Two months later......

Jawahir's expected date of birth is nearing, she has not been in her best mood lately because to her she looks like an elephant, Muhammad too is tired of her never ending mood swings some times she's all emotional and vulnerable sometimes she's ranting or complaing about unnecessary things or a times she'll throw tantrums about wanting the baby out of her and Muhammad has to be patient no matter what.

Jawahir is making arrangement today she's organizing a simple family gathering which involves only the twins and thier husbands,mareena and her family,samira with her family too,and also hafsa with her family, jawahirs paternal cousins who live in katsina sadiq and khadija, khadija has been staying with mama for almost a month everyone is now aware of her illness jawahir cried for days when she found out she moved back to mama's place and stayed there for almost two week mama had to force her to come back home before she came back hence khadija decided to move back with mama because they love each other so much that people who don't will she's her daughter,sadeeq came last week to visit hencejaeahir invited them.and lastly basma who came since yesterday to help jawahir,basma is now more like a sister to jawahir they hang out alot these days,jawahir has changed some of basma's bad habit,basma is worried this days because daddy has been on her toe to present one of her boyfriends to him and no be of them are serious about her.

"Jawahir wallahi non of them are serious whenever I try talking to them they snub the topic I'm tired I'll just tell daddy to choose whoever he feel is right"she said as they finish setting everything.

"Don't worry just keep praying for the best Insha Allah"jawahir said patting her shoulders.

"Insha Allah,let's wrap this up the guest will be arriving any moment form now"basma suggested.

"Lest go and take our bath talatu will finish up"jawahir said dragging basma out of the kitchen. The took thier bath and dress up, jawahir a black long abaya which made her look a little bit fatter and her bump a bit while basma dressed up in an Ankara skirt and blouse before she head downstairs while jawahir went to Muhammad's to check up on him. She hear the sound of the shower running when she entered the room so she just took out his cloth before walking out. She met basma sitted in the living room because they were done arranging everything in the garden. Khadija was the first person to arrive she told them that sadeeq will join them shortly.

"I don't know why but you look awfully familiar"khadija said to basma and basma smiled at her in surprise.

"Maybe we met somewhere in katsina I can't remember but you also look familiar "basma said too she has been trying to figure out where she know khadija since the first day she saw her.

"Yeah what ever you two let's move out and wait for them"jawahir said dragging them out.

"What is with this woman and dragging people these days"basma muttered to no one in particular. Nafeesa and her husband arrived first followed by sameera and her family and the rest kept coming one by one except for sadeeq who hasn't arrived yet.

They started having thier launch gisting the kids are playing in the other side, basma decided to step out for a bit as she step outside the door she collided with something hard but not as hard as a rock she looked from the shoe of the person standing in front of her up to the face.

"Sadeeq...."She said in surprise

"Basma..."he muttered at the Same time as she with equal surprise.

"What are you doing here"they asked at the Same time.

"Sadeequuuuu"jawahir squealed from behind them "look at you looking all tall and handsome"she said holding him by his shoulder while he stood there still trying to figure out what basma was doing there so does basma.
