Anniyah was not feeling very good as she wasn't praying the pain nagged at her. Her heart also felt a little low as her stepmum was on her case since yesterday decreasing anniyah's self-esteem. Anniyah took the dishes to the kitchen anniyah's stepmum said she'll wash them herself anniyah said no and anniyah's stepmum said to her I don't like people who talk in English and I'm going to tell your father in law she talks in English now. After that to anniyah's sister in law her stepmum was saying how anniyah should learn to do all work such as ironing because once her husband comes she'll have to iron his shalwar kameez and how she burns her own clothes sometimes. Anniyah kept her distance from her stepmum, she wished her own mum was still alive things would have been so much better. It would be eleven years at the end of this month since anniyah's precious mum passed away. Then today in front of her dad anniyah's stepmum asked her don't you feel like talking anniyah said only a little bit. Also anniyah went downstairs as she could hear her husband's voice on the phone to her dad, he didn't tell her he'd bought a horse and when she said she wanted it he said you can have it for five lakh rupees sure he must have just said it as a joke but it hurt her feelings. Then her stepmum said to her dad that you should have said to anniyah's husband why did he borrow money and buy the horse what if tomorrow God forbid a loss happens and I be so scared of debt. And from now on I'm going to do what I want anniyah's dad said do that she goes yeah like that time I wanted to buy a brush for a pound and you said not to, anniyah's dad said you're not going to let go of them matters are you she said no . Anniyah's dad said men have certain jobs and women have certain jobs anniyah's stepmum said what jobs do useless women like me have. There was a tense atmosphere thanks to anniyah's stepmum. Anniyah came up to her room to get away.
