Match made in heaven

This chapter is going to be on Abdulhafiz and Billy's point of view .Hope you enjoy! dedicated to all of you my active and silent readers.Jazakumullah khair.
Abdulhafiz's POV
I was sitting on the couch watching a reality show when I heard the loud voices of Fatima,Siddy,Zahrah and Billy.Which indicates that they are back from their visit to Billy's house .It feels weird how I have missed them for three days especially her that thought brought a smile on my face.I wish she knows how special she is,how her laughter makes me happy beyond anyone's imagination,how her face glows like the moon and how she is simply amazing. I had a thing for her the first time I saw her before knowing her name and I am glad that looser left her.I won't shy away from what I like because it's high time for me to look for a partner that I will spend the rest of my life with in shaa Allah.And I think she's the one because she has captured my heart and locked it away.
I decided to tell her bro my besty of life.I dialled his number and he picked on the third ring."Assalamu alaikum bro,hope all is well?"he greeted." Wa alaikumussalam yeah I'm good hope you too? Wanted to talk to you about something hope you are not busy?" I nervously asked." I can't be too busy for you so spill it out" he chuckles." Alright then,no beating around the bush.I think I am blindly insanely in love with your sister and I love her for the sake of Allah.I love her for being her and I promise you that I will never hurt her"I blurted out in a swift motion before I loose courage and to my surprise he laughed and said I knew it."I'm so happy she will end up with you bro,if you ain't busy why don't you come to my office then we go and inform Abba about it but before that make sure you have uncle and Aunty's approval.And congratulations bro"he said.I knew my parents won't hesitate to say yes and I went straight to dad's study,he was inside drinking coffee and typing on his computer and Umma as usual is beside him reading a book.They are always adorable.I told them everything including my conversation with Zaid and they gave their blessings .Umma was so happy she hugged me tight and she even told me she was planning on hooking us up.I just prayed that her dad will approve and the most important person Bilkisu.I dressed in my favorite kaftan and we headed to Abba's office .He is a very nice man,warm ,loving and considerate .He said yes without a second thought and I thanked him before we left.
Billy's POV
I don't know what got into me,instead of me to be sad for leaving my parents and living with uncle Mustapha's family,I was overly excited and happy, the reason why?I don't know.We hanged the clothes we brought from home and went to say hi to uncle and aunty,such nice people who are very rich but live a simple life .I found myself wondering where Abdulhafiz is.He is a very nice guy,a good brother ,Muslim and he is handsome and smart.He joked around with us ,treating us like Fatima and he is also very generous.I walked off to our room thinking that they are all downstairs but I found Siddy reading a law textbook " hello smarty,want me to join?" I tickled her ." oh my God Billy,please stop! I don't like it puleeezzz" she begged in a fit of laughter." What are you reading by the way?" I asked. " Can't you read?its International law of course" she answered a bit irritated ." umm Siddy want me to tell you a secret?"I blurted the words out before I even realize what I was doing.she dropped her book aside and looked at me with interest"of course yes!why not?you are my bestest friend remember"she cooed pinching my cheeks." I like Abdulhafiz  " I said shyly."ohhh really? Do you want me to tell him that you like him?? Oh my Allah I'm so happy bae,I really am" she said excitedly ." no ! Please don't, I just want to tell someone and I told you ,he may not like a broken girl like me" I said sadly."Did you hear yourself Bilkisu?do you know how amazing and adorable you are?do you know the happiness you make everyone around you feel with your sassiness and jokes ? Please stop under rating yourself you are just you and whoever have you in their lives is Lucky." She adviced and before I replied zahrah and teemah came into the room beaming with smiles." Billy someone is waiting for you downstairs and wait let me fix your hijab"teemah says with a glint in her eyes." Can you tell me who that someone is?" I asked confused." Ohhh just be good obedient girl just this once and go down to meet your visitor" zahrah says shoving me out of the room.
*~*
I descended down the stairs curious to know who the visitor is and I saw no one but Abdulhafiz .I decided to ask him wether he knows who the visitor is."Assalamu Alaikum bro,please have you seen anyone here?I was told that someone has come looking for me downstairs." I asked and he smiled." Have a seat" he motioned towards a chair opposite him.I did as he said without putting up an argument." I am the one looking for you and I asked you to come here because I want to tell you something very important" he said and I nodded .
"Ehmmm"
" ahmmm"
" uhmm"
Then suddenly before I asked him to tell me what it is and he should not be nervous a roar of laughter erupted and to my surprise Siddy,zahrah and Teemah were laughing like maniacs with tears in their eyes.I rolled my eyes at them and turned my attention to Abdulhafiz who looked  embarrassed."Its not good to eavesdrop and you know that" he said sternly." Our bad! We will let you be and stop the ehmm ahmm uhmm and just go straight to the point. My bro is a strong guy" Fatima teased with a sing song voice as they leave.
" okay, I like you for the sake of Allah and I know that your heart had been broken but I promise you to mend every broken piece of your heart ,I will do anything to make you happy if it is not against the dictates of Islam .I will be there for you through your ups and downs and in shaa Allah I will never hurt you. If Allah wills it we will become a couple and I will not hesitate to make you the happiest girl to ever walk the earth" he confessed and I frozed.I want someone to pinch me and I will realize that it was just a dream,but I never wanna wake up.since no one is around I pinched myself several times before I convinced myself it is reality and Abdulhafiz is waiting for my answer.I am not the very shy type and I already like him so I decided not to waste our time." Thank you for liking me,May Allah bless our relationship ,guide us and protect us from any evil that may come our way.I promise to be the kind of woman you want to be with ,make you happy,be with you in good and hard times in shaa Allah" I said shyly and he looked at me with so much happiness that I have never seen before .just then ,three very excited voices squeled at once"Alhamdulillah its a match made in heaven and you two are so cute together. Congratulations"
