खड़े-खड़े साहिल पर हमने शाम कर दी,
अपना दिल और दुनिया आप के नाम कर दी,
ये भी न सोचा कैसे गुज़रेगी ज़िंदगी,
बिना सोचे-समझे हर ख़ुशी आपके नाम कर दी।

(Khade-Khade Sahil Par Hamne Shaam Kar Di,
Apna Dil Aur Duniya Aap Ke Naam Kar Di,
Ye Bhi Na Socha Kaise Guzaregi Zindagi,
Bina Soche-Samjhe Har Khushi Aapke Naam Kar Di.)

She breathed heavily inside the veil as she realised her surrounding. The sweet strawberry candles, the romantic environment, the decorated bed with petals of rose. All this kicked her nervousness making her breath heavily.

Hearing the turning of the knob, she jumped back holding her heart. As she felt the depression of the bed, her breath hitched.

"Assalamualaikum." He said shifting a bit closer to her to which she nodded not finding her voice.

"Aina." In his husky voice, he said making her nervous as she nodded.

"Can I?" He asked to which she nodded with her hitched breath. Next second, he pulled off her veil revealing her beautiful face to him. For a second he was stunned looking at the beauty in front of him.

"Mashallah!!" Unknowingly words slipped his lips as he gazed her adorable face. Her cheeks turned red feeling his gaze on her while she slowly lifted her eyelashes giving him the look. In the black Kurta with Bandgala coat, he looked handsome. For a second, she was lost looking at him who looked so innocent to her eyes. He had a small face which always held a cute smile. She knew how girls used to fangirl over him in college as even her friends were one of them.

"Its for you." He said sliding a ring in her ring finger making her gasp at the contact of skin. He was going to miss her forehead but backed out looking at her red face and laboured breath.

Looking at the ring, her heart skipped a bit as a adorable aww skipped her mouth.

"Badi pyaari hain yeh." For a second, she kicked away her nervousness and told him caressing the ring who was already gazing at her lovingly. The ring had a heart with a crown on it.

"You can change. I will fix everything here." He said looking around and made a face looking at the petals on bed making a giggle skip her mouth. He looked at her making her embarrassed as she tried to get up but couldn't due to her heavy dress.

"Come." Holding her hands, he helped her till changing room and he himself changed his Clothes in room.

After some minutes, she came out changing herself in a simple knee length Kurti and cotton palazzos while her dupatta was still on her shoulders.

She looked at him who was sleeping on the left side and then keeping her dupatta, she two slipped next to him but still maintaining the distance. He knew that this distance is less than the distance in their heart and he was keen on making her fall for him.

Sitting beside him on stage, she nervously fidgeted with her fingers. It was their Walima. People were coming to congratulate them while his eyes moved to her in every 2-3 seconds making her conscious. The red henna on her hand looked beautiful to his eyes as she fixed her ring with it.

"Aap theek hain?" He slowly whispered in her ears when saw her shivering a bit to which she nodded shifting slightly away making him realise their closeness at that moment.

(You are fine?)

"Don't worry. Just for an hour more. After that we will go back." He said to which she nodded looking at an aunt who came to congratulate them.

"Ammi, jaana zaroori hain. Warna wahan koun dekhega." Zain tried to explain his return to Mumbai to Nawar who looked at him sadly.

Aina was standing at the doorsteps with tray in her hand who signed listening them. Zain had to go back to Mumbai and she too have to accompany him.

"Ammijaan. Please." Zain said wiping off her tears and kissing her hand who gave him a sad smile.

"Aina ka khayaal rakhein. Apne kaam mein hi na uljhein rahe. Humari phool si bacchi ko pyaar de. Samjhe aap." He told him strictly who nodded biting his inner cheeks to control his laughter while Aina turned red listening her words.

"Packing kar li aapne?" He asked her to which she looked at him for a brief second before nodding in yes.

"Aina, I know the place is new and I am still unknown to you.But have faith on me. Please." He said holding her hands to which she nodded at him. Cupping her face, he dropped a lingering kiss on her forehead making her clutch his shirt tightly as her eyes opened.

"Don't worry. I am always there for you." He said holding her palms and kissing on it.
