Tuesday
7:39 am
Royalty Academy.

"Hauwatty !" I exclaimed.

"Barkindoooo" she said with the same energy.

"Why didn't you come yesterday?" I said.

"Wlhi we returned yesterday" i said.

"Where's Fatima, this gurl likes coming late to school" i said shaking my head.
Closing my mouth was the hardest thing to do and she came in.

"Barkindoooo" fatima said.

"Fatimaaaaaa" I said with the same energy. The three of us are very crazy. We're intelligent, beautiful and popular.
We started the first period and before we knew it, it was break time.
We merged the seat's and sat down and began munching on our food's.

"Where's ikram?" I asked.

"She's not feeling well" hauwa said. But from the way she talked I know there's more to the story than she's not well. I know I missed school for three days and alot has happened.

"According to rumor's, wai she got pregnant and she aborted the child without anyone knowing, so she started feeling severe stomach ache and she was taking to the hospital and it was confirmed it's because of abortion" fatima said in a low tone more like a whisper.

"Lallai, wonder's shall never end" i said pitying her, maybe 🤔 just maybe she needed to someone to understand her, maybe she needs a confidante, I thought to myself.
we continued munching on our food.We talked about everything and nothing until break was over.

Before we knew it, it was time for closing and we all left.

Adda sabeeha came to pick me up and we visited ammi in the hospital first. I told her about my day and asked her to wake up, hoping that one day she will wake up because the doctor said she's not responding to treatment and there's likely no chance of survival.

We went back home, I  freshened up and slept.

****
Life went on as usual, and it's finally the end of the term. We're writing exam's and we will soon finish.

I visit ammi every day after school, I talk to adda amra every day and the little human growing inside of her, my annoying niece and nephew and ya khalil.

Abi is always at home and right now I couldn't thank Allah more.

****
We're collecting our results today and as usual I always come first and sometimes I wonder how.
I read, but I don't read during exams, I simply write everything in my own understanding.
I bade my classmates farewell and we left.
That's how the remaining day's before the wedding were hectic, jumping from one place to another.

***
Five day's before the wedding
I was sitting outside the house thinking of who will take me out of this house because honestly I don't like crowded places that's why I don't usually go to the market then i sighted hamma Aneel.

"Hamma Aneel" I shouted and he abruptly turned to look at me.

"What?" He asked in a low tone as if he doesn't want anyone to hear or see him.

"Pls take me to anty halima's house, this house is too crowded" i said with a pleading face.

"Ohk! But hurry up" he said.
I quickly went inside and brought out my luggage. I packed all the things I'm going to need till the wedding end's.
I met him in the car and we drove off. On arriving at anty halima's house, I noticed that the house was also full before I sighted Amira. We stopped and hopped out of the car.

"Durrah, what happened? What are you doing here?" I asked.

"I was waiting for someone who would take me out of this house, I'm really suffocating in here with alot of people" she said.
One thing I noticed about me and Amira is that we do have alot in common but she's more sensible and I'm more sensitive. I cry easily.

"Y'all should come let's go to the guest house" hamma Aneel said.

"Yay" we exclaimed.
Amira went in to call maryam and bring out their luggage.
She came out and I was surprised I didn't see her hanan.

"Where's hanan?" i asked.

"She's not coming with us" she said.

"She's not coming or you didn't call her" i said mockingly

"Anyhow you reason it, that's how it is" she said.

"It's even better if she doesn't come with us, I hate the sight of her she talks too much and the most annoying thing is that nothing sensible or reasonable comes out of her mouth" hamma Aneel said.

"Hamma you too" i said surprised.

"Pls enough with the banter, let's leave before she even sees us, we hadn't met since they arrived" maryam said.
We hopped into the car and left for the guest house.
Minutes later we arrived. It is Abi's guest house and a few feets away from his guest house, uncle Ahmad- anty halima's husband also has his own guest house, that's where the older men resides.
There are two flats in Abi's guesthouse. So, one flat the bride and her people reside while the other flat the guy's reside, the whole guy's.
We went into our flat, where the girls reside. The girls are not many.
Adda sabeeha, Adda Amra, adda iman, adda aylah and amma my age mate then Adda sabeeha's best friend ifra. We took a room and amma joined us. Being Monday today we actually have nothing to do until Wednesday when the henna party will take place.
Food is brought from the house and Adda Amra shares it and take's the guy's share's to them.
