"I love her so much, It physically pains me to imagine a life without her, I feel like I won't survive a single second, without her. I feel I am drowning and only she could save me, But here I am, drowning without her, and she'...

I step back in shock, my lips part open. "M-marriage? Tonight? What are you talking about?"
Mahib opens the passenger side door. "Get in first."
I close the door silently because Noor was still fast asleep at the back. "I need explanation first."
He sighs. "And I have given it to you. We. Are. Getting. Married. On the night of July second, 2015. Which is today, there, did you understood?" He opens the door again. "Now, get in."
"And where is my permission in it?" I fold my arms. "Did you asked me if I want to get married?"
"Do you not?"
"I do, but—" I raise my hands.
"There is the answer." He says.
"Will you let me say anything?"
"If you are going to deny, then no."
I fold my arms. "Mahib, I never said no. All of this is so sudden. What about our friends and family? We can't marry without all of them."
He takes out his phone and types something and tucks it back in his pocket. "Done. They should be on their way."
"You can't tell them about our marriage on a text!" I gape at him in shock. What is wrong with him today?
"Manar." He taps his fingers on the closed car door, "This is not an impulsive decision. I have been planning this for a long time and everyone around us are aware except for you."
My mouth hangs open. "Since when?"
"Like I said a long time, but I had to fasten the process since I regained my memories." He takes a breath. "Manar, we have been separated for way too long, I can't wait any longer. I don't want to wait any longer with the fear that one day you and Noor would disappear and I would be left alone like before."
My eyes softens. "I would never leave you."
"Then what was this?" He points at Noor. "You took Noor, gave the apartment keys to the reception and left through the back door with a suitcase?"
I look at him for a beat and a laugh bubbles inside me. I slam my hand to my mouth to stop the laugh but I couldn't, and I start laughing loudly.
"What's funny?" Mahib asks confused.
"You thought I was leaving?" I laugh, "Mahib, Eman invited me for a girls night at the farmhouse, did you not recognise the way to your own farmhouse? And I always keep my keys by the reception because once I had forgotten them in office so I keep doing that for nearly two weeks now, and as for leaving from the back door, I didn't want your security intels to tell you about it, but they did."
It was comical how Mahib blankly stared at me and blinked. "So you weren't leaving?"
