Two months later...

"Less than a month is left for the wedding and we still haven't started the shopping?!" My mother said as she sit down one the sofa beside Jahida bhua.

"You are right!! We don't have much time left but have so many things to do!!" Jahida bhua agreed with my mother.

We are at heena's house for heena and aabid's wedding planning. As my mother said less than a month is left so the ladies of family are making the lists of the clothes, jewellery and all the other important stuff that needed for heena and her marriage.

"Make the list of the jewellery first and call the jeweller so he can bring the jewellery then we will select with our choice!!" My grandma order drinking her tea from her own personal big cup. Thats right my grandmother have her own cup that no one can use it except her.

I look at heena she is totally not interested in this so she give me 'lets go away from this' look. We came in heena's room. I took two sandwiches and a cup of coffee from the kitchen

"Godd!! It's so torturing!!" Heena sighed as she lay down on the bed

"Well, honey you knew its coming for you!!" I said taking a big bite of my cheese sandwich that jahida bhua made for me earlier. Umm its good

"Yeah but it's not easy when it's all happening in real!! I mean only days have left but i still can't imagine myself with aabid and our marriage!!" She sounded really worried and confused.

"Look, Heena i know its hard for you but i think now it's time for you and farhan to brea-" i said my mouthful but my phone ring! I stop talking to check on who's calling and it was so shocking to see it's Faiz. I cut the call and put my phone on silent mode.

"Who is it??" Heena asked looking at me.

"No one! I mean, its just company calling no one important!!" I replied placing my phone down on the table.

Why Faiz is calling me?? Its his third call in last 7 days i guess and he texted me once too. What is happening? I haven't talk to him since our last clash at the farmhouse.

After that night next morning he went back to his college from the farmhouse. He did not came home with us he went back straight from the farmhouse saying he got call from his college and he gotta leave soon. we came home two days after he left. I knew he was laying!!

Why is he calling me now?? I don't want to talk to him he accused me of something i never did and didn't even give me a chance to speak. He is such a arrogant, rude, full of ego and stupid guy. Monster

"Hey, what are you thinking about??!" Heena asked me

"Nothing!! Um-I Ju-Just about your wedding!!" I lied to her.

As we were talking we heard car horn honking! "I think salman and sartaj are here!!" We both went outside excitingly. So the boys are here for the wedding now family is gonna be together since only few days have left for the wedding so

"Hello girls!!" Salman greeted us as he step out of the car. He looks tired and wants to sleep i can tell by the look on his face. "I'm going home to take shower! I'll see you guys later!!" Salman said and left for our house which in 2 minutes walk from heena's house

"Look who's here?! Our beautiful soon to be bride!!" Sartaj cheered and places his left hand on heena's shoulder and right hand on mine.

"You didn't bring your 'wedding date' with you?!" I teased him as we walk together

"Well, girls you know i had too many choices and it was hard to choose one so!!" Sartaj replied with his charming smile

"Then you should have thrown a 'swayamvar'!!" Heena said in mockery me and heena laugh
