I closed the chat on BBM, put my phone down on my bed and sighed.
What on earth should I wear? and more importantly how am I supposed to tell hoyo that I'm off to Nadia's for a 'sleep over'? I mean hoyo isn't stupid she'd guess I'm up to something right up, like the time I was dating a guy called Idris and Nadia thinking she was the best person to plan anything ever thought I could fool hoyo into letting me stay at hers and at about 9pm hoyo went to Asda and saw me hanging round the park with him, I swear down I didn't look her at her face for about a month and in turn I also dropped Idris.
I was creeping downstairs one foot after another and peering through the stairs onto the kitchen, listening attentively and all I was hearing hoyo on the phone." phew when Hoyo's on the phone I usually get what I want" All of a sudden I was hearing battle- like cries and before I had the chance to get to the last step of the stairs, 3 of my brothers ran into me telling me to move. I started shouting back which in turn made hoyo shout at us. "oh boy this isn't good "I creeped into the kitchen and sat down, as soon as she put the phone down,hoyo crossed her arms and said sharply:
" Jamilah, why has Nadia's hoyo called and asked if you could sleep over for the night?"
I stared hard into the ground and after what seemed like a minute I jumbled in a flash " Hoyo you already know her sister went to Egypt a month ago today, and she needs some girl time, and hoyo I have coursework and my quran work to get onto and she said she would help me."
Hoyo was going to interrupt me but my eldest brother Malik came and told her he was getting married. After the interrogation of who the girl was, which seemed to be taking forever, I told hoyo I was getting changed and filled my bag with my MAC makeup, my fake nails, my lighter, my heels, my curlers and my hooped earrings and my favourite bondage dress. I wore a jilbaab which was a long outer cloak and a scarf underneath it so it made it seem I wasn't going to do anything sneaky and in my bag I placed my college books and a islamic book which hoyo bought me but I never read and some perfume just in case.
As I approached the door hoyo stopped me.
" Nayya where are you going?"
I answered back " You said I was allowed to go to Nadia's house"
As I said that my bottom lip quivered a little and Hoyo scrutinzed me, looking up and down, and as I thought she was going to refuse she suddenly hugged me tight and then after, she looked into my eyes " I trust you Jamilah, I have no help in this house except you and Malik and I don't want you to break it, May Allah bless you Jamilah macaan"
I swallowed the lump at the back of my throat and all I was managing to reply back croackily was " haye hoyo."
I went to call Nadia as soon as I went outside and told her to keep her front door open so I could rush in without getting caught. I ran in and squirmed with laughter and ran upstairs shouting " HEY NADIA'S MUM." As soon as I got into Nadia's room I closed the door and smiled as I tipped my bag and put some music on. Nadia decided to start on my makeup and I was busy doing my hair. I started to ask her how Danyaal looked like and she just told me he's cute and when I wanted more info she told me to shut up. After she had finished I fixed my fringe and put my nose ring in and wore my red bondage dress and after adjusting it so it didn't look too short, I applied red lipstick on my lips in such precise flicks and I slipped into my heels, not before putting lotion on my legs and arms.
Nadia took 15 minutes to get ready and we took a taxi, considering it was packed it took us 20 minutes to get to David's boat party, and it was nothing we would expect any party to have been like.
