His Ain (Complete)

chapter 12

in the evening , raisha was happily surprised seeing haarij and zain . they had arrived half an hour before and went to zarkhan's room. 

he had already showered and wore a white shalwar kameez with a grey shawl , matching his eyes . he was looking handsome enough to make people forget to look away , the peace on his face was unmistakable . he was getting what he had wished for .

haarij hugged him " I wasn't expecting this to happen so quickly " he said with a grin . zarkhan also smiled . 

zain also congratulated zarkhan and handed him the box zarkhan had asked him to get from his place . 

" what is in it ?" haarij asked eyeing the box . 

" gift for her " zarkhan said and placed the small box in his pocket  .they headed downstairs , where all the guests had started arriving . shah zain also came near him . a huge smile on his face . he was happy for zarkhan . zarkhan sat down beside bi jaan for sometime . 

she didn't say anything but she wasn't looking happy too . " have you met ain ?" zarkhan asked her .

" no " she said and zarkhan nodded . he knew that she wont be able to maintain this bitterness after meeting her , no one could . she was the loveliest person for him.

" I think we should start the nikkah " hamdaan said and went with the qazi to the room , in which ain was with the women of the house . 

she was sitting on the sofa in a beautiful light gold dress . a matching dupatta was drapped on her head .raisha couldnt find anything else , as the wedding was in the evening . 

hamdaan patted ain's head after having her signs and they went downstairs .ain's eyes were filled with tears . she was feeling nervous and scared . she wasn't sure about the decision she had taken . 

zarkhan also fulfilled the requirements . the cheers of congratulations filled the house . raisha lifted ain's veil and said " now you are officially my daughter " ain smiled seeing her happy . 

" don't be scared ,we are with you " she said hugging ain and ain relaxed . she needed the reassuarance . 

shah gull informed that the papers were signed on the boy's side also . " we should take ain downstairs now " shah gul said .

zarkhan's eyes were going towards stairs again and again , he was waiting for her arrival . he saw her coming with raisha beside her . 

" look away , we don't want everyone to know that our groom is this crazy about his bride "haarij teased zarkhan , who only gave him a stinky eye , but tried to look at any other thing . 

ain sat on the sofa, in front of which flowers were placed . people couldn't see her face as the veil was covering it . 

" its time to take some pictures " shah zain said in a cheerful voice and asked zarkhan to sit beside her . 

zarkhan took a seat , he noticed the slight shift she did in the other direction . her hands were knitted tighly , as if trying to stop them from shivering , but he still noticed the slight movement . 

zarkhan allowed shah zain to take some pictures and then got up ,going to hamdaan. " please tell the servants to serve food " zarkhan told him and he nodded. 

he went to his mother after that " mom , can you take ain upstairs ?" he asked . he knew how uncomfortable and nervous ain was sitting there . he didn't want others to find out too . 

" but no one had even met her yet " raisha said . 

" they can meet her on some other occasion . " zarkhan said and raisha nodded .

the food was being served when raisha took her upstairs. she took a calming breathe as she sat on the bed . 

raisha lifted her veil and set it on her head , so that it wasn't covering her face . she only had a red tint on her lips .

on the other hand, zarkhan dealt with guests , haarij and zain were going to stay the night . raisha had prepared the guesthouse for them , which was beside the main house .

once all the guests had gone , shahzain said teasingly " i think , its time for the groom and bride to talk " 

" yes lala! " shahgul agreed with a grin . the elders only smiled seeing them teasing him . 

they both took zarkhan till the door ,zarkhan knocked the door , raisha opened the door and saw zarkhan there , who quickly started looking around pressing the back of his neck . 

" you have 5 minutes "raisha said with a smile and got out . she was happy for her son , but worried for ain. she hoped that everything would be fine soon.
