~Zoya's pov~
" Kidar ho yaar?" I called my older brother, Aadnan.
" Yaar bus ponch ra hoon" he replies.
" Had hai yaar tees (30) minute hogaye hai meri flight ko land hue aur tum abhi talk nahi aye , mama ko baton gi" I said.
" Acha, acha bata dena" he says.
" ok bye aur Jaldi poncho" I say and hang up".
My name's Zoya, friends call me zee. My dad calls me bilo sometimes. I'm 19. I study in New York but I came to Virginia for my sister, Khirad's wedding. I still can't believe she's getting married in a month and half. She's 24.Right now,I'm here at the airport waiting for my dumb older brother, Aadnan. He's 22 but still acts like he's 5. He was supposed to pick me up 30 minutes ago, but he's still not here.
" BOO!!" Someone screams in my ear.
"AHHHH!!" I scream and turn around to see Aadnan.
" Idiot.you scared me" I say, as I give him a hug.
" I miss you" he says, as we part from the hug.
" I did too, ab yeh trolly tum push karo, god it's heavy" I say. He rolled eyes.
"Tum kabhi nahi badlo gi" he says.
"Whatever" I say. We walk to Aadnan's car. He unlocks the car and I open the door and sit down. About five minutes later, he comes and sits down. We drive home.
~45 minutes later~
Aadnan unlocks the door. I walk into the kitchen and see my mom cooking and Khirad sitting on the counter eating a apple.
"Aslam alaikum mama" I say and give her a hug.
"Walaikum Salam. Kesi ho meri beti?" she replies, as we part the hug.
"Main teek hoon aur ap?" I ask.
"Main bhi teek hoon" she says.
"Aur dulhan ji ap?" I say, sitting on the counter and poking her.
"Ouch." She said moving my hand, "aur main teek hoon."
"Aur voh?" I whisper in her ear.
"Voh kaun?" she says.
"Bano mat, Zaroon bhai aur kaun" I say,smirking.
"Shut up" she says, blushing getting off the counter.
"Aww look whose blushing?" I tease her.
"Mama isko kaho mujhe na chare" Khirad says.
"Zoya beta, na tang karo usko" mama says.
"Maine kuch nahi kiya" I said, putting my hands up in defense.
"Acha beta, apni dadi ko salam ki hai?" She asks. God I wanted to avoid this.
"Karlongi unko bhi salam" I whisper to myself.
"Kya beta?" She asks.
"Nahi mama voh kuch nahi,main bathroom se ho ke ati hoon" I say, getting of the counter.
"Aur ha beta, raat ko tumhare taya Abu aare hain" she says.
"Acha" was my short reply.I got up and went to the living room and I saw my dad and my dadi sitting and watching tv. I really don't like my dadi. She wants to control everything. She's really against me studying in New York. She hates my dressing. She wants me to wear shalwar kameez all the time. I mean, I don't hate shalwar kameez, but all the time, no.
"Aslam alaikum baba, Aslam alaikum dado" I say. I give my dad a hug, then my dado and sit next to her.
"Walaikum Salam" they both say.
"Beta kapre toh sahi pa laya kar, pata nay kado akal avegi es kuri nu" she says. As I said she has to criticize me.
"Ji dado" I say and get up.
"Beta, raat ko tumhare taya Abu are hain" baba says.
"Ji mama ne bataya tha" I say and leave.
I go upstairs and go to my room, slamming the door behind me. I see my suit cases on the floor. I open one of the suitcases and take out my turquoise kameez with a orange border and gold designs on the bottom with a turquoise churidar. I go to the bathroom and take a quick shower, not washing my hair. I put my clothes on. I brush my hair and put it into a high ponytail. I put on some kajal and mascara. Then I put on some blush and grab my dubata . I open my door to see my cousin,Hashim. He's my taya abu's only son and my closest cousin. He's 20. Aur meri dadi ki jaan hai is me.
"Oh hey Hashim how r u?" I say.
"Main teek hoon tum kesi ho?" He replies.
"Main bhi teek hoon" I say.
"Umm chalo neeche sub tumhara wait kare hain" he says. I smile and nod. He moves to the side letting me walk by. We walk down stairs and I see my taya abu and tayi ami. I go and say salam to them.
"Beta, apna khayal nahi rakhti. Itna da mun nikaal aya hai tumhara" tayi ami says. I open my mouth to say something but Hashim cuts me off.
"Ami apko nahi pata larkiyon ko dieting ki bumari hoti hai" Hashim says. I gave him a glare. He just laughed it off. After that, we ate my mom's delicious food. Man I missed her cooking. Then my mom told me to go make chai. I was making chai when my phone rang. It was my bestfriend/roommate, Asma.
"Hey jaani" I say.
"Hey, kesi ho?" She says.
"Main teek, tum sunao? Mujhe miss Kari ho na" I say.
"Ha yaar I miss you" she says, sadly.
"I miss you too, acha I'll called you later, I have to go give chai to everyone"I say.
"Whose everyone?" She says,curious.
"Mama,Baba, Aadnan, Khirad baji, tayi ami, taya abu, and Hashim" I say.
"Wow houseful" she says.
"Yea, ok I have to go now, bye love you" I say.
"Bye love you too" she says.
I put the tea in cups, and put them in the tray. I took the tray to the living room. I went inside to see Hashim laying down with his head on my dadis lap. I just ignored them and faced everyone chai. After about an hour, they were leaving and I hugged taya abu and tayi ami. Then, Hashim came up to me and held my hand and pulled me closer and whispered in my ear"later babes" and winked. I just stood there wide eyed. Babes? Really. Whatever. I went and helped mama clean up.
"Voh agle kafte tumhare baba ke dost are hain New York se" my mom said while putting the dishes in the dishwasher.
"Acha kaunse dost?" I ask.
"Asif uncle" she says.
"Acha" I say, even though I have no clue who that is. I finish cleaning up and go upstairs and sit with Khirad baji. We talk for a bit, then we watch ddlj and doze off.
~Hussain pov~
"Shehry, Hussain baat sunno" my mom called us.
"Ji mama aye" we say in unision. We go and sit on the couch, next to our mom.
"Agle hafte hum tumhare abu ke dost ki beti ki shaadi pe jayenge, Virgina do(2) hafton ke liye" mama says.
"Kaunse dost?" Shehry asks.
"Javed uncle, unke do(2) betiyan hai aur aik beta" mama says.
"acha" we both say. I wonder who they are, never heard of them. Lekin Hussain ko sab pasand karte hain. Oh well I guess I should start packing.
