----Hussain's POV----

I woke up early yet again. It's going to take time to adjust to different timezone.

I turned and noticed Arya was still asleep.

I carefully took her hand. Her mendi was starting to fade away. I was suprised that it wasn't already gone. I mean we've been married for a while now.

I decided to look to see if I can find my intial somewhere. I wouldn't blame her if she didn't get it put. I mean we didn't even want to get married.

No luck on this hand. I carefully took the other one.

Still no luck. Let's try again.

I put both of her hands together.

Finally!! See, I found it!

"Found it?" She asked.

"Your awake?" I asked.

"Have been for a bit, saw you so busy trying to find something so I didn't say anything,"she said.

"Ya, I've found it,"I said.

"Good, I would've hurt you if you didn't,"she said.

"Acha ji?" I questioned.

"Yes,"she said.

"Anyways, aaj kha plan, it's all set by me,"I said.

"So I have to get up?" She questioned.

"Not right now,"I said.

"Good, I'm going back to sleep,"she said.

"How are you still able to sleep?" I questioned.

"What do you mean?" She asked.

"I mean timezone differences,"I said.

"Oh okay,"she said.

"By the way, your mehndi must've turned out dark seeing it still hasn't faded,"I said.

----Arya's POV----

"By the way, your mehndi must've turned out dark seeing it still hasn't faded,"he said.

**Flashback**

Everyone was busy enjoying enjoying themselves. Why should I even care? I was getting married. Something I didn't want.

"I'm finished,"the mehndi artist said.

"Thank you,"I replied.

All other girls started saying, me next!

"Kya hua? You don't look happy,"mom said.

"It's just the smell. It's really strong,"I said.

I had to keep it hidden from her. The real reason as to why I'm not happy and the real reason as to why I'm getting married.

The day went by and I was told to leave it on overnight.

The next morning I washed it off.

Wow!! This is really dark!!

I decided to get ready before going to tell mom.

"You know they say if you're mehndi turns out dark it means you're mother-in-law and husband will love you,"mom said.

I rolled my eyes at the husband part.

I couldn't even go to work today, because we were going shopping for the stupid wedding.

I looked at it as we were driving to the stores.

At least, I know that my mother-in-law will like me.
