Yusuf's POV
i really cant't handle this amin, sometimes he is the best friend i ever had but sometimes he is the most annoying person i have ever seen . Today he was stubborn because he invites me to his house. I already told amin that i will be seeing her this Friday. After hearing this he was really happy and start teasing but only i know that i am going to reject this proposal. i mean i am not prepared to have a wife and family. I am not ready to handle responsibilities.
"YUSUF ! Hurry up " he shouted and i break away from my thoughts. I had no choice but to follow him to his house. I shut down my laptop and get the files that i need to work on at home. i left and i saw amin standing in the carpark, we made our way to my car. We were on the way to amin's house and that's when amin ask me something "yusuf do you believe in love ?" he asked me. i looked at him but his face has no expression. " I dont believe in love, i mean how can people love the moment they see each other ? i mean without knowing if the girl is single or married ?" i told him and he just smile. "Wait till you see your future wife , then let me see if you still think the same!" and with that he start laughing. I stared at him until he keeps his mouth shut.
Finally we have reached his house , he knocked on the door and we waited for the door to be opened. It was opened by a lady with dark brown eyes and she was wearing blue top, black skirt and purple scarf. She looks beautiful. I could not prevent myself from looking at her.
Amin said his salam and she told him that his mum is having a nap and his sister is sleeping. So this girl, is not Amin's sister then who is she??. I was really curious to ask but thought of asking to Amin later. Just then, As though Amin read my mind he introduce her to me, her name was jassmin, What a beautiful name i thought. Amin entered the house first and i followed him when i walked past her i couldnt control myself but smile at her. I saw Amin's mum coming down froim her room and amin sister was awake. i gave my salam to aunty (Amin's mum). We had our dinner. Amin's mum cooked chappati with keema. It was delicious. After dinner, Jassmin left to go home. Amin's mum wanted Amin to drive her home but she says it's okay, she can walk home since it is only 15 mins away.
I had this feeling that i couldnt describe . I wanted her to stay longer and i wanted to look at her. I feel completely different. After chatting with Aunty, i decided to leave. I said my salam and left. I couldn't stop thinking about her when i was driving her cute eyes and the way she respects Amin's mum.
I parked my car and went to the living where i say mum watching tv and i said my salam to her just then my dad called me .
" Yusuf, i want to tell you that we will be seeing the girl on Friday evening. So come home early. " My dad told me.
" Hmmm... Okay i will !" was all i could say because i know what is going to happen on friday.
As i walk into my room, i quickly changed into t-shirt and pants. I did my office work and i was thinking on why my dad wants me to marry his friend's daughter. Honestly, one i dont want to take responsibility if having a family and second thing is i dont like to be forced to get married that the reason why i dont want to marry the girl i am going to meet on Friday.
But jassmin doesn't leave my mind, i think i liked her.
Assalamkalium, so sorry for the late update was kinda busy. So What do you think? Is Yusuf in love with jassmin? What will happen on Friday? i will try to update the next chapter ASAP.
