Tangled In A Love Triangle

Chapter one

"Yo farha!". "hmmmm....". "Farha! Wake up". ugh! Who could that be waking me up was the first thing I thought after being interrupted from my beauty sleep. I lazily turned around to check the time and I noticed it was just 7:56am and my alarm was set for 8am urgh!! Prepare to pay! I so hate it when that happens. I dragged myself out of my comfort zone just to hear my name being shouted from the lawn. I checked out the window and saw salim looking up at me angrily. "What?" I screamed and he frowned the more "you know you're supposed to be making breakfast right?". And that was when it dawned to me that Ummi and Abi are coming back from their friends daughters wedding today. I quickly showered,wore my favorite blue gown and headed downstairs to prepare breakfast before they arrived.
I started with making orange juice and keeping it in the fridge before I made variety of foods to welcome them. just when I'm done with setting the table, salim came in and picked a samosa. "eww go and at least wash your hands before touching the food" I said as I hit his hand with the spoon I was holding and he acted like he didn't feel a thing. I rolled my eyes and muttered "brothers" as he went ahead to pick a yam ball while he said "are just the best"
"Yeah right" just when I said this he put his hand to indicate that I should keep quiet.
Looking at him like he just grew a second head, I followed him to the parlor to find Ayyub, the brother of the bride my parents went for her wedding. he was bringing in some luggages. I stood there frozen looking at him while salim went forward to welcome him.
"Salamu alaikum bro long time, how is everyone at home and the wedding?" Salim asked and they did there normal handshake before he replied "waalaikumu salam everyone is great was the wedding was wonderful, where's farha?"
And that was my que to go and say Salam.
I shyly went forward and said Salam. He turned to look at me before he answered my Salam and added "farha you've grown bigger and more beautiful" I said "thanks" before I headed back to the kitchen my face as red as a tomato.
I bumped into something hard, I looked up to find salim looking at me with knowing eyes and opened his mouth to say something but decided against it. He just walked away and I ran to the kitchen, closed the door behind me and let out a sigh I never knew I was holding.
After getting my ability to think back I went back outside to welcome Ummi and Abi.
As I got to the parlor I heard more voices I peeked in to see Salim,Ayyub,Abi,Jamal and Ummi chatting about something. I shyly entered the parlor and greeted everyone,went ahead to hug Ummi and sat down beside her. after some minutes Abi got up to go to his room and salim lead Jamal and Ayyub to the rooms they will be staying while Ummi and I went to the dining room.
As we entered Ummi looked surprised "farha you made all this?" She asked and I just beamed with pride while she complimented on the food.
"you know the best way to a man is through his stomach".
That caught me off guard and I began to blush "Ummi that was so un called for" I said still blushing and she busted into a fit of laughter as if that wasn't enough everyone decided to come into the room at that moment. Abi looked at us questionably from laughing Ummi to blushing me looking for an explanation. "your daughter can't stand men " she said and narrated the story to them and they all started laughing everyone apart from Jamal who was typing away on his phone. when they were done laughing at me they finally decided to sit down to eat. when everyone was done eating I stood up and began to take the plates to the kitchen Ayyub also stood up and began to pack some plates "it's okay I can handle it" I said in as an attempt to stop him but that didn't work as he just waved me off at the kitchen I dropped the plates I was holding and went ahead to collect it from him and thanked him. He nodded his head and I turned and began to wash the dishes after sometime the silence was deafening so I decided to sing hold my hand by maher Zayn. "you have a nice voice Masha Allah" I heard a voice behind and turned to see Ayyub standing by the door I blushed and mumbled a thank you. "you really do blush a lot" he said and that made my face to get redder than it already was.
"you better get used to it because I'll be staying for almost a year"he said
Almost a year with him in the same house Ya Allah please help and guide me was all I could think of. After I was done with the dishes I go out for strolling to clear my head when I came back it was already time for Salah I made wudu and prayed and after that started reading on wattpad and as usual that ate up the rest of the day coz next thing I knew it was time was Maghreb then Isha and finally drifted to sleep.
