"NAHID! Wake up, It's Fajr Time!!" Mom Exclaimed!

"Mom, I don't want to pray just let me sleep please." Nahid Groans.

"It's compulsary to pray why don't you understand? C'mon get up like RIGHT NOW!" Her mom fumes in anger and pulls her blanket off.

"FINE." Nahid storms into the washroom!

"Mom, I'm getting late for the field trip so can you hurry up and get me my food please?!" She shouted.

"It's ready, Honey." Her mother smiles as she comes in and hands her the box.

"Bye mom, Will see you next week." Nahid waves with an emotionless face as she enters in her car, and leaves with the driver, to the bus stop.

"Stay safe."Her mom waves back.

"ABDULLAH, are you not gonna leave for the trip, mate?" SHAHID asks.

Shahid And Abdullah met in their secondary school's first year. Since then they have become best friends and now they are family friends as both the families gather quite often. Even though they have different religious beliefs, their friendship still has blossomed a long way.

"No, bro. Did I not tell you it's a combined trip? I don't feel like going there along with so many Non-Mehram girls around me."

"Oh c'mon dude. It's just a field trip, not like they're gonna gang up on you and ask you out man." Shahid giggles.

"Please, my deen doesn't allow me so it's not just a field trip, it's more than that for me." He sighs.

"So freaking old-fashioned." He replies under his breath.
