A GOOD SACRIFICE

Chapter10: Mehndi

ANABIA'S POV:

I woke-up with a twitch in my neck because I have been sleeping on a chair . it was a long night .

I woke up and saw the time on my mobile .

"oh shit ! " I said jumping .

"it is very late and I have also missed fajar " I said tearing up .

I went in the backyard to open the dogs but what I saw was ???

Mohid was sleeping on the bench with duke and diva on him.

I giggled went near him and picked up duke and diva .

Suddenly , he got up . I was going away shyly when caught my wrist .

I turned and greeted him .

"good morning " I said .

" good morning ! why didn't you wake me ? " he said leaving me .

" I - - I - -w - s " I stammered .

"lets go " he said .

As we went inside we looked at each other .

The house was a mess . everyone was roaming here and there .

"where were you bia and mohid ?" ahmed uncle said .

" where did you sleep ?" sania aunty asked .

" LAWN " and " BACKYARD " we both said in unison . everyone was laughing . we were embarrassed .

MOHID'S POV :

I felt some weight decreasing on me . I opened my eyes and saw the beautiful face of anabia .

As she was going away quietly I got hold of her wrist . she was trying to get free so I freed her . we went inside it was a disaster .

As we both didn't got any place to sleep so she slept in lawn and I in backyard. Everyone laughed on our choices and we both stood there embarrassed .

We went into our rooms . me and anabia were forced to take 5 days leave , so we were home .

ANABIA'S POV:

As our wedding ceremonies were started . today was our mehndi . I was sitting in my room when "mom" called ' come down .'

I pushed my things aside . I went down akira pushe me on the couch and mohid was already there .

" why did you brought me here ? " I said

" we have to do a tradition followed by our ancestors " aunt sania said .

We both were given a pair of leaf . our hands were up and down .

Mom and aunty were continuously doing something .

"come on now apply henna on my daughters hand " mom said .

Some girls came and started applying mehndi .

" no need of this mom" I said getting rid .

"it is necessary " mom said . our siblings were dancing . as mohid has to sit with me . I was so tired . my hands were paining . I needed to rest .

Suddenly , I felt someone holding my hands . it was mohid . he knew my arms were paining . awwwwwww ... I said "thanks".

MOHID'S POV :

I had to sit their as a necessity . I had a feeling that she was getting tired .

I held her hands . she thanked me and I smiled .
