The Perfect Storm (A Muslim Story)

Chapter Five:Why?Why?Why?!!!!!

As I walked back to my room after praying all I could do was think about Why he wanted to meet me? Did he want to make sure it was me? Did he want to talk to me? Question after question kept on popping in my head and finally I couldnt take it anymore so I tried telling my mind to stop Over thinking. But the thing about brains is that they never listen to you. 

I opened the large Oak door and let my self fall on the soft mattress. I still couldn't stop thinking so I finally decided to do the one thing I was sure that would help me. Read the Holy Quran.

I turned page by page until I found Surah Ar Rahmaan. It was my favorite Surah.
Time passed as I recited the surah, just as I was about to keep the Quran back on the shelf I heard the door open. It was Nuh.

"Reciting?" Nuh asked as he came in.
"Yeah.. But I'm done now." I replied as I gestured for him to sit.

He looked at me with concern as he calmly said,"I know what you are upset about!"
My eyes widened as my mouth dropped open. Ya Allah! What am I going to do? How did he know? Who told him? 

He looked at me with a funny expression before he burst out laughing. I was so annoyed with him and my face clearly showed the annoyance and I knew it. Just as I shot up from the bed with he ran for the door as he shouted,"I knew it! So you were hiding something from me!" 

I was beyond annoyed now. If I caught him I was going to make sure to tickle him until he started begging for me to stop! 

As I ran after him I lost hope of catching him. Panting, I stopped running and collapsed on the sofa. As soon as I stopped panting I put my hands on both eyes and acted as if I was crying.
Not long after I heard Nuh taking small quiet steps near me. I was waiting for the right time to get a hold of him otherwise my plan would go down the drain. 

I knew from past experiences that he was making sure that I wasn't acting. I know I know! I can be the quite the drama queen.

Finally it was the correct time and I took a firm hold of his thobe still acting. I looked at him with my best puppy eyes *smirks in my head* and let out a sniffle. *Bravo!*

He looked at me with sympathy and said," I'm so sorry, I didn't know that you were crying." He paused. *Yes!I did it!* "But what I know is that you were being dramatic!" He says and runs off. 

Aargh! With all the cheering in my head I had let go of his thobe without knowing. Plan failed! Time for plan B. Attack mode On!

I was going to sneak in to his room and hide something of his until I was satisfied. Probably his phone or either his laptop. *Evil Laugh* But that plan also failed! When I went in to his room I saw Nuh already sitting on his sofa as if he was waiting for me. By the look in his face I knew that he was serious. One of the rules in our relationship was that we never lied to each other. I was not ready to tell anything to Nuh and Him being his teacher did not make things any easier. He would be beyond broken and our brother sisterly relationship would simply break if I told him a lie. And I didnt want to tell him the truth because I wasn't ready and partly also because he would be beyond angry after hearing what I had to tell him. 

Getting out of my trance I turned around and was about to quietly tiptoe out of the room when he called me. Oh No! 

I turned around with my poker face and said,"Akhi, I have to go help mum set the table for tea."

"Come sit, Helen can help her. Something tells me you are trying to run away." He replies with a smirk.

"Lol, Its Helens day off you  know!" I say as I rush out.

But too sad for me he caught my arm just in time too. *sighs* He dragged me by the elbow and gently made me sit on the sofa. He gave me that Im really serious look as he sat down on the sofa infront of me. I pouted and put on my puppy eyes as I said,"Please, I really have to go Granpa!" 

He didn't even reply and just stared at me long enough make me shut up. Just great! Exactly what I needed!

" Okay, Okay! What do you want to talk about?" I said finally getting serious.

"Finally! I just wanted to know if you are okay, You have been acting weird since morning. After meeting him..." He paused and looked towards the wall as if he was thinking for a few seconds before he continued. "Wait a minute! Did the teacher do something to you?" He said with concern. Only if you knew what he did! Only if you knew how he betrayed me as if it was the easiest thing to do! Only if you knew how he used me for his own good! Only if you knew how much he had hurt me.. 

He snapped his finger infront of my face as he said," Tell me, Did he? I will beat him up black and blue if he even dared to lay a finger on you!" 

"NO,NO,NO!! Its nothing like that! I was just caught up with something."I replied. His facial expression relaxed as he said,"Then tell me what that something is?" 

Oh no! why? why? 

Alhamdhullilah!! Mum opened the door as she said," Come on up to the terrace to have tea, Its chocolate cupcakes and some cookies I baked just now while you two were lazing around!" 

I shot up from my seat trying not to look that eager as I followed mum with Nuh trailing behind me. 

On the way up the stairs mum said,"Habibty, You might want to change in to something else.. There is a guest here. A male so makesure to wear your Niqab too!"

"Okay, Mum!" I said almost too cheerfully. I went back to my room washed my face, and put on a loose a Abaya wrapped my hijab and finally wore the niqab all in a hurry as my tummy was crying for food. I went up the stairs in a hurry but slowed down at the third floor and then went at a normal pace as not to seem disrespectful. 

I opened the door to the green house in the terrace as I said an Ahsalaam Alaikum. The green house was quite lovely with all the roses and various types of plants blooming. It looked quite wonderful. I let my gaze wander to the the table set in the middle of the green house as I walked towards it.  

I almost stopped in my tracks as I saw those familiar emerald eyes looking at me. Not Again! Is this make Rawah remember him day or something? Argh!
