"Okay.. okay.. at least enjoy your fake and agreement wedding, its worth it.."

"Azhaar?!"
Faraz screams like a maniac, bursting into my chamber as I just got ready for the Henna ceremony and I don't even know why my presence is important.. I am not the one who's applying the Henna but anyways..
"Stop screaming!"
I say him to which he chuckles and says.
"Then you..stop being late, you are literally getting dressed for almost an hour now.."
"Whatever.."
I mumble before looking at the mirror for the last time, turing around and I walk down to the main hall where the ceremony is held.
