2~ The occasion.

The week went by in a swift and before I knew it, it was Saturday already, mum decided during the week to hold her occasional prayer session today so we have been very busy making preparations on how the event was going to turn out well. In this occasion my mum usually invites all her friends, muslim sisters, and well knowledgeable women to give sermons.

The event is a very enlightening and fun filled one, I was the one in charge of making the meal for the event so I was extra busy, I also invited my friend Aisha but I know she'll always be late I trust her, she's my colleague at work and also my mum's friend daughter.

I was in the kitchen making syrup filled doughnuts my specialty which I learnt from my mum whom is the best cook I know up till now, I was about to mix the dough when I noticed my eyes has been covered, I know it must be Aisha who will do that she's very playful than you can imagine.

"Aisha I know it's you" I said,

"no it's not me" she replied, trying to imitate a manly type of voice,

"you just gave yourself out Aisha by putting the word "me" in your sentence" I replied,

"why do you have to be so brilliant" she said as she removed her hand from my eyes,

I rolled my eyes at her then all of a sudden she jumped on me and started shouting happily "guess what" "guess what",

"uhmm you've finished your hifz" I said,

"no no no not that, try again try again" she said in a rhythmical manner,

"urghh Aisha you know I'm not good at guessing just tell me already" I said, giving her a puppy eyes,

"uhh stop giving me that eyes you know I can't resist it, ok ok ok count 1 - 10" she said grinning from ear to ear,

"subhanALLAH Aisha don't tell me again, I'm not interested again don't tell me" I said feigning anger,

"ok ok Mrs angry bird I'll tell you" she said, I rolled my eyes at her,

"I'm getting married" she said swiftly smiling sheepishly,

"wow mashaALLAH I'm so happy for you my love, allahuma barik" I said as I hugged her,

"thank you and stop acting formal it's annoying" she said as she blushed,

I smiled at the way she was acting, "so who's the lucky guy uhnnnn?" I said teasing her,

"it's aadil", I wanted to talk when she quickly cut me off "I know I said I wasn't going to accept his proposal but different things just happened and after my istikharah and much thought I finally decided to spend the rest of my life with him"

"awwn that's so beautiful, and just so you know I wasn't about to ask you any question, I'm happy as long as you're happy and may Almighty Allah bless your union" I said smiling sincerely at her,

"thank you Fatima, may Almighty Allah bless you and grant you the best spouse" she replied,

"ameen ameen dear" I said tapping her shoulder lightly and nodding in concurrence,

"ok aadil's wife let's get to business and finish this, the guests will soon be here" I said and she blushed hardly.

We finished the doughnuts made some other snacks and drinks were already made available by dad, I and aisha went to my room to freshen up so we could join the event.

The event was a very interesting one a lot of sermons were made on different topics and now was the time for refreshments.

I,aisha and maryam served all the guests since no male was present, I saw aisha's mum sitting close to my mom so I went down to her to greet her politely I saw her holding an invitation card,
