The next morning Nuaimat and Tanisha spend the morning stick to one another, during breakfast, Thoufeeq came up to Tanisha and offered her a cup of milk,
"No thank you, i have had some" replied Tanisha coldy, he was shocked but withdrew the cup, just when, Larab of 10 years, a son to Maya came up them,
"Hey Tanisha, do you mind having somes milk" asked Larab, Tanisha smiled and said, "thanks ya Larab, that's sweet" and collected the cup, and even took a sip, her and Larab giggled, "will you join me today, Uncle Asad will be showing us how to ride a horse, Eeman and Nala will be joining us, Joda isnt feeling to well" said Larab, "no i will be taking her to hear stories from Grandma Jana" snapped Thoufeeq,
"I have changed my mind, i will be going with Ya Larab" added Tanisha,
"But Tani...... "what Ya Thoufeeq, am going with Ya Larab" said Tanisha,
Nuaimat who saw and heard the whole encounter was mouth agape, that girl is just five and how on earth did she learn something like that, "like mother like daughter" whispered Lawisa to Nuaimat's ear, Nuaimat gave her a glare, just when Zaid came up to them, those around offered him a good morning, except for Nuaimat who was now focusing on slicing and chewing a sweeted tuna, she even hates that particular sweetened Tuna of a meal, then Harees, Yunus, Usayd, Jameel and Thauban joined them, this time Nuaimat greeted them with smiles,
"Nuaimat why are you eating the Tuna, i thought you hate it" asked Lateefa,
"Me just improvising" said Nuaimat with s fake smile, "you have these lots to improvise with why that" asked Maha motioning to the filled up table, just then Sabira came up to the table and her eyes were on Nuaimat,
"Thanks for letting me know Maha, but am owkey" said Nuaimat and she put a slice in her mouth,
"Why do you keep on starring at him" asked Tasneem looking at Sabira,
"What" inquired Sabira Tani her eyes off Zaid who was laying honey on a pancake,
"Who is starring at who" asked Yunus,
"Sabira starring at Zaid" answered Tasneem, gaining glare from Waseela,
"Oh" exclaimed Yunus,
"Get over him, Atleast Waseela has the sense to stop clinging on Harees since she knows he will never love her, so why not let it be, accept the reality, he doesn't love you, why be a sucker for someone who doesn't love you, go for Eshan, the Vizier's son, that guy loves you" snapped Tasneem,
"My daughter isnt fit for any Vizier's son" interrupted Fadwah appearing out of nowhere and that got the attention of some of the Aunties around,
"Aunty Fadwah Eshan loves her dearly" said Tasneem and added "i hate seeing her like this"
"My daughter will marry a prince just like her not some son of a Vizier" snapped Fadwah, "oh then when will that prince arrive, she clocked 29 already, she is not getting any younger, except she is ready to be given out as some trophy" Tasneem,
"Balqees talk to your child, she has no more manners" fired Fadwah at Tasneem's mother,
"Sabira is much more close to me than any of my cousins, but call me whatever you wish to call me for saying the truth" snapped Tasneem,
"My daughter will marry Zaid, Zaid will marry my daughter" said Fadwah,
"So you will make him marry somone he doesn't love" asked Aunt Yusrah feigning intrest with a smirk, "yes after all we are his guardian, my husband is" said Fadwah with a smile,
"Oh i see, but so says the papers, but we all are witnesses to how Zaid and Zohra grew up, they grew up in this palace, with just three grandmothers whom are old, so they were in the care of the maids" said Aunt Eshal, now almost all the women bowed there head in shame,
