"This week was so hectic", Mum cried. She sat on the couch with a huge sigh. I felt bad for her since she'd been working so much this week and eye bags were very visible on her face.

"Awww... you look so tired Mama, do you want me to make you some tea, to make you feel better?", I asked apologetically.

"Huh? Did you just offer to do some work? Wow! This is a miracle!", She yelled.

"Come on Mama, you know I am the most hardworking child", I rolled my eyes.

"What?! Safaa and work just don't go", Ariana yelled from across the house making me roll my eyes once again. I ignored their comments and went to the kitchen to make some tea for Mama.

Once the tea was prepared, I brought it in the living room along with some biscuits, Desi style.

However, when I went into the living room, instead of finding Mum there, I found Sameed, Zaid, Zubair and... yep you guessed it... Ayaan. I let out an inward groan and glared at them all.

"Well Hello to you too", Sameed said.

"No thanks", I replied. I turned back to the kitchen but then Mama called me.

"Safaa, since you're in the kitchen, please make some tea for the boys as well", she ordered. Do I look like a housemaid? The boys snickered to my annoyance but I gave them one of my worst glares which quickly shut them up.

I served the boys their precious tea and left from there but was stopped by a hand grabbing mine.

"Where are you going... babydoll", Zaid said with a smirk. My eyes unconsciously rolled. It's a surprise my eyes haven't stayed like that with all the eye rolling I've been doing.

"Shut up Zaid, go flirt with someone of your age", I said and left from there as quickly as I could and joined Ariana who was practicing a new makeup look.

Later on, when Sameed's friends had left, Mama called us to dinner which we ate wholeheartedly.

"Kids I almost forgot to tell you, we got an invitation to Farah's wedding two weeks later", Baba announced. I almost choked on my water and Ariana gently patted my back.

"What?! She didn't even tell me about it! Mama Baba I must go", I rushed out of the dining room and called Farah. When she finally answered after five rings I yelled at her.

"You fool! Why didn't you tell me about your wedding! Do you know I just got to know from Baba now! Why didn't you think of me first, were you that selfish! Don't talk to me now, I'm very angry!", I screamed at her at the top of my voice. I kept on rambling until she cut me off.

"Shut up! I have a fair explanation for this okay!", she shouted on the other side.

"Go on".

"Okay so, if you don't know, my parents arranged for me to get married to a guy two weeks ago and I only found out a week ago and I didn't tell anybody because nothing was finalized and I met the guy this week and everything was finalized yesterday... it all happened in such a rush. I was going to call you today but you already found out", she explained and I let out a sigh.

"Okay, I'm sorry but I should've known", I pouted.

"Fine I'm sorry too, and I know my Safaa won't be mad at me for too long", she teased and I huffed.

"Okay soo... who's the guy?", I teased, wiggling my eyebrows, but then I realized she couldn't see me and I straightened them.

"Okay... so you won't believe it, but his name is... Zubair", she finally let out and my eyes widened.

"Oh my god!!!! Zubair!? As in our friend?", I couldn't believe it. I started screaming and jumping up and down in excitement.

I can't believe two of my friends are getting married. I'm so happy for them and more excited about the wedding.
