"Have you packed her things?"Mother asked Fareeda

"Yes mother"she replied taking a sip of her drink

"I don't feel like letting you go dear"Mother said sadly

We were seated in Fareeda's room with Hashim's mother,anty Maryam and Mother's friend,Anty Aisha.

Yesterday night I received natural skin treatment it made my skin more softer.
I also had henna design and my hair was plaited into small plaits.

Now I am dressed in a fitted skirt and flay blouse
My head tie was tied beautifully by Fareeda.I was wearing a black material with dark blue rose design on it then my head was covered with a big dark blue veil.
My shoes were shinning sandals,I said no to heels.

I have medium make up because I told the make up artist to do so.
I decided to call home.

"As Salamu alaikum"inna answered after it rang thrice

"Wa alaikumus salam"I replied
"Inna, it's Malak"I added softly

"Malak,I was expecting your phone yesterday but your father disconnected the telephone"Inna explained

"I tried it,no wonder"I said sadly

"Yes,so are you a bride yet?"inna asked in a teasy tone

"No,they are yet to call"i replied feeling shy

"May Allah bless you with strength for the upcoming challenges"she prayed

"AMEEN,take care of yourself and everyone"I said with a sad smile

"You too"she said softly

I hung up and I smiled at mother sadly
"Its going to be okay"she mouthed

Mother's phone rang

"Hello"she said after picking up

"Really?"she asked with her eyes widened

She quickly hung up

"Malak,you are married "Mother announced
And I felt like the world has stopped
What have i done?

"Really?"Fareeda asked excitedly

"Masha Allah"Anty Maryam said

"Allah ya kawo chiki da goyo (May Allah bless you with children"Anty Aisha added

Children?with him?no way.

"Let's get her down"Mother said

"And bring her things"Anty Aisha reminded

Fareeda excitedly snapped selfies with me then mother sprayed more perfume on me.

I heard mother whisper some supplications on our way to the living room.

Anty Maryam,Anty Aisha and Mother gave me alot of advise concerning how to be a dutiful wife.

Few hours later,the males came back.
Kamal was dressed in a Black caftan then dark blue cap.
They planned it!

after exchange of pleasantries,they took my three luggages to kamal's car.

We snapped pictures and it was time for me to leave again

Within the last two and the half months this became my second home and I am leaving it
Again.

"I will come by more now"Fareeda assured biting her lip to prevent herself from crying because i told her not to.

"Take care of yourself"Fareed said sadly

"May Allah bless you"Father said softly,I whispered Ameen
