THIRD PERSON'S POV :
Wearing cherry red coloured lehenga which was full of golden work she was sitting in the corner of the room. Her neck was covered with the gold choker and her ears were decorated with matching earrings, which were dangling and shining beautifully. Hands full of henna and wrists full of bangles.
"You are Looking beautiful, stay blessed," Said one of her aunts after cupping her face.
"Indeed, My daughter is so beautiful" Her mother compliment proudly while adjusting her daughter's veil.
"Qazi Sahab is coming for Nikkah" Everyone present in the room heard the manly voice after a knock on the already opened door. That was her father's voice.
"Do you Rimsha Ateeq Baig daughter of Ateeq Baig, Accepts M. Saad son of Late M. Yunus as your husband, in the favour of 2 Lakh as your dower (mehr)?" Qazi (priests) asked and she looked at her father who was standing beside Qazi with a few other men.
"Do you Rimsha Ateeq Baig daughter of Ateeq Baig, Accept M. Saad son of Late M. Yunus as your husband, in the favour of 2 Lakh as your dower ( Mehr)?" Again the same question, but she didn't reply
''Dear say ye..." Her mother was saying something to her in a hushed tone when but stopped by the priest.
"You can't force her. It is a girl's choice if she wants this marriage or not!" Qaazi Sahab delivered his homily, Rimsha's parents face became colourless as they didn't want to experience disrespect in society one more time.
"I'm asking last time. Do you Rimsha Ateeq Baig daughter of Ateeq Baig, Accept M. Saad son of Late M. Yunus as your husband, in the favour of 2 Lakh as your dower ( Mehr)?" Qazi Sahab asked, everyone was looking at Rimsha hopefully
"I do"
"I do"
"I do"
She said in a hushed tone and many tears escaped from her eyes. Her father smiled and patted her head, her mother embraced her, With teary eyes but none of them know what she was feeling.
========
"Do you M. Saad son of Late M. Yunus accept Rimsha Ateeq Baig daughter of Ateeq Baig as your wife in favour of 2 Lakh as dower ( more) ?"
"I do"
'From all my heart and soul' He said to himself with an ear to ear grin.
Qazi Sahab asked the same question to him more than two times and he accepted Rimsha as his wife happily
