Maha POV

I wake up to offer Fajr prayer. I looked around but he is not here which made me feel bad. But I know he had to go before someone seen us together. I did my wadu and offer Fajr prayer. I lay on my bed but darkness doesn't consumed me. I'm nervous as today is my Mehndi. I toss around and pick up my cell. I unlocked it and saw message from Farhan:

I don't want to disturb you because you are looking beautiful when you are sleeping. I can't wait to see you again, Mrs. Farhan Malik. ~F

I could feel the heating rise up to my cheeks. I was thinking about reply him but don't know is he awake or not.

Sleep or not? ~M

I finally send him. I wait for him maybe he is not awake. A message pop up:

How can I sleep without you? ~F

What are you doing? ~F

Trying to sleep. ~M

I see. You can't sleep without me right? Missing me? ~F

His reply making me blush. I thought what to send him. I looked around and my eyes fell on the picture of my parents. A tear slip from my eyes. I picked the picture and hugged it.

I wish you are here with me at this time. I'm missing you so much guys.

I whispered kissing their picture. My phone start ringing. I answered it as I sit up. "Are you OK because you are not replying?" I cleared my throat and said "Yeah." "What happened?" "Nothing just nervous about tonight." "Don't be nervous then because I'll be there with you night remember?" I hummed. "Missing your parents?" I didn't reply him. "I know its difficult without them. You know what I can't wait for you to come in this house. You are changing me, Mrs. Farhan Malik. And I love this changing." He said changing the topic to making my mood change. I lower my eyes in shyness and bit my lip trying to stop my smile. "So are you missing me?" "Maybe or maybe not." He hummed and we both talk till breakfast.

I sit on the table having breakfast with my family. Khala and her family is also here. "So beta, nervous?" asked khala. I lower my eyes and bit my lips in nervousness. Yeah I'm nervous. "Don't worry beta. I was also nervous on my wedding." khala said.

I'm sitting in front of a mirror as beauticians are doing my makeup. "Go change your clothes then we will start with your hairs." one of the beautician said as they done my makeup. I got up and change into my Mehndi dress. As I come out of my dressing room they start with my hairstyle. "Please set the dupatta properly." I said them. "OK." They start making braids in my hair. They all are done after an hour.

I look in the mirror and saw my reflection. A smile made its way on my lips. The door of my room opened and Fahad entered who is wearing brown shalwar kameez with yellow dupatta, rolling around his neck. It's a theme for boys to wear it. "MashAllah." he whispered giving me a side hug and kissed my head. "Ready?" He asked. I look at him and said "I'm nervous." "Don't worry sis." He said kissing my head and held my hand. "Let's go." he said. I nodded my head and went downstairs with him.

Dadu is already left because he has to be there to welcome the guests with khala and her family. Minahil is just there who is going with us. I sit in the back seat of the car making Minahil sitting beside Fahad.

As we reached the farmhouse where Mehndi function is, all girls come out. I get out of the car and greet everyone. One by one everyone hug me. They all held a fancy dupatta above me. I held Fahad arm tightly as we all start walking inside. "Calm down sis. Don't be nervous." Fahad whispered in my ear. I take a deep breath and looked up with my shivering eyes. I take little steps to reach the stage and my gaze fell on him who is standing there looking at me in his yellow color kurta. I lower my eyes as Fahad give my hand to Farhan. We both stand together as photographer start taking our pictures. Why did they invite media? Farhan notice me tensed, he start making small circles on my hand and I calm down. "You are looking beautiful, MashAllah. And about media don't worry about them ignore them." He whispered in my ears. I smiled looking up at him which made him smile back.
