December 10, 2017

Ambitous sister trio, Mona Saeed a paediatrician, Zoona Saeed a gynaecologist and Amal Saeed a obstetrician and gynaecologist talk sisterhood. From their childhood antics, to the bond they share today, these sisters share it all



What’s your first memory of each other?

Mona: Zoona’s bob cut and party dresses and Amal’s quietness.

Zoona: Both my sisters sitting in front of the television on these massive cushions with Mona staring at the TV blankly with her swollen eyes and Amal frowning all the time.

Amal: I was about three, Mona four and Zoona nine. We got our new beds and all three of us were jumping on them with excitement. Zoona went a bit overboard and pushed me playfully. I accidentally hit the headboard. The next thing I knew there was blood everywhere and I was rushed to the hospital with a cut on my eyebrow and ended up with a few stitches!

What is the craziest thing you have done together?

Mona: I hacked an account only recently to join my sisters’ league.

Zoona: Me and Amal loved to spy on people most of the time. During one of our spying missions, Amal got stuck in the window since she was chubby and we were caught in a very difficult situation. Mona always played safe.

Amal: Zoona and I used to spy together a lot. Mona on the other hand was always telling us how morally corrupt we were and how God would punish us. I won’t go into the details in case someone realises it was us. But we had recording devices, trackers, used to hack emails, follow people around in cars and all this just to satisfy our curiosity! Lol!



What did you get punished for the most as a child?

Mona: I stammered during my pre-school years so maybe because of that I never got punished.

Zoona: Our parents were busy professionals and our grandmother used to look after us when they were at work. I would get punished as soon as she informed them that I hadn’t finished my homework on time.

Amal: Eating my sisters’ chocolates and ice creams after finishing mine. I used to say it was the maid, not something I’m proud of.

If you could only wear one piece of clothing for the rest of your life, from the others closet, what would it be?

Mona: Zoona’s military blue blazer and Amal’s knee length boots.

Zoona: Amal’s checkered ruffle top and Mona’s pearl earrings.

Amal: I would raid Zoona’s shoes and bags! Clothes she can keep.



If you could swap places with each other, what’s the first thing you would do?

Mona: As Zoona, I would enjoy being an all-rounder and an absolute favourite child. As Amal I would participate in an art competition and win it.

Zoona: Sleep endlessly like Mona irrespective of whatever is happening around me. Make a painting since Amal is a born artist.

Amal: With Zoona I would enjoy wearing size 0 jeans again, only a dream for me now. With Mona I would do whatever I wanted and still get the sympathy vote from everyone.

What is the one thing you love about your sibling?

Mona: Zoona’s strong desire to help others and Amal’s positive outlook on life.

Zoona: Hanging out with my sisters anywhere anytime!

Amal: Zoona’s selflessness and the way she goes out of her way for family. Mona is a perfectionist and I love that about her.

If you are fighting with each other, how do you make up?

Mona: I demand an apology as I genuinely believe that I am never at fault.

Zoona: If I am at fault, I apologise and try to start a conversation. If I am not at fault I wait for a formal apology.

Amal: With Zoona I normally have to formally apologise, there is no way around it. Mona on the other hand starts talking herself, making her one of the easiest people to fight and make up with.

What is the one secret talent your sibling has, that you wish you did too?

Mona: I wish I could multitask like my sisters.

Zoona: Mona always has a balanced opinion and Amal is a great listener.

Amal: Zoona’s selflessness and Mona is a very good judge of character.



Describe your sibling in three words:

Mona: Zoona - Strong, helpful and very kind. Amal - Multi talented, practical and  considerate.

Zoona: Mona - Strongheaded, perfectionist and trustworthy. Amal - Allrounder, brainy and creative.

Amal: Zoona - Headstrong, loving, sincere. Mona - Perfectionist, fiercely loyal and headstrong.

Which fictional character is your sibling most like?

Mona: A beautiful Disney princess or Sherlock Holmes.

Zoona: Mona - Olive Oyl, Amal - Sherlock Holmes.

Amal: Zoona - Mulan, Mona- Buttercup from Powerpuff girls.

How are your personalities similar?

Mona: All of us put our families first.

Zoona: We all love to try new eateries.

Amal: Zoona and I have a lot of similarities, Mona on the other hand is quite different. The only similarity in all three of us is that we have a low threshold for nonsense, diplomacy isn’t our virtue.

I can’t live without my siblings because…

Mona: I will be lost without them.

Zoona: They are always there for me.

Amal: They are my best friends.
