The day for which they both had been waiting all their lives, had come. All their worries were going to ease and they were going to face the challenges of life collectively!
Doctor Asfandyar Ali Khan - all geared up for his nikkah , looked beyong handsome in a black sherwani paired with khussas and a thin strip around the neck. Asfandyar was just setting his hair with a comb, with one eye wide opened and the other apparently closed when suddenly Barrister Usman walked in, " Asfand betay, ready hogaye tum, ao sab wait kar rahei hain, moulvi sahab bhi aa gaye hain . " Asfandyar replied, "Baba bas do minute ruken, abhi aaya " while silently murmuring, "Aik toh yeh cufflinks pata nahi kahan chale gayen hain." On the other side, Gaiti bhabi was setting Zubiya's dupatta on her head. Zubiya looked so simple yet so elegant dressed in a long, white frock with as fewer embellishments as possible because that was the way she wanted it to be. Simple and Beautiful and that's what she looked. Lubna Aunty walked into the room, dressed in the same dress she wore on Daniyal's wedding and said, "Bachon ready hogaye ho aap log? Nikah ka time hogaya hai, aa jao jaldi sey."
Gaiti bhabi politely replied with a wide smile on her face, "Gee gee sasuma ham aa rahe hain."
Gaiti took Zubiya out to the room adjacent to the one where the moulvi sahab and the gents had to be seated. While Zubiya was passing the male room, Asfand caught a glimpse of her and that very glimpse spellbound him. He was so facinated by Zubiya's enchanting beauty that his heart almost skipped a beat even though he was looking no lesser than a bomb himself. His thoughts were interrupted by his father's voice adressing the moulvi sahab, saying, " Moulana sahab nikah shuru karwayein."
After all the religious and traditional requirements were fulfilled, the Moulvi asked Asfandyar in the mic whether he accepted the Nikah or not. Asfandyar took the mic in his hands, his heart filling with immense pleasure and his heart pounding with happines. His captivating and charming voice said, " QUBOOL HAI, QUBOOL HAI, QUBOOL HAI " His voice echoed all around the house. When Zubiya heard these three magical words, she felt like she had been relieved from all her worries, all her stress and all her tensions. Zubiya was thinking about how peaceful her life would be afterwards! A series of thoughts overflowed her mind when Lubna Aunty came and said," Mubarak ho meri pyari bahu, aao Asfamd kai paas chalen." And she took her by her hand. Gaiti Bhabi was walking beside Zubiya and she whispered in her ear, " Mubarak ho dewarani gee" with a little laugh and Zubiya laughed with her too. Zubiya had reached the other side of the room where Asfand was sitting already. Seeing Zubiya coming in the spotlight, Asfand stood up from his place and led Zubiya to the Sofa by her hand. They spent almost two hours posing for the pictures, taking complimemts and Congratulations before they were finally spared to sit together and talk to each other for a while. The finally sat down with a sigh of relief because most of the guests had finally left by that time. The both looked as cute and perfect together as anything in the world. Asfand said to Zubiya, " Yaar pata nahi itni haseen kese lag leti ho tum roz roz." Zubiya said, "Yeh to aapka husne nazar hai warna main koi lady diana nahi hun." A: " Tum dunya ki tamam cheezon se barh kar ho mere lie, phir chahe wo Lady Diana ho ya gali ki Farzana 😂 " This had both of them in fits of laughter. Then Asfand said , " Pata hai jab tum yahan se guzri thi na, maine tumhein deikh liya tha. Yakeen karo i was spellbound by your captivating beauty." Z: Arey ap meri itni tareefein kyun kartey hain, maghroor hojaun gi main." A: "Nahi hoti tum, tumhare jesi sweet nature kisi ki nahi hai is poori dunya main, and that's what makes all the difference." Z: Acha ab meri tareefon kai pull bandhna band karein." A: " Baby you gotta bear me with this lifelong, kyunke mein tumhari tareefen karne se baaz nahi ane wala ." Z: "Aap bhi na ^.^ " with her cheeks blushing. " Acha waise aap toh aaj kuch zyada hi ache lag rahein hain black main." A: " Bhai ab tumhari khoobsoorti kai standard ko match bhi toh karna hai na" Both of them burst into laughter. Asfi reached out for Zubiya's hand, and said, " Tum mujhe kabhi chor ker to nahi jao gi na, i am sounding a little dramatic but having you as my wife is like a dream come true." Zubiya replied, " Yeh aap ne soch bhi kese liya, i would never do that! You're the one who stood there for me, you're the one who protected me, you're the one who backed me up when i needed a support system and on top of that, you're the one who embraced me with all my flaws." Asfand was overjoyed with this reply and glinched her hand tightly. Finally he found someone who only belonged to him. Gaiti bhabi came and said," Bhai bohot batein nahi hogayin aaj? Hain? Abhi rukhsati nahi hui, chalo utho Zubiya, rukhsati kai baad milna apbe shohar sai" and made Zubiya stand up. Asfand said, " Kya yaar Bhabi aur kitna intizaar karwayein gi aap." Gaiti laughed and said, " Bas aik din ruk jayei besabre dewar sahab" with a laugh. Asfand saw Zubiya going and thought about his upcoming happy life with Zubiya but he had to wait a WHOLE DAY for that. •~•
