body? I just kept silent for her; anyone who sees us now would wonder because of the change we got, especially in eating and clothing; neighborhood kids just gossip about us; everyone with what they say; some even say I steal from the king's house; already our bodies' appearance is changing with good food and soaps that fix the body.

The next day we prepared to go to the name house of Uncle Mande; there we saw pain and sorrow clearly; no one noticed. At home after we returned, Inna is telling me that now men are following me; I smiled bitterly. Instead of 2 days, they did 4 days then returned; by then the house was full of service; all workers gathered; no change; we meet only one ahead until Maghrib we go; we're not there; they're frying fries; rumors he arrived with his battalion of friends including his brothers; I hear they're looking for me; I hid behind a large chicken pot; me and Amira came out to leave; I saw him standing throwing eyes; I know he's looking for me so I hid a bit. In 4 days he added beauty and size; we passed; he didn't see us. Amira said to me, "Will you go to the party?" I said God protect me. Amira pursed her lips; I won't go either. I said why? She said I'm avoiding insult and humiliation; you know the princess's character especially if she sees people; I just smiled; at their house door we greeted; as I enter home I found Inna standing in the courtyard; even greeting she didn't answer; she said where did you go? His coming 4 looking for you; he said everywhere in the king's house searched, you weren't seen? I just laughed; oh Inna if you knew the size of the king's house you wouldn't say that; we were there in some part just frying chicken. I handed her a black envelope containing the fried chickens given to us; I said Inna we were working and he's there with his friends. She just kept silent and took out the meat from the envelope; I took a thigh eating; Maghrib prayer call started; I quickly finished eating and stood to pray. I mixed golden milk drinking when I heard greeting in the courtyard; Aisha peeked; I heard her saying come brother welcome. My front fell; Inna looked at me; I quickly stood because I know the meaning of the look; even if he sees me he'll back off; house door he stopped where we usually do. He said are you angry with me Humaira? I kept silent; be patient swear home I returned to complete some things and my mom agreed; I came to fulfill our promise. Before that I want you to prepare; I'll send to pick you up or come myself; we'll go to the party even if you won't attend? Truly I won't go, why? Just like that, swear impossible; everyone with sense has no thing without reason. He said fine bring me mat; I won't go either; I looked at him in wonder; he smiled swear if you won't I won't; they forced me. I don't know what to do with his constant troubles with the one he'll come with; I said let's go ask Inna, with wonder Inna said come back well; we came out; he said wear that red lace with silver shoes you hear? I nodded, I'll go and come back later I said okay. I alone am searching in the room; Inna is in the courtyard; I'm doing makeup even on eyebrows; I sprayed perfumes; I came out courtyard; Inna looked at me eyes aside smiling what makeup like this Humaira perhaps you haven't exceeded bounds? I smiled, I said. " Inna don't I look beautiful? " " You look beautiful, but like too much".I
