Chapter one: Drunk?

"Azoora aapiiii!! wake up. Its 2 in the afternoon!" a familiar voice yelled. It was my younger brother Aamir.

"Leave me alone or I will not hesitate in stealing your gaming CDs. I swear!" I yelled as I snuggled further into the blanket.

Ahh, the perks of being older to him.

"But.. I just wanted to let you know that it was kayas nikkah today.." He said softly. He then gasped. "Have you forgotten already?!" I heard him gasp again and continue. "You got drunk last night didn't you? I'm going to say mama!!" He yelled as he ran out of the room.

What the jahannam! Where did he even get the idea from?

Wait, did he just say kayas nikkah? Holy guacamole! How could I forget my best friends nikkah!! I though as I threw my cozy cotton blanket off my body.

Last nights was kayas bachelorette party which, Hana , kayas college friends and I had planned for her, at one of her favorite restaurants. I was dead tired by the time I returned home, which resulted me in knocking myself out the second I hit the bed.

Sooo.. I blame it on the party.

I walked into the washroom, brushed my teeth and had a warm shower before I quickly ran down the stairs to have my breakfast.

~~~~~~~~~

I started applying my makeup, opting on going for a simple look, I applied a bit of liner on my black doe eyes which made it look huger if possible and then I coated my lips with a light pink shade of lip gloss.

I slipped into my baby pink and pearl white parellel shalwar, which also consisted a light pink cigarette pant.

I got ahold of my freshly ironed light pink hijab which was resting on my bed, and walked towards the mirror to drape it.

My jet black pin straight hair hung down till mid thigh. My milk white skin as usual, oddly stood out. Every time I fussed about it, hana and Kaya would strongly disagree saying it was unique. It was mostly a pain because I blush at the slightest of things, which resulted me in looking like a tomato!

I gathered my hair together and wore it into a bun before I draped the hijab. I then loosely left the shalwars pink and white printed shawl on my left shoulder.

I slipped into my silver stiletto heels as I prayed that I dont trip, fall and die.

Praying that I dont trip and die was what I usually did every time I wore stiletto heels. Wearing heels was scary business.

I strapped my silver watch onto my hand looking at the time in the process, it was 5:02pm now.

I don't know if I was late or early, because we all know desi functions don't start until so many hours after the designated time.

kaya wanted us to be there a little early, around 4:30pm,  because apparently we could keep her sane. According to her, she'd 'lose her sanity' if she was left to be with all the aunties.

Dramatic much.

I removed my phone off the charger and stuffed it into my side bag and walked down the stairs.

I had to wait for Hana now. Hana was my other best friend.

Hana and myself planned on meeting at my place and then we could leave to kayas place together.

I dug into my messy bag, as I tried to my get phone so I could call Hana. After pulling out two lipbalms, a ring, and an hair tie, I eventually got ahold of the phone. How it got to the bottom of my bag, when I only put it in a minute ago, I would never know.

She picked up at the first ring.

"I'm right outside your house." Hana said ending the call. Well that was not rude at all.

I opened the door to come face to face with my gorgeous bestfriend.

She gave a cute grin as an apology.

"My car Wouldn't start until like 15 minutes and a hundred kicks later, I'm really sorry. Can we take your car since mines acting up? Or can we ask mohan to drop us? It would be so much easier. And I seriously have to send my car to the garage, I mean look at the state of it." She spoke all at once, which made her slightly run out of breath.

Mohan was our driver.

"Girly, first calm down, and Mohan is away for a week, so I'll drive its fine." I replied. "And don't worry, Ayaan will take it to the garage for you." I said referring to my older brother. "let me say mama I'm leaving and be back. Go start the car for me" I said tossing the car keys at her. "Be careful with my baby" I said to her, referring to my mustang.

She nodded her head and chuckled as I walked back in.

Mama was seated in TV room browsing through the channels looking for something good to watch when I walked in.

"Mama, I'm leaving. Assalamu alaikum" I said as I walked infront of her and hugged her. "Tell papa I left"

"Okay hayati. Take care of yourself and come back home safely. Don't get too late. Wa alaikum assalam." She replied.

I gave out a broad smile and kissed mamas forehead before I exited home.
