*Ring Ceremony*

"Are you okay?" Dad asked me as we ride back home. I nodded slowly and shake my head lightly to clear my mind with everything that happened.

"Are you sure? I mean you seem quiet since you get back talking to Shehry." I know Mom would know, but I am not ready to talk and I have to think about it.

"Did he say something to make you upset?" Dad asked me sternly. I quickly shake my head and my face turned red when Mom grinned at my reaction.

"No. I just want some time to think about this proposal. I will tell you my decision tomorrow." I told them. They nodded slowly.

When we reach home, we get into the house. Mom and Dad went in their room and I went upstairs in mine. I sigh as I step in my room. I quickly take off my hijab and fall in bed with my face on the pillow and scream loudly as I can. I wanted to do it since Shehryaar indirectly say he loves me. I just want to scream in excitement. I don't really know why I said I want to think when I want to be with him forever.

'I will tell my parents about my decision tomorrow.' I promised to myself.

"Assalam-o-Alaikum." I give my Salam as I walk in the dining room. Everyone give me their blessing before we start eating breakfast.

"What is with that smile on your face?" Saim asked as he notices my smile that I tried to hide it. I looked up at him with a frown, trying to calm down as everyone turned to me.

"W-what smile?" I stuttered it out, but groaned mentally when everyone smirk at me.

"Is it about last night?" Nadia interrupted before I could defend myself. I looked at her surprised and start shaking my head. I lowered my head and hide it in my hands as everyone laugh at my reaction.

"Enough teasing her." I heard Dad's stern voice, but I could feel laugh in his voice. I peak him through my fingers and saw him controlling his laugh. I take my face out and a pout from my lips, which making him laugh with everyone else. I slowly get back to eating my breakfast and saw as everyone laugh like crazy.

"Are you all done?" I asked them as they finally calm down. They nodded with a smirk. I rolled my eyes at Saim who continue to give me teasing looks. "I have to say something."

"What? Is it about that proposal?" Mom asked quickly. I nodded nervously.

"Yeah."

"Do you like him?" Dad asked me softly. I looked at him nervously and was about to answer him, but Saim beat me.

"She loves him." I glared at him and saw Dad giving me a teasing smile.

"I just wanted to say, I am ready because I know whatever you all decide will be best for me." I told him honestly. Dad smiled at me softly and lightly put his hand on my head and nodded.

"We will call them today and tell your decision." Mom says smiling. I smiled back and finish my breakfast as they started to talk about preparations.

"What the hell I am listening? You are getting married?" I looked up and saw as Misha sit on a chair in front of me. I smile and give me Salam before taking a sleeping Aahil from her.

"I am." I told her and saw as she looked at me clearly not happy. "To Shehryaar." I saw as a happy smile take over her face with a surprised look. We looked up as a waitress stop at our table and we give her our order.
