Maha's POV
I rarely post on social media but the pictures from Tahira's cousin's holud ceremony had come out too good to not be shared.
Scrolling through the pictures on my camera roll, I selected some of me and Tahira together and another one with Zamar who I had unexpectedly met at the event.
Then I posted these clicks on my account's story along with a few shots of the decoration and the food. The last post was a picture of me in a floor length rose gold lehenga. The dress had a bodice made of glittery jewels attached to a flowy rose-gold skirt which had tiny pink roses scattered all over.
I checked the notifications and grinned when I saw Isahaq had pressed the “heart” reaction on my story. Giddiness flowed through my veins and I took a screenshot of this to save for the future.
Another notification bubbled up from Isahaq and I saw he had texted me.
Isahaq -
You're having Biryani without me? :(
P.S. Zamar told me he met you at his friend's holud
Maha -
Haha yes the picture is from a few days ago. The bride is my best friend's cousin. I am going to their wedding tonight
Isahaq-
More Biryani? I'm jealous!
Maha-
Who's stopping you from crashing the wedding uninvited and having the food? 👀
Though I'm sure Tahira wouldn't mind extra guests coming over
Isahaq-
As much as I want to, such risky acts don’t always end well
Maha-
You seem to be speaking from experience
Isahaq -
Zamar might have convinced me to do something similar in the past. But before you judge me - we had left a gift for the couple in exchange for the food
Maha-
woah you guys actually went to a wedding uninvited?! That's crazy! I'm impressed lol. Though with the amount of guests in Desi weddings it's difficult to know if someone has snuck in
Isahaq -
Precisely how we managed to pull that act haha, anyways whatcha doing?
Maha-
Waiting for the parlor lady to arrive so she can apply mehendi on my hand
Isahaq-
Oh- why so much trouble, you could have asked my sister to do it for you
Maha-
I don't want to bother her with something so silly
Isahaq -
Pfft Yashra’s just lazing around at our house anyway. She seems to be home more than she's at her in-laws lol. You can come over whenever you want, she's free most of the time.
Maha-
I'll keep that in mind XD
Though I'm thinking about learning how to apply mehendi myself
Isahaq -
Great she can help you with that too
A surprised smile took over my face as I read his texts. Is he discreetly asking me to come over at their house ?
Maha-
Okay, I'll drop by sometime
Isahaq -
Yay (:
