As I stand here looking at the beautiful blue sky, there was a breeze but strangely for the first time it felt so nice to me. I walked really slow to enjoy this moment for once, but then it started raining heavily all of the sudden, yes, crying in the rain is the best, because no one could actually find out, have you ever cried in the rain? Well, it doesn't feel that bad. I walked and walked until I arrived home, of course I was all wet but like a crazy girl I liked it. Some people hated getting wet in the rain but I loved it, I would always go outside in the rain, but just like any other girl I am scared of storms and thunder.  I knocked on the door and waited for them to open it, this street was so quiet and calm, sometimes it made me feel lie I was in the forest. Once the door was open I smiled warmly at my mum and said salam to her, before going in. I have always loved my house, I mean who wouldn't, my house was very warm, cozy, and welcoming, I'm sure everyone house's is like that, I mean they should be like that, isn't it a place where a lovable family live in?

"Why are you wet again? I always tell you to take an umbrella with you but you never listen." My mum shouted at me once again, as soon as I came in. Well just like any other mum, my mum too doesn't want her children to get sick.

"I'm sorry mum, I know I'm twenty years old but I still act like a little kid, but I love staying in the rain." I apologized as I smiled at her. I went in and went straight away to my room, yes the room I like spending most of my time in, I got changed after having a warm quick shower, I wore my cute pink pajamas, like a little girl. I went downstairs after I was all ready, I should at least say a few words to my  family after coming back from work, right? As soon as I was downstairs my mum and dad seemed to be talking about something very important in the living room, but they kept quiet as soon as they saw me standing there like a ghost, I always did that I would just stand there doing nothing, yeah I sometimes even try to be like that girl in the movie 'the grudge' even though that movie was scary I still wanted to watch it, and remember if you have a long straight hair it's easy to scare people.

"Asama come sit here." My mum said as she moved a little bit from the sofa for me to sit, well I didn't need that much space anyway I was thin as a paper, I'm just kidding, imagine there was people who are thin like a paper, that would be scary, wouldn't it? I sat down and looked at my mum with concern, because this type of situation has never happened before. "Asma today someone came asking for your hand, well the dad did, the dad came asking for your hand for his son." My mum explained as she looked at me.

"And?" I asked while looking at her.

"And we agreed, I know we should have asked you but things turned out that way, you will understand after marriage."

"Okay." I said while smiling. I did so much to my family, no wonder they agreed to the marriage.

"Is that it? Why are you not angry, I mean you should be." My mum spoke quietly I feel sad just hearing her speaking to me I did a lot to her Allah forgive me.

"Mum listen Jannah is under your feet, at least I need to do something good in my life, even if that means I have to get married to someone I don't even know." Yeah at least that would make me feel better. I already feel bad about everything I did in the past.

"The wedding will be next Friday."

"It's okay." I said as I stood up and went straight away back to my lovely room. I just hope the guy is religious, and someone who will guide me to the right way and make me forget about everything that happened to me. After a few minutes of thinking, I fell asleep and woke up at the morning and I went to pray, I can't believe I didn't pray that much in my life it's stupid, I hope Allah will forgive me. Praying it's so important it is unbelievable how happy you feel just after praying. After finishing praying and everything I slowly went downstairs I'm a slow person, I'm not even lying, everyone was talking and shouting at each other but then they stopped as soon as I came down and as soon as they saw me they sat firm and started to chew their food slowly like those posh people. I sat down and looked at everyone who was looking at me with huge smiles on their faces, well some of them didn't have a smile on their faces really but that was okay, I just wanted to know what they were talking about. I'm very curious, I have a feeling they are talking about me.
