How Iqraam's parents and Malika's parents would be addressed by Iqraam and Malika would change in the following chapters

Thank you, I love you}
*********
Iqraam's POV
" Iqraam" my mom called me breaking my trail of thoughts
" Yes mom" I said and walked over to her
" We're going to the mall tomorrow and you and Malika are coming with us" my mom said informing me
"Okay mom, I'll clear my schedule " I said and she nodded
"That's good son" my mother in-law said with a smile and I smiled back
" Mom, mother, excuse me " Malika said and stood up
"We'll be right back" she added and pulled me by my sleeve taking me along with her
"Take your time" I heard my mom say from behind us
Malika pulled me outside all the way to the garden and I went along letting her take me wherever
" Iqraam" Malika called when we were seated in the garden
"Yes Habibty" I answered with a smile
" Thank you" Malika said
" For what?" I asked
" For making Abdullah agree to this" she replied
" I didn't do anything we just talked and he agreed" I said with a smile
" What did you say to him?" Malika asked
" That's a secret" I replied with a mysterious smile
" Now I certainly want to know" Malika said and I chuckled
" Not today" I said and she pouted
" Stop it" I said without thinking
She looked so cute when pouting
"Stop what?"Malika asked and I was certain she doesn't know how dangerously cute she looks
Some movement in the flower beds alerted us, I looked at the source of sound and a cat jumped out
It was sky, Malika's pet cat
" Sky, come here" Malika said and as if understanding, sky walked over to her
" My little KitKat, how are you" Malika asked sky and picked her up in her arms
Sky meowed as if answering her
Malika rubbed sky's head and she purred
" Take her" Malika said turning to face me
" Okay" I said taking sky from her
I held sky in my arms and we talked some more before making our way back into the house for lunch when we were called

Malika's POV
"Get up sleepy head" I heard someone say while patting my cheeks and instantly knew it was Fatima, only Fatima likes to pat my cheeks
I called Fatima after lunch yesterday and she came over after hearing the news
She was very happy for me and even had this 'talk' with Iqraam
" Can I sleep more?" I asked without opening my eyes
