The weather was perfect, the sun shining its love on me. A bright light hugs the land as it touches the land with its stretched out golden arms. The blue sky was speckled with white fluffy clouds that floated lazily in the light breeze.

"Qubool Hai", I replied for the third time to the Imam who was conducting my Nikkah. I let out the breath which I was holding and I smiled at my parents who were wiping their tears of joy. They hugged me and kissed my forehead blessing me. As they moved to congratulate my... well.. my prince charming, I was being suffocated by my cousins and friends, who were hugging me with all their energy while some of my relatives gave their compliments on my wedding.

"I believe it is time to lower the curtains," one of my cousins, Zahra, exclaimed, "the bride is eager to see her prince charming." Everyone laughed on that statement, while I blushed. When Zahra noticed my blush, she said, "Look at the bride, we can see her cheeks turning pink, Is she blushing?", no sooner had she commented on my blushing there was a roar of laughter. I blushed even harder now, and I'm sure my cheeks are now flushed Ugh.... How will I face him now?

"That's enough Zahra," Uncle reprimanded her, thank goodness he intervened, otherwise I would have turned red as a tomato and would have been embarrassed when I meet him.

"Get the drapes down, Aamir and Naadir," My father said to my cousins.

Oh my god, I'm finally getting to see him. Let's begin the countdown..

1... I could see his dark chocolate brown hair, which was neatly gelled up.

2... I could see his white, unlined forehead.

3..... I could see his...

..

"Hayat, wake up, it's getting late, you've to go to the university". My mom yelled while waking me up from my deep slumber. I stirred in my sleep but did not open my eyes as I was dreaming about my prince charming. As I was ready to meet my prince charming's enchanting gaze, my mom's loud words made my eyes shoot open.

"What?, It's 7:30? Why didn't you wake me up earlier, mom" I said gloomily. "My classes start at 8:00 and I'm still in bed, how am I going to get to university in another half-hour?"

I was ready to get out of my cozy bed when I noticed it was raining outside, which meant I could go back to sleep and see my prince charming again. Yay...

"Mom, it's raining outside, therefore I'm not going to class today."

"Although, it's raining outside, sweetie, you're expected to go to university. Do you want to know why?"
