"ok, if you guys do less chitchat and more dressing then we might make it in time " scolded sadiya.

"Hurry up".

"Gee, mum take it easy" maryam teased.

Sadiya rolled her eyes.

"Well , some one should help me with my zip " as soon as sadiya was done zipping my gown we notice the door knob twisting slowly , non of us budge.

We were waiting for the worse.

Aunt fanne enter, as i released the breath i didn't know i was holding.

"Indarubda" i greeted.

"Fine my child" she smiles.
She was exquisitely dressed.

"Why are you here " i asked skeptical.

She raised her brow, and i knew better.

"What i mean to say is , i thought you would be at the wushe-wushe" I smile nervously.

"Yes i will, but  i thought i should see my daughter in law first and give her my blessing".

I smile, she handed a gift to me, which maryam helped me get.

"And i wanted to tell you that my son won't make it to the party " she said sadly.

"Aunt, it's ok".

"I understand, he must be so engross in an important office work" i said in a mellow attitude.

"Yes child, thanks for understanding".

With that she left.

"And i thought i would get to judge him tonight, and be able to know if he deserves our falmata or not" Maryam sulk.

"Be thoughtful for once" i heard sadiya scold maryam.

"Oh , falmata " said sadiya pulling me into a comforting hug.

"Are you ok?" she asked.

"Yes"  i replied lightly.

"Am sorry he won't be here" said maryam.

"Nonsence, he did buy us some time to be with each other" I beam.

"Yes", smiles sadiya.

"I love you, two".

"We love you too" echoed maryam and sadiya.

"Group hug ", yelled maryam and we form one.

"If you guys are done hugging , the bridal car is waiting outside " said ya gana.

I winced towards her and held her tightly.

"I love you errand girl" i whispered.

She slightly hit me and whispered an " i love you too", in my ears.

I was so happy.
