Chapter 2

Joyous a simple word to express utter delight excitement residing in everyones heart as they prepared themselves for very new beginning of a newly added chapters of their lives, her cousin the eldest daughter of family from maternal side was getting successful engaged welcoming a new fold happiness in her life.

Petite girl with short hairs reaching her few inches below her shoulders, leaning her head towards left as her hands busy hooking the earings, clad in white shining suit with sharara reaching her ankles, stood facing the mirror looking enchantress, with perfect shaped natural eyebrows, her brown orbs, curled eye lashes her make up enhanced her features, she was indeed a pretty creation of god. Her mind indulge in deep thoughts getting her vision blur with water, 'we grew up too  fast in the blink of an eye', her last thought appeared making tears trailed down to her pale cheeks adorned with blush and glitter making its way down towards deep neck of her suit and later disappearing into it.

"Naaz! How much more time you require?",Asiya questions with annoyance plastered on her face, on reaching the door of the room.

"Ya rabbul-izzat! Asiya please just go...!",Nazia said with obnoxious expression. Clearing her tears with back of her hand.
Asiya came from behind taking the earing in her hand she tucked it properly. While Nazia stood composing herself together.
'sisters perceive you like back of their hand'.
She gaze at asiya fixing her dress as graceful smile graced her features.

"Let's go now, ma'am", Nazia responded with a wide grin.
They both made their way towards the drawing room where their parents were waiting for them to arrive.

The eldest most crucified child the scrutiny of sight inspecting their every aspect of life making them conscious of themselves for perfection that wasn't supposed to be achieved , perfection wasn't supposed to be part of human race and perfection that was beyond perfection itself.

Nazia's father frowned at her mother.
"What the need of this much make over?",he enquired to her mother Saima.
"Papa please!, I don't want to argue please let get going",Nazia responded with slight ignorance in her tone.

"Nazia! Shut up,how dare disrespect him",her mother raged at her.

"I-",Nazia was cut short by her father's glare.

This was indeed her life full of unnecessary play, this has been her life from quite a while now, today her heart was contented to core as it was family function but nevertheless her life might never change but indeed a possibility of getting worse than before lingered on her head, the death sword lingering on her fate.

Her sole dream was to run far away....away from everyone, everything, every unnecessary attention and every unnecessary comment......
Where their will be no-one nothing just herself and her lord...
Her lord who never questions her intentions......
Will wait for her always....
Call her towards himself....

As the car swayed with pace upon the road, breeze was caressed her cubby cheeks, the night was about to fall, breeze was getting slightly chilly.

'ya rabb what if I also lost? I can't afford to lose this one chance, I don't want to end up resembling so many of broken women'
Her eyes were filled with tears, her heart was tearing apart just by mere thought of losing , unaware of dreadful and tough trails waiting upon her arrival.

'ya Allah! Please have mercy I-I implore upon your aid, help me my Lord the Lord of all world's, ya Allah want to free....like a bird travel with flowing rivers and talking with air.....and one day reach Thyself reach my destination.........I feel caged by boundaries...'

After a while the car came to halt infront of wedding hall and with that her thoughts too were halted. Everyone came down and made their way inside the building.
