"Ana.. I cant sleep.. Im nervous.." Nushrath chided in the moment I slid the green icon..

"Well duh I can.. so lemme.." I shot up annoyed being disturbed from my slumber..

"You freak how can you sleep when I cannot.. You shamelessly call yourself my best friend" she huffed making me roll my eyes..

"Now now doode.. that hurts ok.." I retorted offended..

"It had to.. to bring you out of your dreamland.." while I sat up , now wide awake, there is no way she is gonna let me sleep today..there is no any way out but to listen..

"Whattevvvvaaaa ladddyyy.. I am up now shoot.."

"Chukki.. Im scared.. its like my inners are behaving to their accord.. what If they dont like me.. what if they dont see me as the prospective bride for their son.. what if they dont see me as the suitable D.I.L.. what if-

"What if I hang myself on the fan and die.." I scoffed..

"Do that later answer me now.. what if I dont match their standards.."

"They will consider themselves saved from the vampire who sucks on others sleep and move on to a more human bride" I joked stiffling a laughter..

"Go to hell" she screamed and was about to hang up when I started laughing out loud..

"For goodness sake bush.. we've gone through this god damn times hon.. they are just coming to see you in the name of dinner.. the wedding alhamdulillah is fixed.. it isnt like you've not seen Ilthumish isnt it.." I comforted..

"I know chukki.. but still.. wedding.. moving on..those creep me out.." she admitted in a low tone..

"Hey arent you the one dreaming on for days for your prince charming to make his entry.. here he is bro.."

"I know.. but still.."

I heaved out a sigh.. dude.. you are an  annoying brat I know.. but you are my annoying brat.. you make life perfect for others and there is no doubt you would pursue it always.. come what may.. hon you are being united with your love with allah's blessing.. its one of a kind and something to be cherished.. and trust me you are gonna be the best wifey and DIL the world ever had the luck to encounter.. though I pity Ilthumish for being struck with you for life.. the weasel actually has no choice.. after all its love moving things.." I laughed..

"Uh ass.." she murmured.. I could feel her blushing all along why wouldnt she..that duffer is in love..

"Now now.. would you want your in laws to know you are really a zombie?with dark circles and droopy eyes you will give away yourself.. now sleep and lemme too..shoo shoo.." I said

"Says the zombie herself.." she smirked back..

"What.. yah yah.. I love me too and I hate you way more than too.."

"Youre unbelievable chuks.." she laughed and with that the line went blank..

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

"Chukki when did I call you and when are you coming.." Nushrath screeched the moment I made way into her room after office

"Walaikum salam w.w my hate" I snarled back.. "so does that mean I can go back.." I joked..

"Dummo.. help me get ready.."

"Woah.. woah.. too excited to meet someone are we" I winked..

A tinge of red suffused nush's face making her look damn cute.. crazy what love can do to you..

"Sorry to burst your bubble hon but your weasel wont be making it to you today.. its their family.. he is abroad" I said with an amused smile..

A wave of disappointment surged through her face but she masked it quick and shot me a duh look..

45 mins passed by..me teasing and nush getting redder and redder with my comments.. it was soo much fun teasing a bride to be.. but it 100 times more fun as the bride to be is my freaking best friend..

At the dot of 6:45 Nush's mom dropped by the room to announce they are here.. and asked us to make our appearance in another 10 mins..

"Now I am your personal body guard" I raised my eyrbrows at her..

"Chuck it chukki.. and remember honey I am waiting for that day where I can return everything back.. how I wish I could tease the crap outta you too and- she chattered dramatically but stopped the moment seeing my face go pale and eyes glisten with unspoken emotions..

"You know that is hardly possible.." I murmured back my voice hardly coming out as a squeak..

Realization dawned on her and she opened her mouth to say something but I was quick to cut her off..

"Now lets go meet your in laws" I composed myself dragging her out of the room giggling..

"Remember youre the bride today for heaven sake maintain it though I know you are gonna have a hard time.." I winked giving my signature eye roll ..

"Assalamu alaikum dearies" a velvety calm voice belonging to a lady whose aura screamed warmth and all things nice greeted us as soon as we joined the others on the hall..

"Walaikum salam w.w" nush muttered shyly making me tempted to laugh out loud clutching my tummy..

"This is..?" The man asked Nush's dad eyeing us..

"This is Nushrath.. my eldest daughter.. and this is Ahaana.. my youngest.. these two are known as inseperables so that leaves us with not one but two daughtys" Nush'dad joked making all of laugh..

"Ahaana.. I remember you girls..if I am not wrong.. the new batch who joined for internship this year.." he pondered on rubbing on his snow white beard..

"Yes sir.."

"Come on girl we are one family now call me uncle" he chuckled..

I lifted my head for a moment only for my breath to get struck in my throat.. faded jeans and beige colour crisp shirt folded up to the arms.. chiseled face.. dominating blue eyes plus famous goofy smile..the moment my own black pools met with the certain dominating blue orbs.. staring back at me with such intensity, making both of fall into a deep abyss which I couldnt lay a finger on..

"Ana.." nush smirked.. "dude I thought I was the one getting hitched here" she smirked breaking me out of my bubble..

"Shut up.." I shot back and behave like a typical bride to be".. she stiffled her laughter and shot me an amused look which screamed " honey we are not done.."

I scanned around the room.. a Girl who looked about 26/27 who I assume is his elder sis was looking at us amusedly.. a guy who I know not-maybe her husband sitting close to her and another girl of about 17/18 was chatting animatedly with a cutie pie about 4.. and him witb his jet black hair swept to a side was listening to a boy of around 10..mashaa allah this family screams perfection..

"Ana.. its his family or him screaming perfection.." my mind voice again.. this thing sure knows how to screw me..

His mom came forward and patted Nush's cheek all the while smiling warmly at me..

"My eldest daughter in law.." she said with so much emotion and love that it would melt even the stoniest of hearts..

"So what about your youngest daughter in law.." Nush's dad winked thumping shezaad on his back..

"Well.. this Young man needs a girl who could knock some sense into his walnut shell unlike Illthumish this thing is unbelievable.." His dad mused smacking him on his head while others broke into a fit of laughter..

"Inshaa allah.. after Ilthumish.. Its shezaad.. if we find the right match" the lady smiled while Nush shot me a look-what-we-have-here-look...

My heart did a somersault when I caught his eyes burning into mine again intensely making my inners turn into jelly.. his eyes lingered on mine for a second more before diverting it to the boy talkinh to him..

Aunty and Raafidha aunty- his mom was chatting like old buddies while the guys gossiped about sports politics and what not.. and we girls introduced ourselves..it was soo cool how they mingled with us in no time..

"So girls lemme introduce our side then you can do yours.." the girl Who I assume is his elder sis volunteered while I gave a thumbs up..I also noticed that she is pregnant.. her baby bump sticking out from her shalwar kameez.. Mashaa allah..

She stood up in a rockstar style with an imaginary mic in her hand and started"I am Safreen Hilal.. the eldest daughter of Mr and Mrs Mahnoor and the lovable wife of Hilal ahmed and the adorable elder sis of Ilthumish,Shezaad and Sheza mahnoor.. she finished with a bow.. while we whistled and clapped..
"Mommy you forgot me and bhai.." the lil girl looked up at her with her big dove eyes her curls bouncing along while she spoke in her cotton candy voice..

"Oopsy i did.." safreen giggle smacking her forehead.."girls this is my cutie pie of a daughter zyana.. and boy clinging on to shezaad is her lovable bhai Dhanish..and another one is one its way" she laughed pointing her tummy..

"And me.."the other girls started following her elder sis " I am sheza Mahnoor.. 19 years old freak pursuing my degree in fashion designing and unlike my elder sis who is a lovable sis to all... I am the princess of the family except for shezaad bhai..who is my mortal enemy..

"Well shezaa you are not alone.." nushrath mumbled looking at me with a lopsided grin while I nudged her sharply in the ribs..

"girls.. I did not hear whatever.." Safreen said in a im-so-a-baby voice plugging her ears winking at me.. while went a deeper shade of red

"Doode its your turn now.." sheza announced throwing the imaginary mic at me..

"I Am Ahaana Maryam.. 23 years old b.com student.. "I pursued catching the mic and walking to the stage.."Im doing my intership ship at dev industries along with your bhabhi to be.. this not so innocent Nushrath here who is 24 and working with me in dev industries of course and is trying hard to put up a-shy-bride facade and is failing miserably at that..

"Ahaaana.." nush wailed..

"Wait.. I asked her giving my best puppy eyes paired up with an I-so-donno-what-you-are talking about-tone.."arent I supposed to say that here.. isnt it inthe script? But nush.. mum always told me to speak the truth.." I retorted in a childlike tone..

"And safs you know what.. some one was so dying to see Ilthumish that you had to see their face for that look of disappointment which was in its full glory knowing someone wouldnt be seeing their beloved today.." I winked sticking my tongue at nush who started resembling a cute cherry..

"Ahaaana... stop.." she blushed..

"What.. arent I supposed to say that too.. chowwwy baby.." I said pulling her cheeks.. while giving a hi-fi to safreen who broke into a fit of laughter along with me..

The dinner of course was a sweet affair considering the bubbly nature of both uncle aunty while the liveliness of Nush'dad and mum was the cherry on top..

Though I couldnt ignore the blue orbs following every single action of mine.. making my heart tread on waters unknown.. nevertheless the night was a memorable one.. with coming to mutual agreement to conduct the nikkah in another three months and nush's face glowing than the full moon all of us retired for the night..

🦄🦄🦄🦄🦄🦄🦄🦄🦄🦄🦄🦄🦄

Mahnoor household..

"Such a lovable family arent they.." Hilal commented plopping on the sofa beside his wifey..

The Mahnoor family was back from Dinne and was chilling themselves while shezaad excused himself saying he's got some work to complete..

"I know right.." safreen giggled "Ilthumish's got coool choices na.."

"Totally.. and the two girls they were adorable mashaa allah.. no doubt Nushrath is the perfect match for our family" Rafidha piped in..

"Yeahh of course.. and guys what say about Ahaana.." Safreen put forward acting on the plan germinating in her mind..

"Coool gurl.." sheza gave her opinion..

"Well her profile is impressive.. I interviewed her.. she is the one who Mrs Althaf recommended me..after all a charming girl" Mr mahnoor put forward..

"Yeah I agree.. totally a bubbly personality.. may allah bless her with all happiness" Rafidha prayed..

"Funny didu.." zyana had her say making others giggle..

"But safreen why now?"

"We've already got Mrs Ilthumish.. I say its high time we fing Mrs shezaad Ikam Mahnoor.. what say.." Safreen revealed her plan wriggling her eyebrows...
