Arrivals...We got a call from India that my family is leaving early in the morning for Pakistan. They were supposed to reach Lahore in the afternoon. We were expecting a call from them in the afternoon so that we could arrange for someone to pick them up from Lahore and bring them over to Pindi. We didnt receive any call from them till 7pm. Ammi was getting worried about them. I was cool. I knew my younger brother was with them so they wouldnt end up in any trouble.
Finally at around 9pm we received a call from my brother saying they have already reached Pindi and are waiting for us to pick them up. We all went to pick them up. Half of them arrived by one bus, remaining arrived on next one. The first group that arrived didnt have the phone numbers hence the confusion. We thought all is well that ends well. Finally they were here for the shaadi and on time. They were all welcomed with flowers and gifts. Then late night they were served with wonderful food.
Next day was our Mayoon function. I was looking forward to it. We dont have this function in Indian shaadis.
