I sat down on the toilet floor remembering what happend 

so I am actually getting married in the next 48 hours and I've just been told actually my life is so pathetic I want to cry but the tears are not willing to come so I just sat there actually thinking of nothing .

Oh sorry where  are my manners I am Hauwah  Ahmad  Yusuf (amrah),I am 21 a final year student in buk studying dietetics and nutrition,

actually my life is screwed up .
What happened was
" Yaya amrah babba is calling u and he looked serious and Mami is looking like she is on the verge of crying I don't know what happened" said afrah my youngest sister.

I hurriedly wore my full length hijab and headed to babba's palour

and that was when he dropped the bomb as I entered said my Salam and sat on the perisan rough on the floor

  babba called me 'hauwa'u you know we are your parents and will never do anything that would hurt you right' I just nodded he said Masha Allah then You've heard of  my friend Alhaji bulama right I just nodded yet again

I remembered on their last vacation my sister's told me that they met with the bulamas in Italy.

ok he came with a marriage proposal for his son and I accepted it and the wedding fathiha will take place on Friday after prayer in Sha Allah

I just stared at him and said this Friday or next and he said the day after tomorrow I just said Allah ya kaimu. And stood up to left the palour

I heard him say something like Allah ya Miki albarka  my mum was just quiet.
i left the palour and headed back to the balcony where we were earlier with my sisters playing Monopoly we have a very small family mami,babba,ya a'aban,me,rahat and afrah.Immidiately  I entered the balcony rahat and afrah started asking me why I was summoned I chose to ignore them and continued playing our game

5minutes later they noticed I was not fully concentrated in what we were doing they turned to ask me what happened putting on a serious  faces I told them It was nothing serious but my sister's being my sister's never back down  they decided to call ya a'aban and tell him that I was hiding something from them the three of them were starting to piss me off

I angrily got up and yelled'i am getting married on Friday so now will u guys please let me rest' and headed to my room.

I am so confused right now so I performed ablution got into my room spread my prayer mat and prayed two nawafils prolonged my sujud and ask Allah to see me through this difficulty said my Salam read 1juz and headed to bed

I started thinking of the person I'll be getting married to if he too is being forced will he be good to me many thoughts clouded my head and I was so confused then I remembered that my last paper will be five days from now I think reading is the only thing that will make me buzy for now

I was so engrossed in my reading when I heard a soft knock on the door I stood up to go open the door there stood my two sisters with a tray bowls popcorn chocolate and my favorite cerelac and rahat's MacBook I smile brightly even with our age differences they still understand me I am four years older than rahat and eight years older than afrah but they've always got my back in situations like this since babba is fond of making decisions like this for me
They cheered me up and didn't talk about it again we watched zootopia again cause it's afrah's favorite we actually watch zootopia any time she's asked to choose some thing to watch then watched tom and Jerry childish right they ended up sleeping in my room
