When they reached the shopping mall, Ahmed walked ahead of Aira and Ayeza, chatting and enjoying their time together like best friends. Aira smiled as she watched them, appreciating how much Ahmed cared about her family. As they were walking, Ahmed suddenly stopped at a baby shop.
Ayeza looked at him and teased, "Why are we here, Ahmed? Do you want to buy something for your future baby already?" Aira's cheeks burned at Ayeza's statement, and Ahmed, noticing her shyness, smiled and replied, "Noona, we'll think about that when the time comes. Right now, we're here to shop for someone who's already on the way."
Ayeza was surprised and asked, "Ahmed, there's still plenty of time! Why the rush?"
Ahmed made a cute pout and said, "No, I want to buy something for your baby. It's my wish, please."
Touched, Aira made an "aww" face, seeing Ahmed's childlike behavior. Ahmed explained, "Noona, I don't have any sisters. I want to know what it feels like to be an uncle for my sister's baby."
Ayeza smiled warmly and said, "Aww, my brother, as you wish." They bought many clothes and toys for the newborn. After shopping for the baby, they moved on to find a dress for Ahmed.
Ayeza then said, "So now I'm taking a rest and sitting here, given my condition, and because your wife-to-be will choose the dress for you. So go ahead, I'll wait here."
Aira blushed and looked down. Ahmed teased, "Hmm, so my wife-to-be..." Aira looked at him, and he continued, "Let's go, noona is waiting."
Aira looked at Ayeza, who gave her an assuring smile, and they entered the shop. As they walked, Aira's eyes fell on a beautiful sky blue three-piece outfit with silver pearls and intricate designs in the women's section. She stopped and exclaimed, "Beautiful!"
Ahmed noticed and asked, "Do you like it?"
Without realizing what she was saying, Aira replied, "Yes, this is so beautiful."
"Do you want it?" Ahmed asked.
Her thoughts snapped back to the present, and she quickly shook her head. "No, no, we are here to buy your dress. Let's go," she said, hurrying to the men's section.
Aira carefully chose a dress for Ahmed, trying to find something that matched her own Nikah dress. Ahmed, tired but amused by her meticulousness, watched as she deliberated over every option. Finally, they selected Ahmed's Nikah dress and exited the shop, where they found Ayeza sitting and eating snacks.
Ayeza looked at them with a frustrated expression. "You guys went to buy a dress, not make one. Why so late?"
Ahmed replied, "My wife-to-be was so particular about my dress, and now I understand that her taste is very selective."
Aira looked down in embarrassment as they both laughed. After doing some more shopping, Ahmed dropped Aira and Ayeza home at 9 PM.
As he waved goodbye to Aira and started his car, he couldn't get the image of the sky blue dress out of his mind. He drove back to the mall, went to the shop where Aira had admired the dress, and bought it for her.
Later that evening, after praying Esha, he placed the dress in a gift box, hoping it would make Aira happy. Feeling content, he went to sleep, looking forward to the new chapter in their lives.
When Ahmed reached home, he saw Ji-so drinking coffee in the garden. He was about to enter the house when Ji-so stopped him and asked, "Ahmed, where were you?"
He went and sat in the chair beside her, saying, "Mom, I went shopping for my wedding with Aira."
She raised her eyebrows and said, "As far as I know, in Islam, it's not allowed for men and women to go shopping or anywhere together before the Nikah."
