"Zara took a shower and is almost ready and you are still roaming with haldi filled clothes uh-huh." Yusra heard Fariha's teasing remark, while she turned to close the door, closing her eyes in an attempt to make up an excuse.

"Think all you can but you won't be able to come up with any excuses." She heard Fariha that instantly made her turn, giving her a sweet smile ignoring the mischievous look while Hana sat besides her suppressing her giggle.

"I need to take a shower." Yusra said almost rushing away but stopped hearing Hana, "You came here to take a shower?" Her question took her off guard, her eyes moving to Fariha who glanced between the cousins, trying to come up with an excuse.

"No, actually he has to shower too right? So I came here." Yusra came up with one while Fariha heaved looking at a convinced Hana but her next question alerted her again, "So where are your clothes?"

Yusra could not make up an excuse in Hana's eyes, so she pulled out her clothing from Zara's closet where it was hung, immediately keeping it down, preventing messing it up by her haldi-filled hands.

"Why are your clothes here?" Hana asked suspiciously making Yusra sigh. Walking over to her she sat down on the bed, after dusting her dress removing the excess haldi, before answering her questions.

"The guest were supposed to stay in our room so we had planned on shifting our required things; me in Zara's room while he in Saad's room but then things happened and I had already shifted things so Zara asked me to stay here in her room till the wedding." Yusra said glancing at Zara, who walked out dressed up in a simple pink coloured dress. Hearing Yusra, she nodded her head, going with the plan while Hana thought about it nodding her head.

"Who he?" Hana asked and Yusra furrowed her brows opening her mouth to speak when she noticed the mischievous grin on her face that shut her up. The girls teased her while her face heated up making her stand and walk into the washroom with her dress to avoid their teasings any further.

Taking a quick shower and getting herself dressed she walked out, drying her hair to only see Fariha doing Zara's makeup. Smiling she walked to them gaining their attention.

"You wore your Nikaah dress!" Zara exclaimed making a shy smile to appear on Yusra's lip while she nodded her head.

"Aww jeeju is going to love it!" Hana spoke pulling her cheeks making Yusra to close her eyes at the pain, hoping Hana's words to come true.

Everyone turned to look at the door when it sounded like someone was knocking. Yusra almost got up to answer it, but she restrained herself and let Zara open it while she waited for Fariha and Hana to put on their hijabs. Yusra's hopes died when the girls entered and sat down in the open spaces, but just as Zara turned around to shut the door, another knock caused the girls to giggle. When Zara opened the door, Afreen was standing there and smiling at her. She gave her a fake smile and invited her inside while waiting for another minute. After asking Afreen if anyone else was anticipated to arrive, she heard a negative response, so she locked the door and huffed angrily at the person, who had just knocked.

"Can't- Bhai?" She stopped giving a piece of mind to the person when she noticed it was her brother, "What's wrong?" He questioned looking at her irritated face but instead of answering with the story she asked him about the work he was here for.

"Call Yusra out," He directly came to his point making the girls to have their mischievous gaze fall onto Yusra while she moved away from the bed, ignoring their looks.

"Why?" Afreen questioned gazing at Yusra standing up and walking to the door testing Saim's patience. Ignoring her question he moved his gaze to a fresh Yusra, a smile appearing on his face.
