MALAK'S POV

This weekend is pretty crazy, Nadeen is starting her Exams at the Islamiyya today, I just had a facetime with Fadul about how uncomfortable it is working with someone you like, facetime with my besties too. Zulayha gave birth to a beautiful baby boy a day before and I was at the hospital all through, so we got into a group video call with Leemah to see out little boy once again.

I also talked to Adda Humairah and baby salama. Called Mama for the 15 seconds we have once in 2 or 3 days and called Baba as well. I'm going to the house to see them soon. I talked to Adda Billy and things aren't really going well. She wants an out and I couldn't bring myself to tell her to stay.  He's my brother but she really deserves better. She also don't want Asad to grow up in a broken home and so do I, so we're just torn in between. What I definitely know is I'm going to support her in whatever decision she made.

Uncle Aslam and Anty Zakiyya are coming together and I'm so excited to finally host people I actually know and like ever since I got married. I also couldn't wait to see my little cousins.

"I'll get it, You can take the refreshment to the living room and set the lunch in the dining room" I tell the maid as I race to the door to open it. "Anty Zee" I squealed with a jump as I engulf my favourite after Anty Ammu in a very big hug. She couldn't make it to my wedding because she had a miscarriage but she facetimed all through and that's enough. "Hi bud!" I look down at my 9 year old cousin Sadiq as I ruffle his hair and he frowns. "Jaanu is still your favourite cous" I shrug and Anty Zee laughed. "Say hi Sadiq" she nudged his shoulder and he waved at me.

"Your uncle is here too" Uncle Aslam announces holding their sleeping 4 year old daughter, Amani. "Didn't notice you" I joke and he roll his eyes. "Lies, lies, lies" he mutter and I laugh. "Come on in" I say ushering them into the living room just when Na'eem decides to come down the stairs. "There he is" Anty Zee whisper, her teasing smile on me and I look away.

He smiles as he arrive to where we are. Anty Zee sat beside her husband while Sadiq's face kinda lit up when he saw Na'eem. "Hey champ" they fist bumped and I gasp. "I'm supposed to be all my cousins' favourite, Sadiq don't tell me he is your favourite" I say mortified. "You don't play football or basketball with me" he shrugs and I put my hand on my chest. "That's betrayal" I whine. "Play with me then" he offers. "I can't play football and...." Na'eem cut me off. "And she's too short to play basketball" he says and Sadiq together with his parents laughed. He just made the grumpiest kid I know laugh. "I'm 5'5 I'm not short" I say looking up at my 6'3 husband and he tilt his head to the side with a raised brow. "If you insist" he adds before sitting down and dragging me to sit next to him. I try to wiggle and move so he circled his hand around my waist keeping me still.

"You're glowing, Na'eem is treating you right then?" Anty Zee teased. "He's Okay I guess" I shrug. "C'mon princess I deserve more credit than that" he said from beside me and I turn to look at him raising my eyebrows. "Sure you do" I reply sarcastically. "Do you bicker all day?" Uncle Aslam ask. "You've no idea Uncle A, your friend is super annoying" I sigh dramatically and Anty Zee laughs. "Okay, how about I and my annoying friend leave you ladies to it?" He ask as they get up. "That'll be better" I say and Na'eem shakes his head with a chuckle. Uncle Aslam gave Anty Zee a quick kiss on the forehead placing their daughter beside her and a fist bump to his son who's sitting quietly before they leave with Na'eem.

Nadeen bursted into the house almost immediately. "I'm home" she called from the hall to whoever might hear. "I'm in the living room cupcake" I called with a laugh and she rushed into the room. "Anty Zee" she squealed super excited before rushing to her. 'Come here baby" Anty Zakiyya opened her arms wide for Nadeen and she giggled hugging her back.
