Adopted by Zayn Malik

Shopping Spree!

Yasmin's POV
Today was the day that I have been waiting for- a shopping spree with my dad Zayn Malik. I have always wanted to go on shopping spree but never got round to it because my dad is always busy working for his new album and always in the studio. So I thought it might be an idea to ask him now if we could go together and get some new stuff that I need. I could hardly contain my excitement.

I had always admired my dad, not just because he was Zayn Malik, the famous singer, but because he was also my dad. He was kind, funny, and always made time for me, even if it was just for a brief moment between studio sessions. I had been wanting to go on a shopping spree for ages, and today was finally the day.

"Dad, when can we go to the shops? I wanna get some new clothes, shoes, a laptop and everything," I asked eagerly I looked at him with pleading eyes.

My dad looked up from his phone smiled warmly replied "We can go later at 1pm sharp we will go to Walmart to get some clothes and things you will need."

My eyes lit up with excitement "Thank you, thank you, thank you!" I rushed over to him hugging him tightly.

he chuckled "You're welcome sweetheart!" He hugged me back as well  and for that brief moment, everything felt perfect..  "Alright, alright! But let's make sure that we have the shopping list so we'll know what you'll need." he said, pulling away slightly.

"What do you need?" I pulled out my notebook that has the list of things I'll need. Filled with drawings and notes full of ideas. "Ok, let me show you!" flipping through the pages.

"I need some really cute trainers, some trendy tops-ooh! And a backpack that can hold my laptop! I'll also need some swimming costumes and an iPhone case."

My dad nodded, his eyes sparkling with amusement "Okay got it, you should probably get ready go upstairs and change."

"OK dad I will see you in a few minutes." I dashed upstairs excitement building up inside of me.

After the quick shower I brushed my teeth, I stood in front of my wardrobe planning on what to wear for the day. I wanted to look cute but also comfortable for a day of shopping. I finally settled on my favourite outfit—a bright pink crop top paired with high-waisted jeans and my trusty white trainers. I felt confident and ready to take on the world. When I made my way back downstairs, I found my dad waiting for me in the living room, scrolling through his phone again but looking up when he heard my footsteps.

"Wow, you look great!" he said, his eyes widening in approval.

"Thanks, Dad! I'm so excited!" I grinned, unable to hide my enthusiasm.

"Alright, let's grab your list and head out." He took my hand, and together we walked out to the car. It felt surreal, holding my dad's hand, knowing that we were about to have an amazing day together. As we drove to Walmart, we chatted about everything and anything—my school, his music, and what we were hoping to find. I could see the proud smile on his face when I talked about my latest school project, and it made my heart swell.

When we finally arrived at Walmart, I could hardly contain my excitement." Dad, look at all the stores!" I exclaimed, pointing out the various shops as we walked towards the entrance.

"Let's focus on the list first, okay?" he said, chuckling at my eagerness.

We stepped inside, and the sight of brightly coloured clothes and shiny shoes greeted us. It felt like entering a treasure trove. I pulled out my list and glanced at it, making sure we covered everything. "First stop, shoes!" I declared, dragging my dad toward the shoe aisle. As we browsed through the shelves, I spotted a pair of adorable trainers—white with a pop of neon pink. "Dad! Can I try these on?" I asked, my eyes sparkling with hope.

"Of course! Let's see how they look on you," he replied, picking up the box and handing it to me. I slipped them on and stood in front of the mirror.

"What do you think?" I asked, turning to him for his opinion.

"They look perfect, Yasmin! You've got great taste," he said, giving me a thumbs up. With my new trainers in hand, we continued our shopping spree. I picked out some trendy tops, a cute backpack that could hold my laptop, and even a couple of swimming costumes that I had been eyeing for our upcoming summer vacation.

We spent hours laughing, trying on clothes, and even joking about some of the outfits we found. There was a moment when I tried on a ridiculous hat, and my dad burst into laughter, taking a quick picture to capture the memory.

"This is going straight to your mom!" he said, wiping tears from his eyes.

"I can't believe you're embarrassing me like this!" I giggled, playfully pushing him away.

"Just capturing the moment, sweetheart," he replied with a wink, and I couldn't help but smile at how effortlessly he made me feel loved. As we moved to the electronics section, I felt a mix of excitement and nervousness about asking for the laptop. I had been saving up for one, but I knew my dad would want to help me as well.

"Dad, can we check out the laptops?" I asked hesitantly.

"Of course! Let's see what they have," he said, leading the way. As we browsed through the different options, I found a sleek silver laptop that looked perfect for my needs.

"What do you think of this one?" I asked, my heart racing.

"It looks great! And it has good reviews. Should we get it?" he asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Yes, please!" I squealed, feeling a rush of happiness wash over me.

After filling our cart with everything I wanted, we headed to the checkout. As we waited in line, I couldn't help but reflect on how perfect the day had been. "Dad, this has been the best day ever!" I said, leaning against the cart.

"I'm glad you're having fun, Yasmin. I want to make sure you know how special you are to me," he replied, a serious tone creeping into his voice.

"I know, Dad. I love spending time with you," I said, feeling a warmth in my heart.

After paying for our items, we made our way outside with our shopping bags. I could feel the sun on my skin it feels nice but warm. We made our to the car he unlocked the car loaded our shopping bags into the back of the car and closed the door. "Thankyou for today dad I truly had the best time." My heart full of joy as I leaned my head against the window. Sitting in the passenger seat as we drove back home.

"I had a great time too, Yasmin. We should do this more often," he replied, glancing at me with a soft smile.

As we pulled into our driveway, I couldn't help but feel a little sad that our day was coming to an end. "Can we do something like this again soon?" I asked hopefully.

"Absolutely! Just let me know when you want to go on another adventure," he said, ruffling my hair affectionately.I beamed at him, feeling a warmth in my heart that only a day spent with my dad could bring. "I love you, Dad."

"I love you too, sweetheart," he replied, his eyes shining with affection.

As I unpacked my shopping bags later that evening, I felt a sense of fulfilment wash over me. It wasn't just the clothes or the laptop that made the day special—it was the moments we shared, the laughter, and the love that filled every second.I pulled out my new trainers and admired them, a smile creeping onto my face. But more than that, I cherished the bond I had with my dad, the memories we created, and the knowledge that no matter how busy he got, he always made time for me.That night, as I lay in bed, I thought about how lucky I was to have Zayn Malik as my dad. He was my hero, not just because of his music, but because of the love he showed me every single day.
