Prologue

"Zahra," A voice startled her and she slowly shooked away all her thoughts.

"Hamari mehendi kaisi lag rahi hai? Hame yaqeen nahi ho raha hai ke kal hamari shaadi hai," Madiha, her best friend chirped in excitement.

(How's my henna? I still can't believe that I am getting married tomorrow)

"Aapko dekh ke aisa lag raha hai ke aap ka bass chale tou aap ne aaj hi shaadi kar leni hai. Zara hausla rakhe," Zahra let out a light chuckle as she draped the shawl around her shoulder.

(It seems like you are very eager to get married. Have some patience)

"Aakhir mohabbat hi itni karte hai ham Aahil se. Hame tou laga tha ke ammi abbu nahi maanenge. Par hamare Aahil ne sabko manaa liya," Madiha smiled running her fingers on the edge of her engagement ring.

(After all, I am so in love with Aahil. I thought my parents won't agree. But my Aahil make them agree)

Zahra smiled at her friend as she was lost in her thoughts. She was at her friend's place as it was her friend nikah. She will go back to her home after the wedding will end.

The whole haveli was decorated with lights and imported flowers. According to the rasam, Madiha has to stay in her room until the nikah. As of today, it was her mayun and they enjoyed it very well.

"Aap bhi hame bataye? Aapko kaisa dulha chahiye. Ham aapke liye dhoond laayenge," Madiha chirped and she let out a chuckle.

(You all tell me which type of groom you want? I will find it for you)

"Aap ko itni mushaqqat karne ki zaroorat nahi. Ham apne baba ke pasand se ladke shaadi karenge," Zahra smiled tucking her hair behind her ears.

(You don't have to worry about that. I will marry the guy my father will choose for me)

"Aap aise kaise kisi se shaadi kar sakti hai jisse aap jaanti tak nahi hai? People get to know each other, they date and they got married," Madiha's mouth gaped open.

(How can you marry someone you don't even know)

"Sacchi bataye, hame apne baba par pura ehtemaad hai. Wo hamare liye ussi ko pasand karenge jo hamare liye behtar ho. Aur hame dating wo sab samajh nahi aata. Matlab aap kaise kisi ko pasand kar sakte hai ya aaram se baat cheet kar sakte hai. Hame tou soch ke hi ghutan hoti hai," Zahra said and her friend gave her the disappointed look.

(Honestly, I believe in my father's choice. He will choose the best for me. I don't understand a thing about dating. How can you like someone or talk to them without hesitation? I feel suffocated just at the thought of that)

"Badi hi unromantic hai aap. Hame tou hone wale jeeju pe abhi se rahem aata hai," Madiha said and she glared at her.

(You are so unromantic. I am already feeling bad for my brother in law)

Their conversation was disturbed by the ringing on the phone. Madiha's eyes were twinkling with excitement as she saw Aahil calling her.

"Ham balcony mai jaa rahe hai. Aap sukoon se baat kare," Zahra chuckled at her friend state as she took her shawl.

(I am going to the balcony. You can talk peacefully)

Zahra was standing near the window. A calm breeze hits her face and she feels relaxed. The night was dark and the stars were making their way all over the sky. She looked up at the blanket of stars that were stretched to infinity.

She tucked the stray of hair behind her ear as wind kisses her face. Zahra was very beautiful. She has lustrous and thick hair. Her hair was sprawled on her shoulder. She has wheatish flawless skin and high cheekbones. She has a button nose and thick long eyelashes which kiss her cheekbones. Her pale pink lips make her more attractive.

Her gaze fell on the silhouette of a man who was talking to someone over the phone. She caught a little glimpse of him as she was looking at him with curious eyes.

"Kya hua, Zahra?" Madiha asked making her startled.

(What happened)

"Kuch nahi. Waha par koi khada hai. Aap jaanti hai wo kon hain?" Zahra asked curiously. She bit her lips when she realized that she is sounding like a creepy stalker.

(Nothing. Someone is standing there. Do you know who is he?)

"Wo hamare cousin. Hamne aapko bataya tha na. Inhi ki aapi inke liye ladki dhoond rahi hai. Waise naam Zameer Shah Qadir hai," Madiha said and she nodded her head.

(He is my cousin. I have told you about him. His sister is finding a good girl for him. His name is Zameer Shah Qadir)

Zahra didn't know but she was feeling intrigued by him. She wanted to know more about him and most precisely, she wanted to see him.

Zameer Shah Qadri.

This name was ringing in her head.
