Chapter 42| I'm Sorry
Sabha's POV
It was finally the day I was going to be Mrs. Malik.
After 2 months of me and Amir being separated we would finally be together forever, me and my Amir. Rayyana was on her flight along with Asad and would be here soon which I was excited about.
Rabia, and Soojin were already here. Soojin's reputation had gone under after she converted, and news of her engagement going down also ruined her reputation a little bit. Her father was still looking for a man to hand his daughter and company too.
I felt bad for her, she had dark circles and looked horrible. Me and Rabia had to force her to shower and get herself together. She managed to pull her self up enough to attend my wedding. But something was off about her and me and Rabia couldn't figure out why or what it is.
There was a knock on my door and Hamza my 6 year old brother walked in. "Hamza! Your not supposed to see me until I come outside." Hamza laughed at that "Yeah yeah, I'm here to walk you down the aisle."
I raised an eyebrow and bend down "Dad told me to walk you down the aisle, He's still recovering but he wishes you the best." I frowned at him. He was talking to dad? I wanted Hamza not too, I didn't want him to follow in my dad's footsteps.
My mom walked in and started crying "Mashallah, my daughter is so beautiful." She hugged me and instead of me crying I felt sort of mad. She pulled away and shooed Hamza out of the room after seeing my mood.
"Mama, how could you?" My mom shushed me and looked around as if someone was recording us. "How could you let Hamza talk to that man?" Mama tutted and pulled a strand of hair behind my ear.
"Beta he is still your father." I shook my head pulling her hand away from me "No mama, I don't want Hamza to follow in his footsteps." Mama lightly smiled at me "He won't."
I groaned "And how do you know that? Maybe there's a bad side to something, there isn't always a bright side!" I watched as her face scrunched up like she does when she's deeply offended.
A women came inside the room "It's time." She said and then left, I looked at my mom instantly regretting what I did. This wasn't the way I wanted to say goodbye to her. "Mama..." I trailed off not really knowing what to say.
In a way I was right, wasn't I? If Hamza turns out like my dad my mom will be heartbroken. My mom put on her fake smile that she does when she doesn't want to hear anything "Good luck." Was all she said as she walked out of the room.
I held Hamza's hand as I walked down the aisle, everyone awed at him and he grunted lightly making me chuckle. He hated it when people baby'd him. "I'm turning 7 soon! I'm not a baby anymore." He would always say.
Suddenly, I felt tears prick my eyes. I was going to leave my mom and my brother. Amir and I talked and we both agreed that I would live in Canada with him because one he can't move his company over and two Rayyana is there, as well as Asad.
My mom said she was perfectly happy living in Pakistan, she said Canada seemed like a rich company and she didn't belong there. I cried that night because her words deeply affected me.
I looked to my right and saw Rabia, Soojin, Rayyana, And Asad all smiling at me and recording. I smiled and waved at them.
Then, my attention turned to Amir my soon to be husband. He looked handsome in his black suit, the theme for our wedding was black and gold. My mom didn't like it but then she stopped complaining after I told her it was my wedding.
I feel bad now.
I held onto Amir's hand as he and I sat down on the bench on the stage. "You look beautiful, even better then I imagined." I blushed and whispered a small "Thank you." I looked around for my mom and Hamza and saw them talking to Rayyana and Asad.
The girls came up to me and stood behind me all posing for the camera's. "Congratulations Sabha!" Rayyana said hugging me "I can't wait for us to live together in Canada!" I smiled at her and nodded.
"Congrat's." Soojin said nodding at me, I smiled and nodded at her too. Then Rabia said the same and we all just stood there basking in each other's comfort.
I'll miss Rabia and Soojin.
I cleared my throat, I had to save my tears for after the wedding. After millions of pictures and eating tons of food, it was time to say goodbye to my mom and Hamza.
We walked slowly to the car as The cameraman focused on us, sad music was playing on the background.
I turned to my friends and family and I hugged them all. Me and Amir were about to go on a flight to Canada in 2 hours, so for now we would be staying in a hotel.
I hugged my mom and that was when the waterworks came out "I'm sorry mom, I am so sorry." My mom pulled away from me smiling, she kissed my forehead and said "It's okay." She then rubbed a hand on my head "May ALLAH keep you happy."
Rayyana and I discussed the flight as we finally said goodbye to Rabia and Soojin, we did a group hug and cried together.
Rayyana and I agreed to meet at the gate, and then me and Amir were off.
Rayyana's POV
I watched as Sabha's car drove off, I turned to Rabia and Soojin who were wiping there tears. Everyone started packing up and going home. Me, Rabia, Soojin, Asad, Sabha's mom and brother all stayed behind.
Sabha's mom was crying so we comforted her making sure she felt okay. We all laughed at all the memories and before we knew it, it was time for mine and Asad's flight.
We all arrived at the airport and we all hugged one last time before me, Sabha, Asad, and Amir boarded the plane.
Asad and Amir decided to sit together because they hadn't talked for a while, so me and Sabha sat together.
"Have you noticed Soojin has been acting weird?" I nodded "Yeah, I wonder why." Sabha's phone pinged with a text, she opened it and scrunched her eyebrows.
"it's from Maha." she watched as Maha typed something "She said I'm sorry." She turned to me "Sorry for what?" I shrugged, she quickly texted her back and then Sabha gasped.
Her phone dropped and she stood there not moving. "Sabha? SABHA?" I shook her but she stood still not moving.
Amir rushed over "What happened?" He asked taking Sabha into his lap and cuddling her. "She got a text from Maha..." I looked at her phone that had fallen and picked it up.
"Excuse me, The flight is about to take off so if you can please go back to your seats." A hostess said smiling down at us.
"Cant you fucking see my wife's not feeling good?" The hostess winced a little "Sorry, we will sit down soon, our friend is having a panic attack." I gently told her.
The hostess took out the emergency mask they keep just in case the plane is going under. We put it on Sabha's face and we watched as she slowly breathed In and out. "Sorry man, is it fine if Sabha sit's with me?" Asad nodded "Of course." Amir took Sabha and sat her next to him.
"What happened Jaan?" Amir asked holding her hand.
Sabha looked at him and started crying into his chest. Amir looked over at me and I gulped before showing him the text Maha had sent her.
"I'm sorry Sabha, but your dad passed away."
