Jassmin POV

After praying, i went to the nearest park to relax myself.  I checked my phone and saw messages from Aisha.  The first message was:

" Jassmin where are you? Are you okay ?" followed by

"Jassmin Reply, i am sacred. Are you okay ? The doctor say uncle will be discharged tomorrow evening. Where are you?  I want to talk to you. Call me you idiot!"

Wow such a good friend i have. I called her immediately. She picked up on the third ring.

"Assalamakalium Aisha"

"WAALAIKUM SALAM YOU IDOIT ! WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU ? WHY DIDN'T YOU ANSWER MY CALLS? she shouted on the phone.

"Don't shout at me aisha, i am alright. I was praying just now  and for your info I am at this park behind the  mosque."i told her back angrily. She just don't understand the situation i am in.

Aisha POV

As jassmin told me where she was i quickly made my way there. This stupid girl really made me worried. I reached the park where jassmin told me and saw her sitting near a pond. I walked and sat beside her and heard her crying. I look at her teary eyes. It has so much pain in it.

"Jassmin, i am sorry for shouting at you just now. I was just worried about you. I can understand the pain that you are going through. But Jassmin, think about your family especially your dad.  Maybe Yusuf was not meant to be in your life. Take this as Allah's plan. I dont have to say much about my brother Amin , you know him much better than me. "

"I don't know what to do... I am confused and lost..." with that she hugged me and cried i felt bad for her.

"Jassmin, the doctor say that your father can be discharged from hospital tomorrow evening. Do you want to go back to see your dad?"

"Yes Aisha let's leave." She told me and with that we went back to the hospital.

Jassmin POV

We walked towards the hospital. I saw Amin outside the room. I went into the room and saw my mum lying on his chest. The moment my dad saw me he told me to sit next to him.

" Dad, how are you feeling?"

"Alhamduilah, i am better ma. Jassmin we were thinking of having the nikkah the day after tomorrow. You okay with it? Remember we are not forcing you but we know what is the best for you."  My dad told me.

"Okay dad, ya i know you and mum always choose the best for me."

I saw my parents being happy with my decision and my dad kissed me on my forehead. This is enough for me. My parent's happiness is important to me .

Amin POV

After reaching home my mum told me that the nikkah is in two days time. Everything is happening too fast. So many things has happened in this one week.  I have never imagined that i will get married to Jassmin in this situation. I will have to take care of her soon, i need to make sure that she feel safe and loved by me . Although i am not sure if she loves me, she needs to feel safe and loved by me .

One day later....

Jassmin POV

Tonight is my mehandi (Henna) function held at my place, my cousin and relatives came. There was a group of girls that we invited to draw henna on our hands. Since i am the bride, i had the professional person and she showed me the henna booklet filled with designs. I was in no mood to choose the design although  i know i should be excited but i am not. I am doing this for my parents. Just then i saw Aisha and her mum came.

"Why does the bride looks so sad? Isn't she suppose to be happy?" My aunty asked. That's the reason why i hate having  my relatives over at my place because all they are good at is finding fault.

"No, Jassmin is tired i guess probably because we have been busy going out to buy wedding dress. " My mum answered politely.

"Where is the nikkah held?" asks my aunty.

"It will be in the mosque after asr prayers." answered my mother in law (aisha's mum).

So my life is moving to the next stage tomorrow. I am going to be a daughter- in -law for aisha's family. And i am not sure if i am even ready for it.

 I  am so sorry guys for not updating earlier. Like i said i was having some personal problems. So  what do you guys think ?
