The next day marks exactly Twelve days to the wedding and the two couples are having their Pre wedding pictures today even though Amira has stated she is not comfortable with it But getting being a daughter to one of the richest family has it's disadvantages

Her and Ihsan's Makeup were done and since they will be snapping the pictures in a different location, Their Designers are following them so that they can change outfits after every Four picture.

"They are here, Let's go" Yasmin who came to Abuja today Stated going outside Along with Amira.

The drive to the house was agonizing as Tahir kept on talking while Amira who was nervous kept rubbing her hands together. The rest are driving in the other cars and only her and Tahir were in his car and so is Mubarak and Ihsan.

They arrived shortly after some minutes and went inside to meet the photography Team and exchanged pleasantries with them.

"You should sit beside her while She stands" The lead photographer said As his team decorated the Background with roses.

"Amira Don't forget,Smile" Yasmin said before She goes to where they will take the pictures.

The both pose according to The photographer with Tahir Sitting down while She stands beside him, Her hand in his.

They both had a Smile on such that if someone sees them,He  or she will think they are deeply in love and their Marriage was not arranged.

"Tilt your head towards him please Miss Danbatta" Amira looked up, Her eyes fixed on Tahir's as the photographer and his team did their job before their pre wedding photo session finally came to an end.

"So I am going over to Ihsan's house, Sa'a is waiting for me there" Yasmin said when they reached the car "Tahir you're taking her home right?"

Tahir ducked his head "Actually I wanted to take her out" Yasmin winked at Amira who glared at her before she left and Amira entered the front seat of His car.

Where are we going to Ehrm"She asked not calling him his name as she has no idea what to refer him as.

"Sabr (Patience)Amira"He replied "That's for me to know and for you to find out and please drop the formalities,The name is Tahir".

He parked in front of a restaurant before they both came down and he held Amira's hands in his and walked inside where they were shown the table reserved by him earlier on.

"How is your Mum?" Amira asked as they ate talking here and there.

"She's preparing for the wedding but she's fine Alhamdullilah, Getting two sons married is not easy I guess"

"Thanks for the Lunch" Amira Said As he parked in their House hesitating to call him with his name.

"What did I say about the formality"He said and he came down so that he will greet her parents.

They both entered the Parlour with a salaam and Amira went upstairs to tell Umma about his arrival while Tahir stays in the Parlour.

"You have come back already" Said Umma as she exchanged pleasantries with him and talked with him for a few minutes before Zarah and Khalid Came down to greet him.

"Kuna hutu ko (You are on holidays right)" Tahir asked as Zarah accompanied him to the Garden where Amira was sitted on the swing engrossed on her phone after she left him talking with Umma.

"Yes, We're resuming a week after your wedding" She said leaving him with Amira to give them privacy.

"Hey" Tahir leaned against the Swing "I will be leaving So I guess See you on our wedding day it is" Amira chuckled before she stood up and accompanied him to his car and went back inside to the comfort of her room and continued her chat with Sha'ir.

Unbothered : He was an asshole hence we broke up...It's your turn now.

They were talking about their past relationships with each other as Online insisted on hearing about her ex boyfriend.

Sha'ir: He's going to be sorry he lost you so stop worrying about the past and remember how incredible of a person you are.

Unbothered : Do you know something special I love about you? You can move mountains with your words. You still didn't tell me about your ex...

Sha'ir: I loved her enough to let her go because her happiness lies in her parent's own and they had someone in Mind for her. Sometimes I don't know what haunts me more...the memories of her or the person I was when she was with me but then I had to accept she was a temporary happiness that left like a season.

Unbothered : Wow, I am out of words.

Sha'ir: How was your day?

Unbothered : Stressful But Amazing...Yours?

Sha'ir: One word: HECTIC! I just want to quit working and move to the countryside where I can just be a badass Writer but then when I think of all the Faces in the hospital, It cheers me up.

Unbothered : How does it feel like to be a doctor?

Sha'ir: It feels freaking scary. Sure the life of patients was in my hands, somehow, before and I had a decent education in the basics of my job but it's a huge difference if you're the one trusted with making decisions and fully, totally responsible for the outcomes. There was a time I felt like giving up after I was close to losing the patient but mercifully after a sixteen hour shift, We managed to save and when her family members looked at me in the eyes with tears saying prayers for me, despite being drained at that moment, I have never felt more in love with my job and I am proud of it.

Unbothered : That's Amazing...I can't wait to get this feeling.

Sha'ir: When you have just become a doctor, It feels like being on top of the world, One year later is about 25% less and it gradually keeps dropping but you have to stay strong.

Unbothered : Woah, anywheres Bye. I have a long day ahead tomorrow.

Sha'ir: Goodnight Baby

Unbothered : Flirting will take you no where, Byeeee!

She connected her phone to the charger and kept it on her bedside drawer before going to sleep after saying her Dua's.

********

"Alhamdullilah" Amira sighed dragging herself inside the house "Get me a bottle of water please" She said to Zarah whom she met on the staircase.

She wrote her last paper today and is done with exams. Being stressed from the wedding preparations which events will start the next day, She immediately slept off after Zarah brought her the water.

Her sleep was short as Noises filled the entire household and she woke up going downstairs to see the her cousins conversing in the main parlor.

Chorus of Our Amarya went around as she hugged her Nabeela and fist bumped the male ones before she sat down amongst them and they continued the conversation.

Amira's phone which Nabeela has collected to save her streaks with since her Phone's battery had died, Rang and she handed it over to Amira.

"Hello" His Voice came through and Amira sat up trying not to smile noticing all of her cousin's eyes were on her as she spoke up.

"Hey..."

She kept quiet as the other line was silent "Sorry, Mubarak was disturbing me" He explained referring to his brother who is Ihsan's fiancé "How are the wedding preparations?"

"Fine Alhamdullilah, Yours?"

"Well there's nothing much to do here. I heard Mummy talking about your events starting tomorrow"

She chuckled as Najib acted out how she was behaving and she stood up excusing herself and went to the dining room.

"My cousins won't allow me to talk in Peace" Amira mentioned as he asked whether she's still on the line "There's nothing much tomorrow. We're just having our bridal shower" They talked for some more time before she said bye and ended the call.

She was all shades of red as her cousins kept reading he before they stood up saying they have to go to Ihsan's place too. Waving them good bye, She went back inside to the parlor and sat down watching a serial when her phone notification went off and she immediately went on instagram.

Sha'ir: Oh Hello! Did you die or perhaps got kidnapped? I am bored

Sha'ir: Unbothered!Where are you Baby?

Sha'ir: You got a boyfriend and ditched me,I am heartbroken Darling.

Sha'ir: It's okay, I will just get another beautiful girl to marry me.

Unbothered : Oh wow Mr! I thought I was your "Baby".

Sha'ir: Finally you're back from the land of the death, I missed you.

Unbothered : oh please, Go and woo Someone else. Flirting doesn't work here.

Sha'ir: You just broke a heart pretty lady...

Unbothered : You don't even know how I look like, How sure are you I'm pretty.

Sha'ir: You will always be in my heart, Embedded like a precious stone whose love will never leave my soul. With each breath I take, It will utter your name and only yours.

I will paint my dreams with my imaginations of you And think about you every second of my day, No matter how far we are from each other.

She was left speechless as she read his message over and over again and realized she was crying when she felt her cheeks getting wet by her tears.

She was planning on telling him about her marriage to Tahir but she didn't have the courage to break her heart further on.

She knows she likes Tahir but only as a friend and nothing else but with Online, everything is different starting from How he makes her feel with his words to how he cheers her up. It's just naturally calming and amazing.

Contemplating on whether to respond to him or not, She decided to do so Seeing it's rude to leave him on R.

Unbothered : Flattery won't take you anywhere*Eyeroll*

Sha'ir: I am not flattering you, I am telling you the truth. My relationship with you is bizarre and weird but True love knows no bond or limit.

Unbothered : What do you call this? This wanted feeling Which yet feels unwanted, What do you call it ?

Sha'ir: It doesn't require a name Because it will spoil the beautiful relationship between the two. It's neither friendship nor Likeness, It's a feeling that is not yet named But special just the way it is.

Unbothered : I am neither good with words like a poet nor can I paint your life with colors like a painter but I do know I love you with every fibre of my body and every spark of my soul.

Sha'ir: Can I Tell you something?

Unbothered : I am all ears.

Online: I love you and Yes I know I don't know you personally but I know the real you even if I have not met you.

Amira could not respond to him as her phone was taken by Umma who was glaring at her.

"What kind of bride are you? Get up, it's time for your skin routine" Amira whines standing up to go and bath before getting ready for the Gyaran Jiki Which she hates But loves the outcome every time.

"When will this torture end" She Sighed as Hajiya Jidde, The Lady doing her Gyaran jiki scrubbed her hands and legs "I am supposed to be treated well"

Hajiya Jidde chuckled as she rencountered different tales of brides during their Gyaran jiki Procedure to her as she continued.

Finishing, She added her perfumes and oil to the water in the bathtub and instructed Amira to stay in it for At least thirty minutes before coming out and took her leave.

Amira loves the Lavender smell of the water and how soft and glossy her skin is and ended up staying for more than an hour in the water before she came out and rubbed the mixture of Lotion that was given to her by Hajiya Jidde and got dressed in a free gown which is one of the few dresses she owned as all her old clothes has been given out for charity.

She said her missed prayers before going to meet Umma to collect back her phone which she took earlier and didn't give it back to her.
