This is maybe the first time that the sisters and I
gather in one place away from our homes. It sounds like fun? Yes it was lots of fun
actually.
When we are in our homes we are busy running our errands,
looking after our houses, kids, work, and our bunch of friends; however when we
are away, we don't have those responsibilities, or we may forget about them, so there
could be some dialogue that we will all exchange without having our personal
stuff come in between us, it's like a return to our time when we lived at parents
houses with a difference, all of us have wrinkles on the face that we try to
hide one way or the other. So last night
was a night to remember.
First we all went out for dinner with our future son in
law, he is son in law to all the sisters, as Maryam is considered their
daughter too, she has many mums this girl, how lucky is that. I think on her
wedding night all of us will be crying, not only me. I hope that cry will be a
soft sob, as otherwise it's going to be quite loud!! Funny.
It was a great
Iranian dinner, with Iranian music, and the night was right too, not too hot.
Choosing the restaurant took forever as all of us are smokers, so the fiancé
eventually found a place that has a smoking area near the swimming pool, that
was that. Then each one went her own way, I came home, one went to an outing
with the cousins, few went to a cafe to watch some demonstration that was
happening on the roads surrounding the cafe, took a funny video of the tyres
burning ceremony, which I cannot show you as they had music running in the car which made look like a desert trip, with bonfire.
Then when they all gathered, it was almost 12 am, so the
facials and the masks sessions started, and while doing that, I was watching
Glee on my laptop, Mum was watching some random guy giving a lecture on how to
be a better person in life, all the
others were sending BB broadcast or whatsapp messages, and talking about those
messages at the same time, also telling their life stories. One said that she
is divorced from her husband in Bahrain but if she goes to Iran she is not
divorced? So the legal side of my daughter jumped out saying that cannot
happen?? And then my other sister was saying that her mask material is getting
over so she will only put masks and do facial on two faces, the third one was looking for her
IPhone charger and saying that if she doesn't charge it her husband will be
upset as he may call her when he has a fight with their son, and the fourth one
is calling her son and telling him that due to the trouble on the road she will
sleep in Mum's place (I think she secretly wants to sleep in the same place
with us so they chatter the whole night), and the fifth one is having her face
cleaned by the sister in law who is doing it so thoroughly so she doesn't miss
a spot of foundation, by that time mum
went to sleep in her room, and half an hour of hearing all of this I decided to
follow suit, and since Mum's room was so cold, I went to the other room and tried
to go to sleep.
I think it was few minutes later that I could hear all of
them coming to the room and all chatting at the same time and answering each
other precisely, also worried that I may wake up! I can hear all of them giving
marital advice to my daughter, funny advices though, and all of them giggle at
the same time. The room was hot when I woke up in the morning on the sounds of
my sister's sleep talk, I eased my way out of the room so I don't wake them
up.
I will do this again, as my dreams last night were nice.
Okay girls prepare yourself, we are traveling again soon.
