Assalamu Alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakaatuhu :)

FIRST PRAY. PRAY. PRAY. PRAY. PRAY. PRAY! (This reminder goes to me as well).

This was the second promised update that I was supposed to update a few days ago but our internet got cut off because of us moving to a new apartment and I finally got it back today. So yeah, enjoy <3 :) xD

Binyamin

"Yadirah, can you get me some water?" I asked Yadirah, as she passed by my room. She stopped by my door and narrowed her eyes at me.

"Sure." She replied, suspicious of something.

"Is something wrong?" I asked her.

"How come you're not telling me anything about your meeting with Saifullah?" She asked.

"What meeting?" I asked her.

"When we all met, you guys were talking the whole time, right?" She asked.

"Yeah, guy stuff." I replied, staring at my computer screen.

"Oh, please. You would talk about guy stuff for the full five hours we spent with them?" She asked. "Fine. Keep your mouth shut. I'll be back in a minute." She said, grunting as she left the room. I smiled. Yup. Guy stuff. When I went back to working, I realized something. I was too tired of working for three hours straight without a break. It was already eleven o'clock and I was tired. I waited for Yadirah to bring me the glass of water I asked for. When she came, she placed it right in front of me.

"There you go." She said, turning to leave.

"Jazak'Allahu Khayran." I said, taking a sip of my water after reading Bismillah.

"Wa iyyaki..." She replied, as she came in and sat down on my bed.

"How's Laiba doing?" I asked her.

"Laiba?" She asked. "She's doing good Alhamdullillah. I just talked to her today and it seems like she's.... Girl stuff." She finished off.

"Is she angry?" I asked her.

"At you? She's always been angry at you. She hates you, remember?" Ah, yes of course.

"I mean about the whole marriage talk thing." I replied.

"Oh... about that.... she's fine, I guess. Obviously it's not something she knew you were going to agree to, so it's fine. If you said yes, it may have actually made it easier for her to move on from..." She stopped, and shut her mouth.

"From what?" I asked.

Yadirah

Telling you about what Laiba was going through right now is not going to happen, Binyamin.

There were just some things boys shouldn't know about girls... and that's about the crush phases. Sure they have a gist about what us girls go through when we're crushing on a super cute guy for no reason. But, they don't know all of it.

For example, the hair loss we suffer after pulling our hair out questioning ourselves about why the guy is so frikin cute. Then there's the face us girls put on when we look completely normal with a pissed off look but inside we're suffering from the fact that staring at the guy the whole day is just not possible because only the first glance is halal.

Yup, that's right. Laiba was in love... with a guy named Tahsin. The way she described him was making her indeed pull out a lot of her hair. She kept denying it for quite some time, until... she broke.

Saifullah

I was sitting at the dining table, starting to work on some of my university work. It was a hassle. I only finished one semester in university, but it was hard. Probably because I chose something I didn't look into properly.
