Yasmin waited for the complex gate to open when the guard,Thando came to give her something.

"Good afternoon Ma'am.Someone dropped this off for you."

"Thank you Thando." Yasmin smiled at him taking the envelope and she drove to her flat block.

Yasmin was glad that it was finally the holidays and she could stay home all day,doing nothing.

Yasmin entered the flat and after kicking off her shoes she brought the envelope closer.

Yasmin set the letter on the couch and she took a deep breath.

Zahraa had finally contacted her and she was getting married.Wow,where had the time gone?

Yasmin glanced at the letter and she smiled.Her Zazu was getting married and she had not known a thing.Her smile slipped away and Yasmin did not know what to think.

After Muhammed passed away she had cut each and every contact with her friends.She had deactivated her Instagram account and changed her number.Her parents had known not to give anyone her number and she was fine with her life being this way.

Alone.

The doorbell rang and Yasmin quickly got up.She checked from the peephole only to see Maryam and Yacoob,she opened the door.
