As the morning sun of London painted my apartment with golden streaks across the walls, i buzzed with anticipation. I was darting from room to room, a whirlwind of activity, packing my bags for my journey to Pakistan. My best friend Zahra's wedding awaited me there, promising laughter, love and promises to cherish.
I smoothed down the wrinkles of my favorite emerald green kurti that I paired with a loose denim pant, the fabric soft against my fingertips. As I pinned a delicate jasmine flower in my hair, memories of childhood weddings flooded my mind—the laughter, the music, the vibrant colors that painted the air with joy.
Zahra's wedding was a celebration of love that spanned continents and brought together souls by fate. My heart swelled with happiness at the thought of witnessing my best friend's union with the person she loved, thousands of miles away in Pakistan.
Despite the chaos of packing and the flurry of last-minute preparations, a sense of calm washed over me. This journey wasn't just about attending a wedding; it was a pilgrimage of the heart, a chance to reconnect with my roots and immerse myself in the rich tapestry of my cultural heritage.
As I double-checked my passport and tickets, a smile tugged at the corners of my lips. I was ready—ready to embark on this journey of love, ready to embrace the magic that awaited me in the land of my ancestors. With each passing moment, the excitement in my heart grew, a bubbling anticipation that filled me with a sense of wonder and joy.
With one last glance around my apartment, I took a deep breath and whispered a silent prayer for safe travels. Pakistan awaited me, a land of beauty and tradition, where love blossomed like the jasmine flowers in my hair. And as I stepped out into the bustling streets of London, I knew that this journey would be the beginning of a love story of my own—one filled with laughter, tears, and the timeless beauty of romance.

The hum of the airplane's engines faded into the distant background as the wheels touched down on the tarmac of Islamabad International Airport. I breathed a sigh of relief, my heart racing with anticipation. After hours of travel, I had finally arrived in Pakistan, ready to embark on the journey that awaited me.
As I stepped into the bustling terminal, the familiar sights and sounds of my homeland enveloped me—the scent of spices lingering in the air, the melodious chatter of Urdu echoing through the halls. My pulse quickened with excitement, knowing that I was just moments away from reuniting with my best friend, Zahra, on the eve of her wedding.
Amidst the throngs of travelers, a figure caught my eye—a tall, familiar silhouette standing amidst the crowd, a smile spreading across his face as he caught sight of me. It was my uncle, Imran Hussain, his warm brown eyes twinkling with joy.
"Noor!" he called out, his voice cutting through the chaos of the airport.
I rushed into his outstretched arms, feeling the familiar embrace of family wrap around me like a blanket of love.
