Soon after, the family set out with a wedding proposal, eager to meet Yarfa again. For Alex, this meeting wasn't just about tradition-it was about finding someone who made him feel alive, someone who brought out the best in him. And he was confident that Yarfa was that person.

The day of Alex's family visit arrived quickly. Yarfa, always the confident and independent girl, found herself feeling nervous for the first time in years. She never cared much about marriage, and the thought of it used to make her cringe. But today was different. She had met Alex, and something inside her stirred at the memory of their brief but intriguing conversation. Still, she wasn't ready for this.

Yarfa's close friend, Zara , noticed her hesitation and couldn't stop teasing her. "Dekho Yarfa, finally tumhari shadi ka waqt aagaya," (Look, Yarfa, the time for your wedding has finally come), Zara laughed, playfully nudging her. "Tum toh kehti thi tumhe shadi mein koi interest nahi hai, aur ab dekho... Itne handsome ladke se shaadi hone wali hai!" (You used to say you have no interest in marriage, and now look! You're going to marry such a handsome guy!)

Yarfa tried to push the thought away, but deep down, she couldn't help but agree. She had always secretly dreamed of having a boyfriend who was strong, dangerous, and protective-a mafia type. She knew it was a silly fantasy, but the thought still thrilled her. And now, Alex-who carried himself with such confidence and charm-was coming to her home.

Her aunt, who was also there to help with the preparations, couldn't stop talking about Alex. "Yarfa, beta, itna handsome ladka toh kabhi dekha nahi maine," (Yarfa, dear, I've never seen such a handsome boy). She sighed dramatically, "Aise ladke toh bohot rare hote hain. Tumhe isse accha rishta nahi milega." (Boys like him are so rare. You won't get a better match than this.)

Yarfa blushed😁 at her aunt's words but still didn't know what to think. Am I really ready for this? she thought, feeling a little overwhelmed as the house bustled with activity. Everyone was getting ready for the big meeting. The house was cleaned and decorated with soft lights and flowers. It was almost like a small wedding day.
