"We are Izyan' s parents.." Just hearing it in next second she stood up on her feets and her eyes widely open. She didn't believe her ears what she heard just second ago.

She was stunned on this new information. She felt like someone snatched floor underneath from her feets.

In mean time her mother entered in the room.

"Duaa! What happened why you face became so pale. Your are not having fever right?" She worriedly asked seeing her lost condition.

She just shook her head in replied. In all time guests looking at them.

When Sanaya came forward to her then she noticed the couple's present.

"Asalam o alaikum. Sorry I didn't notice you before." Saying that she took seat against them.

"Walekum asalam. No worry." Zoya said with smile.

"Duaa! Why are you standing? Go make some tea for them." She commanded her daughter who was busy in her own world.

She left to kitchen.

She was trying to arrange everything fast. But her mind was messed up now. She went to freeze take out milk but she took out water bottle. She looked at it. She realized it and took out right thing. She was making mistakes again and again. But correcting it.

She was happy that he is alright or she came to hear something from his side. But confused at the same time.

"Aapi! Why are taking to long? come fast na." Anaya entered in kitchen which gain her attention.

"Just one minute." She hurriedly filled cups of tea.

"Abbu came?" She asked and placed the plates of snacks in tray with it.

"Ya.. few minutes ago. He is now talking with them." She replied. Duaa just nodded.

"They are really Izyan Bhai's parents?" She asked curiously after moment.

"That is what they are saying." Duaa told her matter of fact.

"I thought he have no family. But why they came here and also without him?" She confusely asked.

This is also running in her mind. But she had no answer any of that.

"I don't know. Please take it and serve them." She passed the tray to her sister. Who made sore face but obeyed her.

Lots of thought running in her mind. Her mind jumble up. But suddenly she heard something which shook her to core.

"We really came to talk about something important." Aahil Javed stated.

"Yes! What is it?" Hamza sayed asked him.

"We are here to ask Duaa' s hand for Izyan in marriage." He said the reason of their visit.

Listening that her family shocked. They didn't thought it was reason of their coming.

In kitchen she held platform for not to lose her balance. Her heart started beating so fast. She was afraid if they knew then informed her family how she rejected their son.

"Actually Izyan like her and want to marry her. We also like Duaa for him." Zoya quietly added after moment.

On zoya's voice her legs gave out she tumbled down on the floor.

"I don't know what to answer you. I didn't expect it." Her father said thoughtfully.

"You can take your time. We will wait for your reply." Aahil told kindly. On which He nodded in return.

After some time Anaya returned to kitchen.

"Aapi! Why are you sitting on the floor?" She confusely asked. But she was silent.

"Your whole body shivring." She pointed out. Kneeled front of her and worriedly looked at her.

"Nothing . I just don't feeling well. Anyway They left?" She changed the topic but her voice was shaky.

"Ya.. " she replied.

"I am going to bed early. Don't wake me up for if I fall asleep." Saying that she stood up but again she felt dizziness.

"I help you to get the room." Anaya supported her who was going to fall down again.

They reached their room. She laid down on the bed and covered herself in duvet.

"Aapi you are having fever. Just take a medicine before sleep." She was concerned for her sister.

"Anaya! Just leave me alone for some time. I want to rest." She requested.

"Fine." Saying that she turned off the lights and left the room.

Duaa closed her eyes but his voice rang in her ears.

I like you. I want to marry you.

I am just confessing my feelings that I love you.

With that tears escaped from her eyes. After few minutes she fallen in deep slumber while sobbing in her sleep.

*****************

One week passed.

In night she was sitting silently on the bed. But her mind not calm at all. Lots of thoughts running in her mind.

When she wake up next day. First thought came to her mind that run to him and say him how much she was regretting about her behavior. How much sorry she was.

But knowing very well that he was not going to forgive her easily. So she stopped herself doing like that stupidity.

Then why his parents came with proposer?

What They knew everything what happened between them in that night?

She was doubt on it.

Was he ready to forgive her for it?

Did he really like her and wanted to marry her.?

But after harshly got rejected by her now he want it or not?

Lots of questions but she didn't have any answers of it.

She released long breath and decided to sleep but Anaya entered in the room.

"What are you doing on mobile?" She asked her who very engrossed in it.

"I am online searching about him." She informed it but her gaze fixed on the screen.

Duaa sighed and shook her head knowing who is he.

"See i just Google his name and ten pages open. I can't believe that he is that much rich." She exclaimed it.

She knew very well how much rich he is. But here she was who taunted him about his status. Now compared to his status she can't stand in front him.

"Oh.. my ..god Just look at his house. It is like palace." She heard her excited voice but didn't glance on it.

She didn't know personal information about the owner of group. She just needed the information about business. So she didn't get deep in his personal life. Also she didn't came to read article about his son or anything. But now remembering it she think she ignored it or slide it that why.

"Izyan Aahil Javed The owner's son of JV group. Also he is only heir of JV group. Now he returned to Pakistan after two years staying out side of the country. With his returned he take over the one of company which making lose. Saying he can turn that company successful in just three months. Seeing his confidence every one tell that business run in his blood like his father. Now every eyes on him and his every act to see how he is going to make it happen in that much short time. Let's see he will prove himself or not?" She read the one of latest article online.

"Aapi! when he was here all time then why it saying he was gone out of the contury for two years?" She confused.

"I also don't know ." She shrugged her shoulders.

"Let's forgot about it. Tell me what you thought about proposer?" She eagerly asked after putting mobile aside.

"You know I am very exciting about your marriage. I already started to plan every thing. What I am going to do or wear. We can…." She was continue saying excitedely but her mind went back when her parents talked to her about it.

........................

After two days from their visit. Her parents called her in their room.

She aware of what they want to talk her. But she was not ready for it.

After removing every thought she went to them.

She knocked before entering in their room.

"Come here beta! Sit with us." Sanaya told her daughter. She took seat front of them on the bed.

"How are you now? Did You took medicine?" Hamza concerned about his daughter who was having fever from two days.

"Abbu! I am fine. Yes, I took it." She reassured them.

"We want to talk you about proposer. I think you already knew it. What you think about it?" He asked her opinion.

"I don't know what think. I am confuse." She helplessly told them.

"Don't be." Her mother hold her hands.

"Before that we also didn't think about it. Now we think Izyan is right for you. There is lots of different between their and our status. But they are nice people. We personally know Izyan how good he is." He told her.

"But final decision there will be your's. We are not going to force you anything. So feel free to take any decision." Hamza added after moment.

She just nodded and left the room.

.............................

After five days passed but they didn't ask her anything about that matter. She knew they were giving her time which she needed to make her mind. But she didn't reach to tge decision till now.

She is confuse like before.

"Aapi! Aapi! Are you hearing me?" Anaya shook her who was busy in her world.

"Ya.. what is it?" She came to her sense and asked.

"I was asking what you decided?" She eager to know it.

"I have not decided anything. Now sleep. You have to go school tomorrow." She firmly told her while taking her mobile from her and putting aside on the side table.

"So you can cry after I sleep huh?" She remarked it. She kept silence.

"Aapi! Don't behave like this. I miss my old sister whom I annoyed and teased her all time. But now she is on silent mode. And I don't like it. At least share with me if there something disturbing you." She said with glossy eyes.

"Anaya you are very little to understand it." She said and hopelessly closed her eyes.

"I am not little anymore. I am 12. Please try to share with me." She desperately told her.

Duaa looked at her who was looking at her with hopefull eyes.

She realsed long breath before started.

"I badly hurted one of friend's feelings. She asked something from me but i rejected it. Also I taunted her and said harsh words to her. Now I am regretting for my behavior." She tried make her understand but hiding the fact that one of friend is her Bhai Izyan. Who is very dear to her.

"Just say sorry to her and ask her forgiveness." She simply replied.

"She is not talking to me. Now She doesn't here nor she wants to meet me. I don't know what to do." She helplessly informed her.

"Just give her what she asked from you. After that she will accept your sorry without second thought." She gave the solution to her.

"You think this going to work?" She was shocked to hear her but can't help and asked her.

"Ya.. I think that. This right thing to do in your situation." Saying that she laid down on the bed leaving her sister in thoughts.

All night she can't sleep. Her thoughts not leaving her mind.

****************

In morning they were having breakfast on dinning table in silent. But Duaa' s voice broke it.

"Abbu! I am ready for this marriage." She declared it while her gaze fixed on her plate.

"You sure about your decision?" He wanted to sure about it.

"Yes! I took this decision after lots of thinking." She reassure him looking in his eyes.

"You don't know how much happy I am." Saying that Sanaya hugged her daughter with glossy eyes.

"Yes! I am also very happy. I can't wait to meet Izyan Bhai now. Also annoye him as his sister in low" Anaya excitedly declared it.

Seeing her excitement all started laughing. But she just smile on it.

She clearly see the how much her family happy with her decision. She think she took right decision but not knowing what future held for her.

In the evening Hamza called his father and informed them. They were also happy listening her yes.

Next day they came with lots of presents to her house.

Zoya made her wear the ring as engagement. Duaa see the how much all excited about their marriage.

His mother wanted to make her daughter in low as soon as possible because of her health problems.

They fixed the date of their marriage. After three days their nikkah will take place and also her ruksati.

Her parents became agreed for it. She also didn't object in it. Because her studies all ready finished and beside that she didn't have any excuse for it stop.

In three days her family was busy in preparation. But she was busy thinking how to say sorry to him.

She was embarrassed to face him. After harshly rejecting him how she was ready to marry him now. Like shameless girl.

She felt humiliated how she taunted him about his status without knowing anything about him.

She was regretting since the that harsh words left from her mouth.

But she made her mind. She will do everything to get his forgiveness.

If she have to beg him for it. Then she will do that.

********************

Today is their nikkah.

In morning her bridal dress came from his side with jewellery. which now laying on the bed.

"Aapi! Your dress is so beutifull and i didn't see the like this jewellery before. So shining and it's designs so nice." She compliment while looking it. But she didn't averted her glance from outside of window.

"Anaya! Come with me. Don't trouble her." Sanaya strictly told her who made pout but followed her.

"Beta! Take some rest." Saying she patted her head and left the room.

In the evening she was ready in her bridal dress. Green dress complimented on her white skin.

She was sitting on her bed but her eyes fix on the door. While her friends was gathered around her.

She didn't want to invite them. In fact she didn't meet them after finishing exams. But her mother invited them . She couldnot stop her because she have to gave her resonance for it which she didn't want to tell anyone.

"I can't believe that machananic is non other than Izyan Javed. I think you lied to us that time so we can't grab him." Tania mocked at her.

"But I saw him working in the garage two times." Fatima reasoned out.

"Ya… when he is belong to such rich family. Why he worked there in first place?" Sana remarked.

Duaa was silent all time. But that question also present in her mind.

"Exactly. That is question. I just search about him online. He is that much rich that he not need to do work for get anything. In fact not him but ten generation after him easily spend their life like now luxurious without any trouble just sitting at home without working. After that also it willnot stop his family to call richest family in Pakistan. " Tania declared it like she didn't know.

She aware of that.

"Why he was here and…" Sana was saying but cut off by Anaya.

She stood up went to her.

"They came?" She eagerly asked.

"Yes. But I don't think you can meet him now. Imam shab is here." She informed him.

"Duaa! Why you desperate to meet him now? After nikkah you have all time with him." Sana remarked and they three started to laugh. Anaya left from there.

She sat down on bed with sad face.

She wanted to say sorry to him before their nikkah. So they can have fresh start in their life. But she felt it was impossible now.

After minutes her mother came and sat beside her. Hold her hands. Her friends left from there.

Anaya also came and side hugged her.

She knew it was time. But she suddenly felt so damm nervous. Her hands started to shiver. Sanaya squeezed her hands reassuringly like saying every thing going to fine.

Five minutes later Hamza entered in the room with some men.

Imam shab took seat on chair. Others just stood there.

He started the nikkah.

"Do you Duaa sayed daughter of Hamza sayed accept Izyan Javed son of Aahil Javed as your husband with Mahr of 30,00,000?" He asked her.

She took long breath and answered.

"Yes, I do."

After that all men left. But her father not left before patting her head lovingly.

"Beta! I am very happy. You are going to start new phrase of your life. Just be happy in your life while making others happy with you." She told her while hugging her.

She just nodded her head with her teary eyes.

"I just come." Saying that she moved back from her and left the room.

"I also want to go and see it." Anaya said sadly after moment.

"Go on. Who stopping you from it?" She said in low voice.

"Thank you so much aapi! I just come." Saying she hurriedly gave her hug and left.

After some time she entered again in room.

"Aapi! He said yes. I am so much happy. I am so much happy. Now you are married. And finally this room is mine." She pulled her in hug.

They both hugged for some times and pulled back.

"You are happy that I am leaving this house. Then why your eyes teary huh?" She pointed out.

"Me too.…. My little devil." She whispered with glossy eyes.

"Now girl let's go! It's time for you go out of this room." Tania said which get their attention.

"Let's go! Aunty gave her order." Sana said and make her stood. She hold Anaya's hand tightly feeling nervous and scare to go out face him

"Aapi! Don't worry. I am with you." She whispered in returned and hold her tightly.

They took her to the room where every one gathered. They make her sit beside him on sofa.

Duaa left her hand. Her head low and her eyes fixed on her lap. She was fidgeting her fingers in nervousness.

Some times they sat together in silent. She was felt his presence beside her but he didn't talk to her nor said salam to her.

Few times later all relatives and friends went to take dinner. They were alone. Anaya also left.

She thought it was right time to talk to him and say sorry to him before she go to his house.

"I want to tell yo-" she started but before she completed he left the room without glanced at her.

She thought he didn't listen that why she let it slide.

.........................

After three hours now she was sitting in his car beside him.

She was crying continuously. She can't stop her tears today. But it stopped listening his loud voice.

"Drive fast! You forgot how to drive." Izyan said to driver in icy voice. Which make her shuddered on her place.

"No sir." Driver replied in low voice and obeyed him.

She tried to control on her sobs but some time left from her mouth and echoed in car because of silent.

After Two hours of drive they reached his house. Which didn't look house to her but palace or mansion to her.

His family welcomed her warmly but he disappeared from her side as they èntered in.

After some time sitting in lounge.

"Beta! Take her to his room. She must be tired after long day." Zoya told her some girl.

"Yes. Tayi ammi." She replied.

She took her upstairs in his room which was long way. She almost forgot the way yo reach his room. His room ten size larger than her.

She help her in freshen up. And made her sit on his king size bed. On that four people can sleep comfortably.

She also sat down front of her.

"My name is Aaliya. I also nervous like you on my wedding night. Don't freak out. Everything going to fine." She tried to reassure her.

"Thanks for saying. But can't help it." She said in shaky voice.
