**Amal's POV**

Sitting in the car with Aysha, Thume and Muhammad, I couldn't stop wondering the fact that I'll be going to my husband's house after this event which we are heading to.

Yesterday was fun. After the yinin biki my friends and sisters gave me a suprised bridal shower. Yeah even though I'm not in support of this marriage I still had my dream of a surprise bridal shower fulfilled by them and I all love them for that.

I jolted back from my thought after feeling the instant stop of the car which was parked immediately outside the kamu hall.

I was ushered out by Aisha and there was announcement on the bride's arrival which the DJ played the entry song. With my friend's dancing we all entered the hall, me praying the soil would just swallow me up.

The groom's family came and there was negotiations between them and my friends before they finally got to see my face. Some sprayed perfume on me while some where with bakhoor.

The groom and his friends arrived not later and the event ended with everyone dancing and my friends forcing me to dance too.

We left the kamu venue around 4pm and I was taken back home. I took my scented bath and was sprayed with bakhoor. Sakina, my beautifician was very sad as that would be our last meeting. I was happy I didn't have to be choked with bakhoor again but at the same time going to miss Sakina too, no lies she's a very nice woman.

After my bath, I was dressed into a pure white laffaya with flowery patterns on it. It was once my mother's. Ya' Ameenah told me that mom was taken to her house with the same lifaya and wanted me to were it on my wedding but then she wasn't there to put it on me, so instead Ya'Ameenah helped to put it on.

I was taken to my mother's side where my aunties were to do the fadan aure ( wedding precautions or lecture ). I cried like a lost baby who doesn't know anyone. I didn't even hear the last part of their warnings cause I was all a mess then. After I was taken to my father's side where he and Ummah were seated waiting for me. Ummah gave me some advice before leaving me with my father.

"I know I haven't been the best, caring and understanding father but here this old man is asking for your forgiveness. God bless you and your marriage. Insha Allah this union would be noting but kair. May God bless you with lovely children and a happy married life. Here this is for you. Don't open it till you get to your house and the rest would be given to you by Mujaheed at your house." He said giving me a gift bag. Ya Ameenah told us the cars sent by the groom's family had arrived. Mouthing a thank you to my father and with a hug which ya Ameenah had to pull me away from him we left for the car.

I, Aisha, Thume and Ya Zainab with Muhammad driving headed to my in-laws' house.

How weird does it sound to call it my in-laws' house. I kept sobbing in the car thinking of leaving all my childhood memories with the house behind just for a man that doesn't even love me.

We were welcomed with open arms and their also his aunties gave me some advice too. After that, we were summoned to a room were a make-up artist was waiting for my arrival. I got my face washed before the make-up artist started her work of magic on me not after I worked her not to put heavy makeup on me.
