PYAR TO HONA HI THA

NIKAAH

Meesha's POV:

It was already 8 in the morning and in two hours i was going to be Mrs.Ali. The thought of Mrs. Ali brought tears in my eyes and I couldn't stop crying. 

Papa: Meesha beta, Why are you crying?

Papa, I only have few days left with you. I am going to miss you a lot and today my name will change. I started weeping very badly.

Papa: (also crying) Who said you are going away? You will always be with me in my heart and whenever you feel like meeting me, just come. This was your home and will always remain.

Meesha hugs her Papa 

I love you so much Papa

Papa: Okay enough now. Quickly get dressed. Imam and Ali are already downstairs. We have to start the ceremony.

Meesha says while still crying. Yes Papa!

As soon as Papa headed out of the room, I wept even more badly as i was going to miss him a lot. I saw the white salwar kameez (Pakistani Dress) lying on my bed with a red dupatta (veil). I dressed up and covered my face with the red dupatta and sat down on my bed waiting for the ceremony to commence. I heard the door knob and papa came in with the Imam who was supposed to conduct my nikaah. Bua (Father's Sister) came and sat next to me. After a few minutes, the ceremony started and duas were being said. Meesha Khan d/o Faris Khan, aapka nikaah Ali Khan s/o Salim khan se karwaya jata hai, kya aapko kabool hai (Meesha Khan d/o Faris Khan, your nikaah is solemnized with Ali Khan s/o Salim Khan, do you accept it?), the Imam asked. Tears rolled down my cheeks and I was shivering. Bua reminded me that I had to answer. Kabool Hai (I accept), I answered. Imam asked me the same question twice and I said the same thing, Kabool Hai. I signed the papers. I couldn't stop crying thinking that now I am Mrs. Ali. Bua hugged me tightly as she was too happy for me. After my nikaah, papa went downstairs with the Imam to get Ali's signature and consent. He also signed and said Kabool Hai. Now we were one and committed. After a few minutes bua came to my room and took me downstairs with her where Ali was sitting on the Sofa and all my relatives were congratulating him one by one. Ali stood up and bua made me stand next to him and lifted my veil. Photo Session started with all family members. Ali only had his friends by him. After the photo session, Bua brought kheer (Asian Sweet dish) and fed the first spoon to me and then Ali. Everyone started pulling Ali's leg, that now he is a married man and will dance on his wife's tunes. I was getting irritated and wanted everything to end soon. We all had dinner and after that Ali left with his friends. Still I hadn't spoken to Ali. I went to sleep as I was too late and tomorrow was my Mayon (Pre-wedding event) function.
