Part 58- The Engagement-Part 1

It was 5:30pm and I was anxiously awaiting Aara’s arrival. I had been sitting downstairs with Sahal for the past half an hour and madam still wasn’t ready!

Me: the engagement starts at 6 Your Highness! (I shouted playfully)

Aara: (shouting back from her room) ok ok I just need to shower quickly

Me: what??? Aara are you crazy what were you doing for so long!

And I made my way upstairs to..to..I don’t know what yet…and as I was about to open my mouth..my mouth fell open on its own!

“WOW”…there were so many words I could have used to describe her but at this point in time even all those words put together would simply not have done justice to the wonderous sight infront of me!

“Shall we?”, she said as she tapped my chin with her finger and laughed to herself…..

Me: Why are you grinning at your phone?

Aara: naa nothing *small smile*

Me: what nothing? Ever since I fetched you, you’ve ben glued to your phone. What’s so interesting?

Aara: a conversation

Me: with who?

Aara: :-p none of your business

Me: oh its like that now huh

Aara: aha 🙂 so, where’s the hired car?

Me: haha changing the subject !very clever! The car has been returned-my dad long story.

Aara: and how was last night?

Me: I don’t know really. Initially it was extremely awkward but once my dad pulled me away to meet all his friends and cousins I actually started to enjoy myself! He was like somewhat showing me off…you would never have said its the same grumpy couldnt-care-less about me father

Aara: that’s a good thing right?

Me: come on Aara

Aara: whaaat…just giving them the benefit of the doubt..people change you know

Me: yeah yeah…and Aaliya! So sweet and caring! They’re such pretenders honestly… she’s so high and mighty but you should see her kids! Snot all over their faces, no shoes…I was so tempted to give them a few coins just to irk her! (Laughing)

Aara: Nemo!! That’s your neice and nephew!

Me: (still laughing) even better! And then Nuzayh’s son is the total opposite..he thinks he’s the Prince of Durban!!(Busting) like his parents he too has something stuck up his butt!

Aara: shame on you Nemo..the kids what..5-6 years old!

Me: you’re in for a surprise-this entire family are a bunch of wackjobs with multiple personalities and they’re so good at it you’ll think they’re having a competition with themselves! (Pulling in to the driveway in my dads SLK)

Aara: is this an engagement or a wedding? (Shocked at the massive white tent and the very large number of cars parked in their huge parking area)

Me: now smile and don’t leave me alone please:)

Aara: I should be telling you that! They don’t like me at all! Agh why did I ever agree to come with you!!!!

Me: because you love me (get the hint woman)

Aara: (busy typing) hmmm?

Me: what the….(Trying to snatch her phone) put it away man who’s so important?

Aara: stop whining weirdo…come now let’s knock em dead (winking)

Mystery Girl:

My eyes scanned the entire tent…no sign of Naeem. He was here not too long ago and it was already 6pm the engagement was due to start anytime now. Where could he be?

I knew there was a younger son..but I didn’t know it would turn out to be the infamous Naeem Moolla…aka Nemo…

And apart from the fortune he stood to inherit , he was absolutely gorgeous…and with a very interesting past…

I decided before I came here, that A.K Moolla’s younger son would be mine and now that its Nemo…would make it so much easier…given his weak points…

By hook or by crook this “fish” was going to be mine…No man yet has been able to deny me what I wanted….I already have his family eating out of the palm of my hand and its not like I didn’t notice how awkward he is around them. And I will use that to my advantage…”Poor little Naeem Moolla”, I said out aloud to myself as I spotted him entering the tent and I made my way towards him.
“Hi…” And before he even heard me and before I could complete my sentence..he held out his hand to a woman in a purple dress. Whoever she was, the photographers clearly loved them together and tapped Naeem on his shoulder asking for a picture…and then she turned and I felt my blood run cold.

What the hell was SHE doing here???
