Previously on love? OR Politics?
Bending on his one knee, he took out a tiny red box...opening it revealed a simple yet elegant ring with his name engraved on the inside of the ring and a diamond placed on top of it shining brightly in all its glory.
"Will you marry me?"
..........
Continuing:
Her eyes went wide as saucers , blinking rapidly , mouth agape, she brought her hand upto her mouth and placed on it breathing heavily and her heart pounding rapidly in her chest as if demanding, pushing and slamming her chest to let it out this once. Thinking was it just today specifically or the time really seemed to have stopped moving forward.... making every thing along with it to come to a halt. She couldn't believe any of this not even this day to have its existence. It all seemed to her as a dream , a very pleasant and a breathtaking dream. If it wouldn't have been for Sohail to jerk her up a little she wouldn't have come out of her reverie.
"Say something? ...."
But how could she say something.... she forgot how to speak all of a sudden, words begging her tongue to let them out of her mouth, to let them be free from her incarceration but what could they do when she had completely lost her control?
"Anum are you okay? ", he asked while standing on his two feet.
Her eyes following his move, she shook her head telling that she's okay, but just is unable to speak as he has stolen all her words from her.
He brushed a strand of her hair from her face tucking it behind her ear and cupped her cheek. He smiled at her knowingly.... both looking into each other's eyes, escaped in the realm of each other's emotions and love. It was as if time had really stopped for them and were induced into their own blissful eternity.
Her eyes shined with love, adoration, dedication and happiness and so was Sohail's. Holding her hand into his own he slid down her finger the logo, the sign, the memory,his dedication and ever lasting love into her finger as a symbol of a ring. Both smiled and looked into each other's eyes.
"I'll take that as a yes then ", he said to her and placed a soft kiss on her forehead.
She opened her mouth to say something but was stopped by him.
"Don't say anything.....your eyes say it all."
***********************************
"Do you Anum Ahmed accept to be the wife of Sohail Khan?", the Maulvi ( A qualified Islamic Scholar)asked her the third time.
"Yes I accept", she replied without any doubt and signed the marriage certificate without any hesitation.
The Maulvi and the other four friends of Sohail including Adnan and Anum congratulated each other.
"Okay I'll leave you two love birds alone now", Adnan winked while getting up as he was the last one to leave.
Anum blushed as Sohail stared at Adnan glaring daggers at him.
"Fine man no need to go all ninja on me", he raised his hands up in the air and chuckled.
"Bye Anum", he winked again.
"Let me show you to the door", Sohail said with humor dancing in his eyes.
"Please do", Adana smiled cheekily.
"Bye man"
"Bye", he closed the door shut and marched towards her love.
"It's going to be a memorable night Miss Anum", he thought to himself and smiled.
