Back Home...
After spending some wonderful time together in Bangalore, we came back to my native place. The trip was tiring but we two had a wonderful time with other 6 passengers who were with us. They had a beautiful kid with them.
As soon as we got back to Bhusawal, we were pleasantly surprised by the news that my younger brother Parvez had a proposal from a family in Aurangabad. While we were in Bangalore, my parents arranged everything, Parvez met her in Aurangabad and they both liked each other. The girls family were coming to our place to meet us all.
We would be seeing her for the first time. Everyone was busy with the preparations. In a week's time they were coming. At home, everyone was saying Fatima is lucky for us, as soon as she is here, Parvez is ready to be hitched. So the day arrived and the girl's family with their extended family (15+) in all came to our place. Mom made wonderful food. Fatee was there to help her. I made Chana Daal ka halwa :-D everyone liked it.
So the girl's parents liked Parvez and our family, we liked Rashida and her family. And guess what? They asked if it is alright to get them engaged. We all were pleasently surprised. In the end we agreed. So they got engaged.
May Allah keep them happy together. Ameen.
