Three year's later.
8th November.I woke feeling all ecstatic. I wonder what it feels like to finally be an adult. You all guess right, I'm turning 20 today. So you all should wish me a happy birthday.
I took my bath and dressed in casual and went downstairs. In the last year's the people in this house always wish me first thing in the morning but something was off today. Everyone is just behaving as if it's not my birthday. Well the world doesn't always revolve around me, they too have their own issues to tackle.
We ate food in silence and what the hell can you imagine ya salim kept ignoring me while I was talking. I mean like seriously who the hell does he think he is. Well I'm an expert in this game too, let's go with the flow.
One thing you guys don't know about me is that I have a degree at ignoring people especially when I'm in the mood and a PHD at annoying people especially when you choose to annoy me first and lastly I'm a prof In rudeness international academy. So don't mess with me too much, but if I love you, it's very hard to see those side's of me. Anyways back to business.
After lunch, I left the room to check my phone, any messages for my birthday because everyone literally send me messages but what the hell. No one messaged me. I sighed for the umpteenth time and dropped my phone. I don't know how or when I slept off but I was woken up by the most annoying sound- my alarm.it was time for asr, I quickly performed ablution and prayed. I checked my phone to see any messages but guess what there was none. Even Muhammad and Amira didn't send any.
Just then my cute and kind sister decided to grace me with her presence. Note the sacarsm.
"Hey sisto" madeeha said.
"Hey sisto" i replied.
She went into my walk-in closet and brought out a red ball gown which I never knew existed but sha the gown fine die.
"Wear this pls" she said making baby face.
"Why?" I asked with a raised brow.
"For your sister pls" she said pouting like a child well it's not as if i don't do it.
I was in no mood to argue with her because I'm hurting. No one wished me a happy birthday. I collect the gown, went in and wore it.
"Wow Masha Allah, my exquisite sister" she said and I rolled my eyes at her.
"Now come let me make your face" she said patting a place next to her.
"What for?" I asked because she is really starting to get on my nerves.
"We are going somewhere pls" she said with a pleading look. She knows how much I hate make up.
I sat down and she made my face, she led me to the mirror and I just couldn't believe this is me. I mean the make up is very light, simple and natural but I look different. Maybe it's because I don't usually put make up. She tied the head tie.
"Ohk fyn all done, let's hit the road" she screamed.
We came downstairs and I noticed the house is empty.
"Where's everyone?" I asked looking around.
"They went out and that's why we're also going out" she replied.
We hopped into my car. Yh I have started driving a year ago but madeeha will drive today.
we arrived at a place, I mean like seriously i don't even know this place. We went in and everywhere was dark. I turned to look at madeeha but she was nowhere to be found.
"Where the hell am i" I asked stuttering.
Just then the lights flickered on and there comes the people I never expected to see."Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear ummi, happy birthday to you" they sang altogether.
I was still rooted to my place, I couldn't do anything, I was happy, elated, everything sef that tear's cascaded down my cheeks.
Baffa(uncle imam) and his wife, Amma(anty surayya) and her husband, anty Asha, anty Laila, mami, hamma Aneel, Adda Amra and her husband with children, Baba(uncle Abdulazeez), uncle sufyan, anty amina, anty halima, anty safiyya. Adda iman, Adda sabeeha and her cute children, Akhi Affan, Hamma abubakar with his wife and son, mama, ya salim, Muhammad, ayman, Amira, ya khalifa, ya ammar, ya aneesa, ayaan, Amma, maryam, Adda aylah, maira, Nasir, zayan, hanan, Akhi jalil. Then anty safiyya's children- ya nafisa, ya saleema, ya amir, ya umar, ya ilham, ya ihsan and two of my course mates. Then khalid- the handsome lecturer together with his wife and son.
You might be wondering how on earth he's here right. He said and I quote- there's something that bind's us, I'm sure of it because I once saw you but that's not the name you gave me.
Well I told him that's my name. He kept visiting time to time, mama even thought he was in love with me but it's not true. There's something going on in his mind and I'm hell bent on finding what is it."Happy birthday durrah" Amira said bringing me out of my reverie.
I greeted everyone and they all wished me well, everyone gave me his gift. I was so happy. I gave a speech to thank everyone and baba announced that he's making ya salim the CEO of his company. Uncle sufyan also announced that people are coming to ask for Hanan's hand in marriage. We all turned to look at her.
"Like seriously you're into a relationship and you didn't care to let me know" i said because I was deeply hurt to find out with everyone.
"I'm sorry, I kept it as a secret to surprise you all" she said and I smiled weakly. Hanan sure has changed.
"Ammaaaaaaa" i screamed hugging her tightly.
"Is it now you saw me" she said faking hurt.
"Ayyah I'm sorry, useni" i said pouting.
We laughed it out and I was honestly very happy to meet her and ya khalifa.
