Amaya's POV.

I was getting dressed in my room when Sam came into the room. She looked worried. So I decided to ask her. Whenever she looked sad and didn't talk ,she expects the second person to ask her what happened. "Sister Sam?" I called her. "Huh?" She answered. " What happened now?" I asked still trying to fold my hair into a bun. "I'm feeling a little bit bad sweety. I shouldn't have lied to mom you know." She said. I looked at her and smiled. Sometimes Sam acts like she's younger than I am,especially when she does something awkward. "Don't worry same,Sister Ayush will manage. But if she finds out you tried to escape by getting her into trouble, then,you know how its gonna all end." I said finishing up my hair do. "ya ya i know". She answered. Just then, i hear mom calling onto me. She must be done already. "Amu you never get ready on time". Mom shouted. "Coming mom. I just need to wrap my Hijab." I answered. I quickly wrap up and token my bag to leave.  "Bye Sam. Catch up wit you later." I said going out. "Bye sweedy ".she answered trying to get a good side to finish up her sleep.

     

       It was already time for zuhr prayer. I had ti speed up the work because mom was with me. She detest long time shopping. Arrrgh! I wanted to spend the whole day. I went straight for the bathroom after our arrival back home. I took a bath to satisfy my boiling anger of not taking time to shop. I came out after performing my ablution and looked at the time. It was 1:30. I dried my hair,took out the prayer mat from the drawer by the other end of the room and spread it facing the Qibla. I offered the prayer,did my adhkar, and stood up to search for my phone. I called up Adila. Her phone rang but there was no answer. I tried the second time and luckily, she picked up. "Assalamu alaikum Amaya,sorry i didn't pick the call. I was running an errand for my Dad." She said. "Its okay. It  nothing. I actually called to remind you about our gathering tomorrow.  I didn't inform my Dad that i organised it in his name. I want it to be a Suprise for him". I told her. "Its okay Amu. We'll make preparations". She said. "And yes!". I started. "Make all the sisters available please. I don't want it to appear so bland." I completed. "Don't worry Amaya. I'll handle everything well." she answered trying to calm me down. "Thank you so very much. ". I answered and i hanged up.

   I woke up upon hearing the adhan for Asr prayer. I didn't realize that i had slept off without eating. I rushed to the bathroom to perform ablution.

After i had observed my salat, i went to get something to eat. After filling up my stomach, i decided to look for Sam. I hadn't seen her since i came back from the mall. And by the way,she doesn't like going out without me because i knew every nook and crany of Paris. "Sam?Sam?". I shouted but no reply. Just then,Mon came out looking dusty from head to toe."Mom? What is this?". I asked her. "You look so eww mom. Seriously." I said. "Amuuu!?" she called. "Ok sorry sorry. But seriously mom, what happened?" I asked her. She sighed and started "Well actually dear, i was reminicing what we used to do back then in Nigeria."She answered. "Oh come on mom. Not that again." I said. "What do you mean Amu? Nigeria is such a great place you know. Your staying here abroad has really corrupted you girls. " she answered. "No mamma, don't start with the lectures." I said finding my way back to my room. "No mamma,ye ye ye ye." she said trying to mimick what i had just said. And i left smirking at her.

   Today is going to be a great day Insha Allah.  But i don't know why i'm having an awkward feeling. "Come on Amu,don't waste time. Lets get to the venue fast. Sister Nafisa and Ayush have left already. We don't want dad finding out you know". Sam said while dragging me out of the room. "Know what sweetheart?". Dad asked. "No nothing papa. Its just, you know,girly stuffs and all that." She answered stammering. "Sam,remember you don't know how to lie okay?". Dad told her. And i burst into an uncontrollable laughter. "Stop it Amu!"Same whispered to me while nudging me."Help me out here". She said. "Yes girls. What is it you're hiding from me."?. Dad asked again. I quickly interrupted before Sam would land us into something else again. "Actually dad,its something we can't tel you now. It's a surprise. You'll get to know about it soon. Remember the location okay? 3:pm on the dot. Please make it there." I answered. "Okay okay my princesses,  i will." promise dad?" Sam asked. "Promise". He answered. Alright then,see you there dad. Sam shouted and hugged dad. "See you princess ". He answered giving her a peck on the cheek.  "Bye dad". I said too hugging him. "Bye my little Angel." He said holding my cheeks. And we left for the venue.

   The girls had done a great job there. The party had already started. We made our way through the back door. I heard sister Ayush talking on the microphone. Suddenly sister Nafisa stopped is my the entrance looking boooooooom! "Sooorrrryy"! We said in unison. She smiled and hugged us. "Careful next time." She said. And we left for the stage.

   "Sister Nafeesa? Who's that? It looks like a guy. Wait." i shouted. "Its... Wait what's HE doing here?". I asked angrily. "But i can't see anyone there". Sammy said. "Look over there. Its him.". I answered.  "Ooooh, i see him." Sis Nafeesa shouted. Its.....
