hadiya pov~
Everyone was gathered in the hall, my cousins and friends as well as sufiyan's friends and cousins. Everyone was chit chatting when sufiyan called me in the kitchen
"Ji?" (Yes) I asked
"Can you help me serve all of these in the bowl as it's the ritual here that the bride will serve everything in the bowl and the husband will serve the guest" he explained while stirring something in the pot
"Oh sure no problem" i said and place the bowls on the tray, and looked over him to see what he's cooking "what are you cooking"
"Mahalabia"
"Didn't ask for your ex's name doctor sahab"
He let out a light chuckle "mahalabia, sharik e hayat. Mahalabia. Baba used to cook it for ummi" he turned around and hold my hand "and that's why I'm cooking it for yo-"
Someone clear their throat from behind and i startled a bit but sufiyan hold my hand carefully and looked behind, it was his friends
One giggled and the other one said "tryna romance~? c'mon, you two had enough time last night. Everyone's hungry outside your romance can wait but hadi can't" he said looking at the other guy
"Yeah we're just trying to..." Sufiyan sigh "but none is letting us do anythi-" he was speaking and i hit him from behind, he looked at me and chuckled. "You two go out we'll be there in a moment" he said
"Yeah sure just don't get lost in each others eyes again~" he said and they both left
"What kind of friends you have? no haya at all!!" i roll my eyes
"He's not Muslim nor Indian, he don't know what haya is" he chuckled
"Whatever, is this how you talk in front of a couple? I don't think so"
"Okay okay I'll scold him next time-"
"So you'll wait till next time?" I raise an eyebrow
"Allahu Akbar! You're impossible!" He deeply sigh
"It's just the beginning of our love life Dr sufiyan " i chuckle
"Love what?" He asked
"One sided love life" I corrected
"Better than a lie"
"Now shall we go?" I asked and he placed the bowls on the tray and hand it to me and walked out, i followed him and served everyone. We both also sat on the couch and everyone was chit chatting and laughing. I got up to bring the food to the table, this time diya and Maryam came along with me to the kitchen. They both stopped me and asked in union "did you see the gift???"
"What gift?" I asked with my eyebrow raised
"The gift!!" They both said in union again
"Ouf what gift girls?" I walked past them and start serving food in the bowls, and they both looked at each other and shake their head.
"Girls don't just stand there. help me, c'mon!" I said
No one's pov~
"smash" , "Mashallah" darek and Hadi said in union as diya and Maryam was walking out of the kitchen, hadi looked at darek confused and shake his head "what? What did you just said?" Hadi asked darek who was gazing at one of the girl who was coming out of the kitchen. He looked at hadi and said
"Wh- n- nothing? I was just- l-looking at the food, never seen something like that" he said nodding
"Food. Sure. Yeah. I absolutely believe you bro" Hadi said and tapped his back, darek looked away.
Everyone sat on the table eating and having a good time
"Sister, do you know one time your husband thought a patient is dead but he was on anesthesia and was about to-" hadi was talking when sufiyan cleared his throat
"What hadi? He was?.." hadiya said knowing well that this is something embarrassing for sufiyan. Soon she felt sufiyan's warm palm on her thigh giving her a light squeeze to make her stop asking, she slightly gasp and flatter her eyelashes to regain her focus and tried to remove his hand but his grip got firm but not hurtful
"Yeah so lemme tell you what happened during our 4 year when we met" Aaron said smirking at sufiyan, "he bumped into a girl who was my gf at that time and she accused him for stalking her, like seriously! She was so minimal i swear to god. Not even that pretty. But sufiyan's gaze was on the floor all the time. That's when I first saw him and got inspired by his ass- sorry" he looked around at his tongue slip "but the good thing is he was forever loyal to you that he didn't even looked up" he completed and everyone let out a small chuckle
"Forever loyal huh" hadiya said in a soft tone while looking at sufiyan, sufiyan smiled and said "always sharik e hayat" he gently squeeze her thigh and she leans just a bit closer to him "if you squeeze my thigh once again. I'd be forced to choose violence" she said with gritting teeth to which sufiyan revealed a big smile. Then hadi cleared his throat. As they both turn towards everyone, Everyone was looking at them already. Hadiya and sufiyan start eating quietly soon the day come to an end and sufiyan had to bid a goodbye to hadiya
"I don't get all these rituals, like cmon! We just get married and now you're leaving!? Already?! Seriously? This is unacceptable" sufiyan said sitting on his bed crossing his arms on his chest, whining like a kid. To which hadiya giggles and he got up from the bed and walked towards her where she was looking for something in the closet, he grabbed her arm and turned her to face him
"What's so funny? Huh? What's so funny? We haven't even had our the 'Perfect' night yesterday and here you're already leaving, AGAIN!" his grip wasn't harsh but it was firm
"What perfect night?" Hadiya raised her eyebrows, sufiyan rolled his eyes and release her wrist
"Yeah yeah, act all innocent and saint like a kid "
"You're the one acting like a kid, sir" she rolled her eyes
"Aye! Don't you roll your eyes on me" he said pointing at her with his index finger and leaning close, she grabbed his finger and twist it
"Huh? What? Are you trying to threaten me? Huh" she raised her eyebrows and small smirk appears on her face
"Ou- ou- stop stop!" Sufiyan almost
"Oh no no, I haven't even started it yet" she said with a small smirk clearly enjoying everything
"Ok ok sorry sorry, sharik e hayat. I take it back. Just ... please ah- ou- please" he said squirming under her grip and she let go of his finger
"Fine" she rolled her eyes "only because you asked so nicely" she sigh and stepped aside. "now get out of my way Dr sahab" she said and sufiyan was still rubbing his finger but did as she said and mumble something under his breath. She grabbed her clothes and walked into the bathroom to change. As sufiyan sat on the bed an idea pop up in his mind and he walked towards the bathroom door and said
"Um..you know sharik e hayat. I can always give you company...a nice one. Indeed" he said with a proud smile but hadiya didn't bothered to reply.
She came out and look at him up and down
"Nice company, huh?" She raised one of her eyebrow
"Are you going to twist my finger again?" He stepped back
"I might" she said and walked towards the vanity. As she sat. Her hijab fall off a bit from her head which revealed a bit of her hair. It was the first time sufiyan saw her hair. His eyes go wide and he was looking at her in awe, he walked towards her, suddenly he felt his throat dry and words doesn't seem to come out and softly place his hands on her shoulder and turns her towards him, there was pure love and tenderness in his eyes in the end he only managed to say three word with much sweetness "hadiya sufiyan rehman"
SOOO... YEAH. PLEASE VOTE
LOVE Y'ALL
ALLAH HAFIZ
