After a week

I have been thinking about my decision and also about what he said. I have come to a conclusion now, maybe it's for the better. I walked to my grandfathers room after I prayed to Allah to help me if I'm not doing the right thing, I knocked on his door, I hear a faint come in . I walk in and see him in his study looking up at me. "For what do I owe this visit ?" Humor lacing his words, "grandpa tell them I said yes " I told him while my grandpa was shocked, he really thought that I would say no. He hugged me a kissed my forehead and said "I knew, you won't let me down" he said a grin plastered on his face . He told me to tell everyone to gather  in the living room, I did as I was told . Everyone was clueless as to why grandpa called for a sudden gathering.

Grandpa enters the room and the grin never leaving his face , "marbook everyone, Ayath said yes " everyone shocked at the news looked at then at my grandfather to see if this was any kind of trick , they all jumped on me after they realized that I actually said yes. Ammi comes to me and says "I knew you would say yes, he is the one for you " and then my dad embraces me and kisses my forehead while my other brother does the same but Hamza starts teasing " I knew it, the way you guys looked at each other proved it right" I rolled my eyes while grandpa announces that he is going to tell Hussein uncles family. He called his best friend and told him to gather his family around and put it on speaker, after 5 minutes or more Ahmed's grandpa told us that everyone is around. "Marbook, Ayath said yes " as soon as those words left his mouth we could hear everyone's excitement in their voices including Ahmeds. Ahmed's family was invited for tea so they could discuss about the wedding, engagement and stuff. It is 3pm now and Ahmed's family is coming over at 4 so one hour more. I prayed and started dressing up, ammi told me to dress nicely like the other day cause normally when uncle Husseins family comes over I'm least bothered to dress up cause we have known each other all our lives.

I wore this ^ , minus the heals.

I was busy looking at myself in the mirror I didn't hear Aida come in. I turned around to find her looking at me, "Aida have you got any idea what you just did , you scared the hell out of me " she smiled sheepishly and told me " looks like someone's actually wants to care about how she looks " I ignored her and walked toward the bed to grab my phone while she said " do you know Ahmed Bhai spent the last one hour looking for a shirt, you guys are love struck man ", "the last one hour ?" I asked her and she nodded agreeing " I'm not like your brother btw I spent only 15 minutes to actually find a dress and change , so it's not me whose love struck habibthi " I told her " oh I forgot aunty told me to call you downstairs "she told me . We walked downstairs our hands tucked together, I removed my hands and walked towards the living room , the men's , cause our parents wanted a mixed gathering so everyone could voice their thoughts. I said my salams and walked towards Ahmed's mum who called me to sit next to her. She kissed my forehead and said " I'm over the moon that Ahmed is going to get a you as his wife " I smiled at her while I could feel someone's eyes on me, I looked up to find Ahmed looking at me, he smiled when he saw me looking at him, he was wearing a drak blue button up shirt and a beige pants and brown shoes  . 

This is Ahmed's outfit ^^

I looked down aware that everyone else is in the room the elders started talking about the engagement, nikkah, wedding and stuff. After exactly 2 hours of talking they came to a conclusion that the engagement would be on Saturday  that's 3 days  away and  the nikkah next Friday that's only 10 days away and then the wedding and waleema in a months time. I made sure I tell them that I want to keep it as simple as it can be done. They agreed and left not before the teases and jokes from everyone making Ahmed and me blush.
