Chahat 6

Author's Pov

As expected, Hoorain did get her 'punishment'. Their Nikkah was pushed back by two weeks. Initially, they were supposed to be Nikkahfied a month after their engagement but somehow Asfandyar convinced both of their parents to push it back by two weeks.

Talking about engagement, today was Hoorain and Asfandyar's engagement. They were doing a very small intimate event with only close family and a few friends. Asfandyar was beyond happy and Hoorain was, well, nervous. She did not doubt Asfandyar at all, she knew that he was happy with this marriage but that was all she knew.

She wouldn't lie, but seeing Asfandyar going into a rage about the whole guy situation really made her heart flutter. It was unusual because she couldn't deal with angry people. She decided not to give it much thought and decided to leave everything to her God.

It was around 4 pm and the few invited people started to arrive. Hoorain's friends, Raima and Jaziba were there too. Jaziba and Raima were talking to each other in the living room of the Mir Mansion. The Mir's insisted on having the engagement at their house.

Hoorain was sent early to the Mir mansion with Mrs. Alam so that they could get ready there while Mr. Alam would come after he had visited his office and made sure everything was going great.

Asfandyar was at his home getting ready for his engagement with his secretary, Wali, who he was pretty close with. Although they behaved like professionals at the office, they were full haramis outside of work. [A/N: Hehe ;)]

He was waiting for his mother's call, she strictly forbade him to see or contact Hoorain before the event. Asfandyar had this smile on his face that didn't falter even a bit. Wali poked his elbow into Asfandyar's side and said amusingly, "Wah bhai! Itni khushi ho rahi ke munh se muskurahat hi nahi hat rahi. Can't you be this happy with the reports I give you?" (Wow bro! There's so much happiness on your face that your smile isn't leaving your face.)

"Your reports are very bad but this is a very different matter, this matter is much much more important than your pathetic reports. This matter is your bhabhi." Asfandyar replied slyly. Wali made a mental note to get on the good side of his bhabhi.

Asfandyar was done getting ready and was now sitting with Wali in the living room and he kept glancing at his phone, this didn't go unnoticed by Wali. "Thora sabr rakhein Bhai." (Have some patience Bro.)

"Sabr hi to nahi hota yar at least ab nahi hota." Asfandyar massaged his temple and as if on cue his phone rang. It was his mother calling, he didn't waste a second and answered, "Assalamualaikum, Can I come?" (I can't be patient anymore, at least not now.)

"Walaikumsalam, Han han baba aa Jao aur Suno rastein men se Aariz ko bhi lete ana." Mrs. Mir chuckled hearing her impatient son. ( Walaikumsalam, yes yes you can come and also bring Aariz with you.)

"Ok hum aa rahe, Allah Hafiz." Asfandyar said his goodbye and hung up. He got up followed by Wali and they headed out. They picked up Aariz who was Asfandyar's best friend since primary school and also Jaziba's fiance. Aariz met Jaziba through Asfandyar's sister, Raima and since then he's been in love with her and they're getting married very soon. (Ok we're coming, Allah Hafiz.)

Aariz congratulated Asfandyar and they sped off to the Mir mansion. ________________________________

Hoorain had just got ready and she was looking stunning. She didn't want to go overboard with her dress since it was just her engagement but Asfandyar was not having it, he picked the dress himself and it sure was very pretty but not really simple. She couldn't quite say anything so she just went with the flow.

[A/N: Hoorain's dress. If you don't like it you're welcome to imagine whatever you like :)]

She was currently alone in the room, her nerves were in a frenzy. She could hear people socializing in the living room and here she was waiting for Asfandyar to arrive so that she could go down and the event could begin. Her mother-in-law checked up on her a few minutes ago, gushing over how beautiful she looked. She told her that she was going to call Asfandyar so that the event could begin.

Hoorain was lost in her thoughts till she heard a car pulling up. She got up from the bed and walked towards the window to see who it was. As she was on the 2nd floor's guest bedroom, she had a clear view of the driveway. She glanced towards the car and saw Aariz Bhai coming out of the car, sighing she was about to turn around when she caught a glimpse of someone else.

She looked back and it was none other than her future husband. He was looking devilishly handsome in that slim fit suit with dark shades covering his eyes. As he sensed someone looking at him, Asfandyar glanced up to see Hoorain looking at him. As soon as their eyes met, Asfandyar smirked and Hoorain backed aways from the window.

(A/N: I can't start telling you how hard it was for me to find a suit that I liked, I mean this is still not the best option but I will just put this just to give you guys an idea and also because I can't find anything better lol. You are welcome to imagine whatever you feel like.)

Asfandyar secretly smiled and walked inside the mansion. He hadn't seen her fully but he knew that she would look absolutely beautiful. He walked in the living room to see it decently decorated and everyone was just socializing with each other. He went towards his father and Mr. Alam and hugged them. He then later went towards to his mother and got her blessings as well as Beejan's and Mrs. Alam's.

He quickly greeted everyone. There were about 15 to 20 people so it did not take that long. After greeting everyone he went and stood with his friends and about 5 minutes later, the living room went quiet and everyone's attention switched towards the staircase. Coming down the stairs was an angel looking girl, Hoorain. Asfandyar couldn't blink, he was mesmerized by her. She looked like an angel sent from above. "Hayati." Asfandyar mumbled under his breath. (My Life.)

________________________________

Hoorain backed away from the window after her encounter with Asfandyar. Heat rushed up to her cheeks remembering his smirk. This was the first time they met after the ice cream parlor 'date' they had. Hoorain sat on the bed to calm her nerves. Taking deep breaths she had calmed down but there was this faint nervousness in her heart that still remained.

She heard knocks on the door and her bestfriends entered the room. Jaziba rushed towards Hoorain and hugged her. "OH MY GOD!!! Bahut pyari lag rahi ho Mashallah." (OH MY GOD!!! You are looking very pretty, Mashallah.)

"Thank you so much. Tum bhi bahut achi lag rahi ho." Hoorain smiled slightly at the compliments. (Thank you so much. You look so pretty too.)

"Han han tum log apas mein izhar-e-muhabbat kar lo, aik Raima thi usse bhool hi gaye ho." Raima faked tears seeing her friends busy complimenting each other forgetting about her. (Yes, yes, you guys can confess to each other. You forgot poor Raima here.)

"Nahi Raima, hum tumein kese bhool sakte hein yar. Tum bhi bahut pyari lag rahi ho, Mashallah." Hoorain replied, making sure her friend felt included.(No Raima, how can we forget you. You are looking really pretty too Mashallah.)

"Is dramebaaz ki baatein sun lo tum." Jaziba snorted at the melodramatic friend. (Don't listen to this drama queen.)

"Thank you BHABHI." Raima replied, winking to Hoorain while stressing on the word bhabhi and stuck a tongue out to Jaziba. Hoorain blushed red from the word bhabhi.

"Ok lets go, we were here to take you downstairs. I swear to God you're looking so beautiful that Asfandyar bhai won't be able to take his eyes away from you." Jaziba said to Hoorain as she helped her up with her dress. These compliments were making Hoorain blush so much

"Yeah, just like Aariz bhai wasn't able to take his eyes away from you." Raima replied. It was Jaziba's turn to blush now.

They were now at the top of the staircase now and everyone's attention shifted towards them. The trio slowly began to descend down all the while having everyone's gazes on them. Hoorain did not want to look up because she wasn't used to having the attention towards her.

The were just at the end of the staircase when Asfandyar was about to go and help her down but Mr. Alam beat him to it. He had to understand the fact that she wasn't in his Nikkah yet so he should control his actions.

He could wait for a few days, it was not a big deal right? He followed behind Mr. Alam and helped hoorain with her dress, it was the least he could do. As soon as Hoorain was settled on the couch, he sat down beside her. She shifted a little on the opposite side and he just secretly smirked.

Asfandyar extended his hand towards Wali, he handed him a velvety box. He opened the box and asked for Hoorain's hand. She gave her hand very slowly, as soon as their hands touched, sparks erupted on their skin. He slid the ring on her ring finger and she did the same. Asfandyar for a few more seconds, liking the feel of her small hands in his large ones.

Cheers erupted all across the living room and sweets were distributed. Everyone was congratulating the soon-to-be-couple. When no one was looking, Asfandyar bent towards Hoorain's ear and whispered, "You're looking really beautiful Mashallah. Can't wait till you're finally Mrs. Hoorain Asfandyar Mir."

And that is how the evening ended. They had a little photoshoot session and they parted ways before nightfall but not for too long.
