"Arina! Arina, Where are you? Come fast everyone's waiting for you for the past half an hour!!"
I hear mama shouting from downstairs while I'm packing my toiletries for the trip to Florida. I woke up late because of which I wasn't able to get done with my morning routine on time but we are travelling in Adam's private jet so no need to worry about missing the flight. I take my American Tourister trolley bag and my Chanel Handbag which contained all my essentials and clothing etc for the two weeks and descend downstairs.
As I reach the living room I see Adam on his phone talking to someone in a business tone as usual, Alina and mama seems to be engrossed in a conversation and the two foodies Alex and Zaid stuffing their faces with food.
"There she is! The sleeping beauty finally decided to grace us with her presence." Says Zaid
"Whatever" I reply with an eye roll and take a seat on the couch next to Alina after hugging her and greeting the guys.
After having breakfast and saying our goodbyes to mama not to forget assuring her hundred times that we'll take a good care of ourselves and the guys we all leave for the Airport in Adam's car. Not in a mood to talk I just start staring outside the window which gives a view of the beautiful skyscrapers and the crowded streets. I start thinking about our engagement which went well Alhumdullilah. It's been a month already. Time really flies.
The elders decided we should go for a holiday for me and Adam to get to know each other well as we are halal now and the others came with us to enjoy and give us company and also me and Adam would've never agreed to this.
Flashback
I was woken up by my cousins who came the night before from Pennsylvania to attend the ceremony. I got freshened up and had breakfast with my family and spent the rest of the day in chatter and laughter with the girls.
Three hours prior to the engagement Zaid drop me, Amira and Maya at the saloon where they do my make up and hair which wasn't necessary as they had to do my hijab after that but I still loved the hairstyle.
Before wearing the hijab I wore my dress that we brought with us. It was a traditional Pakistani dress, I never like wearing long and heavy dresses but then the mothers chose this dress for me so I had to wear it.
