"Pretty, you really need to put pressure on that lecturer. He is our only hope right now" deeja said looking around for somewhere to seat.

"Let's seat over there dee," another pointed to a seat opposite where nooriyya and her friends sat. They made their way to the seat without noticing them.

"I am really trying, but the idiot is trying to act too smart. I know how to deal with him though, he will soon be eating at the center of my palm" the one called pretty said, in an over confident voice.

"I trust you b**ch" deejah said laughing while raising her hand for a high five.

The three of them deeja dr. Munnir's bride, her friend pretty and Lina are best of friends in the school. Pretty and Lina knew each other before university. They attended the same secondary school, they are those girls that always follow the boys around in school and are ready to attend any party they heard about. When they graduated school, they applied for the same university and the same course. They first met deeja on the queue to collect admission letter, Lina was thirsty and the canteen was too far from the place they were, pretty saw deeja with a bottle of water and asked if she could share with them. She gave them without hesitation,  pretty got to flirt with an official that could help them get their admission letters easily without joining the long queue, they asked deejah to tag along, from that moment their friendship was born. At first they thought deejah was this sweet innocent girl, until she unleashed her true character. She followed them quietly around for a while as their third wheel, studying them before she showed them her true color. Lina and pretty being new to the town while deejah was born and bred there, gave her an advantage over them. She introduced them to her male friends and to every club she knows,this was how their friendship came to be.

Khadija is a daughter to hajja Faty and Alhaji bashir Abu, hajja Faty is a very big business woman. She has lots of shops and travels abroad all the time. Her husband is a civil servant with not much salary, she over powered the household controlling him. They only have one daughter deejah, hajja Faty spoiled her rotten and gave her too much freedom. Due to her business travels, deejah learnt a lot of things and had no one to call her out on that. She became her own person, what ever she want her mum gives while her father only watch from the sideline. From the moment deejah saw munnir she wanted him and her mother promised to make that happen, they tried numerous time and failed but finally she got the man for herself.

"Is that not your husband's ex?" Lina pointed to the table opposite theirs where nooriyya and her friends sat.

They all looked towards the direction, " that's definitely her. Your husband's ex, almost wife" pretty added while deejah's eyes turned stormy. Even though she ended up being munnir's wife but munnir still loves nooriyya, he is still hung up on her love. She's just married to him in name but he hasn't even given her second glance. He leaves home early and come home late, they barely meet not that they know anything about that.

Looking at her now, makes the blood in her veins boil, what does she even have that he is so hung up on her? the fact that her husband gives her the cold shoulder is degrading and embarrassing though she still see her guys at the side, that's what is actually keeping her sane. Mtsww...she hissed looking back at nooriyya who was laughing at a story siyam was telling them but what she only saw was nooriyya laughing at her miserable and pathetic marriage life.

"I heard she actually got married to another guy the same day you got married, he is probably some old poor guy with 3 wives. Because I don't see any sane guy marrying a long time prostitute with a BASTARD" said Lina with fake garg.

"Let us go there and brag, you got the guy" pretty said standing up. Agreeing with her deejah took the lead pulling her game face on.

"Look! What we have here, Little miss innocent with a bastard child" deejah said beaming a big smile showing her teeth, hovering above nooriyya.
