Have your say

Zak finds the Islamic guide books that he’s been looking for to give to Sway. Khatija reckons he has already given Sway loads of his time but Zak sees it as doing a good deed. Kamal heads off to do Zenab’s gardening but Khatija thinks he’s up to something. Zak tells her to give him a break. Later, Khatija makes lunch for Zak who tells her that he’s fasting, it’s a case of mind over matter and it helps him to focus. Khatija disagrees, he needs his strength during exam time.

Roopa is cramming in revision and Jas suggests she take the day off, she will burn herself out.
Krishan has made Roopa lunch and has even created a revision chart for her. Roopa feels a bit deflated when Krishan reckons revision is easy, she’s not convinced and heads back upstairs to go online onto the revision website that Bina has recommended.

At the Jilani’s house, Zenab is on the phone to Dr Masud, she would like him to see Imran. She is interrupted by Kamal who wants to discuss some ideas for her garden. He wants to make use of some old paving stones. Zenab trusts his judgement and shows him how to use the hose to wash them down with but accidentally sprays him. Kamal thinks it’s funny. Zenab is so embarrassed, she rushes off to get him a towel.

Kamal is enjoying being out in the fresh air and thanks Zenab for getting him away from Khatija. She hands over some money which he is reluctant to take. She wants him to spend it on himself but thinks he’s a very honourable man for sending money home.

Khatija feels for Mary, it must be hard for her to walk past the gym seeing the ‘for sale’ sign and she hopes someone trustworthy will take it on, it must have got too much for Pete. Mary gets annoyed with her, she has ordered extra magazines and she could do without wasted expenses. In fact, she may have to let her go. She’ll give her 4 weeks notice, she’s sorry but has no choice.
