[At the Ball night. The last event of Siyam's wedding, everyone looking lovely in suits and night gowns]

Nihal:- sis Nal this setup is so lovely. The event planners really tried
Sinal:- yeah! Yesterday's dinner's setup was my favorite. I just love it! I even thought the event planners were from Lebanon, you know they got the best wedding planners
Nihal:- No it's "Bluevelvet" and I heard they are the number one event planners in Nigeria
Sinal:- I believe that because Siyam's  events were spectacular
Nihal:- Don't worry they will surely plan your wedding
Sinal:- lol, and if yours come first they shall also plan yours.
Nihal:-hahahahaha! don't hope so sis
Sinal:- well as mum said, it's all about time!

[Nihal turned and looked at the stage where the couple were sitting]

Nihal:- oh! Oh! Oh! My God! Sis Nal! Sis Nal! (She stammered) sis Nal hold my hands!
Sinal:- what? What is wrong?
Nihal:- look!
Sinal:- look what? Are you alright?
Nihal:- look at the stage! [she pointed]
Sinal:- [looked at where the couple were sitting and then someone was taking selfies with them] Oh my God! It's Mubar! I can't believe this!
Nihal:- Neither can I. Wait I will go talk to him
Sinal:- No don't !
Nihal:- why ?
Sinal:- how can this guy be here? So he knew he was also coming for Siyam's wedding and he didn't say a word about that? Maybe he decided we shouldn't talk to each other, so why should we talk to him?
Nihal:- Alright as you said!

Minutes later............

[Mubar approaches the table where Sinal and Nihal were sitting]

Nihal:- Sis Nal look he's coming here
Sinal:- pretend you didn't see him
[Mubar reached the two sisters]
Mubar:- Hey!
Sinal:- [looked at him from head to toe] hey! Sorry do I know you?
Mubar:- lol, Sinal I can explain
Sinal:- explain what? Do I know you?
Mubar:- [smiled and turned to Nihal] Nihal how're you?
Nihal:- wait! Do I know you? How did you even know my name? This is serious! And your face doesn't even look familiar
Mubar:- God! You too?
Sinal:- hey guy! Can you please not spoil our mood here?
Mubar:- it's okay! We talk after the event
Sinal:- it's okay! don't even mind!


Time;11:00pm

Mubar:- wait! Wait! Wait please
Sinal:- guy why? It's already late we've to go home!
Mubar:- Sinal let me at least explain
Nihal:- Sis Nal let him say what he have to
Sinal:- Go on, am listening
Mubar:- you see, I swear to God it was an unexpected journey, in fact I didn't even know it was Siyam's wedding that I will be attending until when I arrived here. The groom is the son of my dad's friend so Dad Insists that I should attend the wedding since am on break. I just arrived yesterday

Sinal:- But I've been trying your number two days before we left for Nigeria and it was not reachable, I texted you on WhatsApp you were offline since then. In fact even when we're on the plane before the takeoff I texted you!
Mubar:- Ohh!! So sorry! When I left London I've to meet dad in Turkey for us to come here together. So I lost my phone in the process
Nihal:- how're we gonna be sure that all you said is true?
Mubar:- Nihal!!! Why would I lie to you? Beside I've explain to Siyam and the groom because I knew something like this can happen. You can confirm it from them
Sinal:- it's alright! I believe you
