his father and marry the woman he loved and rescued from Jafar's clutches. It was an amazing night, for a few hours. Jasmine's smile turned into a small frown on their way home, on her happiest day, she had worn sadness. "What's wrong, Jasmine? What is on your mind?" asked Aladdin as he cuddled her for warmth. Jasmine looked at her husband and returned a smile, there was something bothering her and Aladdin could tell. 

"I am fine. I am very happy we are finally married and Agrabah found peace. But somehow my heart has not found it, not completely." replied Jasmine. Carpet had landed on the balcony where they kissed for the first time, he bended one side as a set of stairs for the couple to go down and touch land. Aladdin went down first, took Jasmine's hand and helped her climb down. Her room was quiet and dark, not Abu, Rajah nor Genie on sight, they knew they needed to give the couple space now. "What troubles you, my queen? I want to help you." said Aladdin as he drew the curtain to the room aside. Aladdin lit the candles in the room while Jasmine sat on her chaise lounge. "I just...I would have loved to see my mother at our wedding. She would have been very proud I chose someone I loved." said Jasmine "I never knew her, she died when I was a few months old."

Aladdin sat beside his wife, his hand wrapped around her. He felt bad, terrible even. Unlike her, Aladdin knew her mother but lost her when he was about 4 or 5. The Sultan did not mention her much to his daughter, neither did he wanted to sadden her. Aladdin dared ask if he would tell stories to Jasmine about her "He would only tell me that she was beautiful with a kind heart. She always spent time with me and never let other servants near me. Perhaps Genie can tell us more. He may know her." said Jasmine. By the sound of his name, Genie poofed behind them. He asked himself why they had such long faces, the mood was a little off in the air. "Don't worry! I will turn those frowns upside down!" said he, Aladdin stopped him. Upon telling the Genie about Jasmine's sorrow, he sat in the air in front of them, he seemed to remember her, memories flooding back as if they were erased.

Genie: I seem to remember Princess Hana! Oh, the memories are flooding back like a catching cold! She was my old master!

Aladdin: But Genie, I thought you were stuck down there for ten thousand years.

Genie: Me too! But somebody erased those memories until you mentioned her. She was from a different land and needed a husband too, like Sultan Hamed! Oh my Stars! I remember she knew Jafar! They were very close.

Jasmine: Jafar?? Of course, he was here. He got rid of her, didn't he?? She knew what he  wanted all that time and destroyed her!

Genie: Not exactly, Jasmine. It was more than that, different even. I do not know where she went. Perhaps The Sultan knows. But I can tell you everything before I forgot everything.

The Genie summoned a small book, one that would record what he would say to gift to the couple. Jasmine was eager to know about her mother, what she was like and what happened to her. How did she know Jafar? What was their connection? Jasmine held Aladdin's hands tightly, and listened to every word coming from Genie.
