Mehr was so lost in her thoughts to even notice that Afnaan and her squad members were talking about her birthday and gifts. They were teasing her but she'll just smile cos her mind wasn't there at all so Afnaan nudged her."Come with me," Afnaan ordered before walking out of the cafeteria to the long school hallway. In slow strides waiting for Mehr to catch up with her but Mehr was still walking slowly like something was holding her with every step she took."What's wrong chips?" she asked again but Mehr was just looking at the space behind Afnaan as if something will come out from the hallway."Tell me Mehr!" Afnaan said sternly and knowing Afnaan, when she call Mehr by her name, then things must be serious."Yes," she uttered stammering. She look so lost and that made Afnaan's heart arche."You can tell me what's wrong," Afnaan drag her to an empty class in the hallway. The hallway was

Finishing her third paper which was geography, Mehr hurriedly sauntered into Mallam Audu's car telling him to hurry up and take her home, which he did with just a nod. Something must be serious since Mehr herself was impatient, for she isn't someone who's impatient, but Kydah.They drove back silently to the Maliks' Mansion in silence, which was so unlike Mehr to Mallam Audu. But instead of him to talk or start a conversation, he kept quite. Sometimes, people don't want to be probed or disturbed in situations like this and Mehr will also be part of them.Parking inside the Mansion, Mehr picked her backpack and ran into the house, straight to their room, jot even telling Maa that she's back. Kydah was in the room when she rushed in, but she didn't say anything but look at her like she's a mad person. She was removing her socks and shoe in a hurry before jumping into the bathroom, Kydah could swore that she didn't say the du'a for entering toilet.Kydah knew what

The whole week was so exhausting to Mehr. She couldn't sit down for an hour, she'd be called from Maa or Kydah's friends and it was annoying her. She doesn't even have time to talk to Mashkur talk less of seeing him, which was more than annoying. Its not like she doesn't want to help, but its getting too much.So now, she locked the door to Paa's living room with Afnaan by her side. Mehr was talking to Mashkur for more than an hour, whilst Afnaan was bored out if her mind. She wants to do something fun but her best friend has other plans, so she doesn't have a choice that sitting their and check her social media accounts.Getting more and more bored after the next thirty minutes, she collect the phone from Mehr wanting to ask Mashkur t9 give them some time together also and Mehr just laughed at her."Ya Mashkur, your girlfriend's best friend needs her asap, so do me a favour and give us some time together," She grinned at Mehr, who scowled back."My girlf

The awaited day was finally here, well, none of them were happy about this day nor the knot that has already been tied a few minutes ago. Kydah hasn't stopped bawling her eyes out.Mehr was still heartbroken, that her best friend didn't forgive her and she's even at the wedding, they talked but not like they do before which was really eating up Mehr. She apologized countless of times but Afnaan will just brush it off or change the topic when there's someone next to them and when they're alone, shed stand up and leave.Kydah and her friends who only knew the truth, try to set them alone so that they could talk it out, but Afnaan is really proving them wrong. She can also be strong headed.Now, Afnaan, Mehr, Kydah and Maa were all sitting in Kydah's room getting dressed so that they can take her to her husband's house. Maa didn't know about the fight, hence she didn't say anything about it.Afnaan used crutches the first two days because of the

Mehr was beyond shattered when she heard that her Paa disapproved Mashkur. She cried her eyes and face to sleep. When she woke up, time for dinner, she felt like she was beaten black and blue.She walked to the dining table and her head was down through out the dinner even though her father tried to talk to her.She walk back to her room annoyed. Is that how her sister felt when her father arranged her marriage? That's bad even though its different.Maa knocked on her door but she didn't bother looking up or saying come in and Maa invited herself in."You need to stop crying and stop brooding. That will not change his mind," Maa scolded."But Maa, why won't he agree. He knew I was ready since I was the one who asked Mashkur to go to him. Why is Paa doing this?" She wailed."Shush baby," Maa hugged her to her bosom calming her down but all in vain. She only cried harder.
