One year later..

Nova

The morning didn't feel real. It felt... quiet.

Not the kind of quiet that comes with stillness or nerves, but the kind that arrives just before something beautiful. Like the hush right before a song starts. Or when a seed breaks open, and the soil doesn't even know it yet.

I stood barefoot in the garden just after sunrise, robe wrapped tight around me, the morning dew cooling my toes. The ceremony space was still unfinished. Chairs were still being draped, tables still adjusted, napkins still folded. But the flowers had arrived.

Nasrin was already there.

My older cousin from my mom's side, was bent over a cluster of wild jasmine near the altar, clipping stems and adjusting vines with her fingers like they were an extension of her thoughts. She'd been up for hours I could tell.

"Couldn't sleep?" she asked without looking.

"Nope," I said softly.

"Good. Dreams can't top this anyway."

I smiled and looked around. She was right.

She'd turned the clearing into something close to magic. Not artificial beauty or stiff arrangements and glossy rentals, but wild beauty. Vines curled naturally around the wooden arch. Leaves in green and gold draped the back of every seat. White wildflowers bloomed like they'd chosen to grow here just for us.
