So which of the favours of your lord, would you deny? -Al Qur'an.

you all can enjoy the scrumptious meal of  RiSaf's valima dawath here and what gift have you brought for your favourite couple?

Happy reading!

Safina Mehek watched him walk away from her as he took long strides and before opening the door, he turned and winked at her making her stomach churn and colour rose to her cheeks as her eyelids kissed her soft cheeks, fluttering her heartbeats. she sighed when she heard the door close and made a resolution that she wont let him affect her.

He was the one responsible.

He was the only reason that she landed on this situation.

She hated him.

Yes.  She hated him with all her being like He loved her with all his might.

Where will this Love and Hate take them?

"What's in that cute box?" Kinza asked and Safina shrugged as she sighed and taking heavy steps toward the sofa, she sat with a loud thud. 

Wearing all this heavy jewelleries were taking a toll on her and on top of it was the ache in her heart which was was more heavy then this physical pain.

"Where is Hassan?" Safina asked about Kinza's son and Kinza raised an eyebrow, frowning at Safina for ignoring Rihab's gift.

"He is with mom, now open this!" Kinza walked towards her taking the gift box from the table and kept it on safina's lap.

"Open it mohtarma, we don't have all the time!"

"Can't believe you were that silent Kinza few years ago!" Safina said meaningfully.

"Its all the husband's love that has changed Ms.Malak!" Iram said, coming inside the room.

"Yeah, it's all because of him." Kinza blushed.

"Aha, even after so many years, the spark of blush is still there!" Safina teased, for a moment she had let go off her pain and had forgotten that she was the bride.

"Yeah, don't tell me its not the same with you and Ayaan?" Kinza narrowed her eyes at Iram making her shrug.

"It is the same, but still I dont blush like you do as a new bride."

"Well, currently our new brides mood is off!" Kinza smiled, as she adjusted safina's mang-tika and urged her to open the gift.

"Hey.." Just then Rashiya'a came looked at Safina, making sure her bestie was okay.  She knew Safina wasn't, and it ached her heart to see her like that but Rashiya'a knew deep down, that safina would fall in love with her brother one day and He would make her forget everything she has gone through.

One day..

She will start loving him with all her being.

"You okay?" Rashiya'a asked, sitting beside her and Safina mehek gave her a nod with a soft smile.

"Ammi is calling you outside.. " Rashiya'a said after a moment of silence.

"Acha, Come on safi, open the gift and grace it by wearing it." Iram said, gleefully.

Safina unlocked the box and revealed a beautiful bracelet with the two hearts interlinked together as the small uncut diamonds made the hearts look even more dazzling.

"Masha allah, this is a meaningful gift, ah!" Kinza spoke as she took out the bracelet softly and made Safina wore it.

"How's it?" Rashiya'a asked.

"Its.. its beautiful.." Safina murmured as she sighed.

"Okay, girls. Let's go."

"All good?" Adeel asked as Rihab entered the men's section which was parted with a beautiful silver coloured satin curtains.

Rihab nodded with a slight smile as he said "Alhamdulillah,  she.. " Rihab stopped noticing Adeel looking far away and when he followed his gaze, he saw a blushing Rashiya'a.

"Peek-a-boo haan?" Rihab teased meaningfully as the satin curtains were wavering playfully giving a chance for the lovers to take a look at eachother.

Adeel blushed, rubbing the back of his neck.

"Adeel and blushing, haan!" Rihab and Adeel turned towards the source of voice and saw Daniyal, Ayaan and other friend's and cousins of Rihab walk towards them.

"Its good to see the change, Adeel," Daniyal said as he side hugged him and Adeel nodded.

It wasn't a secret that Daniyal and Adeel didn't go along with eachother an year ago but now things seemed to be a different with Adeel finally realizing and changing his behaviour with his family and friends.

He was as mysterious as the dark grey looming clouds; lightning a minute and calm, the next moment.

Adeel moved away from the Rihab's circle of friends hoping to get another glance of his lady love but he couldn't.  For some unknown reason his heart craved endlessly for just a glance of Rashiya'a.

____

"You never let us knew you were interested in Dani's cousin?" Ayaan asked after they had enjoyed the various delicacies of valima and Rihab who was sipping on the coke choked hard at Ayaan's question. Daniyal patted his back saying, " Don't worry Rihab, I knew you were interested in her since long back!" Daniyal smirked placing his empty can of coke on the table beside and winked at Rihab making him raise his brows  in question.

"Yeah man, you did asked me about the niqabi when you helped me and kinza meet through the balcony, remember?" Daniyal smiled recalling those beautiful memories.

"Is it? You're in love with her since more than a year?" Rihab's other friend asked and just then Adeel walked in asked, looking amused at Rihab.

Rihab rubbed the back of his neck as he shrugged looking down at his shoes, "Well, I don't know!"

Daniyal cleared his throat and said, "lets not make the groom feel awkward, guys!" And the circle of friends burst into fits of laughter making the air lighter.

It was time for Safina's ruqsati after the dinner and Safina mehek could feel the ache in her heart.

Nevertheless, she sported a sweet smile as she hugged her relatives one by one as they wished her for the new beginning in her life, but when she hugged her mother, Fariya, she couldn't stop the tears that threatened to escape and she let it flow freely, feeling peace in her mother's warm embrace.

And she was hiccuping as she hugged her father Osman, who was also in tears.

Osman took hold of her hand and called Rihab toward them as he said.. "I have all the faith in you,my son, I believe you will take care of her more than us and give her all the love, she deserves." He gestured for Rihab's hand and kept Safina's palm in his, as Rihab intertwined their fingers, promising to himself that he will give her more than she deserves.

"Ofcourse uncle, I will!" Rihab assured,  as his lips curved up in a smile.

"Chalein? (Lets go?)" Yunus,  Rihab's father asked and osman nodded as he and Adeel and other men walked toward the car to leave Safina.

Safina tried to get rid of his hold but he smirked and didn't let go off her hand, till they reach the car.

Safina hugged Adeel and her father once again, tears brimming her eyes.

"Are you gonna stand here all night and cry? My legs are aching safi!" Daniyal joked, making her laugh as she wiped her tears.

"Allah hafiz beta!" Osman said as she got in the car and Rihab sat on the front seat as Rashiya'a sat with Safina and the car slowly moved ahead.

Taking them on their new journey.

Of hate..

Of sweet memories..

Of vengeance..

Of love..
