Zaifa sultan

We reached the venue and i was taken to the dressing room for touch up. His relatives were already present and were eagerly waiting for me to come. I was soo nervous that i started shivering. Aabi understood and stood next to me. I said my salam and smiled at everyone, they returned the gesture.

Aabi made me sit and did the touch up while everyone's eyes were on me. It was so akward. Nashwa aunty came hugged me and said, "You look so beautiful my dear, i am sure my son is going to have a very hard time", and she winked at me.

I was shocked and surprised. What ?? Something like this from your mother in law is surprising !

"Wow oldie, you have a cool mother in law", whispered my best friend.

"Ofcourse aunty, after all my best friend has charms you see", Aabi tried hi-fi'ying at aunty.

Aunty narrowed her eyes at Aabi to which we got bit scared and the next moment aunty started laughing.

"Look at all of your faces girls.... Now now, your best friends mother in law has her own charms you see", aunty winked at aabi.

We all laughed and shook our head at Aabi and Auntys tantrums.

Two of my cousins came and told that it was time for the Nikah ! The chill ran through my nerves and i started panicking.

The gush of thoughts started running on my mind - "What if he backsoff the last moment ? What if something goes wrong ? What will i do ? What will people say ?"

"Nothing like that is going to happen oldie.... Stop panicking. Take a deep breathe and calm down."

I tried smiling at her but miserably failed. Wait ! I was saying that in my mind how did she know what was i saying ?

"Babes you said that loud", she rolled her eyes. "Now relax and take a chill...everything will be fine."

The nikah started and the muallim started the nikah with dua. Pappa and he exchanged few words and i had goosebumps all over my body....the feeling was different.... special ! Then the moment came where i was forever going to be his, in this world and hereafter.

The moment he accepted me as his wife, tears rolled down my eyes. I quickly wiped the tears so that no one sees and gets a chance to tease me. This moment was a bliss. I was going to cherish this moment forever.

"Mabrook oldieeee...!! Finally your are Mrs. Adl Ahmed", she hugged and kissed me.

His and my relatives present in the room congratulated me. Mamma, Malha came and hugged me....we three had tears in our eyes.

As per the tradition, Nashwa aunty made me wear earrings and gifted me the Mahr. "Welcome to the family beta", aunty said before kissing my forehead.

"Thank you aunty."

"Aunty ? You are going to call your mother in law, aunty!?" She narrowed her eyes. Call me mumma, mummy, ammi anything but not aunty.

"Okay...umm Ammi ?"

"Good. I love the word Ammi", she patted my cheeks.

Mumma had a beautiful and peacefull smile on her face. I wonder what is she thinking.

After few minutes i was asked to take to the stage. I was already feeling tired with this lehenga and jewellery ! It was going to be a long dayy......

Adl Ahmed

"Nijaz can we do the nikah tomorrow ? Its soo hot today", i asked him

Nijaz rolled his eyes at this, "how am i even friends with you manh ? atleast comeup with some better reason, the reason was soo lame to postpone the nikah."

"Okay then i will sit here and do the nikah, that sounds cool and unique right ?"

"Serioulsy bro ? Is this the limit of your lameness or there is more of it ?"

"Urggg !! Okay fine....i am nervous, i am damn scared...what if things goes wrong ? What if i fail to fullfill my responsibilities. What if she backsoff ?"

"Serioulsy she will backoff ? Bro she has already given her consent. Look calm down and relax. Everything will be fine and about the responsibilities, dont panic just go with the flow and i know you will be the best husband."

"Okay the last sentence made me feel bit better", saying we side hugged each other.

"Good...now lets go, let us not make your father in law wait."

*******

I was already nervous and seeing so many people near the nikah spot did not help me at all. I sat opposite of her father. The muallim started the nikah with the dua. As time went my nervousness increased. Her father and i exchanged few words. I had to look into his eyes and accept his daughter as my wife and trust me i couldnt do that...i dont know why but i just could not look into his eyes.

Then the moment came where she was going to be mine for both the worlds. The moment i said, yes i accept her as my wife i felt different....i will never be able to explain these feelings...it was a beautifull feeling. The nikah got over, me and my father in law hugged each other....one by one everyone present in the hall, came and congratulated me.

Nijaz took me to the dressing room for a quick change.

"Bro Mabrook ! Finally you are a married man", saying he hugged me.

"Thanx Manh...dont you think you should start searching for a life partner too now."

"Ex-cuse me ? No thanks, i am happy being single. And btw you just got married so enjoy your day and keep me away from all this marriage talks."

I rolled my eyes.... "all this drama of being single is only untill you find someone. The day u find her, trust me you will not have patience untill you make her as yours."

He chuckled, "nikah has made you mad man Adl. Leave me and get ready if you dont want people to not wait for you."

"Yeah yeah let me get ready."

A smile formed my lips thinking about her. I cannot wait to see her ! It was going to be a long day for sure......
