"I can't believe this is actually happening with you Dua!" Noor exclaimed. I couldn't believe it either. When my dad brought me home directly from the courtroom I was still confused as to what had just happened but I did not dare say a word because I was scared to lose him again.
My family welcomed me back far better than I could expect. My mom broke down crying because even though she used harsh words on me every time we met she couldn't mean them. My grandmother wasn't really over it but she wasn't saying anything bad either so I guess that's a win. My cousins, Siara said she was happy for me as for Safwan he didn't really bother saying anything but that's fine. They were disappointed in me and maybe if I was in their place I would be too.
But sometimes, we have to draw a line between our family's expectations and our happiness and Azaan taught me how to do that. But we had promised not to think about the past anymore and move forward. My dad didn't like Azaan to the fullest yet but he was ready to accept him for me and that's all that mattered. We were not going to get a fairytale ending where everyone is happy and forgiving. Things happen and we learn to live with it and make ourselves happy.
"Did anyone talk to Alizeh?" Shayra broke my thoughts.
"Yeah last week, she bashed me for giving Zain ideas." I told her.
"He's trying really hard. Last week, he called Ahaan to know how he convinced me. I don't think he was interested in the story he was probably trying to figure out how to convince Alizeh." Noor added.
"So you and Ahaan are really together now? No more fights?" Shayra asked.
"No we still fight but now I always win." Noor answered cheekily. The door rang and Shayra quickly fixed my dupatta.
"Now now Dua jaan when are we getting mini jaans?" Noor questioned excited. This was a question she asked me everyday twice.
"Noorie I already told you, the circumstances in which we got married we didn't even get to recover from our past properly. We are taking things slowly." I told them as the noise of cars broke our conversation.
"Guys what if they don't like me?" I suddenly panicked seeing the scene through my balcony as Azaan's family entered with gifts.
"I perfectly avoided them at Noor's engagement but what do I do now? I-" but Noor calmed me down, "Dua even if they don't like you, nothing to do if you're already their daughter-in-law."
"But still-"
"If they didn't, they wouldn't have come with your proposal." Shayra assured me. "Also guys look at this, Ahaan sent me the video of Azaan trying to convince everyone all day while they blatantly ignored him." Shayra laughed.
