Amina P.O.V

I woke up quite early today and called Zaeem.

"Salaam" he said.

"Salaam" I said.

"How are you?"

"Good, there's something I want to ask you"

"What is it?"

"When is the wedding and have you planned anything yet?"

"Er...no"

"Well we have to get together sometime to plan it"

"Alright...bye"

"Bye"

What was up with that guy he kept stuttering and it was like he was hiding something from me. Mumina got up and said "Salaam Amina, guess when  the wedding is"

"When is it?" I asked.

"July the 6th"

"Your lucky, Zaeem hasn't even planned anything at least write down ideas or even meet up to discuss but no he acts as if he's not even going to get married!" I said with thoughts in my head. Maybe it's not time for the wedding or I should have seconds thoughts. All these things were stuck inside my

"Amina calm down, just give him sometime to sort things out. These things take time and he maybe just wating for the right time to get married" said Mumina.

"I'll just go and lie down for a while" I said.

"Good idea" she said.
Mumina P.O.V

After Amina left the room I texted Zaeem

Me: Zaeem she's really angry at you

Zaeem: Really?

Me: Yes

Zaeem: I guess I should do the suprise today

Me: Today?

Zaeem: Yeah you try and get her to the Marylins Wedding dresses

Me: There?!?! Their dresses are expensive 560 dollars at least

Zaeem: Just bring her there around half 3

Me: KK

I went into her room and she was already asleep so I set her alarm for

3:00pm. It was now 11:00am. I decided to call Amira to find out what Usman thought of the cakes.

"Salaam alaykum Amira"

"Walaykum Salaam"

"What cake did he like?"

"The same one you do"

"Oh ok then you can cross out cake"

"Alright then bye"

"Bye". I guess we now have the wedding cake.

At 3:00pm Amina's alarm rang.

"Amina come on we have to go somewhere important"

"Why?"

"You'll see once we get there"

We got out the house and I took her to the shop.

"Mumina this shop is full of expensive stuff"

"Lets just look"

"fine"

Zaeem said he would be here so I told Amina to try on some dresses. Just then I spotted him but Amina didn't so I motioned him over. Whilst Amina was trying on a dress he came and sat on the chairs. I went inside and said "There's a suprise for you outside"

"Really"

"Yes go outside" We went outside then she saw Zaeem. "Him" she said.

"He's here to say something" I said.

"Salaam Amina. Do you like that dress?"

"Well I don't hate" said Amina.

"Ok then look for another dress and it's yours"

"Really!" she said.

"Yes!" Amina dragged me to go qnd check out other dresses. I was so jealous. Marylin is the best Wedding designer in all of Seattle and my big sister is getting one of them. She picked a dress with long silky sleeves and lace white.

"Done!" she said.

"Are you sure you want this one?" he asked.

"Sure, erm...Zaeem are you sure you can get this dress?" she asked.

"Don't worry about the money, I sorted that out". I just stood there like can you guys hurry up.

We ended up buying the dress, we went to a close coffeee shop to eat. Zaeem brought his laptop and showed her the flowers and everything he planned for the wedding.

"So you've been planning the wedding all along" she said.

"Exactly"

"I thought you didn't even care"

"Of course I care and I'm ready t fet maried" he said.

"Where is the Wedding?" she asked.

"I thought Miami" he said.

"Yeah but I already sorted out something for Mumina to get married there" she said.

"I got you a 650 dollar dress didn't I"

he said.

"Yes"

"Then I can take you Miami"

"Ok then" I just kept staring with Vanilla Hot chocolate in my left hand and in my hand Strawberry jam scone. I needed the toilet so I just said "I'll be right back"

"Ok" Said Amina.

"Let's talk about the date" said Zaeem.

"It shouldn't be June 6th because thats when Mumina is getting married" I said. At least I think so.

"What about the 6th of July?" he asked.

"Perfect!" I said. Then Mumina came out the bathroom.

"Zaeem are you coming to Mumina's play" I said.

"You're doing a play" he asked her.

"Yes titanic" she answered.

"My brother, Omar is in it" said Zaeem.

"Yeah I know him" said Mumina.

"I'm definetly coming" said Zaeem.

He dropped us home in his car. "Why does everyone suddenly have a car?" asked Mumina when we went back home. We were in bed watching a movie.

"I don't know? Isn't what he did sweet?" I asked.

"Yeah it was alright" She said.

"Are still watching this movie?" I asked.

"Yes" she said.

"Anyway goodnight" I said and with that I fell asleep.
