Saima

Life had always been easy for Saima.

As a child her parents had spoiled her rotten.

She came from an affluent family, where foreign trips and branded bags were a norm.

Her father had always loved her .

He had always told her how special she was .

She was after all his princess.

She had one younger brother so naturally she was the bossy older sibling.

She had never really wanted for anything.

Asking for something had never occurred to her .

She had never needed to .

She had great friends,
Her fathers credit card .

A family who loved her and supported her whatever she wanted.

So why would she ever ask for something.

And then she met him.

They had first met eachother at a dance rehearsal,

She was the brides friend .

He was the brides brothers close friend.

They all had gathered to dance fir the mehndi.

He was so handsome.

He had the most bright eyes .
They were a lighter brown , with flecks of green.

His jaw was square and his hair was slightly long. Not in the way you would think is purposefully.
And he had a sense of humor . His laugh was attractive aswell.

She had never experienced the butterflies she had when they met.

He had just comeback after doing his masters.

She had dated before , but nothing too serious.
And mostly those relationships ended as just being friends.

Which had more to do with she had never felt that attraction like she did with him.

As luck would have it they were paired for the dance .

She had never really missed a step before but with him she had been so nervous.

He had of course laughed at their clumsiness. But when he looked at her she could tell he liked her aswell.

After the dance practice , Haroon the brides brother had offered to drop her and then suddenly had said that he had afew errands.

That car ride was all it took for them to know they were meant to be.

By the end of the car ride they had exchanged numbers , and shy smiles.

By the time they had danced in the mehndi they were officially dating.

She was only 20 and he was 25 .

She still had to finish university, while he had to setup his firm.

They were both okay with it.

They knew they were it for one another .

Dating , this time around was trickier though.

The fear of it not working out with him was something she had never experienced before .

He would pick her up after her classes ended and they would end the day together , dropping her home only wjen she was falling asleep.
She would work on her assignment while he worked on his laptop.
