Ibrahim woke me up today telling me he heard Nuh talking about the guy he's bringing for dinner tonight which gave me plently of time to figure out a plan.
I go downstairs to eat my breakfast with Ibrahim, I smile at both Amira and Nuh who smile back.
"Zayna, I know you don't agree with me but I want to just ask you one thing" he says after us eating in silence.
"Yes?"
"Just meet the person then you have all right to disagree or agree. We have two men in mind for you who I think are perfect at the end of the week I shall be expecting your answer"
"Two?"
"Well, you have to meet more than one person"
I clear my throat since it became dry after leaving my mouth open for a while in shock."Ok Dad" I say then get up to leave with Ibrahim.
"That's it. You're just going to agree"
"Chill Ibrahim, I've got a plan" I smirk. We separate our ways and I get into the car for school.Thinking about my idea has gotten me so happy.
Ayaan comes into the room in tutor registration.
"What's up criminal?"
"Oh nothing, I wanna ask you something though"
"Go on"
"Are you willing to cut class and come with me. I want to buy a few things"
"Huh?"
"Do you want me to repeat it even though I know you heard me clearly?"
"You want me to cut class to go shopping with you"
"Well, I need to get a few ingredients and since Ashley isn't here. You're the only one. I know it's haraam so we'll have Robert with us"
He sighs.
"Fine, but what do you want to get"
"I'll tell you that later" I smirk.The whole day he kept bothering me, it didn't help that we were in all the classes together.
****
"Can you tell me now!!!"
"Fine, there's someone coming to my house tonight and I want to make them leave so I'm going to mess with their food, be a total klutz and basically kill the life out of him. Not literally" I say."Cool. I can so help you with this"
"Awesome" I say before we get into the car.
"Cutting class again" he says with a smile then sees Ayaan.
"With a boy!! Zayna! I never thought you would be like this. This is what you call haram!"
I hear him sniggering so I glare at him.
"Oh you didn't know, me and Zayna are dating. She loved me so much she couldn't get away, I decided to take pity on her"
"Ok, now I know you're lying. She's not like that"
My turn to snigger.
"You, me and him are going to buy some food, Chef told me he needed them and this was the only time I had"
"Fine""Chef told you to get the hottest chilli power the store sells?"
"Yup"
"As well as itching powder"
"No, that's Ayaan's"
"Ok, what about the horrible drink?"
"Oh Chef needed that for himself"
"That makes sense, no one in your family would dare have that"
"I know"We leave the store and I drop Ayaan home, he wishes me good luck before I go. I pick up Ibrahim and then we go home. I quickly hide what I got in the kitchen and get ready for work.
*****
"Come on were leaving, it's almost dinner time and you need to get dressed"
"Ok"We get into the car.
"I want best behavior from you"
"Yes dad"
"I want you to be polite and kind"
"Yes dad"
"Don't be rude, and try to help out a bit. Serve some food but not all. Maybe it would be best if you serve just him"
"Yes dad"
"Don't fool around with Ibrahim like you always do"
"Yes dad"
"Oh and please please try to act as if you are one of us, like a proper lady. Don't use the slang you use, and don't say any of that we are all equal nonsense. It would also help if you sounded different as well. Do you understand?"
"Yes dad" I say gritting my teeth.We enter the house and he ushers me upstairs to get dressed.
I see the black dress on my bed and get changes into it. Alex comes in but I stop her from putting any makeup on me. She agrees and takes me down.
I go down the stairs to see a man who's back is facing me. Urgh, Is he the guy. He's probably 30!
