Shehnaaz passed sidharth as she made her way towards bride on other side of Nikkah partition. She smiled at her cousin but could feel gaze of Sidharth on her. She shifted her eyes to look at him

Sidharth's stood straight as his intense gaze traveled down every curve of her body, making the blood in her body boils. She couldn't away from him. She felt like revealing her entire soul to him with just one look. His eyes took darker shade of brown, like death himself. She saw him clenching his jaw before taking sip from his glass he has and looking away. Is it her clothes? She wondered

She's wearing something that old Sidharth would never want her to wear. As much as beautiful this pink heavily embroidered sari is it's kinda revealing, backless and short blouse. She has never worn this deep neckline, she bought it because she fell in love with this sari at first glance coincidentally they had colour she love. Even tho Sidharth has never stopped her or asked her to wear this or that since they never officially had any relationship but he used to show his displeasure by expressions

Her hair were straighten covering her whole back gracefully but when she moves they do slid and her backless back shows off. She has very light feminine make up with pink glossy lips

"Kesi ho beta MashaAllah kitni sundar lag rahi ho" Aunty aneela gently touched her arms to gain her attention

"Asalam-o-alaikum aunty mein theek hoon aur ap kese ho?" She smiled at back

"Walaikumsalam, mein toh bilkul theek hoon" She nodded her head "Islamabad hoti ho aj kal?" She questioned

"Jee aunty" She nodded

"Maher bhi wahan hota hai aj kal" Aneela mention talking about her only son who lives Islamabad. Shehnaaz has met him at family dinners he's really nice guy. Total green flag

"Achaa." Shehnaaz nodded listening to her talking about maher

"Shaadi wagera ka koi irada hai tumhara ap toh sidh-" Aneela stopped at time before uttering next words out of her mouth. She looked at girl with apologetic expressions

"Esa koi irada nahi mera" Shehnaaz gave her small smile gulping down lump in her throat

"Beta move on karjao you have your whole life ahead" Aneela gently squeezed her arm with sympathetic smile. Shehnaaz didn't like this topic at all, she doesn't like if someone tell her to move on. She doesn't like if someone mentions him and say something like this

"Muma" Maher made his way towards them. He gave disappointing look to his mother as he noticed discomfort of girl

"Salam." Shehnaaz murmured pushing back her hair and taking breath pushing back any kind of tears before they could fill in her eyes in memory

"Walaikumsalam" He smiled in her way. She forced her smile

"Tum dono baat karo mein ati hoon" Aneela touched her son's shoulder before leaving them there to talk. Maher shake head at his mother before looking at Shehnaaz

"Theek hain ap?" He asked

"Jee" She nodded

She breaths looking around and what she saw break her heart into million pieces. She could hear her heart breaking and shattering, Rabia literally throw herself on Sidharth for hug. She never would have done it like she did. Like she shows her affection for him openly and stare at him with loving eyes. He use to shower his life on her but what she did in return? Ignore him and avoid him any chance she use to get
