I came towards the stairs but suddenly my shoes stuck in my gown making me stumble but before I can fell face first on the floor, two strong arms came to my rescue. And My eyes met with the cold one's of my husband, he took in my attire and I could see his eyes widen a bit and his body got stiffen but soon the cold expressions were back on his face and he pushed me back. "Oh god Brother, I was just about to click the picture, couldn't you just wait for few more seconds.." Ayaan came out of nowhere pouting and my cheeks turned bright red, realizing every one has witnessed that little moment of ours. "Don't sulk Brother, I already did.." Najma showed him her phone with I guess our picture making both of them grin ear to ear and I just looked down in nervousness..

"Enough of this childish behavior, behave you both.." He scolded both of them and they made a face and without uttering another word, he took hold of my arm and dragged me towards the stairs, I struggled to keep up with his face. "Don't do anything stupid today, whole city is here, I can't afford even a single a mistake and smile gleefully. Show them you are happy and God Why couldn't you remove that stupid thing from your head.." He murmured in my ear, his hot breath fanning my face, his hold on me was almost painful but I still smiled nonetheless. Don't want to give him a reason to be upset from me. 

How can he ask me to remove my Hijab, don't he know it's not a stupid thing but my modesty that I can't sacrifice in any case. Soon we were in the spotlight and every eyes turned onto us. Making me gulp in nervousness. I couldn't look up but when I stole a glance at him, he looked calm and collective. His strides ooze confidence, like he owns the city and honestly he truly does.. The moment my eyes fell on my family, my fake smiled turned into a real one and as soon as we touched the last stair and Asad left my arm, I almost ran to them. Oh!! How much I have missed the warmth of all of them in past 24 hours. 

"Mashallah!! you look so beautiful..." My mother placed a kiss on my head and my Father looked the happiest man tonight. "I still can't believe my little daughter is all grown up and is married, but I am so happy for you Zoya.." My Father smiled. "And So Am I..." I looked at Humaira and Mashallah she looked gorgeous. I hugged my little sister, who look so happy and excited. 

"Thank you everyone for gracing us with your presence, Please give your blessings to my older Son Asad and his beautiful Wife Zoya. Enjoy the party everyone.." My Mother in law announced and left all of us to enjoy the night. Asad immediately flew off my side after meeting my parents. But Thankfully Najma and Humaira stick to me like a glue.. Begum Sahiba also made me meet several of her guest and in few hours only I feel tired and exhausted. The dinner was great and I truly appreciate the choice of my Mother in Law. She really has invested her heart and time in preparing this awesome function.

I was standing with Asad by my side busy in having a conversation with one of his friends when a very gorgeous lady came towards us. Honestly she was so pretty that I felt nothing in front of her. Her loud makeup, silky waist length hair and a quite revealing Black Saree was making her get looks from everyone around, especially all the men in here were looking at her in appreciation. "Many Many Congratulation Asad sweetie.." Asad turned on the melodious voice and his eyes widen up a bit, like he didn't he expected her to be here but the next second it was me with eyes almost popped out of my socket when the girl kissed him on the cheek.. I took a quick glance and thank fully neither mine nor his family was in sight. 

"Hello dear, I am Soniya Jahaan, Asad's close friend. And you must be his wife?" She looked at me expectantly and I lowly murmured my name for her faking a smile. I was hating her presence strongly when she hasn't even done something to me. "She kisses your husband in front of you.." My sub conscious screamed. He doesn't even want me as his wife, so can I act as a jealous wife. The girl totally ignored me and got herself busy in having a chat with my husband, both of them totally forgetting my presence.. 

Is this my new life? Is it going to be like this forever? Will I be nothing to him?
