December(The last month of the year)

30th December.

I finally accept that preparing for a wedding is stressful,my wedding date have been fixed two days ago but things had been so hectic. I ran to Salima's house early in the morning to check on her and the baby, I then went to school because we had a meeting regarding our sign out.Immediately after going back home, I thought I will get some rest but mama dragged me to the kitchen utensils mall to buy kitchen accessories.After that, I was finally happy and eagerly welcoming my bed when Aunty Jami came saying that she have collected a catering school for me.

I protested saying "I already know how to cook Aunty Jami," I am thankful that she thought of me but seriously I am too busy now adays for a catering school "I know,but still you need to learn new things.A way to a man's heart is his stomach.Abdallah will love you more if you can cook delicious food." Despite my nonchalance,I had to fill the form and then go and submit it to the catering school. I found out that it is a 4 months program and I fought the urge to cry.

I didn't even get a chance to talk to A that much because he is also busy in the hospital.

Immediately after reaching home from the catering school, I looked for mama everywhere but she was nowhere to be seen,I later found her in my room rummaging through my wardrobe.

To say I was surprised will be an understanding "Mama?" I questioned with my mouth hanging "Oh Hudaya,you are back?" She questioned and I nodded my head throwing my bag on the bed as I rip the veil off my body.

"What are you doing?" I asked and she smiled bringing out a skirt and blouse ankara "This one will do." She said to herself.

"Abdallah's mother called,she said that she wants to see you regarding the lefe case." Not again.I am grateful that A's mother want to respect my taste in fashion while preparing my lefe,but I can tell A everything through the phone.

I don't have to go there,do I?

"I am so tired right now, I don't have to go there mama.I am shy." I stated "I will just tell A through the phone." I stated "This is ladies talk." Mama stated sternly "I can talk to Ablah then," I replied smiling.

"I am so tired,it has been a hectic day." I stated in a whiny tone "Hudaya,your mother in law love you,don't misuse that opportunity." Mama advised "It would be rude to just turn down her request,she knows that their is phone but she still invited you," Okay mama is really making sense.

"So just go..." She stated and I nodded my head.

I don't have any other option.

"I will just freshen up then," I stated and mama smiled at me happily "Okay."

I went to the bathroom and took a shower then put on the clothes mama chose for me, I did my head tie in a simple style then slung my veil on my shoulder.

First rule:Smell extremely nice!

And that is what am going to do, I sprayed perfume on my whole body and then carried my beautiful bag.

I dragged my legs out and mama smiled at me "Masha Allah," She mouthed to herself making me smile more.

"So who is going to take me? I don't even know the house." I panicked a little "She sent me the address and yeah,your brother will take you." She stated smiling at me "Calm down." She mouthed.I am very sure she understands my feeling,meeting your mother in law to be is really scary.I am so shy and nervous all together.

Yaya came out and we hit the road "So....meeting mother in law for the second time?" He questioned making me smack him "The first meeting was so embarrassing, I just hope she doesn't think am crazy." I hoped "She doesn't,she really likes you because she thinks you are very fun to be with."
