Mr. M

Dedicated to Jacqui ;)


Well, lets see. I didn't know Mr. M before. It wasn't a love story or a long term relationship. It wasn't a family relation as well. I just knew his aunts, lets say she was a friend of the family, who knew me & always liked me so much. Mr. M was always dear to her heart. He wanted to get married & what he wished for in a wife was all in me .. so she told him about me.

He trusted her talk .. She swore we're a match!

He then came to me to at work. of course I was clueless .. He acted like a client & asked me many questions concerning my work. I was working really hard at the time & I tried to help him as much as I can. Now, when I think about it .. it feels stupid! I really thought that he was serious.

The funny thing is, as he was preparing to leave, He said: Do you need anything??

I didn't reply .. I was like: what?!

He liked me & asked his mom to ask for my hand. His mom called mine. Then the regular thing started .. My family asked about him, his personality, his reputation. They simply liked him.

It was last summer, 10 days before my vacation .. My mom asked to talk to me .. a serious talk & it was "Theres a man asking for your hand. His name is M. He's one year older. He's studying & will be graduating in January. He's an only boy with 4 sisters. bla bla bla ........ Would you care to see him?"

I asked her to give me sometime to think about it. It took me few days to think if I would consider him. Then I realized .. What the heck .. he could be the one. I said Ok.

We set a date so he'll come & I'd meet him. I didn't know of course at first that it was him the same guy at work. At my work I see tons of faces everyday & I cannot concentrate on each one of them.

He was still a mystery man to me.

The first time I saw him. I was thinking in my head " Do we match?"

He came smelling so delicious & looking so neat. He a good looking guy. very masculine. he's an athlete. tall. very well spoken & confident. From the first minute, he was very honest, open & direct. I couldn't notice that he was nervous at all. I was!

To me, it was terrible. I couldn't say a word. I was just trying to listen & absorb whatever he was saying. I felt that He could be the man I live with for the rest of my life. I can see that he is very ambitious & smart. I like that in a man.

After few times of sitting together, discussing the main matters in a couples life, I had to decide. Yes or No?

It was the hardest decision I had to take in my entire life. I prayed so much & I thought alot .. In 20 years .. Do I see myself growing old with him?

I wanted to take forever to give an answer .. but I had to do it eventually. I couldn't postpone anymore. Both my heart & mind said YES!

As I got to know Mr. M more & more everyday .. I'm falling hard for him. I never imagined that one can fall in love in few days!

Its really wonderful to realize that you took the right choice. Now when we speak, we always wonder how come we fell in love in such a short term. I feel like I've known him forever .. He is the only one I feel completely myself around. I can say anything .. I can do silly things .. & never feel weird!

I love the way he makes me smile .. I love the feeling of my hands in his. Mine looks so tiny next to his Mashallah! I love when he hugs me .. Its the safest feeling in the world. It feels like a baby between his mom's arms. He's so smart .. He knows just the right things to say. He can make me laugh. He makes me feel more beautiful everyday. With him, I feel like I'm the only girl in his eyes .. He knows how to let me melt by his words. He's simply amazing.

Love is the most beautiful feeling anyone can experience .. specially when its with the right person .. My Mr. M.

I love you!

I'm back! [Part II ]

Back to [Part II ].

Well .. as soon as I arrived home, I started getting into my gown with the help of my mom & sister. I started putting on body lotion, scents & scented powder & stuff .. At the end .. I felt SO beautiful!

Finally .. I could enjoy the day & I forgot all the worries.

When I was done, I heard My groom entering the house, with his aunt & sister. My heart almost dropped! I was shaky & I felt like I'm gonna faint. Then, it was time for my to go down. My father & brothers were with me. I kissed them goodbye & went down the stairs.

I went down slowly .. smiling & shaking. first .. I saw the photographers .. I tried to stick my eyes on those. I saw my mom, her eyes were full of tears. My sister too. then I saw my sister in law .. thats a face I know. Then her aunt, her smile was so relieving. I turned my face & tadaaa .. There he was, my groom. His eyes was shining .. with a beautiful smile. I knew he was impressed to see me looking so different. I felt so beautiful in his eyes.

After saluting everyone, They all left to the ceremony being held in my mother in law's house & they left us alone with the photographers. I was so nervous thinking that now I'm standing by my HUSBAND. I felt so much pressure. We took many beautiful pictures. The only thing I was concentrating on was .. "Be flexible .. these photos will remain a memory forever!" .
Later, the photographers left, we were left alone. We chated for a while. My groom was so confident, relaxed, Joking & trying to break the ice. He looked so good & Smelled amazing.

Later, we left our house, his sisters has rented us a limo as a surprise gift. We jumped into the limo .. it was around 9:15 .. My groom told the driver to drive around until 10 pm, then take us to his family's house .. where the ceremony was taking place. Mr. M was so relaxed, chatting, joking & flirting. I was SO nervous. At the time I started to ignore my worries around my Mr. M & I started worrying about my entrance to the ceremony.
We arrived to the house. I took a deep breath & descended from the car. I held hands with my groom & walked up the stairs. First I entered a room to fix the way I look, my aunt and sister joined me. Then I gathered myself to do the BIG entrance. Rashid Al MAjid's song was playing. I tried to concentrate on 2 things .. Smile & Slow down!
I did it .. My entrance was perfect .. just the way I imagined it!
I looked at the faces of everyone .. everyone was happy & stunned!
I felt such a confidence boost!
It was amazing .. truely a day I'll never forget.

End of [ Part II ].
