You 2 can just go.
Also I'm sorry to either of you if my actions hurt you both." she say and ammar give her a certain look as though Trying to read her mind but he couldn't place a finger to why she's behaving  grumpy this early morning.

"Amina if it's because of me you........

"I'm not doing anything because of you zainab, I'm doing it for me and my wellbeing, so what if Ammar want to go umrah with you?
He's your husband to and we've been to umrah numerously so why do i have to squash your own moment of happiness,
I don't have problem or whatsoever with you i just want to be okay, only me know what I'm dealing with psychologically."Amina say and come down from the stool, she excuse herself and exit the kitchen.
