"Maami you look disturbed, Is everything okay?" Nabil asked his mum. "Everything is okay Dan Albarka. I'm searching for someone." She declared stretching her neck . "And who is that someone that is stressing my Maami like this?" He asked .
"You remember the girl I told you I met at the salon a couple of weeks ago? Well I saw her here too. We were talking and her mum called to her attention. I really want to know if she has accepted my lunch invitation." Maami declared.
"Maami what has this girl done to you? I'm getting jealous. Is she more special than me? " He teased.
"No one is more special than you Dan Albarka. But that girl have done a huge favor not only for me but for the entire family by saving me. Who knows what would have happened if she didn't caught me right on time."
"Allah saved you not her." Nabil declared. "Shut up! I know Allah saved me but then he used her to save me." She snapped .
"Calm down Maami. Okay fine, we will find her since that's what you want." Nabil chuckled.
"So what Is she wearing? Any description that would aid in finding her? I'll help you look around. Though we're soon going to leave for the bride's house any moment." He announced looking at his wrist watch.
"Well she was wearing a........" Nabil cut Maami and apologized, he had to answer a very important business call .

"Hey Najma the cars are getting filled up and Ameerah left her phone with me. She said I should give it to you and you've to enter the same car with her." Basma announced handing over Ameerah's phone .
"Wait , What about you? You know I'm not going without you." Najma folded her hands.
"Don't worry about me. There will be an extra car that would bring me and the rest. She left her last box in my care and some few personal belongings of her'o that we have to sort out and bring to the house. We will be there in less than an hour insha Allah." Basma declared.
"Yes there they are, Just go already!" Basma pulled Najma's arm elatedly. She felt something was fishy, Why on earth was Basma acting all hyperactive? What is she cooking up this time around?" She got to where the cars were parked and she was directed to enter the Black Land Cruiser Prado .
"Najma would you please carry Aisha on your laps. The other car is filled up." Najma's maternal Aunty asked. "Yes, sure Aunty." She replied with a smile , carrying her little cousin.
She exchanged pleasantries with her Aunties that were already inside the car and teased Ameerah that was covered up throughly.
"Don't tell me you're still shedding those crocodile tears. Wait, where's the driver?" Najma asked looking around.
"There he is, It's uncle Kabir's friend!" Little Aisha pointed towards the other side ,Where Nabil opened the door and entered. He entered without saying a word to anyone and turned on the engine.
Najma was too shocked to utter a word. She was not expecting him to drive this car. It must definitely be Basma and Ameerah's plans. No wonder she was acting up.
On the other side, Nabil was equally surprised to see Najma in the car. Judging by the fact that he knows she's not Ameerah's best friend. He understood this was Kabir's plans. He insisted that the driver won't drive the car but him. Saying he's the only one he can entrust with driving his bride.
"Lallai wannan yaran baida kunya (This boy has no shame) He didn't even bother to greet my Aunties that are present in this car. What's his problem? Gidansu ba manya hala(They have no elders in their house definitely)" Najma was so pissed off with his attitude that a hiss escaped her mouth.
