Waiting For Your Love

the tiring preparation

Days flew by with all the preparations and shopping became a daily routine.Though only dresses are to be bought then also i was feeling like my head and leg is going to give away anytime.''Never thought marriage requires this much labour''i said to ma.''well antthing which requires moving is a labour for you''my brother teased.I only rolled my eyes to this.....too tired to fight with him.

Seeing my state my brother brought a glass of juice for me.''ohoooo brotherly love''teased bhabhi.''Don't be jealous wifey..and you my dear sister this is just once in a while thing dont you get used to such treatment''he cheekily warned.''Aaas if''me and bhabhi said in unison and laughed.

Ma and papa came and sat with us.It was like any other evening with we having snacks and tea.I will really miss all this my family's love and all.I will always miss my brothers teasing ..my ma's  care...bhabhi's friendship..and especially my papa i love him a lot and vice versa.You can say i am a daddy's girl.I tuned into conversation when i heard my mother calling me.''Luzaina did you buy matching jewellery for your lehnga??''she asked.''Yes ammi we bought today only but it required some polishing so it will be delivered tomorrow''bhabhi replied excitedly for me.My brother and papa chuckled seeing her enthusiasm.We all stared at them''girls and shopping ya allah''sighed my bhai.we three just rolled our eyes at them.

There was only two

days left for the wedding and everyone was busy with the last minute preparation.I was literally on room arrest.My mothers order to not move here and there and rest.She was very stressed.I told her to relax but she didn't listen.So here i am sitting in my room alone.Finally some alone time as i was surrounded by my cousins and aun5s who came yesterday for my wedding.They left to see the gifts that we bought.It was past 11 at night.I heard a knock and then my papa came and sat beside me. ''How are you  feeling beta??''he asked.''You should look after yourself after two days we will not be there to nag you for being careless about my health''he added.I smiled always the caring dad..oh how much i will miss him''I will miss you so much papa''i cried and hugged him.He patted my back and caressed my head.I felt a tear drop on my forehead and saw that he was also getting emotional.After that he wiped my tears and smiled ''I love u beta''he kissed my forehead.He then advised me to be patient and always have trust in allah.And if i ever have any problem i can always share it with him..he will always be there for me.After that he left.

Finally the day of my wedding arrived.Everyone was in hurry.I was in my room waiting for beautician to come.After i prayed asr salah.. beautician came.She asked me have my  special bath that consisted of various types of oil and allah knows what other things.After bath she started doing my makeup and other usuals.After what felt like hours she was finished.She asked me to wear my lehnga.I wore my lehnga wnd she adjusted it in sone style.

Now i was ready and it was almost maghrib salah time.Nikah was after maghrib.''Beta are you ready''mama asked entering the room with my bhabhi.''Mashallah!! u luking so beautiful beta''she said with tears in her eyes.Everyone became emotional and hugged me includingpapa and bhai who entered after them.''Beta are you ready imam came for your consent''asked papa.I nodded my head.After that imam came and asked ''do you Luzaina Fatima daughter of Mr Suleman Ahmad accepted Mohammad Faraz as your husband''.I nodded then said Qubool hai three times.I signed some papers which papa took with him to masjid where the same will be asked to Faraz.
