Uzair.

"When your parents get here?" Ahmed asked me. I shrugged as an answer because I don't know about it either. 

"I don't know." My parents were going to pick my sister and nephew at their house as her husband is going out of the city for a few days and bring them to him. Mom called me an hour ago to inform me that they will be here soon. 

"They are here." Ahmed says suddenly making me frown. I turned around and saw where he was looking. I sigh and shake my head turning back to him. "I am going to welcome them. Are you coming with us?" I nodded and went with him to welcome the groom family and friends. As they enter the music started.

"Didn't Umair family arrives here before?" I asked him. He looks at me confused and shake his head. I shrugged, thinking maybe I saw someone else. We stood beside Hussyan welcoming everyone. We smiled and shake our hands with them. My smile faded when I saw the girl from earlier walking beside Umair. 

"Who is she?" I asked quietly to Ahmed. He look at where I was pointing. 

"She is Umair sister. Didn't you remember her from their engagement?" He asked back after telling me about her. I shake my head because I don't really remember her.

"I saw her earlier in the back of the hall." I told him. He shrugged, saying that I have seen someone else or maybe she came to see the Maham.

"Where are your parents?" Hussyan asked once groom's side was seated. I look at Ahmed but he takes a step back without Hussyan noticing him. 

"They are on their way." I told him a lie making he nodded and he walk away. I don't really want him to get worried or upset. I can see how much he is trying to make everything perfect for his sister wedding. He invite everyone who was close to him and his siblings in school and college. 

"Who is she?" I look and saw a group girl standing in the corner with his elder sister. 

"Which one?" I asked him back and saw Sila making her way toward us. 

"The one in the purple dress." He says. I look and shrugged. I don't know, maybe from the groom's side. I was about to tell him that, but Sila cut me off. 

"She is Samairah, Maham friend from college. Maham brings her home a few times when you were away for business trip." Her answerhis question. She looks at her then at Ahmed, who was still looking at her. "Why?"

"She is beautiful." He says without thinking making me laugh while Sila hit him on the back of his head. He rubbed his head and glared at her. 

"Stop looking at her like that." She scold him, but he rolled his eyes at her and again look at the group of girls. Samaria excuse herself and went to greet Sila Mom. 

"I am just saying. Maybe I should talk to her." Ahmed smirk and give me a wink before walking toward her. Sila looks at him with wide eyes and quickly follow him. I shake my head with a smile and look down at my phone when it starts ringing. I saw Mom name flashing on screen and pick up her call.

"Yes, Mom?" I ask as I put the phone on my ear. I heard her saying something, but didn't get it. I walk at the back of the hall where music wasn't loud. 

"We get stuck in traffic. We will be there soon." I smiled and nodded. 

"Okay. Take care." I bid my goodbyes and cut the call. I was heading back in front when my phone ring again and saw Henry name. 

"It is time for Nikkah." I heard and look toward the hallway that lead to the front. I swipe my finger to answer it and walk further in the back.
