The entire house was drowning with the mehek of gainde, gulaab and motia. Everyone was running here and there, because it was the day of nikkah. With a smile adorned on the faces of family members, everyone was getting ready. The nikkah of the groom side was being held at the nearby Mosque, as the bride's was being held in the walls of Haveli. Everything was prepared and arranged beautifully, after all it was the wedding of Malik's. The function after nikkah was at haveli, and every single member was excited over it. Noor after dressing up, with Haya and Aamina, in her room, was ready to leave and check on Hareem, the bride, when Bari ammi barged in. ‘Masha Allah, tum teeno to bohat pyari lag rahi ho’. With that said she kissed their foreheads, but Noor could sense she was distracted.
