'The girl which we have selected for you have a best friend, they want to get married to brothers to continue their friendship. So their dads want to marry them off with the boys from same house. And....'
'And mamma and Taima finalized Uzair bhai's marriage along with Aariz bhai's marriage... we are having 2 marriages within one month.' Sumaiya our sister beamed with happiness.
I was shocked to hear it and saw Uzair now its his turn to freeze with the news.
'WHAT????' I and Uzair asked with same tone at same time.
'Yes beta, and believe me the other girl also perfect for our Uzair' chachi is praising the other girl.
I got frustrated, what's happening in our life? Is this how a marriage proposals happens? I mean it is not a shopping mall for buy one get one free offer. It is our life.
'I can't believe this you guys accepted their demand, How?? I mean we are not that much bad guys that we have to accept their terms and conditions like this!' I controlled my frustration and asked them calmly.
My mamma came to me holding my hand she made me sit and gave a glass of water. I drank it quitely and saw Uzair also sitting opposite to me. Then she slowly started to talk.
'Look beta you three are big niyamath (gift) from Allah to this house. We will never take wrong decisions on your matters Insha Allah.
We actually planned to ask the girl's friend for our Uzair. Before we speak about it they themself told us about their friendship. Haan, we actually planned your marriage first then about to think Uzair's marriage. Now we are thinking of doing the two marriages at the same time.
We are not forcing you, first see the girls then you two can decide anything. We will not go against your wishes. But personally we think these two girls are perfect for you two and our family.' Mamma made us clear about their talks.
'Take two days time beta, let us now your decisions after two days no problem.' Dad told us and we left for our rooms with nodding our head.

SANA'S POV
I finished my tahjjud namaz, then sat on my bed with closing my eyes and taking a deep breath. Feeling relaxed, Alhamdulillah.
Niha and I decided to do istiqara about our marriage proposals. And Alhamdulillah we are feeling positive vibes.
What we want more than that. Allah is the best of all planners! Alhamdulillah, I'm feeling sukoon after many days. It is a positive sign from him.
A mother always wishes her children the best. Allah's love for us is 70 times more than a Mother's love. His decision always will be the best for us.
It's been a one week since we said yes to the proposal. My dad and Niha's dad are super busy in the preparations. It is decided that tomorrow they are coming here for the engagement.
But the groom's are busy with something. So only the families are coming to do a small rasam(bringing new clothes, jewels, flowers etc...) And to confirm the wedding dates and all.
Ya Allah, forgive me for my evil thoughts. I was thinking about na-mehram. Do grant my heart peace and make my heart and mind ready for this marriage... Aameen ❤️
NIHA'S POV
Alhamdulillah! For everything happened in my life within these three weeks.
I'm engaged to the guy which dad decided for me. I'm thankful for whatever happened from the good to worst in my life. This is how Allah tests our patience.
