"Hey, what are you daydreaming about?" Faiza asked, entering the room and seeing Ayesha lost in thought.

"Nothing much! Come, sit here." Ayesha was startled.

"Well... I was thinking that since tomorrow is Monday, I should rejoin college... so could you talk to your brother for me?" Faiza said.

"What should I say to him? If you want to join college, just come directly tomorrow!" Ayesha began teasing Faiza.

"No, I mean, please tell him that I'll be going to college with you both from tomorrow." Faiza said hesitantly.

"No, this is my brother and his wife's personal matter, you should talk to him yourself." Ayesha said, trying to suppress her laughter.

"But I... he’s hardly ever at home... how should I talk to him? Ever since our marriage, I've hardly seen him at home." Faiza started thinking.

"Yeah, I don't know what's happened to him. Ever since he got married, he's been very busy. He used to work from home a lot before, and no matter how busy he was, he always ate with me!" Ayesha said, contemplating Faiza's words.

"I don't even have a phone, so you talk to him on the phone... if you start going to college too, I'll get bored... that's why I want to come with you!" Faiza said with a smile.

"Okay, I'll talk to him!" Ayesha reassured her.

******************************

Auntie had some work to do, so she went to her house early in the morning with Uncle. Adil had gone to the office with Fardan. Only a few guards, Ayesha, and Faiza were at home. They sat together talking, and Ayesha was telling Faiza stories about her and Fardan's childhood, which Faiza found hard to believe because Fardan seemed very quiet and serious. Maybe he had changed over time. Ayesha was showing her their childhood photo album when Adil and Fardan came home. Seeing Fardan, Ayesha ran to him while Faiza stood in place, just watching Fardan.

"Brother, where have you been so busy? Do you remember that you are married now?" Ayesha asked, irritated and angry.

"Well, I just..." Fardan was about to say something when Ayesha interrupted him.

"Brother, didn't you like sister-in-law so much? Now that you're married, don't you like her anymore?" Ayesha asked softly. Faiza, standing at a distance, couldn't hear what they were saying, just watching the conversation between the siblings with curiosity.

"What's wrong? Why are you so angry with me? When did I say I don't like Faiza anymore?" Fardan was puzzled by Ayesha's words.

"Where have you been busy? We have to wait so long just to see you, brother!" Ayesha had calmed down a bit.

"I had some important clients to meet. You know how the business field is!" Fardan said with an innocent face, which melted Ayesha's anger.

"Okay, you must be tired now. Go freshen up, and we'll prepare dinner! And remember don't be late next time." Ayesha said, approaching Faiza.

Faiza didn't understand what they were talking about, but she knew that Ayesha had given Fardan a good scolding. They started preparing dinner for Fardan and Adil. Fardan went to his room, and Adil had already gone inside.

After dinner, everyone sat in the lawn, drinking tea. Fardan and Adil were still discussing business, which annoyed Ayesha. "Brother, why don't you both turn the office into a home and stay there!" she said.

Fardan and Adil fell silent, and then Ayesha said, "Sister-in-law will join college with me from tomorrow!" Faiza, waiting for Fardan's response, looked down at her hands. She didn't know if Fardan would allow her to study or not.
