She's beautiful, she's every man's dream, she's educated, Religious, she seems strong but you've got it all wrong. She's surrounded by people she thinks are her friends but the truth is she only has one true friend whom she can open up to. Her love...
I woke up because of the continuous knock on the door that was starting to get frustrating and believe me I am NOT a morning person.
I groaned and got up from the bed. I looked back and I met with Amani sleeping peacefully. I opened the door and there was Nal with a toothy grin it's obvious she saw the frustration on my face so her smile slowly faded away.
May I help you? I asked with a very sleepy voice. Mama said you guys should come down for breakfast in 20 minutes she said.
Fine I said and she left. I closed the door and rested my head on the wall and groaned. Well your obviously not a morning person I heard Amani say in a very low voice.
I looked at her and I met a half awake Amani with her hair rough and I couldn't help but chuckle and she pouted and right there my heart skipped a beat.
I know I look hideous she said and took the duvet off her. She sat by the edge of the bed and stood up. Her eyes where still closed as she fell back right in the bed. Whoa head rush! Stood up too fast she said and I chuckled.
She stood up and started walking towards the closet. You don't have to make it obvious by staring you know she said and walked past me to the closet.
Well I can't help but stare shes very beautiful Masha Allah . Yesterday night I could swear I felt something between us. There was just this connection.
Nal already woke me up I can't go back to sleep now I thought and I groaned as I fell right back in the bed.
She came out of the closet after a while wearing a pink and green atampa and it hugs her body perfectly.

You know I don't stare but damn this girls got me drooling all over her I thought and finally with every power in me I looked away.
She was by the mirror fixing her hair oh that long beautifully soft hair. She started tieing her vail on her head and I headed to the bathroom and took a hot bath. I headed out and I decided to wear a brown shirt with black trousers let's face it I ain't going anywhere.
I hardly wear kaftan only if necessary. I came out of the closet and I met the bed arranged with Amani sitting facing the window and using her phone.
Shall we I said and broke the silence. Sure she said and kept her phone on the bed. I should get a vail she said and started walking to the closet. Hay no it's ohk it's just breakfast I said.
I know but there are still people around the house and I mean a lot she said and I chuckled. Don't worry about it and it's high neck so your good I said and she nodded Ohk. We headed out and we walked to the main living room.
Hey! Your zip I started saying and she stoped before we got to the living room. Oh she said and tried to reach it. Here let me I said and she turned I zipped her up and she didn't make attempt to open the door.
She looked at me and i gestured for her to open the door. Oh no you don't expect me to be the first person to go out do you she said and stood behind me. Why not I said and chuckled.
It's not my house she said and I couldn't help my laughter. You know just yesterday you didn't want to smile but now your laughing she said with a raised eyebrow.
Which do you prefer the smile or the frown I asked. I like you like this better so if you don't mind please do open the door she said with a smile.
I opened the door and we got into the main house. All eyes where on us as we made our way to the dining Oh my Good God I heard her say. We saw lots of my auntys so there was lots of stopping to greet.
We came across Aunty Hamida damn I hate that woman. Ina kwana (Goodmorning)we both said at the same time and squatted. Lafiya kalau sannun ku she said. Ba gale ne?(dont you have a vail) she asked Amani and we both looked at each other and she gave me the "I told you so" look.
Aunty Ana jiran mu I said and took her hand in mine and we walked to the dining. I told you she said and pinched my hand I had to release her. Ouch I said and looked at the place. Hay!..... I started but she interrupted me.
No no don't talk to me she said and opens the door to the dining and got in. I couldn't help it I had to smile. I hate when people interrupt but this girl here she left me speechless.
I got into the dining hoping the smile would leave my face because non of my family members have seen me smile this wide to the extent my dimples are showing.
Everyone was here including dad. Nal ofcourse was arguing with Salim dad is reading his morning paper and mama is talking with Amani. Mama looked at me and she saw that I wasn't angry or with a straight face.
She said something to Amani and I could see she's trying sooo hard to hide the blush. Ahh mama I thought and sat beside Amani.
Morning all I said and they all looked at me. Hm your being weird Salim said confused. What do you mean I said and mum chuckled.
You don't look like you want to kill someone dad said and I heard Amani chuckle. I looked at her and she did the mouth zip thing and I chuckled.
See right there Nal said and we All chuckled. So are you all saying I don't smile I asked and they all kept quiet. Yes you don't dad said breaking the silence. Seriously baba I said and he smiled.
I'm just saying only your mum knows how to make you smile he said. Well that's true I said. But now it seems like even Amani can make you smile that's good he said and looked at Amani.
I dropped the subject because they could go on and on with this. She served me pancakes with syrup Ouu my favorite. I ate to my heart extent.
Baba left immediately because he said the house is way too crowded. Amani and Nal started clearing the table and I made my way to sit beside my one and only mamana in the mini living room
She makes you smile was the first thing she said and I looked at her. Mama not you too I started and she chuckled
No I'm serious Areef even you know it. Asiya didn't make you smile this much in just a day she said and I looked at her.
Mama don't get any ideas I said and she chuckled. Come on just give it a try Areef please she said trying to bribe me with her eyes.
I will make it work mama and if she succeeds in making me fall for her then your dreams will come true finally I've found love I said and she chuckled.
I know your Afraid of falling for someone. it's not that you don't want to you've been hurt really bad so you don't want to get hurt again but I have hope in Amani and she seems like a very nice girl she said.
Ohk mama I said and all this while I was lying in her lap don't get me wrong I'm a mamas boy. Now get off me before she finds out your a mamas boy she said and I chuckled
I got up and sat beside her and we kept on talking about God knows what.
Let's face it I love my mum I really do. She's my advisor, my best friend, my gisting partner, my counselor and she knows best for me.
