It was 1:00 o'clock in the noon when Shiza(Asmara's mom)went to Asmara's room to wake her up.

"Asmara,meri jaan!get up my sweety"she said stroking her hair gently.

"Hm..mm,Mama...2 minutes please."Asmara said in sleepy baby voice.

"Asmara we are getting late,it's Ayesha's barat today,we have to go there.Hurry up my daughter."

"Ok Mama I am up,happy now?"Asmara said rubbing her eyelids.

"Yes sweety,now hurry up.Your baba will be coming soon to take us to the venue."her mother said.

When she was getting ready,she again saw bracelet in her hand and everything just clicked her mind.She remembered her pleadings to Hashim,their hug,his affection and then what happened...she does not have any idea...Did she again faint??how she was on bed?why his family came here?and now the bracelet?all these things were confusing her to great extent.

Leaving her thoughts,she focused on getting ready because she was very happy for her Ayesha Api.She wore a light green dress paired with red dupatta,letting her hair open,wore simple makeup,looking pretty as usual.

After sometime her baba came and they headed to the venue.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After coming back from her home Hashim went to Ayesha and told her about Asmara's condition that how vulnerable she was,she was literaly begging infront of him,he felt a great pain seeing her state.

Ayesha made him quiet and advised him to keep Asmara happy.

After getting ready they headed to the venue.Hashim was wandering in the hall receiving guests,he was waiting for Asmara.He wanted to see her.He wanted to talk to her,to promise her that he will always be there for her,no matter what situation comes.He was thinking all this when Wali came and greeted him,they hugged each other and Wali said"have you told your family about divorce?"

Hashim pressed his forehead and said"there will be no divorce.Ayesha have talked to Omar bhai,everything is fine now."

Wali was surprised and said"so you are saying you just did it for Ayesha,you don't like your wife,is that so?.I thought you liked her as your wife but you proved me wrong bro."

And it hit Hashim to the core.

"No,I like her.I never wanted divorce but my decision was so wrong.I am very ashamed of myself."Hashim replied.

"I knew it and sorry for the divorce idea but I wanted you to realize that you not only like her in person but as your wife,your woman.Congratulations for your wedding."Wali said while winking."by the way I want to meet my bhabi,where she is?"Wali asked.

Hashim said disappointedly"I was also searching for her but I couldn't find her."

Wali laughed and said"Mr.husband missing your wife already.Look the boy who never gave any lift to a single girl is now a love sick puppy."

Hashim glared at him but his eyes softened seeing Asmara entering the hall...she was looking so beautiful that Hashim kept staring at her.

Asmara's look👇

Wali turned behind and saw Asmara coming.He smirked seeing Hashim shamelessly staring at her.

"She is all yours to see but behave here.It's not good to stare your wife in public."Wali said mischievously in Hashim's ear breaking Hashim's trance.

Hashim smacked his head and said"don't tease me."

Wali laughed"okay bro but can I praise your wife?like she is gorge..."

"Stop!you idiot.Don't you dare to praise her,she is my wife!"Hashim growled

And Wali laughed saying " already so possesive Mr.Hashim Ahmed."

Asmara after coming to venue entered the hall,she was searching for Sara but Sara was not there so she went to bridal room.Sara was with Ayesha setting her duppatta,Asmara greeted Ayesha.

"Ayesha Api Ma sha Allah!you are looking so pretty,you are the prettiest bride ever!"Asmara praised her enthusiatically.

Ayesha smiled and said"thank you sweety but you are looking more pretty,if you don't agree then let me call Hashim.He will tell you who is the most prettiest bride ever."

Asmara's face turned deep red,her cheeks heated up.

" Api you are shying,you are looking so cute,see your cheeks,you are blushing."Sara said while laughing.

Asmara touched her cheeks to remove her blush,seeing this Ayesha held her hand and said suppressing her laugh"you are not blushing?it's just the blush you applied while doing makeup??and Sara don't tease my cute bhabi."

They were talking when Aliya came,she greeted them and then hugged Ayesha.Asmara was feeling uncomfortable in her presence because she was furiously gazing at Asmara.

When Ayesha was taken to the stage.Sara also went alongwith her.Asmara was going to get on stage when Aliya came with a bowl of soup,pretending to get on stage she poured the soup on Asmara intentionally.

"Ahh!Asmara screamed trying to control her tears,standing up from couch because her hand got burnt and was causing immense pain.

"I am sorry,so sorry dear."Aliya showed fake concern.

"Asmara started crying and ran away from the stage,while running she bumped into Wali.Wali saw her teary eyes when she ran to restroom saying sorry.

Wali called Hashim and told him about Asmara's condition,Hashim ran towards restroom,he knocked the door and heard her sobbing.

He went inside and saw she was holding her hand crying badly.

"What happened? Why are you crying?"Hashim asked with concerned voice.

He took her hand in his,she hissed in pain.He saw that her hand was all red,like it was burnt."Oh Allah!how did you burn your hand? and still you haven't applied any ointment."

"Come,we are going home."Hashim said.

But she didn't move a bit.

"Asmara please,let's go,just apply some ointment and we will come back hmm?"Hashim said looking into her eyes.

"I am waiting in the car,go tell your Mama or Sara,we will come back soon."Hashim added.

"Plea..please don't...tell Mama I am okay,please."Asmara pleaded.

"Okay let's go."Hashim said and they went outside,sat in car,Hashim started driving,Asmara was still sobbing holding her hand.

"Relax,just 5 more minutes we will be home."Hashim said trying to relax her.

They reached Hashim's home,Hashim exited the car,came on her side and opened the door for her,after that they went inside.

"Come with me Asmara...in room,I'll apply the ointment on your hand."Hashim said.

They entered Hashim's room."Please sit,I'll get the ointment."

She nodded and sat on the bed,Hashim brought ointment and sat in front of her on the couch.He held her hand and started applying ointment.

Ah!she shrieked.

"I am sorry,it will be alright,just a minute."Hashim said applying ointment gently.

His phone started ringing...

"Asmara can you please take phone from my pocket,my hands are dirty,call might be important."Hashim requested.

Asmara hesitantly move forward and took phone out of his pocket.

"Who is calling?"asked Hashim.

"Ayesha Api."Asmara told slowly.

"Attend the call,put it on speaker"Hashim said.

When the call connected

"Yes Ayesha,everything ok?"Hashim asked still holding Asmara's hand.

"Idiot,where are you? and your wife is also missing she don't have her phone so we all are tensed."

Asmara's eyes widened in shock.Hashim gave a light squeez to her hand assuring her everything is okay.She nodded.

"Ayesha,don't panic and listen Asmara burnt her hand so we came home,her dress is also spoiled,is there any extra dress which she can wear?Hashim asked.

"So brother,you are spending lovey dovey time with your wifey and here we all were tensed."

Hashim and Asmara both looked towards each other,Asmara started hicupping listening to Ayesha's words.

Hashim smiled lightly unnoticed by Asmara.

"Cut the call Asmara!"Hashim said.

Asmara immediately cut the call.

"Go freshen up,I'll bring something for you to wear,there is bathroom."Hashim said pointing towards bathroom.

Asmara nodded and went inside.

She washed her face,and combed her hair when Hashim knocked the door and giving her a greyish blue dress said"wear this and come out,we will get late otherwise."

She came out changing her dress looking simple yet elegant.

Asmara's look👆

Hashim admired her secretly and said"let's go."

They left for venue.

After reaching there Hashim said

"Take care of your hand and avoid touching hot things...hmm."

They went inside,Asmara's mother came and asked "where were you beta?we were tensed and your hand...is it okay?"

"Yes Mama!I am okay."Asmara said.

After that Ayesha's rukhsati time came,Hashim cried hugging her sister.Everyone went home afterwards.
