Fated to be

Tahira's POV

Just like every other girl. I wake to my alarm as usual just in time for fajr prayer. I'm not the kind to miss prayer or pray irregularly, I might be a bad girl but for religion...no joke.

After my prayers took a nice shower with my usuals,oil my body and hair, wore my favourite pink jumpsuit with a matching cap an veil,bathed my favourite spray, add up a bit of oud and..I'm ready to go.

It's weekend and as I ain't going to school I planed a hang out with my favorite people 'Nabeel and Nabeela'.

They are definitely the best to shop with, their fashion sense is just on point.

Okay enough with the talking, gotta go see my parents.

First went to mom and dad's chamber greetings in the morning starts a good day doesn't it and besides don't think I can go a full day without seeing them, plus I'll be out for the whole day with the twin.

"SabahulKhair (Good morning) Umm, SabahulKhair Abb", I greeted just as I entered and of course not without knocking mm I'm a girl with morals.

"Kayfa Kanat Laylatak(how was your night) Tahira", she says with that smile I don't get enough of.

"Anna latiflan(I'm not a kid) mom quit asking such questions", I say slightly frowning.

It's good to feel mature but it's definitely not when momma spoils it.

"Hmm seriously, do you already have plans for the day already baby?", Mom asks again like she didn't yesterday night.

"Of course umm, I told you already yesterday didn't I?", I say though frowning at the 'baby'.

"I'd have wanted you to go with me to your aunt Neema's but as you already have plans......", She shrugs.

Mm as much as I love my Aunt Neema, I'm not about to ditch the kids for their mom.

After quite a few minutes my people are here to pick me up.

I hop in with them and we got talking.

"Guess who's getting married", says Nabeel grinning only to earn his twin's glare.

"I'm no good at guessing you know right", I say with an eye roll.

"My Akhi of course who else (Akhi means elder brother in Arab)",Beela says rolling her eyes too.

"Oh my why breaking my heart this way",I say fake-gasping with a hand on my heart.

I have a huge crush on their brother cause he's simply too charming, that sure is one lucky girl.

"Trust me you'll be overjoyed finding out who the bride is" Nabeel say with a wink.

"C'mon enough with the bro talks we're here".......

After the whole stress with the twin, they dropped me back at home, it is quite a shame their brother knows me not to well, I get along Great with them cause we share a many personal intrests and we are about same age, I'm just two months older.

I was supposed to say GE to Mum and Dad only to find out they are actually out and not back yet, trust me lacking siblings can have disadvantages but it sure has more advantages.

So imagine I'll have to wait alone in the house for them, all the helpers have retired for the day.

I decided to watch my favourite series 'Alchemy of souls' to pass time before they come back and in no time they're here trust me I didn't even finish a full episode.

"Marhaba(welcome) Abb Umm, did you go to aunt Neema's with dad, c'mon".

Don't be silly baby you know your dad will never just want to go with me to aunt Neema's, he just came with to see his friend and you know,discuss the wedding she says with an eye roll.

"Whose wedding",I say faking dumb.

"Aadil's getting married soon don't you know", she says with a frown.

"Awwwn who's the lucky girl".

"Wait and find out doll".

I don't know why but everyone seems so happy about the lucky girl say hope it's not what I'm thinking.

They both bid goodnight and went to bed while I went up to my room, I wanted only to say good night after all.

Don't get me wrong I can't stay a whole day and equally can't go to sleep without seeing them.

By the time I woke up the next day I had forgotten most of what happened yesterday but unfortunately I'm having school tomorrow so I've got to prepare for it today. I really hate Sundays probably because it's the day before Monday and the day you have to prepare all you'll do on Monday, it's just very tiring though it could be interesting at times, I had a fresh bath and did my usuals before going to the closet with the hopes of finding what to wear quickly, trust me it's really stressful choosing what to wear, sometimes you just wanna wear everything or you want to choose one of some picked out or you don't even want to wear anything, I'm not the type to wear tank tops with shorts just cause I'm home.

I finally decided on my brown with white stripes palazo and white shirt with a matching Brown cap.

You never know when you'll have to go out.

I first when to mom and dad's chamber like usual and I heard from Umm that the family of my would be husband are coming today.

I had always expected it cause I was supposed to get married at twenty but dad was good enough to allow be done with school first which I have, to think he actually allowed me reach twenty five single, mm he really tried.

The only annoying thing is I don't even know the name of my soon groom.

But..no, that's just before I met with the big shocker.

I don't know what I was expecting, probably a group of strangers I've never seen before but it turned out to be the familiar face of my Aunt Neema and her family, wait who am I marrying.

Mm no wonder Nabeel say "you'll be overjoyed finding out who the bride is"...

After all pleasantries and everything I was left alone with Aadil or should we say,my supposed would be husband to get familiar with.

"Do you really want this?", That's exactly how I was brought out from my reverie.

"I don't know what you are talking about".

"I mean you don't even know me,I don't think you were also planning this".

"Well as a matter of fact I was".

"Well due to some personal reasons I can't get married now".

"I don't know what you expect me to do about that cause you shouldn't be telling me,you should instead be telling your parents", I say rolling my eyes at the end. I really do love that don't I...

"Well, do you think I'd be here if they listened to me?".

"Then what makes you think they'll listen to me".

"They might not but your parents will, you're after all their first, last and only child, It's only normal they do".

"Are you even being serious right now "........
