"Finally, done and dusted" Yusrah sighed as we came out of the exam Hall

"Done and dusted for today" I said to her as we walked to the cafeteria. We grabbed a table and sat down, as Yusrah placed for an order and I glanced at two men who dressed abnormally for just "lunch" but shrugged it off and went back to my phone. Minutes later, our food came and we began eating just as Intisaar and Juwairiyya loudly dragged a chair each and settled in.

"Couldn't you guys do that quietly" Yusrah glared as Juwairiyya shrugged and Intisaar instead grabbed a chip

"Bad manners" I scolded smacking her hands and she stuck her tongue at me.

Matured Inti!

"Soo ahmmm Humaira" Intisaar said sounding serious as I glance up at her

"Yeah?

"There's something I need to tell you" She said looking between Yusrah and Juwairiyya and then back at me

"What do you guys know that I don't" I said narrowing my gaze

" I really wanted telling you earlier but you went through--

"Just say it" I said waving my hand

"Soo I'm getting engaged this weekend"

"Wait what? I said looking at her "Engaged, and I don't even know, who's he, why didn't you tell me you were seeing someone" I shouted glaring at them all

"Calm down Maimai, it's not like we weren't going to tell you" Juwairiyya said but quickly clamped her mouth shut when she saw the look I was giving her

"Explain" I said looking at Intisaar

"Daddy insisted I bring someone and I have literally, no one. You know we all aren't into dating stuffs, so he understood and said his friend's son will come over, we should to get to know each other and see if it's worth it. So he came, and on that day we spent talking and knowing each other. He collected my digits and we started talking slowly, as friends. When I saw that it was going fine, I told Daddy and now they will come over for the engagement (Sa Rana) in the next five days on Saturday" Intisaar said looking at me

"Why didn't you tell me all these? I asked her

"So many things were on you, I don't want to add mine to the list" She said looking down

"I feel like a horrible friend" I said fidgeting with my hands

"No you don't. You are the best there could ever be" She replied coming over to hug me as the rest joined in

"So how's he? I asked leaning back

"Ohh I will tell you everything but not here" She laughed as I nodded

"And you two, anyone? I said looking over to them as they look at each other

"Promise not to shout at us" Juwairiyya said

"I wouldn't" I replied laughing

"Yeah there is. Our fathers insisted on bringing someone too and we also literally have no one"

" Our no dating thing didn't do us justice" Juwairiyya laughed as I joined in

"Yes but it was worth it. At least we are sure this will lead to something good" I replied

"Mama said I have sworn to die in her husband's house as she has never seen me do a more than friendly call" Yusrah said shaking her head

"Mine said, I always friend zone them. I tried explaining to her, when you friend zone them, the one willing to go for halal love are the only ones who stays but she wouldn't get it" Intisaar said

"So who are your own lucky gems" I said winking at them

"Ohh that cliche line again" Yusrah said face palming herself

"We will tell you everything but not here. Maybe at Intisaar's place" Juwairiyya said

"We are going to Intisaar's place? I asked looking at her

"Of course duh! We are going on Friday, we have to get everything ready for their arrival on Saturday and then leave on Sunday"

"Well then I can't wait. I have missed out al ot on you guy's life within these months" I said

"Well, you are going to get it all" Juwairiyya replied pinching my cheeks

"Stop it" I said swatting her hands

"No"

"Yes"

"No"

"Yes"

"No"

"Yes"

"No"

"Yes""

"No"

"Yes"

"GIRLS" Intisaar shouted as]nd we all kept shut.

"I wonder how the poor guy didn't run when he first talked to Inti because girl you are literally mad" Yusrah said as we walked to the parking lot

"Whatever"

"Oh my God. Did you perhaps behave yourself? Yusrah asked looking at her wide eyed

"Of course I did" She replied rolling her eyes and unlocking the car

"What happened to "I'm not changing myself for anyone" Juwairiyya said standing at akimbo

"This is first impression juju" Inti replied while I went into the passenger seat next to Inti

"Still! You're mad, you are supposed to show him that" Yusrah added sending her a glare as I shake my head

"No I'm not mad. I'm only mad around you guys, and I didn't lie about anything concerning me Soo..."

"I just hope he handles your craziness Inti. After all, nobody gets a perfect wife like me" Juwairiyya said entering the car as we all exclaimed

"Pfffttttt"

"Ohh please"

"Perfect my foot and butt!

"You all are just jealous. It's okay, I can take that as a compliment" Juwairiyya said munching on her Pringles

"Juju, nobody is as mad as you are" Yusrah reminded her while I dialled Zahra's number

"Hey, Rahrah" I said when she picked

"Yes Maimai, are you on your way? She asked

"Yes. Are you back home?

"Yes I am, minutes back.

"Okay I'm on my way"

"Okay then. Be safe"

"Sure"

I hung up and gazed at the mirror then noticed a black Prado behind us us. Strange, this car parked right beside us at school. Is he perhaps following us?

Ohh please, that will be so ridiculous. My inner self muttered as I quickly agreed keeping an eye on the car. It turned every turn and stopped at every stop we made. I looked intensively at the people in the car and recognised the person on the passenger seat as one of the men I saw at the cafeteria.

Ohh goodness! They really are following us

This is not good!
