Elope with me

Chapter four ~ the driver

                      {❤️}{❤️}{❤️}

At exactly 8:00pm that night my phone rang from an unknown number since I didn't save his number but I immediately recognized the number since it has about multiple 1 in it.

I didn't pick the first time but when it ring the second time I pick it immediately
Assalamu alaikum I said.

Amin waalaikis salam I thought the princess will not pick her drivers call.

Is not like that I wasn't close to the phone sorry about that.

No need to apologize so how are you he ask me.

Am fine how are you?

Am fine and thanks to you for that.

To me? I ask him.

Yes to you because since I left your school earlier I am totally not myself.......

Subhanallah what happened I said with a voice full of worry.

He laughed a little well you are the reason you have all mind capture with your image .

Hmm is all I said.

Zara'u am not a man who beat around the bush when I see something I like I go for it, earlier today I saw you entering the mall you captured my attention I thought it's s for just a moment I went there just to run an errand but because of you I stay there for more than an hour because I couldn't just left and he let out a small sigh I like you Zara'u and if Allah permitted I want to start something serious with you with your approval of course.

I was silent the whole time.
Zara'u he call my name again.

Na'am I answer silently.

Say something.

I don't know what to say.

Anything just anything but your silence scares me.

But I don't know what to say.

Then do you dislike me he ask.

No!

Then do you like me .

Noo I answer immediately.

No? He ask slowly.

I don't mean it to come out that way but this is the first time am seeing you and I wasn't expecting to hear this from you ..... I breathe out I mean I am not even ready for love this comes unexpected I don't know if you understand me.

This is not what I am hoping to hear but I understand you but I hope you will not shut me down let me put it this way I am begging you not to shut me down give me some time let's get to know each other and give me the chance to win you over.

Well I don't know if that's a good idea.

Please Zara'u I won't say let's us be friends because I can't risk you putting me on a friend zone but give me a chance to win your love even if it will take months but I will not disturb your studies we will only work on your terms just the way you want it to be.

The next Monday surprisingly Najwa didn't have to wake me up for our 7:00 🕖 lectures when she call I told her am near the lectures venue so when I arrived we chat with some of our course mate before lectures begins it's only after lectures that I get to talk to Najwa.

Juju I said hugging her.

Zara'u she said hugging me too.

Najwa am so hungry please let's go back to your place and make something to eat.

Ohh I thought you are not hungry she said pushing me away.

I take that back I said raising my hand up in surrender and she laughed should we take the bike or trek since it's only 20 minutes away from school.

Nup I can't walk beside am too angry to walk I may end up falling down the gutter let's take a bike I answer her back, when we finally get a bike and on our way to her apartment Najwa ask if what get me this angry.

It's my roommate I mean today after the morning prayers I check my fridge to see if the fresh verges that we got from the market is still there but guess what I said looking at her.
They took it?

Yes they took it again and when I ask them who use it none of them answer they are just taking me for granted if they ask me I will happily give it to them but taking it without my knowledge is what is getting me mad I wanted to use it today to cook for us but they end up spoiling my morning.

I told you to get them to stop but instead you are just been a chicken with them.

That's not true Najwa I just want us to be civilized with them, no I have change I said handling the transport fair to the bike man because we are already there thank you we proceed to her door when she open the door we enter I continue telling her how upset they have been making me these few days and am sure it's Talatu that took it she is the one that cook yesterday because when I come back from my namesy rooms after making my heir I found her already cooking.

Well what can I say to cheer up I still have a lot I can give you.
I only remain silent because there are so many things running through my mind , when she starts cooking I end up preparing the food for us because if there is one thing Najwa can't do properly is cooking.
After we eat and lay down checking our books the class rep just posted that afternoon class has been canceled so we just have to read.

So how are you and Sufyan doing Najwa ask me.

Fine.

Just fine?

Yes he call me yesterday and even sent me a good night message yesterday I said not bothered.

And what was your response she ask almost immediately and I laughed at her behavior, I didn't answer.

No way she said taking my phone and unlocking it she quickly went to my messages and read his message.
Oww he is so sweet she said hugging the phone and I just smiled in return and you dump head only reply with thanks and she throw the phone at me.

What was I supposed to said I said in between laughter.

Reply with something nice silly she said going back to lay on her back.

I don't know Najwa am still confused and just trying to figure out what I actually feel for him whether I like him or it's just physical attraction.

Do not over think this I mean I will give anything to be in love, love is a beautiful thing.

Love can be beautiful at the same time it comes with consequences 💁
