Then, my mum walked in. "Mashallah. You look amazing." she said, as she pressed a kiss onto my forehead. 

 "Thank you." I said, giving her a shy smile. 

We walked out of the room and were met with my dad. He looked at me and then began wiping his eyes. "Mashallah. My beautiful princess. You're so beautiful. I don't want to let you go." he said, coming closer to me and hugging me and then pressing a kiss to my forehead.

 "Thank you dad." I said, leaning into him. "I'll miss you so much." 

 "We'll miss you more." my dad said.

 "Come on, let's get going." my mum said.

 "Oh, wait mumma! Maryam and her family are coming." I said.

 "Oh yes. Forgot about that." my mum said. 

We walked out into the driveway and waited for everyone to meet us there. Then, they all began arriving, one by one, all my relatives began arriving. 

 "Surprisee!" Maryam said, hugging me. 

 "Oh, thank god you're here. I was wondering how long I was going to have to wait." I said, smiling.

 "You look so beautiful! Mashallah!" she said.
