Johara's POV
"johi, johi?"
"huh?" I was so sleepy, damn my mother is waking me up.
"wake up dear"
I opened my eyes to see at the clock and believe what? IT WAS 5 IN THE MORNING!!!"it's still 5Am" I groaned
"yes dear, come we will pray fajr prayer"
"listen mum" I started with stones in my eyes "today I am going to have a very hectic day and I am not at all interested in exerting myself by doing such activities that actually doesn't make sense"
Yeah like, what's the use of that getting and sitting down again....?
"it's a prayer johara, you are performing this act for Allah alone and there are so many benefits of performing salah"
"yeah one of the benefit is ruining my sleep, now go"
I didn't like when someone ruins my sleep and my mom just did it. I don't know why she is so much into this "Allah" stuff!"johara" my mom was calling me again but a little slowly this time.
"close the door and go please you are irritating me" I said and turned my back to get my sleep back and after that I didn't hear a voice except the door closing shut.
°°°°°
It was 6pm and sara was due here in a half an hour. I was choosing my lipstick shade for like about 15 minutes and finally decided on moderate beige with a taint of pink. Honestly I have like over 10-15 shades in my makeups pouch and it can be quite challenging to choose one for an event. I had to do blue makeup so that it compliments the dress I am wearing today.Half an hour later....
Sara was here with her car and I was completely ready. Though there would be a a lot to do to look beautiful and suitable for an event but I always do it faster than others.
"you look amazing girl!"
"any doubt?" I smirked
"did you tell your mom we will be a bit late today?"
"I told her that I am going for a wedding and don't know when I'll return and I think that's enough for her to know"
"hmm ok, let's go now" she said and started her car.
we had a smooth drive to the wedding hall.The wedding hall was big and a very decorated one. The males section and females section was divided and the children running all over and some eating ice-creams.
"look" sara said "that's by brother in law" she pointed to the groom who was busy in hugging the people on stage
"where's bride?" I asked
"oh she is that side on the stage in the females section, follow me" she said and glided to the stage. I never say her walk or probably run so swiftly.
"this is my friend johara" sara introduced me to her sister who was not free from smiling and blushing all the time. I actually think that's gross.
"hi, I am johara" I forcefully smiled at her while she slowly held my hand to do a handshake but I barely felt the move.
Ugh I need to get out from here before I puke out of this awkwardness."I have a call to attend, I'll be back in 10" I announced to sara and stepped down the stage as soon as I can and ran out of the wedding hall where they were selling ice creams.
Just as I came out of the door, I got hit on my shoulder and OUCH that really hurt me."watch out!" I shouted at him.
Oh WAIT! IS IT A HIM?
Oh yeah it was."oh I am sorry I didn't notice" he said beating his suit again and again to wipe out the wrinkles
"it's ok, I am just glad you apologized" this reminded me of idrees how he was rude to my best friend.
Real men are supposed to be like this guy"hey are you johara?" that man sounded quite astonished
"yeah how do you know me?"
"I am safi! Don't you remember me?"
Oh shoot! Safi was my college mate when I was in degree."oh my God, you've changed!" I was so shocked to see him. He had actually changed a lot "you've become more handsome boy!"
"heyyyy" I felt we were being flirty
"you look gorgeous" he complimented me
"ah that's what everyone say"
"come on" he said so excitedly "give me your number"
"oh yeah take it" I said and dictated him my number.
"I'll get to you tonight" he winked and left
°°°°
"who was that?" sara asked me while we were driving back home"he was my college mate"
"oh... He was handsome" she said quite teasingly "but not more than that man I bumped into the other day"
"hey you stupid, stop dreaming or else you'll reach the sky with ring on your head" I scolded her
"alright miss bossy"
I don't care about idrees to be honest because I've got nothing to with him. He is nothing more than my father's friend's son and that's all.
He may be handsome but that doesn't concern meI am happy to meet safi.
Not gonna lie but I was always a bit interested in him and how he looks even more dashing.Good thing I bumped into him!
Till my thoughts were at their end, we reached my house.
"bye, sleep tight" sara said
"you too, it was awesome today" I said and went in.
°°°°
My mom was ready to give me a lecture because it was 12 AM right now when I reached home."you are late!"
"I know that, you don't have to remind me" I said "now please don't irritate me with all of that stuff you say always, I am tired and I am going to sleep"
