Their fate: Created in pair

Chapter 11

Idris pov:

My annoying Siblings have been teasing me a lot, Maybe they have forgotten I'm their Elder brother, Zyan and Mihra were walking behind talking about Afra, "Sharam karo, bada bhai hoon tumhara" I said while turning back, they both stop in their tracks, they looked at eachother, Was it fear? No. They burst into laughter, I sigh, they've been testing my patience for the past two days,

"Tum dono sudhroge nahi" I said rolling my eyes, Zyan went back to his room and Mihra followed me to my room, she sat on the bed.

"Bhaiya, I'm not here to tease you now" she said

"Oh, Thank you very much" I said sitting on my bed,

"Bhaiya, Do you like Afra?" She asked, with a soft smile. My heart skipped a beat at this question,

"Stop talking nonsense" I said

"Bhaiya, I'm actually serious, Do you like her?" I fell silent,

"I take that as a yes then" she replied, And I quickly glanced at her, A soft and warm smile on her face.

"Bhaiya, Listen to your heart, If you do like her, ask her hand in marriage, don't ignore your feelings until it's too late" she said and went away. 'Whatever she said was right, but what if Afra doesn't like me back?' I thought.

"Allahumma Bismika Amutu Wa Ahya"
I whispered and closed my eyes.

I woke up at 4, I got up from my bed and went towards the bathroom, I brushed and made wudu. I pray Tahajjud at home, after praying 4 rakats, I fell into prostration.

"Ya Allah, if she's not in my naseeb make her my naseeb, You are Al-Mujeeb, The answerer of prayers, Please Let her be my Mehram" I said in prostration.

I sat on my prayer and started to think, After a few minutes, I decided to talk with Ishaan and Hasan about this.

Me and Zyan made our way to the Masjid, I didn't say anything until we made our way back home, "I have something to say.." I said with hesitation, Ishaan and Hasan turned to me.

I stopped in my tracks and they were a few steps ahead of me, "I..I want to ask Afra hand in marriage" I said glancing down, The Silence made my heart beat fast, I looked up and saw them smiling widely,
I raised my eyes in confusion.

"Idris bhai, Did you ever know how my parents wanted you to be their Son-in-law?" Hasan said with a brotherly smile.

I remembered something, the day where My parents and Mirha were talking about Afra to be their daughter-in-law,
My eyes shined with happiness.

"I talk to Abbu about this, I'm sure he'll agree" Ishaan said with a happy smile.

"I'll text you when Abbu agrees, but first Inform your parents ." Ishaan Exclaimed.

My smile grew wider, I saw Hasan and Ishaan eyes widen with shock, probably because of me Smiling like an Idiot.

We went back to our houses, I went towards my parents room and knocked on it, of course they'd be awake for Salah, Ammi opend the door confusion in her eyes, "Assalamualaikum, Ammi" "Walaikum assalam, Beta, Kya hua sab khairiyat?" She asked "Ammi I want to talk about something" she nodded, We went inside, Baba and Ammi sitting on their bed and me on the couch.

"What happened, Idris?" Baba broke the silence.

"Abbu, I-I'm going to ask Afra's hand in marriage, I want to marry her" I said my leg bouncing.

"Ma'Sha'Allah!!" Ammi shouted, she got up from the bed and sat behind me.

"I always wanted Afra to be part of our family" She said with tears in her eyes, Was I shocked? no.

"You have made a good decision, Son" Baba said with a warm smile, I hugged my mom and later I went to my room.

"Alhamdulillah ya rabbi, Thank you for everything" I said with tears in my eyes which didn't fall.

I went to the gym, My daily routine.

After 2 hours, I came back, I saw Mihra Jumping with happiness in the hall, 'Ammi must have told her' I thought.

I went towards the hall and Greeted them with a slight smile, Zyan and Mihra ran towards me and hugged me.

"You have made a good decision, Bhaiya, I'm so happy with this" she said with a wide smile

"Me too" Zyan said.

"Bhaiya, don't be nervous, I'm sure Afra's gonna accept it" Mihra said.

"How are you so sure about that?" Mihra and Zyan glanced at each other and burst into laughter.

"Because she likes you back, Idiot!!" they whispered shout. I felt so happy, like I was on the 9th cloud, Tears formed in my eyes, yesterday I doubted myself 'what if Afra doesn't like me back?' and now this.

As message popped, it was from Ishaan, I glanced at my siblings and clicked on the message, "I promised you Abbu will agree, We are coming after Magrib" A soft smile appeared on my face and I showed the message to my siblings, "Ammi, Baba they'll be coming after magrib!! Ibrahim uncle agreed!!" Mihra yelled with happiness, "Hayee aaj tho bohat kaam hai" Ammi said and quickly went to Inform the chefs. My heart swelled at the Sight, The moment I always since the first day I met her.

Afra's pov:

I went downstairs to see the happy faces, Confusion grew in me as I went to the hall, "What's the occasion?" They all glanced at me at the same time, "Beta, We received another marriage proposal for you" My heart skipped a beat, Tears almost forming in my eyes, "Abbu, I've told you I don't want to marry-" I was cut off by Hasan bhaiya, "It's from Idris"
He said with a grin, "Huh" was the only word which left from my mouth.

Ofcourse I am happy, so much happy that I wanted to scream. I've thought he wouldn't like me back but in the end He was the one who sent me the marriage proposal.

"Do you still don't wanna get married?" Hasan replied with a smirk on his face and all of them chuckled.

"Beta, Idris is a good person and all of us know it" Ammi Exclaimed.

"Should we go meet them today, Meri bacchi?" Abbu asked with a soft smile.

How could I reject it? A marriage proposal from the person I fell in love with? No way.

I nodded with shyness and lowered my head, I ran back to my room and grabbed my phone, Of course Mihra spammed my phone with texts and missed calls.

I called her back and no even 5 seconds went by she answered the like she was eagerly waiting for it.

"ASSALAMUALAIKUM!!" She and Zyan shouted with a wide smile, "Walaikum assalam" I sad softly.

"Dekha Afra aapa, mei nei theek kaha aap meri bhabhi banne wali hoon" he said which made me blush.

"AY TU CHUP REH MUJHE BAAT KARNE DE" Mihra yelled, "Mei baat kar raha na!!" Zyan yelled back and ofcourse it made me chuckle, "Kya chal raha yaha, Kyu cheek rahe ho aap dono" I hear Idris say, My breath Hitched and my cheek heated up hearing his voice.

"Aao bhaiya, Bhabhi se he baat kar rahe the" Mihra said, And I knew she had a stupid smirk on her face.

"Sudhar jao" He said I heard the door shut, Both Zyan and Mihra bursted into laughter and here me who was dying out of shyness.

We talked for a few minutes and I ended the call, I stared at the celling and smile took over my face, "Alhamdulillah" I whispered
