                   Hanan's POV

The adhan calling for subh prayer could be heard which woke me from my deep and dreamless slumber, I blinked severally and stretched a little reaching for my bed side lamp I switched it on to a dim light. I sat upright stretching my body, then stepped down the bed and stood on my feet.

I walked ahead to the toilet, emptied my bladder and then performed wudu. once done, I walked out and spread the prayer mat wore my long khimar and before I got to start praying a slight knock on the door stopped me.

I walked to the door get my hands on the doorknob and turned it faintly then opened the door, hameed stood their in his silky milk jallabiya ready for the masjid "you're up already" he asked "yeah" I replied and he nodded "I'm up to the masjid then" and with that he left.

I walked back into the room, firmly stabling my feet on the spread mat, making sure that I'm directly facing the 'qibla' I set to pray, saying my 'takbiratul ihram' as I raised my hands to the side of my shoulder at the same time. I prayed two raka'at Salah, the raka'atal fajr (the two raka'at nawafil prayed at down).

They are said to be Sunnah from the prophet (p b u h) which he never missed. A Hadith was reported from Nana Aisha the wife of the prophet (RA), she said :

"I have never seen the messenger of Allah hastening as much in observing supererogatory as two raka'at before the (fard) of the dawn prayer".

ركعتا فجر خير من الدنيا وما فيها

" The two raka'ahs at dawn are better than the whole world and what it contains".

And it was also reported by her that the prophet said:

"(Supererogatory) raka'ahs at dawn: are dearest to me than the whole world"

And so, I have never missed them, as I would never miss the five daily prayers. once I said my salam I stayed seated for a while before performing subh, I prolonged my last sujud and make du'a to my heart content before ending the Salah. After, I then recited the supplications recommended after each Salah and then proceeded to reciting the holy Qur'an.

I stopped, only when the darkness of the sky started to disappear and the bright morning light started to replaced it, I ended my recitation and take away the Quran to a safe place, I removed my khimar and folded it together with the prayer mat then went out of the room.

I went directly down stairs to the kitchen and started tidying up, once done I proceeded to the parlor, the house wasn't that messy but I still swept and mopped everywhere including my room then relaxed for a bit. Hameed's room was now the only place left, I didn't know whether he's in there or not but I still went there after a while.

I slowly pushed the door ajar and peeked my face in, it was empty and that made me sigh out of relief and walked in, I briskly started making his bed, I swept the room mopped it washed his toilet and made sure everything was in place before I left to my own room

I stripped outta my cloths wrapped a towel around myself and went into the toilet, in less than thirty minutes I took my bathe disentangled the strands of my braid and exited the toilet

I went to the dressing mirror sat on the stool and started applying my lotion once done I lined my eyes with the khol applied a nude lip balm and small amount of powder then dressed in an Ankara sewed into a gown. I made my hair into a low bun and wrapped my head cover into ' Ture kaga tsiya' style once done I went back down stairs to make breakfast.

Amid making breakfast, I placed two tea cups on a tray, two tea spoons and the tea flask then turned to take them to the dining table. Hameed was standing by the door with his tall figure blocking the way, he has his arms folded against his broad chest and was leaning against the wall with his right leg wrapped around the other. He was now dressed casually in a black sweatpants and black T-shirt that has a round neck, the black color looks extremely cool on him he smiled a little and waved his hand " morning" he said with his usual manly voice, I returned the smile and greeted him back matching to him, he made way for me and when I walked passed him he followed suit " how was your night" he asked behind me as we reach the dining and I placed the tray on it "Alhamdulillah yours" I asked "same" he replied and we walked back together to the kitchen "what can I helped you with" he asked me "nothing I'm almost done" I smiled "I still want to help" he murmured "you don't have to" I said "but I want to" he argued and I chuckled "just seat Right here"I said patting my palm on the kitchen counter "and I would be done in a jiffy" I added "fine" he said and hopped on the counter, he didn't say anything after that just watched me making the breakfast gently from where he was, he kept rubbing his stomach from time to time as he watched me "what was that" I eyed him "I just can't wait to take a bit of that sandwich" he said and I just shook my head.

I took everything with the help of hameed to the dining after I was done, we settled on the chairs said our bismillah and dig into the food in silence.

Moment later we packed everything to the kitchen and Hameed helped me do the dishes, even though I told him to let me do my work we did every thing together as he refused to let me do it alone and when we were done we left to the parlor.
