NAEEM.
Algiers, Algeria.
Abi told me Aman wants to see me again, so I told him I'd inform him of a comfortable day for me.
I tell Abi I'll be able to see Aman after jumm'ah on Friday, so he agrees to call her father to inform him of the day I'm going.
When Friday finally rolls by, I head to the masjid, and while walking down to Aamir's house, as it's not far from the mosque, I meet him on the way to their house.
"Assalamu Alaikum Akh," he says, tapping me on the back. "Waalaikumus salam, I didn't see you there for a second," I say as we continue walking down to their house.
"Baba, Ommi, we're home; Naeem is with me too," he yells as we enter the house. "Yallah, come sit; I'll go get Aman," he says, leading me to the sitting room where I meet Oncle and Aunty Khadijah having coffee.
"Assalamu Alaikum," I say as we enter the room. "Wa'alaikumus salam, come sit," Aunty Khadijah says, exiting the room, leaving me and Oncle Aaban.
"Your father tells me you got a new job; how is it going so far?" He asks, "So far, everything's been great, Alhamdulilah." I answer, "Mashaa Allah, may Allah bless you," and he prays just as I answer, "Ameen." Aamir walks in with Aman in tow.
"Assalamu Alaikum," she mutters, taking a seat opposite me. "Wa'alaikumus salam," I respond. "Don't go off topic," Aamir jokes, walking out with Oncle Aaban.
"How was your day?" I ask, "I didn't do much, but, Alhamdulilah, You?" She asks, "A bit stressful, but, Alhamdulilah, too. Abi said you wanted to see me again; is something wrong?" I ask.
Her eyes widen before she replies, "No, not really. I just wanted to ask you a few more questions so I can make a decision. I don't want to keep you waiting." she explains
"Yeah, that's good, and take as much time as you want; it's your life too," I assure her. She asks me more questions about myself, and we lasted twenty minutes discussing important things, to be exact. "I'll get going; I need to go back to the mosque to get Abi before we head home," I say, getting up.
"But before I go, I just want you to know that you shouldn't allow anything to cloud your judgement, and if you feel you don't want to get married to me anytime soon, do tell Oncle or Aamir; it's also your life, which means you also have a say in how you want to live it," I emphasize. "Insha'Allah," she smiles.
As I walk out of the sitting room, I meet up with Aamir just as he's coming down the stairs. "You're going?" He asks, "Yes, say goodbye to Oncle for me. I need to go get Abi from the mosque, I say, putting on my shoes.
"Before you leave, Aman made this for you; I'm sure she didn't tell you," he says, bringing out a plate filled with chocolate cake. I almost smile with my teeth, but I compose myself immediately. "Say thank you to her for me, please," I say, collecting the cake from him.
"Insha'Allah."

Two days later, Aamirs calls me just as I'm entering my car to leave the house for work to tell me she said "yes," as in yes to getting married to me. I almost didn't want to go to work anymore. I called Maryam and Abubakr to inform them of the good news once I arrived at work.
Alhamdulilah, ya Allah.
