Malika's P.O.V

It's the next day. Zara and I are listening to our favourite music and dancing around the room. I start to look at the time and I quickly start to panic.

"Oh my god Zara, we don't have enough time!" freaking out.

"Hey Mals just chill..." cutting her off.

"What do you mean? Calm down, I can't! I need help!" putting both my hands on my head trying to calm down.

My mum then decides to walk in.

"Hey Malika! What's wrong? What's the racket about?" trying to calm me down.

Zara then steps in.

"Mrs May, Malika is just a little panicky that's all" trying to comfort me.

"Alright Malika! Get yourself together! We are going to help you get ready! Now stop being a  drama queen!" laughing.

Zara trying not to laugh either.

"Hey mum aren't you suppose to be at work?" trying to change the subject and feeling annoyed.

"Yeah sweetie I was suppose to be at work but I decided to take the day off" smiling.

"Why mum?" getting confused.

"Sweetie it's because the other day, I was about to go into my car to head to work but Zach stopped by and asked for your dress size but before he asked me that he wanted my permission to ask you out on a date! Which I found so cute! He is such a sweet heart!' taking a pause.

I was just covering my face and trying not to blush.

"So sweetie, I decided to take the day off, so I could see you and Zara in your pretty dresses!" hugging both of us.

"Alright, so I asked the boys to come over here to pick you girls up at 7, was that it?" questioning us.

"Yes Mrs May, it is at 7" Zara smiling .

"Okay great, so let me help you get ready!" smiling.

"Alright mum just make me look pretty!" feeling nervous.

"Malika honey, you are pretty, don't be silly!" getting annoyed.

"Alright mum whatever you say" leaving her to do it.

It's 6:45pm on the dot and Zara and I are all ready. I must say my mum did a great job! I mean she's incredible!

"Here you are girls, all done!" fixing the last stand of hair that was sticking out.

"Wow...I look great...thank you mum" standing in front of the mirror and smiling.

"Yes Mals, I mean you look so beautiful! Zach is very lucky to have you!" Zara punching my arm slightly.

I just rub my arm and laugh at her.

"Malika sweetie you look so beautiful and you always look beautiful!" getting emotional.

"Aww mum please don't cry!" trying not to cry myself.

Zara steps in.

"Yeah Mrs May please don't cry" trying to comfort her.

"I know I am just being silly. It's just that my baby girl's all grown up now!" wiping her tears and trying not to cry even more.

"Aww mum I will always be your baby girl and..." thinking of my dad all of a sudden.
