ISHQ SUFIYANA

23|.

The day after the wedding, everyone woke up with excitement for the post-wedding rituals.

The family gathered around a large pot of milk with rose petals hidden with a ring. Just as the ceremony was about to start, Ishaan and Mrunali entered the house.

"We didn't want to miss this!" Ishaan said.

"Bohot acha kiya bacho, ajao betho," Mrs Sharma said warmly.

Rohan and Nirvi sat opposite each other, dipping their hands in the pot of milk filled with petals. The family cheered as they searched for the ring. Nirvi found the ring first after a playful struggle.

Later, Mrs. Sharma guided Nirvi to the kitchen for her Pehli Rasoi. "Nirvi, beta, make something sweet. The cooks have prepared the rest of the meal."

Nirvi nodded and made delicious halwa. 

After lunch, everyone sat together in the living area to taste the halwa.

"Bahut accha halwa banaya hai" Mr sharma said

"Bilkul perfect, Nirvi" Mrs Sharma said

"Bhabhi, it's so yummy!" Inaya said.

"Yes, Nirvi bhabhi!" Ishaan and Mrunali added. 

Rohan silently expressed that the halwa was yummy, making her smile.

After that, Mrs. Sharma gave Nirvi the kadaas that were given to her by her saas (mother-in-law). "Ye meri saas ne diye the mujhe, ab ye tumhare."

Mr. Sharma also gave her a small gold gift. Nirvi hesitated, glancing at Rohan for approval. He nodded, and she accepted the gifts. 

 "Thank you so much, this means a lot," Nirvi said smiling.

"And... I'll give you both your gift soon," Inaya said grinning.

Rohan and Nirvi exchanged surprised glances.

Few days later:

Inaya woke up to the gentle hum of her alarm clock. She stretched and opened her eyes, the morning sunlight filtering through the sheer curtains of her bedroom. Today was her first day at her father's company, and she wanted everything to be perfect. Feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness, she slipped out of bed and headed to the bathroom.

After a refreshing shower, she moved to her wardrobe and picked out an outfit: a white shirt and tailored navy trousers. She paired it with classic black heels and minimal jewellery. She styled her hair in loose waves and applied light makeup to enhance her natural features.

Inaya made her way downstairs to the dining area for breakfast. The aroma of fresh parathas filled the air, and she saw her father and brother already at the table.

"Good morning, papa, bhaiya," she greeted and sat at the dining table. 

"Good morning, beta," Mr Sharma replied. "Are you ready for your first day?" 

Inaya nodded and said, "Yes, Papa. I'm a bit nervous, but excited too." 

Rohan chuckled. "You'll do great, Inaya. Just be yourself."

Just then Mrs. Sharma joined them. "Good morning, Ma."

"Good morning, beta," Mrs. Sharma replied. "You look perfect."

"Thank you."

As everyone sat down for breakfast, Nirvi entered the room. "Good morning, everyone," Nirvi said, taking her seat next to Rohan.
