Assalamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu...

(INDEED ALLAH IS EVER ACCEPTING REPENTANCE AND IS MERCIFUL) HOLY QURAN 4:16..

I request my precious readers to pray their salah if they haven't prayed yet before reading this chappy...

........................................................................

Asfa's pov :

As, I was in my room, my heart was restless and many fear crept inside me and I was sweating profusely! I thought I'll go crazy, because of too much stress, so I did my ablution and stood in front of my rab! the one who could bless me with peace of mind! and I prayed nafl salah, and I cried in sujood and asked him for the best and after completing I was gazing at the moon and remembered something...

Again, I took my dairy and started writing...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You heared it right! I'm not that straight!

If you don't know me, you'll be afraid!

Once you know me, it'll fade!

I don't like to be betrayed!!

But, it won't be displayed!

The inner self will be decayed!

My heart will be at blockade!

I hate the act of being played!!

But, again and again it tries to invade!

I have different kinds of shade!!

Which often gets ready to remade!

I know my life is slayed!!

Filled with emotional arcade!!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And Rey came and wiped my tears which were cascading down without my knowledge, and she engulfed me in a hug and then we descended down, and when we reached the backyard! everyone was excited and then grandpa asked me, if it was OK to keep the nikah in a month, and I was beyond shocked...

This early! oh allah!! what to do, I'm scared, the thought of leaving my family just pained my heart!!....

Then, I said as you wish grandpa and I hope, I did the right thing and then everyone congratulated us and distributed sweets to everyone and then momma said ...

"welcome to our family dear" she was smiling...

"don't worry, I know! how are you feeling right now! but never think that you are leaving them, just remember that Allah is adding more members in your family " she said lovingly...

Somehow her words soothed me, and then after bidding goodbye, they left... and then Rey consoled me and then I sat on the swing..

And the twin's joined beside the next two swings and they said..

"we are so happy!! for you sisto" they said in unison...

I smiled at them and then I heared saffu sniffled... And then I engulfed her in a hug and she was sobbing in my embrace and imad was patting her back and I laid my head in imad's chest..

"why are you crying my baby" I asked her soothingly...

"I'm going to miss you sisto, after your wedding you'll leave with Jiju "she said sadly, and I was overwhelmed with her outburst today and I controlled my tears,,

"so, what both of you will visit me daily right!! and it's just a two hours journey though " I said holding back the lump, in my throat..

"I'm, in the same city but! just in different house and I promise I'll visit you guys more often " I said assuringly...

"but, what if you forget about us " imad asked like a vulnerable child and his nose turned into pink..

"how can I forget my world?? you both know it right" and they nodded like kid..

"OK, kiddos enough of emotional drama and don't forget that I'm the drama queen here " I said laughingly..

And soon they burst into laughing but deep down I know how I'm gonna miss them terribly... But I remained strong, if I break then who'll handle them...

And then I said "you guys have a whole month with me, so! we gonna spend as much as time together "...

"we will rock it " imad grinned loudly...

And then we kept on chatting about the whole childhood dramas we did..

As we were young, we All were Harry Potter fans and we used to be gryffindor fans obviously because of the trio and I love the little Hermione in the soccerers stone and we like to repeat the spells childishly and holding a stick or pen like it's our magic wand!! and it was a magical movie and we used to binge watch it the whole time...

me, saffu and Rey also watched all the Disney princesses movies and I like marida from brave because of her bold and unique character and my friend's called me Rapunzel, because of my long black hair, which cascaded down my waist and imad used to watch all the avengers movie, in repeat and he was obsessed with it...

I wish it I can change the time, then I'll turn it back to the old times when we were small and being a child we will not have to worry about anything!! and we can be carefree and live the most peaceful life but, everything won't happen according to our desires and then we left to our rooms and then, I slept...

And I checked the calendar..

Oh Allah how can I forget!!that today is Sophia's baby shower, she'll kill me if I don't reach there!!...

And then, I hurriedly called Rey and asked her if she remembered the baby shower, then she said yes...

"I knew you'll forget! so, only I bought an extra gift for you, previously " she said dramatically...

"I will be ever grateful for you "I said because she saved me today...

Then she said she'll pick me up today and then I decided what to wear today and I always have a problem with selecting my outfit!! so, I rummaged through my closet and finally chose a dress and paired it with a dusty pink hijab...

And then, I waited for her in the front yard and then her car pulled up on the porch and she waved at me and then I got settled in the passenger seat,

And in her Lexus, we drove to our destination and she kept the gift's at the backseats and we were going to have so much fun today!! and she already know the gender of the baby and it was an angel... And then we entered our venue and I engulfed Sophie in a bear hug and Rey too hugged her, then I kissed her baby bump and the venue was beautifully decorated...

and

"how is the momma bear doing" I ask her admiringly...

"I'm fine and congrats on your engagement " she giggled...

And the pregnancy glow was evident in her face and her husband was running here and there fullfilling her every wish and desire!! and I loved it and then we played several games, gave her gifts, we got a sash and crown for her and she did a ramp walk, we enjoyed the food and then we were enjoying the scene where her husband proposed her once again!!! and she was in tears and after bidding our goodbyes, we left and I was driving and Rey was seated on the passenger seat...

Humza's pov :

After a long time, the meeting ended and I made my way towards my cabin and there was haan seated, already gazing at his phone and smiling giddily..

"booooooo" I screamed in his ears.... And he jumped on his seat and I was laughing hard and then I sat on my chair and had water, while he was glaring at me..

"what? were you seeing that you didn't recognized, that I was standing behind you" I asked wriggling my brows...

"it was Rey sending her pics from the baby shower and asfa was with her " he said smilingly...

"man you are married and still oogling her pic like a creep" I asked dumbstruck...

"this is what love does to you! my lion" he said...

"even I see her daily and spent time with each other! but, the time we are not together!! I became restless and my mind keep on reminding her smiles and giggles " he said dreamily..

"she is like a drug and I'm addicted to her and every passing second I'm becoming more addicted to her, she is my soul mate and without her I'm incomplete " he said with so much emotion...

"and you'll understand, when you marry asfa" he said teasingly...

"maybe " I said because I don't want to get teased by him and I'm waiting for that moment, I smiled inwardly....

Then, we left for home and on my way I thought what she should be doing right now ??and then the car came to an halt and I entered home and then I greeted momma and she smiled at me...

"there is lot of work, Humza we should start doing the work and please help aala to decide the venue " she said hurriedly..

"Humza, I had asked asfa about how she wants the decor, she said it's our wish" aala said...

"I know how the decorations should be" I said sounding excited.. Because I had asked sis in law ...

"then, you should select her dress and everything like you did last time she liked your choice" aala said...

"OK, then I'll go tomorrow " I said ...

Then, haan left and I made my way towards my room and I completed my work and then drifted off to sleep...

And, the very next day I went to shop for my future wife and I wanted very best and unique for her, so I asked the designer for a unique gown and she showed me and I was amazed with the beauty of the dress and then I chose Christian Louboutin stiltoes for her and then I chose a sparkling clutch, for her then, I asked them to pack and carefully delivered to my house..

And then, I entered my office I decided to complete my future works too!! because momma has ordered me to take leave from a week before my nikah! so I need to complete asap...

Then, in the evening I returned to home and then I took a book and started reading it and yes I have a habit of reading books

Then, I read for quite sometime then aala came and told me that she liked everything, that I chose for her and she asked me to accompany her tomorrow to select my tuxedo for the reception and a normal wear for my nikah... And then I drifted off to sleep....

And tomorrow as she said, I selected a tux for myself, then Haan and aala selected a Indian wear for my nikah and we selected my shoes and then driver took aala home, and we left for the office....

After we completed our work! I thought what should I get her!! for our wedding ring!! amethyst,sapphire, ruby or the normal diamonds!! I was confused then, I called Rey sisto and asked her favorite color she told me that she doesn't have one, but likes black, grey or blue...

So, I neglected black one because it was not the liked colour by our Prophet and then thought maybe blue sapphire or grey quartz for her well let's see!! what catches my emerald eyes...
