It was love at first sight, at last sight and at every sight.

Entering inside his parents room, Zayn gulped nervously rubbing his hands together. His mother was reading a magazine while his father was working on laptop.

"Zayn,itni raat ke waqt tum yahaan?" Arham asked as he gently pushed ehe laptop away, stifling a yawn.

(Why are you here this late at night?)

"Dad I needed to talk about something to you and mumma." He said giving him a nervous smile as he rubbed the back of his neck. He was sweating profusely which was observed by Arham who smiled gesturing him to sir.

Insha was looking at everything curiously not knowing what took her son to come in their room at night.

"What happened Zayn?" She asked getting up on her feet as she walked towards him who was sitting on sofa and handed him a glass of water seeing him sweating so profusely.

"I like someone." As soon as he spilt the sentence, Arham looked at him with scrutinising eyes keeping his glasses on the side table.

"Till some months back, you hated the concept of marriage and suddenly this liking towards someone. What is going on Zayn?" He asked folding his hands at his chest, his eyebrows furrowed and a serious expression pulled on his face.

"Who is that girl?" Softly, Insha asked.

"Inaayat." He whispered, looking at his lap.

"Are you playing with the feelings of my daughter?" Arham asked frowning making Zayn's eyes widen who furiously nodded in no.

"I always loved her dad. I can never play with her feeling. I really love her dad." He said in a confidence laced voice making Arham smile. Insha's face fell listening to him as she thought over this. She had always dreamt of making her niece her daughter-in-law but Inaayat had no quality of what she wanted in her daughter-in-law. She loved Inaayat alot but there are certain dreams she have related to her son.

"Mumma, I know what you are thinking but I really love Inaayat. Is your promise greater than my life?" Zayn asked softly pulling her hands in his when

"No promise is greater than the happiness of my son.I love Inaayat like my own too Zayn. I am happy for you both. I will myself talk to Sumiya about you and Inaayat." She said kissing on his forehead making Arham smile. He knew that his son had feelings for Inaayat. It was crystal clear but Insha always had Riha in mind, which made her blinded towards her son's feelings for Inaayat.

Zayn gave them a small smile, a blush coating his stubbled cheeks as his ear tips turned reddish making his parents burst into laughter.

"I will leave then." Faking a cough, he said biting the inside of his to stop his lips from leaking into a grin.

And as soon as he got the chance, he ram away towards the door. After leaving, he again peeped inside to see his parents talking.

"Aur jaldi jaldi kara dein shadi meri. Wait nahi ho raha aur mujhse." He said grinning and ran away as soon as he received an amused look from his mother and a thrown slipper from his father.

(And make me marry fast. I can't wait more.)

"Bachpan mein chappal maari hoti toh itna besharam nahi hota. Ekdum apne papa pe gaya hain." His wife taunted narrowing her eyes at him when she saw him wearing the slippers.

(If you would have punished him in childhood, he wouldn't have been so shameless. He is just like you.)

Arham just shook him head at the mother-son duo. If anything happens, they both without any a second delay will give him credit.

Inaayat pushed away the laptop slightly falling on her back over bed as she chuckled dreamily, a wide grin spreading on her lips followed by her cheeks turning rosy.

It took a week for everything to be decided but finally, everything came on track. She felt so happy at the moment. All she wanted to do was squeal out loud jumping in the entire house. She felt the happiest at that moment.

She looked at the dress which was kept on the table and got up on her legs walking towards it. She caressed it with a smile when there was a knock on door.

"Its open." She said and she was in for a surprise when she saw Insha entering inside the room with a jewellery box.

"Mami." She whispered gently when she saw her looking at her.

"I am sorry bacche. " Insha said with a guilt ridden face.

"For what mami?" Inaayat asked looking at her with curious filled gaze.

"I never thought that you took Zayn away from me. But at that moment when he said that he will go with you, I was shocked. I didn't meant to hurt you." She said caressing her face face making Inaayat smile.

"Mujhe kisi baat ka bura nahi laga Mami. Aap chill karo. By the way, what are these? " Inaayat replied smiling a little and then pointed at the jewellery box Insha was carrying.

(I didn't felt bad. You just chill.)

"I especially purchased these jewellery for you. Come, I will show you." Grinning at Inaayat, Insha said and pulled her on bed and started showing her jewellery.

"Now, get ready. Engagement is within next 2 hours. I will send Maya and Liyana to help you." Insha said and left the room.

Inaayat's phone pinged and a smile crossed her lips as she saw the message.

The heart patient of yours will be impatiently waiting for you soon to be Mrs.

Love❤

She shook her head at his cheesy remark and replied bach with an eye roll emoji and kept her phone aside as Liyana and Maya entered her room and coughed to gain her attention who was blushing furiously looking at nothing particular.

"It feels like jiju had sent a very romantic message. Isn't it?" Wriggling her eyes at Inaayat, Liyana lightly bumped her shoulders with hers and winked.

"Shut up both of you." She glared at them trying to hide her blazing cheeks as she took the lehenga running inside the closet.

Liyana and Maya looked at each other for a second before bursting into laughter hi-fying each other.

After some minutes, Inaayat came out in a peach colored elbow length sleeve top and long skirt. Her engagement dress was simple yet trendy and classy.

As she sat on the chair, her cousins started their magic and within next hour, she looked like a sight for the sore eyes.

Taking the green net dupatta having light golden work on it,Maya pinned it around her left shoulders. Taking the pink bangle set, Inaayat started sliding them onto her wrist and finally the look was done.

After some minutes, Sumiya entered inside and was surprised to see her daughter. So grown up and gorgeous. With shivering hands and heavy eyes, she held her face pecking her forehead. Inaayat was always special to her. She had been born after nearly 4 years of their marriage. Even of she ignored, she had been taunted by society till Inaayat was not born. And when it was a girl, Sumiya was again taunted. But she raised a strong daughter as her child and she was proud of it.

"Mashallah! You look gorgeous. Tumhare Zi Zi ka kya haal hoga?" Winking at her daughter, Sumiya said which made Inaayat blush red.

(What will happen to your fiance?)

"Fanaa hi ho jaayenge woh aapke deedar mein." Maya said in a teasing voice only to get a smack in return.

(He will be lost in your sight.)

After some more minutes, She left for the garden where the function is organised. It was a simple family function and not much people were invited.

Zayn was standing in a off white traditional Kurta with peach overcoat and looked a total stunner. As his eyes fell on his bride, a huge smile adorned his lips. He felt his heartbeat stopping seeing her approaching him a shy smile. Tears clogged his vision realising how much he craved for this day and how he had even lost the thought of having her as his wife when she didn't returned after her studies completion. But today, when he saw her coming towards him, his inside churned with pleasure as a tear cascaded down his cheeks landing in the air. Her beauty was not something he admired at the moment. Her becoming his was all he did really admired.

As she reached him, he smiled at her. A smile worth all the pain and craving they endured. She just nodded smiling in return sitting on the beautifully decorated sofa.

Insha came forward as she made her wear a Red Dupatta on her head and give her some money and gifts. Then rings were exchanged. They both made the most they could from the moment. Everyone got busy with themselves and looked so happy.

"You look so gorgeous." He whispered in her ears making her smile.

"As if you look any less." She said looking at the pink diamond heart shaped ring he made her wear as her inside danced in pleasure. She felt an unknown happiness as her heart beat raised feeling him near her. She felt a put forming in her stomach as her eyes clouded with tears. Sneakily, she wiped them away but got noticed by him who held her hand to which she looked at him.

He nodded in no and that was when she noticed tears in his eyes.

"I feel like the luckiest person right now Ayat. All the distance, hurt and craving was worth it if we are getting each other in return. I don't have any complaints. Neither from you nor from our lord. Thankyou for making me feel this way." He said sincerely, all the while his eyes on her face making her give him a teary smile in return, her hold tightening around his hands.

He looked at her hands which were cladded in bangles and frowned. He looked around and his eyes fell on the gajray kept there and a full blown smile covered his lips. Getting up, he went towards the particular table and took two of them and went back to her.

Her eyes widened as she saw him sitting on his knees in front of her and effortlessly slided them through her wrist. Truthfully, they enhanced the beauty of her hands. He smiled with satisfaction and held both her hands in his.

"Lovebirds." Hadi shouted gaining all the attention and he clicked the picture where Zayn was sitting on his knees holding her hands while they eyes were locked.

Zayn knew, he would always be thankful to Hadi for that particular picture, forever.
