I walked through the door and shouted, so all could hear, "I'M HOME!!" I heard my mom fumbling in the kitchen.

"Zayn? Seetheart? Is that you?" She said, emerging ino the front hall. She came over to me and gave me a big hug. "So good to have you home. Oh! Aria, dear, I haven't seen you in so long!" She sai, giving Aria a hug. I heard footsteps down the staircase, and soon enough, Waliyha and Safaa had appeared. I hugged Waliyha and then picked up Safaa and swung her around in my arms. I set her down. The retreated to the kitchen.

Then, Doniya walked down the steps.

"Hey Zayn! How are you?"

"I'm doing go--"

"OH MY GOD! ARIA!" Doniya shouted. She ran over to Aria and they rcked bak and forth, hugging each other.

"What are you doing home?"

"I came home. i was in London for work, and  caught up with Zayn."

"Oh my gosh, you look amazing." Doniya smiled at her.

"Aria's here?" Waliyha shouted from the kitchen. She and Safaa came running in from the kitchen. Waliyha hugged Aria and then Aria crouched down to Safaa's level. Safaa crashe into Aria's arms.

"Oh, Safaa, how've you been? You look so old!"

"I'm awesome!" Safaa said with pride.

"Alright, everyone, let's sit down for dinner." My mother said. We all filed into the kitchen. Doniya sat next to each other on one side of the table on the right hand of where my father would be. I sat next to Aria, across from Waliyha and Safaa. My mom sat at one end. My father walked in.

"Hey, dad." I said, getting up.

He gave me a hug, saying, "Hello, Zayn, great to have you home. Good to see you, too, Aria."

"Thanks, Mr. Malik." She responded. My mom set all of the plates out on the table and we loaded up our dinners.

"So what is everyone doing tonight?" My dad asked the table.

"Well, Aria and I were going to go see her family." I offered.

"Then, Doniya and I were going shopping tonight." Aria told him.

"Would you like to play outside tonight, Waliyha?" I looked up at her.

"Um....I don't know." She looked embarassed.

"Se probably going to see Will!" Safaa shouted.

"Who's Will, Waliyha?" I asked.

"He's her boyfriend." Safaa said.

"Boyfriend?" I was surprised.

"Yea, he's picking me up to go to the cinema tonight." Waliyha finally admitted.

"Well, I'm meeting him." Waliyha sighed at my comment.

Soon enough, dinner was over and Aria and I walked across the street to her house. We walked in and they were just clearing dnner. Aria hugged Andrew and Chris. Then they came over and bro hugged me.
