Chapter 9

To the side is Aliyah's henna. Enjoy the chapter! :)

**Aliyha's P.O.V**

Hearing the alarm I get up, making my way to the bathroom. After I'm done I make my way downstairs and into the kitchen. Everyone is already eating and talking.

"Aliyha I was about to come up and wake you up," aunt Amina says.

"Yeah we are going to do your henna for the wedding tomorrow," Zaynab says excitedly.

WHAT THE WEEDING IS TOMORROW?!

Wow, this week went by fast.

"Yeah I knew that?" I say, sounding more like a question.

"Yeah! so hurry up and eat," Zaynab says with a big smile.

I hate doing henna, every time henna is on my hand I need to scratch my back or my leg or any other body part. I grab a bowl and pour myself some cereal.When I'm done eating I go up to my room and change, grabbing my phone and purse and heading downstairs.

Zaynab and Aunt Amina are waiting for me at the door. I make my way towards them and see mom watching TV. Of course she not coming, even though I don't want her to come with us.

**1hour later**

When we enter the house Adam has his face in his hands while his dad is on the phone talking to someone and his mom not there. It seems like Adam is crying. Adam's dad gets off the phone and looks at us.

"What happened?" Zaynab says with a worried look.

"....Ahmed...... g-got in a c-ar crash...he didn't m-make ..it," Adam said his voice cracking once and than

"Inna lillahi wa inna llayhi Raaji'oon,"I say surely we will all day one day

"He was coming back from work and a drunk guy crashed into him," His father said

"When is the funeral?" Zaynab ask in a low voice

Adam head snaps to her with anger but then calms his anger. Why is he angry at her

"U-um no dad has work and I can't go," he said

"Why can't you go?" Zaynab once again ask him

"I'm still in shock."

Adam gets up and goes upstairs. Poor guy. He just lost his best friend and is getting married to me tomorrow.I look at Zaynab tears in her eyes trying to hide it but can't.  I just stand there, not knowing what to do. I barely knew the guy so instead I pray for him.

**Morning**

"Aliyha wake up," I hear a voice and open my eyes to see aunt Amina shaking me awake.I get up and stretch with a yawn.

"We have about an hour to get you ready for your wedding," she says with a huge smile.

WEDDING!!! I forgot.

I make my way towards the bathroom and take shower. When I get out of the bathroom Zaynab is sitting on my bed with my wedding dress. She wearing a hot pink dress with her scarf.

"Mashallah you look beautiful," I say with a warm smile.

I wish I had my dad. If he was here, unlike my mom, my dad would have been comforting me before the wedding. I'm really nervous for tonight.

"Thank you, and come on we have 50 minutes now since it took you long to shower," she says.

"Well some people don't want to stink," I say sticking my tongue out.

"Sit down, I'll do your makeup," she says even though I never put it on.

After the makeup I put on my dress and we head downstairs.

"Mashallah you look so beautiful,"Aunt Amina compliments me.

Let's just get this over with.
**25 minutes later**

"I, Adam Saleh, take Aliyha yussuf as my wife," he says with smile on his face gazing at me.

"I, Aliyha yussuf, take Adam saleh as my husband," I say after him with a forced smile

We both sign the marriage contract and the imam declares us husband and wife. The guests cheer and Adam takes my hand and holds it tightly. I can't control the shiver that occurs due to his touch. After Adam's family and relatives come and congratulate us, we head to our limo.

I am finally married...

I'm hopefully not going to see mother more often.

But yet again I'll be stuck with him.
