Muslims In Love

Chapter 10

Amina's P.O.V

I woke up at 3 a.m I didn't even know what was going on. I was pretty scared to be honest. I didn't feel good today I felt depressed and I didn't want to see anyone. But I can't let this day go to a waste. It's my job to make people happy even though I don't accept with anything. I decide to get up and make wudhu and pray to Allah. I cried and cried waiting for someone or something to come and help me but I remembered that I have allah and he's the only one that will take my stress away. I couldn't hold my tears in so I let them out, but I felt good after all my duaa and prayers were made.

I decided to go back to sleep and wish for the best.

"Wake up Amina!! We're late we need to go buy our dresses." I woke up to Amani at 10 in the morning. I kinda regretted telling her about this. It is what it is

As soon as I pulled the blanket off my face her smile turned into a frown.

"What's wrong with u" I asked
"What's wrong with me? What's wrong with u!? Why r ur eyes red and puffy?? You were crying weren't u? Get up wash ur face get and get dressed. We'll talk about this when we're out." She said acting like my mom
"There's nothing to talk about I just cried alittle thinking about what's happening today. I'm fine I swear"

While we were out shopping we saw Mustafa and Ahmed looking for suits. It was so awkward but yet funny to watch guys struggle buying things. Amani wanted to go help them, (well by them she means Mustafa because she is too shy to be around Ahmed), but I told her that there is not time and we need to find some clothes as well.

2 hours later we found some dresses. I didn't really like the dress because it was way to much for a small party like this but I had to please Amani. We kinda matched with the dresses. They were puffy but just different colors I don't know if I'll wear it but we'll see.
When we got back to my place, there were balloons all over the place and house smelled so good.
"Wow aunts you did a lot while we were gone!" Amani said as she greeted my mom
"Yes I did, and I'm not done. I wanted to do the most before u girls got back.
" awe thank you momma u didn't have to do all this, but we need to go change bye," I said as I kissed her on her head
" ooooh Amina u seem excited for this Yallah go before u change ur mind.! Oh yea one of ur friends is here.  I think she's in ur room.

Me and Amani went up stairs and I see a girl sitting on my bed reading my old notes. I immediately grabbed them from her. It was Lilly. Out of all of my "friends" Lilly is the one I find reading my old notes I used to write about Mustafa.
"Oh hey Amina, sorry for going through your stuff without permission. It seems to me that you used to have a big crush on Mustafa! she said trying to form a smile
"Um....uh....I...it wasn't for Mustafa. I said stuttering
"Come on Amina I'm not stupid. You wrote his name with big hearts it's kinda obvious as well. U should be lucky that you're gonna end up with ur crush.
"Well he's not my crush and I might not even say yes to him"
After I said that she smiled. BIG. I knew something was up.
"Why'd u smile? Looks like ur happy that I'm not gonna end up with Mustafa"
"Yess I'm so happy I was afraid u we're going to say yes to him because if u did something bad was going to happen!!
Wait what??!?!?
"What do u mean something was going to happen?!
Oh my god this makes more sense.
"So lily the only reason you came is for Mustafa right? You've always liked him? As I said that she ran out of my house
I didn't know what to do. She's here for MUSTAFA!! Why didn't I realize this sooner. No wonder Mustafa told me not to be around her, they probably had something between each other in the past.
Now for sure i don't know what to do. Why would I wanna marry someone who had a relationship before me.
And he says he loves me...hard to believe that now. I needed to find out everything before Mustafa and his family came over. My solution was Samar. She's the one who can help me out. I know she HATES Lily but she'll find a way. Or if she doesn't I have Amani. She can texts her fiancé Ahmed and tell me everything!
This day is slowly falling apart...
