𝐀𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐲𝐚 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐒𝐡𝐞𝐡𝐫𝐚𝐦,
Goodness can only last a while. What once was an accidental bump at the airport turned out to be her newest brother in law back at home. Everything about love seems exciting to Aaliya, but nothing in the way Sheh...
I wake up to sunlight blaring through my windows. Squinting my eyes I look to my side to see it empty,wondering where is Daneen at this hour.
At um 2:00 PM exactly.
I hurriedly haul myself to the bathroom to get freshened up and afterwards throw on a hoodie and make my way outside towards the lounge. I spot Daneen annoying Subhan about something at the corner of the room while Mama and Baba are in the kitchen.
"Aslamo alikum" I greet everyone cheerfully. (Good morning)
"WA alikumsalam" everyone replies me back. (Good morning to you too)
Daneen makes her way towards me and speaks"How was the beauty sleep, babe?"
"Definitely worth it."I reply back.
"You slept overtime and now we have a list of things to do." she said.
"Oh shit, I have to pick up my saree from the dry cleaners, you should've woken me up, Neen" I spoke while elbowing her.
"Don't worry, I've convinced Subhan to pick it up for you" she replied.
"Thank God, you're the best" I said while giving her a kiss on the cheek.
"I know right?" she replies back while flipping her hair dramatically.
I laugh at her and make my way to the kitchen before plopping down on the stool and eating my breakfast. Food is the solution to everything. I've learnt that over the past years.
I am feeling a lot better from last night. The guilt that maybe I haven't spent much time with Aira dulled a bit after I lulled myself to sleep before the thoughts consumed me. She was still here and she would be visiting every other day and besides if she was happy I was happy too.
Daneen was with me too and with her in the room I don't think I need anyone else. She and I have developed a relationship far more greater then any blood related relationship I have. I was grateful to have her.
After I was done with my breakfast I thanked Subhan with a hug to which he playfully shoved me away at first but complied soon after.
Time went fast. It was now 6:30 PM and me and Daneen were in my room getting ready.
"You know I don't know a thing about how to wear a saree, right?" I speak while applying a simple winged liner.
"You have me to do it for you, stop worrying about it." she said as she playfully shoved me.
"DANEEN MY LINER!" I shout at her to which she smirks playfully.
She spoke."Are you having Deja-Vu, Aaliya?"
"I'll kill you" I say as I attack her with a pillow.
"I'll gladly die at your hands." she says back.
"Oh yes? I wonder what Omar will think about it" I say as she stiffened upon hearing my words.
"Shut up, Liya" she says already annoyed.
"Okay but bestie you need to tell me what's going on." I ask her.
"Okay you want to listen? I'll tell it to you." she says before continuing.
"I don't know what the actual hell is happening to me, or what the hell is wrong with him either,okay? that stupid asshole has an oath with himself to put me down at all costs and now when he has suddenly emerged as your brother in law I cant help but think about how I will loathe him even more and then when I am about to go to sleep that man is literally everywhere." she spits it all out while I am left smiling so hard I bet I look like a joker.
"What's happening to me is that my hatred is taking a carnal edge now,liya" she says while putting down the makeup brush in her hand.
"You're being attracted to your sworn enemy, Daneen Umair Awan" I reply.
_________________________________________ TIME SKIP
"I look good, right?" I ask Daneen who is giving her makeup last touches.
"Hot as hell" she replies while looking at me from head to toe.
I wore a saree for the first time in my life and I can say that I like it. It was a dull grey saree with elegant pearl work on it. To say that it dripped with elegnacy, beauty and simplicity would be an understandment.

Meanwhile Daneen ditched her normal style and settled on doing something simple instead. She wore a white long silk kameez with threads of pearls dangling from its end and a net dupatta to match it all up. She looked beautiful.

After everyone was ready, we successfully made it to the car and drove to the Location. As far as I knew it was being held in open, in a private place which was a bit away from the city but upon coming eye to eye with it, I was left in literal awe.
The decorations were like nothing I had ever seen. Everything dripped elegancy and Aira's choice. We were led up to the double doors of the entrance by 2 men who were dressed in proper tuxedos.
And infornt of the double doors stood the Khan family. Omar, Shehram, Sahrish Aunty, Irfan Uncle and ofcourse mini Khan too.
They all looked so good I doublechecked myself twice out of nervousness.
"You ready?" Daneen next to me asks, breathless due to some reason.
"Honestly, No" I reply back.
"Same, liya." she says back.
I lightly laugh at her response. I had never seen Daneen so nervous and I knew exactly who was making her like this.
The man who stood on the left side with his hands in the pockets of his slacks and his gaze fixated on her and only her.
