•NAJMA's POV•

"So what you're saying is we have to leave our house because our grandparents are coming home ? Not only are we leaving the house but we're leaving the country as well ?" questions Leila with an enraged expression on her face.

"Yes Leila, that's it but please calm down" my father says trying to calm her down and all I do is just look at them because I don't even know what to say. This situation has no sense !

"But this has no sense dad, we can't" she says as if she's reading in my mind "Did you even bother to tell Zouhair ?"

"Of course, who do you think I am ? Ok Leila enough ! I'm your father you can't talk to me like I'm your child" shouts dad with the same angry expression as her.

She mutters something before turning her gaze to mum who is sitting on the loveseat "And you mum why don't you say anything ? You're just nonchalantly drinking your tea as if everything is fine"

"Because everything is fine habibty, just put in your mind that we are going for holidays, a change of atmosphere for a couple of weeks won't kill you"

"But I have a job ummi, I can't just leave ! Anyways, I'm out, bye !"

She's gone, she sprinted out of the house to God knows where.

I think it's now my turn to say something, I've been silent for about 20minutes because I didn't want to disturb the sweet conversation between Leila and dad.

"So dad, where are we going to and when are we going ?" I ask, all excited because I love travelling ! As mum said, a change in atmosphere won't kill so why not give it a try ?

"First thing in the morning habibty, just make sure to take everything you need okay ?" He says with an apologetic look "and please call Zouhair, tell him to go to the airport with his wife and kids first thing in the morning"

"I thought you told him already"

"No I didn't, I just wanted Leila to calm down" he replies, with his tired face and I nod before going upstairs to my room.

"Wait, what ? Why didn't he tell me earlier?" Asks Zouhair from the other side of the call.

"I have no idea, just make sure to be early and I think Leila will be at your place in some minutes, she's very furious"

"Okay I got it, love you babygirl and goodnight" he says before cutting off the call.

I lazily get out of my bed and walk to the wardrobe to pack my stuffs then head to the bathroom to take everything needed for my hygiene.

I then wear my pajamas so as to sleep comfortably.

Incoming call from Leila

Oh see who decided to call their sister ?

I instantly pick it up then say "oh hello there dear sister how are you?"

"I'm good Najma I called to ask you to please and please go pack my bag, take any dress of your choice, I trust you in that. Please do it" she beseeches me, the kind babygirl.

"You'll pay me for that, good night"

With that said, I go to her room and take everything she will need and just sleep in her room because I'm too lazy to change room now.
