When Taaliyah got home, she saw things she was bit expecting. "Umma what is going on?" She asked seeing all the guests at the house she did not see while leaving an hour and half back.
"Your father's family.." Nihala could not say anything properly and looked around.
"Come with me," Taaliyah said and took her over to their tiny store room. "Tell me now,"
"Your uncle and grand mother found an alliance for Nara, they guy is in some gcc country, he is returning back in two days so his family wanted to meet Nara before he flies,"
"What the hell?" Taaliyah was shocked.
"Your father agreed to your grand mother's words. He closed the bakery and has gone to the university to bring Nara back,"
"Umma, how could you allow this? This should not happen, Nara has her final exams, you know Uppa will not let her go once she returns home," Taaliyah said trying to put some light in her mother's head. "Did you not call and warn her?"
"I tried but.."
