Beep!woken by the sound of the alarm clock.I decide to ignore it and go back to sleep when a familiar voice calls my name.Who else could it be if not adda Nana.Sahar wake up,did you forget you are going to aunty Humaira's house,I heard adda Nana's voice yell.I had totally forgotten about that. I got up from my bed and went into the bathroom. I took a bath of about thirty minutes and and came out.I applied my body yogurt and wore a black abaya.I did some light makeup.I tied my hair in a loose bun and rolled my viel.I changed my phone case to black and went downstairs.I forgot to introduce myself.My name is Sahar Muhammad and I am 19 yrs old.I am the last born of my family. I have two siblings,adda Nana and and ya Adam.Adda Nana is 23 while ya Adam is 21.We call our parents maman Nana and Baban Nana.Maman Nana is a house wife at the age of 41 while baban Nana is a business taycoon at the age of 53.
I went to the dining table and saw maman Nana eating breakfast. I greeted her and she asked me how my night went, I told her it went good and I started eating my breakfast. I stood up and was about to leave when maman Nana told me to greet aunty Humaira and uncle Sadiq.I was about to go out when I bumped into a familiar face. Who else could it be if not adda Nana.She told me she was glad I was leaving and I told her I was glad to be leaving her.I went outside and saw ya Adam waiting for me I apologized and he gestured me to enter the car.I entered the car and the ride to aunty Humairah's house was silent.We reached the house in the next thirty minutes.We entered the house and the nice scent of bakhoor welcomed us.We entered the palour and we met aunty Humairah.I hugged her and she asked me how I was doing. I told her I was good and that I missed her. I asked her where Adeeva was and she said she was upstairs in her room.Aunty Humairah called the maid,Hadiza and she came.She greeted us and we greeted back.Aunty Humairah told her to get us snacks and drinks.She came back shortly with a tray of snacks and drinks.She dropped it on the table and left.They were samosas,spring rolls and meat pie on the tray. I ate some samosas and decided to go up to Adeeva's room.
When I entered,I heard her on the phone talking to Aiman(her boyfriend). I waited for her to finish and as soon as she was done, I hugged her in a tight embrace.We talked about everything and anything and I told her ya Adam was downstairs.She went downstairs and greeted him and we continued gisting. I asked where Ihman and Zayyad were and she said they went to their grandmother's house.
It was time for magribh prayers.We prayed and went downstairs to eat dinner when I saw ya Adam gisting with an unfamiliar face. I greeted them and whispered into Adeeva's ear and asked who he was and she said he was her uncle,ya Asim.She ended up asking ya Adam weather he knew him and he said he was his course mate in university.We finished eating dinner and I said my bye's to ya Adam.I went to the kitchen to drop the plates when I saw him,ya Asim. I drop the plates and was about to go out when I felt something holding me.As soon as I turned,I slapped him right accross the face and asked why he was misbehaving with me.When I was done shouting, I realized that he was not the one holding me but my cloth was stuck to the kitchen cabinet.I wanted to apologize but then he angrily stormed out of the kitchen.
