Zaifa sultan

I was tired smiling at people and camera. My jaw started to hurt. "Allah knows when will i reach home" i sighed.

People where coming and congratulating me. Kids had surrounded me pulling my cheeks, jewellery and clothes. I was so tired. Aabi was also not around. I dont know where this girl vanishes everytime i need her around.

"Now your eyes are searching for me, but after few hours it will only search for one person", saying Aabi winked.

I rolled my eyes. She can only think about this. I ignored her comment and glared at her.

"Where on earth were you ? I wanted you around and you are not here ! You promised me on staying by my side on my big day and forever".

"I was attending few guests your mamma had asked to and now i am all yours babes", she winked again.

I rolled my eyes, "i am really tired with all this. I wont get food any sooner atleast get me something to drink no ?".

"You dint even drink anything ? See this is why i told you, keep a bottle of water by your side".

"Yeah right ! Seeing the kids here running and playing, pushing me right and left you think a bottle of water would last long here ?anyways just get me water, i am exhausted !".

She chuckled, "no wonder i call you oldie...there is so much time and you are already tired. I pity jeeju !!".

I narrowed my eyes at her, "are u going or you want me to call someone else and ask them to get me some water ?".

"say please ?" Teased Aabi.

"Fine sit and blabber here i will call someone else to go get me some water".

"Woah woah chill i will get something for you", saying she went not before asking the kids to go and play somewhere else.

Few minutes later Aabi came with juice and short eats. I gulped the juice in seconds and felt like finding an oasis in a barren land. Even after Aabi's constant pressure i did not eat anything as i was uncomfortable infront of so many. She scolded for thinking about people and not about myslef. I just smiled and shook my head, we always have this conversation but she could never change this behaviour of mine.

"Aabi we live in a society and we have to think about the consequences", i whispered to her.

"You and your consequences. One day zaifu, one day you are going to stand against this same society and will live your life according to your wishes".

"Okay fine lets not talk about it, dont forget we are in a wedding hall and i am the bride", i pouted at her.

"That is why you are on the safer end".

"Aabi dhi Aabi dhi....huh...jeejuiscomingwithinfiveminutes..huh..andauntyhasaskedtokeepthemilkready", said Manha in a single breath.

"Manha calm down first. Take a deep breath and then tell whatever you want to tell".

Huh....*takes deep breath*

"Aabi dhi jeeju is coming for the garland ritual within 5 minutes and aunty has asked you to keep the milk ready foe the ritual".

The mere mention of him made me jittery, and i dont know what will i do once he comes here. Till now i was frustrated and right now i am nervous. My heart is beating so loud that, if there were pin drop silence in this room then everyone here could hear the beats of my heart. Alhamdulillah for the noises.

Both the sides of family members were getting all excited and i was literally shivering. I could hear the ladies teasing and giggling.

"He is just coming to put garland and not to eat you, so stop shivering so much", whispered Aabi.
