**** girls and boys (if any ;p) whatever Maya stated in the previous chapter about mehram namehram and about coming in front of Hussain or Shehry, please take it as a verdict/ research of a newly converted person. I did not go to details because it wasn't my opinion it was Maya's who doesn't know anything about Islam yet, she is a struggler so her thoughts and opinions can be vague/ incorrect/ immature. 

28|b- Vengeance is Mine

Maya

The most beautiful veil I have ever seen in my life was the one in front of me, tied in between me and Hussain as we sat there waiting for the man with a long beard to start with our nikah. It felt strange sitting like that, becoming a bride was never my dream like a typical girl would do but today when I dressed up for my man and sat there in front of him it felt great, happiness my heart could feel but words could never explain.

"he will ask you first" Amna spoke in my ear as the beard man addressed me, a lump formed in my throat which I had to push down before uttering those words. Amna was sitting with me all that time, and when the man started to read out something I tried hard to comprehend but couldn't manage to grab all. Must be all the delicacies of this bond, this nikah.

"Kia ap ko qubool hea?" he was asking me. I felt Amna pressed my hand a little. My breathing was heavy and words felt even heavier.

"Qubool hai" my voice stuttered and then I repeated twice more, over the third and the last time unknowingly it felt easier to accept, my breaths, those heartbeats everything went calm all of a sudden.

He made me signature at a few places which I did, trying my best not to tremble.

The man turned his attention towards Hussain and repeated the same question. "Kia apko qubool hai?"

" Qubool hai" his voice eased the thumping heart inside my chest.

He hated me.... he loathed my existence and today here we are tied to each other.

"Kia apko qubool hai? He asked again

"Ji han mujhe quobol hai"

A miracle happening right in front of my eyes.

"Kia apko qubool hai?"

There was a moment of utter silence in the midst of which my heart was screaming. "Ji han mujhy qubool hai" Hussain spoke and a tear uninformed escaped my eye.

The old man started to recite the verses from the holy book Quran and I sat there, like all of them pulling my palms up for dua' no words uttered from my mouth, the lump was there once again and I just wanted to cry, dunno why.

"Mubarak ho!"

"Mubarak ho" the voices made me put my hands down and the next moment Amna embraced me. "Buhat buhat Mubarak ho" I smiled as I hugged her back and there came Maha's voice as she chirped in my ear hugging me tightly. "Am so happy"

"Me too" I confessed and she smiled warmly at me.

I felt the flower veil moved a little along with Shehry's voices about removing it and my heartbeats sped up again. I hadn't seen him for a few days and it felt like a whole life time since I last saw him or talked to him.

Suddenly the veil dropped down and he was there, right in front of me all serious and somber with his gaze firm upon my face. A smile slowly crept on to my lips as I lowered my gaze.
