aru2019 This is for you❤

It's been five days since the party. Everyone has been busy with their lives. Zara is readying to open up her bakery. Her parents supported her in every possible way they could.

Zara folded the praying mat, keeping it inside her closet as usual. The past two days had been hectic to her, as she moves around finding the right location for her bakery.

Grabbing her phone from the nightstand, she dialed her friend's number "Hello Manal, are you coming or should I come over?" she said in a quiet tone. There was a moment of silence from the background before she heard her friend's voice.

"You can come over but right now I'm not at home, my mom sent me on an errand so before you arrive I'll be back" Manal explained followed by a sound of a horn, the next thing Zara heard is her cussing.

"What is it? why are you cussing?" Zara asked

"There was some man trying to turn my ear deaf with his horns. Bye for now"

"Okay," she muttered hanging up. making her way downstairs she meet her mom who was busy talking on the phone maybe with her clients.

"Alright, I will call my sister in charge of the design and get back to you" plopping herself beside her mom, she rests her head on her shoulder.

"Mom" she started. Farah glanced at her daughter through the side. She knows when Zara has something to say.

"I'm going to Manal's house we're going out to check on the location," she said quietly.

"But you know that your dad doesn't like it when you go out alone, take the driver with you"

"No need because we're going together with Amir" fishing out her phone she texted him.

"Be careful and make sure you come back early"

"Insha Allah mom" hugging her mom, she rose up from her sitting position and was about to make her way upstairs, when her Mom called again.

"By the way, Fawwaz is back" Zara's eyes widened in surprise.

"Really?"

"Yeah, I just spoke to Myrah and she told me he came back yesterday" a smile made it way out of her lips. So he came back.

"Alright, maybe I'll stop by Aunt Myrah's house," she said.

"But don't cause trouble, you know Fawwaz is not like you guys, an intelligent and quite Guy" Zara resist the urge to roll her eyes. He might be intelligent and quite as her mom said but he can't be quiet around her.

"Ya Allah Manal, can you be quick. We have to be fast before someone purchases the building before us" a hiss made it way out of her lips while glaring at Amir who has been horning continuously.

"Easy dear don't strangle me. Let's go" her friend said slipping on her bag. As they made their way towards the car, Manal sat at the back while Zara sat at the front. peeping at Amir she gave him a dirty look.

"What?"

"Why must you horn loudly, do you want to turn our ears deaf?" putting on her seat belt, she wined down the car window.

"Why can't I horn when you've kept me waiting for the past ten minutes. I don't understand why girls take so much time dressing up" Amir muttered roaring the engine to life.

"I heard you and that's because we're different from you guys" he was about to answer her when Manal interjected.

"Why can't you guys talk normally for a minute without fighting. At this stage, we might not reach our destination"
