Maryam and Shehryaar

She Fainted in His Arms :( ;)

CHAPTER 15

The whole next week passed like swish  and flick! Maryam couldn’t believe time can fly like that. The whole week was dedicated to hustle bustle and excitement spread in both families.

“Maryam beta! so Hussain will pick you in the evening around 6, so that we can go for buying your dress” Saba was talking to Maryam on the phone, Maryam asked to buy her dress herself but Saba said that she wants to buy it for her and Maryam as always agreed.

“G aunty sure I will be ready” Maryam said

“Chalo then, see you in the evening” Saba smiled and they hung up

“Beta what was your Sasu maa saying now?” Aqeel entered in the hall and smiled at her and she smiled as well, in last whole weak Saba kept on calling her for like a hundred things; for the arrangements, jewelry, her dress, for her ring size and God knows what else.

“chachoo wo… dress lene jane ka keh rai then, Hussain will come in the evening to pick us” Maryam told him and he nodded

“Hmm, well then if you are going, do collect my suit from Williams, dear” Aqeel said while sitting on the sofa and switching on the TV

“Chachoo you should come with me too” Maryam sat with him and he smiled at her

“oh c’mon bache! Saba would be there, take Mehru and Nabi with you and then hopefully Shehryaar bhi ho ga… nothing to worry then” Aqeel said and she blushed and smiled back

“Dad!..... dad, I need your card” Mehru came into the hall

“Card?... yeah, why not darling, here! Have this” Aqeel seriously said and from his wallet, took out his contact card and handed it to her

“Oh dad……. This is your contact card and thankfully I already have your contact numbers, all of them in fact, I don’t need this” Mehru rolled her eyes and handed him the card back while Maryam and Aqeel chuckled at her expressions

“So what do you want then? I have just my contact card right now” Aqeel put it back and calmly asked her

“Oh come-on dad, I need your credit card, I have to buy jewelry, shoes and well… I don’t have any make up left. So lots to buy in short” mehru demanded, putting her hands on her waist

“beta itni demands to dulhan ki bhi nai jitni tumhari hen” Aqeel laughed and Mehru rolled her eyes

“Dad???? You are giving me or not?” Mehru crossed her arms over her chest and asked like a 12 year old

“Here!.... Take it, but please don’t waste my blood and sweat that much” Aqeel handed her the card with a smile and mehru winked at him

“C’mon Maryam lets go” Mehru said excitedly

“Yeah!... mehru Hussain is coming to pick us in the evening with aunty, So tab he chalen ge, thora wait ker lo” Maryam told her and she made a sad face

“Okkaaayyyy boss” mehru literally gave her a salute and Maryam chuckled at her

In evening Maryam changed into a simple black cotton suit and tied her hair into a ponytail, she applied her Kajal and gloss, while Mehru as always, wore a T shirt with red cardigan and jeanz, she laced up her sneakers and gave a final touch to her wavy locks.

“So janaab the would-be-bride! Tell me the whould-be-groom is also coming or not?” they were sitting in the front lawn and Maryam was busy admiring the roses when suddenly mehru asked in a whisper as if sharing a big secret.
