After the convocation, wedding preparations has started and it's going on smoothly.

Jamal, mum called

Yes mum, replied Jamal

When are we meeting that person? Mum asked

Who? Questioned jamal

She?? Said mum

She?? Who?? Asked jamal trying not to be sarcastic

The girl that converted you, she finally spit out

Oh!! You mean Aliyah, I said

I don't know her name, she said shrugging

That's her name, I said

So, when am I or when are we meeting her? Asked mum

Very soon, I'm gonna invite her over for dinner since she's ghazala's friend. They gonna come together. I said

Gonna be expecting her soon, she said

I think you've seen her before, I said

Where? I don't think so, said mum

She and bro was the best graduating students at the convocation, I explained

SubhanAllah, that girl, Masha Allah, I don't know but she looks familiar, said ummi

Maybe, I replied

Make the meeting ASAP, commanded mum

As your lordship pleases, I said kissing her forehead

The second day

Aliyah's POV

Salam alaikum mum, I greeted my mum who was sitting on the sofa

Walaikum Salam Habibti, she replied

How're you today? I asked

Alhamdulillah baby and you, she asked

Same here mum, I replied

What's up? She asked

Erm, do you remember the guy I told you about? I asked her

Which one? Asked mum

Oh!!! You've forgotten so soon, I said forming an angry face

I'm sorry baby, you know mum has load of things to tend to, she said trying to pacify me

No problem, I said with a smile

So, which guy? She asked

The one I was told to tutor that I converted him and we became friends, I explained

Oh!! I remember, she said

Alhamdulillah, I replied

What happened? She asked

His family want to meet the person that converted their son. So, they are inviting me over for dinner at the house.

Huh, what's their family name again?

Baasim's family

Is it the billionaire baasim's?

Yes, the billionaire

Mrs Baasim is a friend and my customer

You know her

Yes, of course. She is the nicest being I've ever met. A billionaire who doesn't show off her wealth.
