That night, Mother calls Zaina and Aunt Eeive over for dinner.
Tonight, I'll ask her everything, I think,
tonight, I'll open my heart.My skin h u m s with nervous energy
as Suki and I set the table.The dining room smells like fresh samosas
and the smell of fresh rain is wafting in from the open window,
it's home in the best of ways.RING~
I rush to the door
and swing it open to let in our guests.A loud chorus of voices rush in,
"Assalamu alaikum Harmony!
Are you okay?"Aunt Eevie hugs me,
then I feel Zaina hugging me from behind,
I'm surrounded in concerned family members and friendsand my heart settles for a moment,
"Yes, thank you.
I'm okay now."
