And there is none that walks upon the earth whose sustenance does not depend on the mercy of Allah.
He knows where it shall stay and where it shall be deposited; everything is in a clearly explaining Book [11:6]

I entered the hall only to see Shan standing beside groom or more precisely at the place where I stood earlier. He is very good at taking my place.

You may be thinking I hate Shan but I don't it's just that when I look at him I remember my childhood bad memories. He was always a golden boy in my family with good manners and grades lastly his charming look.

He was that child to whom your parents point saying look just become like him. He was favourite kid and I was spoilt brat for everyone it was my rebel attitude because I don't want to become like Shan alam.

I don't envy him it was all past but I avoided encounter with him because he was their with my dad at his last moment for which I'm grateful but still regret not being their.

"Assalamualaikum big bro how are you" said Shan patting my back getting me out of thoughts

"Wa alaikumassalam I'm fine what about you. You look very happy" I said trying to smile at him

"It is because I'm happily married and life is beautiful as my wife" he said with smirk that's the reason I dislike him its habit to flaunt. I just internally groan at his attitude

"Yeah I'm happily unmarried and life is great without a wife" I said to which he laughs

"Guys Stop talking. People are looking here. Go do your get together somewhere else" Junaid whisper yelled to us and we just shrugged it

"Junaid bro just chill why are you getting nervous. Relax your nikkah is done now so no chance of getting rejected by babhi" Shan said to him winking

"I'm not nervous and stop talking let me enjoy attention as groom. Don't spoil my image any further. I don't want others to say that grooms friends are gossiping" he said giving smile to his relatives

"Chill man we won't rob your attention and you're gossip queen not us" I said with frown and left to buffet seeing him scoffed

When function was over I got call from warda to pick her and mom seriously they could have called driver. Riding warda in my car means making my car get scratched if I say anything wrong while driving. Mom and wardha's protection matters is more important. I won't let them ride cab. Even if I get headache after listening to warda's blabber

"Assalamualaikum bhai you got your Mercedes today. Wow interior is perfect" warda said entering car and started examining it

"My son get everything best and stop jumping in car tie your seat belt" mom said. I looked at her with frown it's odd that mom is taking my side. She is typical I love my daughter more type mother.

"Yeah of course because you always choose best for bhai" warda said its totally getting weird they are definitely not talking about my car. I tried concentrating on driving to avoid thinking deeper in it

Then whole conversation flipped and they started talking about some girl now I got it that mom finally found someone to be her daughter in law. My mom never forced me about marriage nor she says about any proposals but now the way she is talking about it. I think finally she got someone from me.

Anyway I'm going to get married to her choice because I have promised now about smarty I did wrong thinking about her. First I can't love her and now can't even marry her so I hope she gets someone better its time to stop my curiosity of knowing her and to this I sighed

Mir didn't left my side after entering hall. Alhamdulilah I found him. Rafath babhi was relived and she started hugging and kissing him to which he groaned saying he is not baby anymore.

I didn't wasted time and took Mir to buffet to feed him and also got ice cream which he happily ate while giving me a little. My boy is real gentlemen you see.

I meet warda and her mom we chatted alot. I didn't knew aunty is so cool and got to know that she takes warda side more than his son well she really is motherly figure to me now. I introduced them to Mir and they loved him being shy person he runs to see his mother and we all chuckle at his behaviour

When function wind ups I just went to my room and crashed in bed without changing. I'm to lazy now dress will definitely leave mark on me but I don't care

I felt vibrations and light was disturbing my eyes moving hand got hold of phone and said 'hello' with sleepy voice and heard someone saying 'mam' it was my secretary's voice

I turned myself on back and answered her properly

"Mam their is problem in Pune project" She said

"What is it reena you can inform me in morning" I said still feeling sleepy

"Its very important mam the project is facing serious issues investors are asking explanations" reena said in worried tone sleep got thrown out of window and I hurriedly sat up to listen her information

"Okay relax book my ticket and set up meeting with investors for morning" I said trying to calm her

Here comes a bigger task to inform others that I'm going to Pune this news will not make Taya ammi happy specially missing my big brother valima for work will only give others reasons to talk do I care no and my project will help women in getting employment as my project includes 60%women

My body started paining from weight of heavy dress I checked time and got ready to prayed tahajjud. Dadu is awake at this time I decided to go and talk to him. He asked me to go and did prayers for my safe journey with success in project.

I booked a cab as already got tickets from reena and left with bag and drove to airport on my way I have called Shan and explained him about he insisted to go instead of me but I declined because the project here is having dead line which he have to deal. He assured me that project will be completed before date and said goodbye. Through out journey I hoped that my absence in valima do not create issue and prayed for the newly wedded couple.

Who knows this journey could change her life in unexpected ways




Hadith of the day
When Allah's prophet (peace be upon him) set out on a journey in the morning, he used to say: "A listener listened to our praising Allah (for) His goodly trial of us. Our Lord! accompany us, guard us and bestow upon us Thy grace. I am seeker of refuge in Allah
from the Fire." [Sahih Muslim]
