Chapter 3️⃣

KHADIJA'S POV

When I finished getting ready for the wedding I went out to go for my cousins' wedding although I don't talk to one of my cousins Jallaludeen, well it started because he liked me and my only solution was that it would be good if we don't talk to each other again.

Khadija stop wasting time and come out here let's go my mum yelled like a girl I always take time tying my scarf not make up because I hardly wear it but today my cousins did my make up so I was just busy looking for the perfect bag and shoe☺ mom am coming I just want to tie my headscarf I yelled back when I finished I came out to meet my mom who told me that I looked beautiful Masha Allah she was happy because I was putting on makeup and I was putting on my jewellery, I smiled then hugged her after some compliments I got from my cousins we then left the house to go to the wedding venue where the henna ceremony would take place when we got there only girls were allowed no boy was there so the women there were free to remove their scarfs.

I was making my hair for the wedding because you see I don't like making my hair I prefer to stay with my lovely Dija that I make myself, but my mum was not happy, so she forced me to lose my hair then she called the person who made my cousins hair to make mine, she was very angry because if she or my sister does not make their hair I will get angry and make it for them telling then the pride of a woman is her crown which is her hair but I don't like making mine she will always say Khadija lead by example take care of your crown before disturbing your sister and I . While the bride was doing her henna and the others were dancing, serving food, or waiting for the person they invited to arrive when I finished my hair I did my henna so I could escape from the crowd and go to get food to eat but first I had to allow the henna to dry first the annoying henna was taking time to get dried after waiting for like an eternity my henna dried finally but when I wanted to escape my mum told me to go upstairs and take care of the kids she had to spoil my plans I was happy and sad at the same time when I went upstairs I had to wash my henna first so I went to the guest washroom after washing my henna and cleaning the sink I took a clean towel to pat my henna dry after which I kept the towel in the laundry basket I was lazy to wash it. As I went to the living room where my mum told me the kids will be so I went to the living room to take care of my favourite people.

When I got there I was playing with my cousins, nieces and nephews when Ayan my cousin son said something funny I was laughing hard then I started playing a game if you can catch me where the kids tried catching me due to excitement we were all screaming, shouting and laughing like maniacs and the best part was that the people downstairs can't hear us so we we're free. We were having fun when the boys decided to disturb us it was Jalal who came out shouting kai kuna damum mu fah, me haka Kuma, kuna haukache neh, menene ma ke Saku dariyan banza ne haka kuna so kuji makanku chiwo neh(Hey you guys are disturbing ohhhh, what is the meaning of this now, are you guys mad now, what is even making you guys laugh stupidly now, do you want to injure yourselves) I heard him but I told the kids to continue playing with me that he won't flog them they happily obeyed we were playing when one of the kids called his name he smiled and then told me that he thought the kids were injured so he came to check up on them I then told him not to worry because nothing will happen to them when am around he smiled and left. I continued playing with the kids until I asked if they were hungry when they said yes I went to Jallal's room to ask where I met the whole geng we spoke for a while then I told Jallal to pls help me look after the kids I then asked them if they were hungry they said yes so I left to get the food for them because they are not allowed to go downstairs. I brought the food with the help of the maid we gave the kids first I took Jallal's food to the room I gave others theirs so went back to the living room to give Jallal his after which I took the kids to the girls' room which is close the Jallal's room so he can take care of them I helped him with his food to his room whole I told the maid to go back and I thanked her after helping him I bade the guys good night and left.

JALLALS'S POV.

My sisters' wedding was about to start and today they were going to have their henna day so boys are not allowed there we decided to stay upstairs since everything will happen downstairs, I was resting in my room when my mum told my brothers, cousins, friends and I to take care of all the kids we were all complaining when she said she will send someone who will obey her without complaining to take over from us or according to my mum to take over from the irresponsible boys in the house I told her thanks that I love her which earned me a smack from her I laughed while she went downstairs I was happy because at least today am going to finally have my peace and quiet while my annoying siblings will be downstairs. I decided to tell the kids to stay in the living room I gave them my laptop and I also switched the television on for them they were watching and they also had toys with them so I went to my room when my annoying geng decided to follow me they were jisting and playing PS while I was resting☺ I was happily resting until one the boys told me that the kids are shouting and they are scared what if one of them are injured I was getting angry so I stood up to go and check up on them in my heart praying no one is hurt or else am dead I then started shouting kai kuna damum mu fah, me haka kuma, kuna haukache neh, menene ma ke saku dariyan banza ne haka kuna so kuji makanku chiwo neh(Hey you guys are disturbing ohhhh, what is the meaning of this now, are you guys mad now, what is even making you guys laugh stupidly now,do you want to injure yourselves) since from room corridor even since before I entered the living room I was getting angry because they heard me shouting but they were still shouting and running normally they would keep quiet because they are scared of me when angry but they are still shouting which I found annoying when I finally entered the living room I was about to scold them again when I noticed they were all playing with a girl who was running around the dinning room I wanted to see who was making them happy so I waited for the girl to turn and when she was running out of the dining room I saw that it was Khadija I was happy to see her even if we don't talk much apart from greetings, hi ,welcome I was still missing her because I still loved her she is my first love after all I smiled and then when I was about to run from the Livingroom one of them shouted my name so I had no choice than to enter and talk to her☺ I went inside and smiled awkwardly saying hi Khadija she smiled saying Jalal kwana dayawa I was shocked because she hardly talk to me freely I was happy too because that was always my dream after telling her the reason I came out she was like I should not worry they are with her nothing will happen to them I smiled and left.

When I went back to my room I saw all the boys with a worried look on their faces I smiled and I decided to prank them when he went into the room he told them that Ayan got injured that was why they were shouting they became scared because Ayan is everyone's favourite and they will all be in trouble they were thinking of what to do when I started laughing because they were all scared and it was funny I told them they were just shouting because Khadija was with them they were happy that Khadija came they were about yo leave to meet her when someone knocked the door I yelled come on then in came the goddess of beauty, I smiled at the way they all went to meet her and they were busy shouting and making her laugh she was so comfortable talking to them which I wished could happen with me and her she the. asked us if we wanted small chops, drinks and food they all yelled yes she then told me to pls help her watch over the kids she smiled and the left, my friends were smiling making me frown I then left the room before they could start teasing me I went to the living room to take care of the kids when she came back she gave the kids their small chops each while she took the remaining to my room the maid was helping her with the trolley so I allowed them to continue what they were doing she came back with my own making me thank her which made her smile.

The kids were eating, and when they finished they started yawning so she took them to the girls' side so they could sleep which was close to my room that way I can monitor them when she was done she told me she was going downstairs, she apologized for having to make me look after the kids and she told me I could go back to my room if o wanted to I smiled and stood up she helped me with my food while she was going to my room to tell the boys bye the maid asked her if she should wait but she said she could go and thanked her when she entered the room she kept my food on the dresser and she told the boys bye that was the last time I saw her that day.
