I saw him again in my dream
My heart was racing at an abnormal rate.
I was dolled up in a red heavy bridal lehenga. The transparent dupatta which had a lighter shade of the dress had wailed my face till my waists as I slowly walked towards the garden where the wedding was about to take place.
My heart was beating loudly against my chest. My breathes turned heavier as I sat in front of him.
After all the rituals, the qazi sahab asked me.
Noor Fatima Hussain, Binte Hussain Ehtesham kya aapko yeh nikah qubool hai?
He questioned me and my breath hitched.
Who was my groom? I'm getting married. What if he turns out to be abusive? What if I failed as a wife? What if I couldn't make him happy? What if we fought? What if he divorced me? What if in future, he ended up regretting marrying me? What if my mother in law ended up hating me?
All these thoughts clouded my mind. I gulped the huge lump that formed in my throat when I felt someone patting my shoulder.
I looked at my right side and found an elderly woman who was wearing a deep red Salwar kameez, a dupatta draped over her head wearing a gold chain and small earrings in her neck and ears.
Bolo beta. Tum mere bete se nikah kerna chahati ho na?
She asked me squeezing my hand gently and I felt comfortable. Her smile was tender and filled with love.
I took a deep breath as the qazi sahab repeated the question.
Qubool hai.
I whispered and the qazi sahab asked again.
Qubool hai.
I replied again and the qazi sahab asked again.
Qubool hai.
I replied for the final time. The qazi sahab asked my husband the same question to him.
Qubool hai.
His qubool hai,s were quick. My heart raced as I heard his husky voice. The same voice I had heard in my dreams once.
I sighed the contract and so did he.
The partition between us was removed. I looked at him and my breath hitched.
I looked at him through my wail. He stood up and walked towards me. He extracted his hand which I took nervously. A familiar warmth filled my heart. I looked up and he uplifted my wail from my face.
My breath hitched once I looked at him.
He was the same guy I had seen in my dreams once, his eyes filled with love, his complexion was fair just like I had seen him in my previous dream. His slight beard. He let out an adorable smile and my heart skipped a beat.
He moved towards me and I closed my eyes. His beard was scratchy against my soft skin. His hot breath curled into my ear as he whispered.
Relax. I won't let anything happen to you. I'll always protect you.
His lips touched my ear as he whispered these words.
Kya tum mujhe humesha protect karoge?
I found myself whispering against his slightly bearded Cheek.
Haan
He said. He moved back and I found honesty in his eyes with lots of love.
But then I was woken from this beautiful dream.
WHY??????
Just saw him again in my dreams.
Okay okay. I'm sounding like a love sick now for such a person I don't know exists or not
