Chapter 30

I don’t feel like moving ..

But I have to go to the saloon

Lana today my henna night

Il 7amdillah it’s just a small party at home

I got up

Took a quick shower

And went to the saloon

I just curled my hair because I wanted to look different for tomorrow

And I’ll put my own make up

Omw back home I called juju and asoom to come and help me with stuff

Asoom said that she’s coming

Juju said that she’ll come when she’s done with the saloon

I reached home and my mum told me that the henna lady will come at 8

So I have to be ready by 8

I went to check on the tables at the back yard

And everything was just amazing

I went to my room

And kept thinking

My life is going to change tomorrow

3ady a9ee7

Why do I have to be forced to this

A tear scaped my eyes but I wiped it off quickly

Asoom came and started helping me with the make up

I just had a mascara, eyeliner, bronzer, very light layer of gold eye shadow that doesn’t even shows, and a red lip stick

As soon as we were done it was 7

Juju barged into the room as usual and started wearing her clothe

And when she was done asoom started wearing her clothe

It was my turn to start wearing my clothe

I went to my dressing room

And got dressed up

I wore a green puffy skirt with some gold in it

I was an Indian fabric (ma3arf kaif ashra7)

And a gold stripless body 3ashan they’ll put henna all over my hand

And with my golden loubi

I got out of the dressing room

Me: what do you think?

Asoom: 7abait !!!

Juju: 6ab3an 7lw cause I chose it

They helped me wear my jewelleries

And then went down because people started coming

I stayed at my room

Looking around

My closet was empty..

I had a lot of bags around the room

I kept on thinking about how my life is going to change

When suddenly

My mum entered the room

She hugged me w grat 3alay

Then told me to follow her down

I took slow steps down the stairs

And then stood infront of the door

Waiting for my part of the song to come out

As the door opened I took slow steps to my kosha with a smile plastered on my face

I sat on my kosha and then the henna ladies started applying henna on my arms and legs

Of course after taking off my jewelries

They finished in what was about and hour

But it felt like centuries

When they were done

Food was served and people started eating …

When it was about 10:30 they announced that 5alid is coming

My henna was dry and the henna ladies cleaned my hands

Ladies got their abaya’s on

I stood up

He entered

W I was just looking at the floor

I haven’t seen him for what was about a month..

I was so shy

He came

Kissed my head

And stood right next to me

And we took pictures

Then sat

5alid (whispers): m7lwa

I just giggled ma 3raft sho agool

 People started leaving thanks god

My mum told me and 5alid to go eat inside

I was hungry bs once I saw the food shba3t

I haven’t been eating since one week

Mool ma asht’hy il akl

5alid started eating

5alid: batmen chy i6al3een il akl?

Me: mb yo3ana…

5alid: mb chana ‘93afty?

Me: ma3arf..

5alid: batakleen wla a2aklch?

Me: la ba3dain youm bayoo3 bakl don’t worry

He didn’t want to force me

So 5alany 3ala ra7ty

When 5alid was done with his food

He left

I went to my room and started crying

Ma3arf why

Bs knt wayd 5ayfa from tomorrow

I cried my eyes out for and hour

Then went and took a shower

Wore my pyjamas

And started roaming around the house

Il jaw kan 7lw so I went out side to sit beside the pool

And had my headset on

I was in my own world

When I felt I hand on my sholder

Me: bsmillah 7amood 5awaftny!!

Yes I forgot to tell you 7amood o5ooy came back 3ashan my wedding <3

7amood went to sleep and I was left alone

I tried sleeping but I just couldn’t

I was checking my bbm

And saw all the count downs for my wedding and the dp’s

And saw that asoom just changed her dp

So I started chatting with her

Me: ASOOOOM!!!

Asoom: bsmilllah laish wa3ya?

I called her and starting chatiing with her about tomorrow

We talked for hours…

And when it was 7 oclock asoom decided to sleep

And I was left alone again  ON MY WEDDING DAY !!!
