The party began around 10 p.m., and everything was humming. The party was held at Zainab's house, and there were approximately 40 guests in attendance, the majority of whom were Zainab's classmates. The general atmosphere at the party was ———. Zainab had gone around with her parents to greet the guests before returning to her room to change into a different outfit. Khalid was waiting for her on her bed. He rose to kiss her. "You look stunning tonight, Zay." He said, pushed her up against the wall and kissed her more passionately for a few moments. She complained, “Khalid, I need to change right now. You're ruining my make-up."
A knock came on the door, and a voice said, "Zainab, are you done?" Do you require any assistance? Remember, your father and I need to leave soon?"
"NO. No, mom. "
