Chapter 12.

Tu ban ja mera saanware,

Main ban gaya tera jogiya

Author's POV:

Today was the their engagement and their relationship would be announced to the world. Their engagement was a much anticipated event not just by Zoya and Zaviyar, but also by their friends and family. The preparations took place beforehand, making everything perfect, according to the couple's preference. Zoya was getting ready while her friends were continuously teasing her, making her glare at them almost every two minutes. 

At last, once she was done with her hair and makeup, the stylist and her friends helped her get into the huge engagement dress, which was breathtakingly beautiful. It had all sorts of rhinestones, with delicate pink handwork on the borders and sleeves. Pairing it with a set of diamond earrings and necklace, her hair styled in waves, she looked like a real life princess, ready to meet her prince. 

"Aaj toh Zaviyar gaya," Dania smirked at her helpless best friend.

(Zaviyar's gone today)

"Chup! Aur jao dekho nikalna kab hai," Zoya rolled her eyes, controlling the blush that was creeping upon her face

(Shush! Go and check when do we have to leave) 

"Righhht! What's the hurry by the way?" Zoya was about to throw the nearby vase at her friend, who hurriedly ran out of the room, leaving behind a laughing Zoya and Zavrina.

Zaviyar's Room

He was getting ready in his embroidered pink kurta, while his friends constantly annoyed him. What was worse, was that his cousins also came last night, making it more difficult for Zaviyar to do anything. 

"I never thought this hulk could get married," Affan, Zaviyar's cousin jumped on the bed, grabbing the popcorn from the side as the cousins watched the show unfold. Zaviyar, who was always the most emotionless one, who always had the most confidence in himself, was nervous today when it was his own engagement. It was truly a sight to witness.

"Fawad, ja kar dekh baba ready hein, aur ring kahan hai," Fawad nodded and left the room.

(Fawad, go and check if dad's ready, and where the ring is) 

"Mhm..." Varis, another cousin of his smirked at him while Zaviyar threw at him the cushion from the sofa, who caught it and stuck his tongue out at him.

Ten black cars, all in one line, moved in sync towards the engagement venue, while from the other side, seven white cars moved towards the entrace. Zoya and Zaviyar's heartbeats increased every second. They couldn't believe it was their engagement day. Finally after what felt like forever, they had found true love and the peace they had yearned for from a long time.

Zoya was taken into the bridal room by her friends and cousins, not giving Zaviyar the chance to even catch a glimpse of her. His friends and cousins, along with his father, noticed the way he looked continuously towards the white cars, hoping to catch a glimpse of her. All of them whistled in sync, making Zaviyar look at all of them with a 'I'm done' look on his face, which all of them responded to with winks. 

The groom's side settled inside the hall and the boys spread out on the stage, making it difficult for the girls to enjoy. 

Zavrina, who was trying to take pictures, stumbled into Fawad, which made the drink in his hand spill all over her dress. She groaned in frustration and looked up at Fawad, who was stunned for a minute seeing her beuaty.
