Iqra ceased her eyes shut when the light rays of the sun entered the room from the peeks of the curtains and hit her eyes, jolting her awake

She stirred until she was comfortable in her husbands embrace

Unable to resist the urge, she ran her fingers gently through his soft hair, as he soundly slept with his lips apart and sound breathing

"Hmmfftt" he muttered, heaving out a breath and shuffling about

"As salaam" whispered Iqra, smiling at his half closed eyed self

"Was salaam" he muttered, pulling her close

"Time to get up" she added and he groaned

"I deserve a break from all the drama" he muttered in his pillow which came out more like 'serve-reak-roll-herma"

"Say what?" she asked him

"Never mind" with that he flipped his body to the other side of the pillows and closed his eyes

Iqra sighed and looked up to the digital watch on the ceiling

It read 6:00am

Meaning they only had 2 hours of sleep since the whole night was spent thinking and worrying about the future

"Shumayll!!" she whined and he shrugged before sleeping again

Iqra carefully crawled on his bare back and placed her head on his shoulder before dozing off again. Their sleeping positions were very weird as thought by Iqra but well, its Iqrayll we talking about, nothing about them is normal

At around 11am, Loriza walked out of her room ready for the day. Wearing a long black abhaya with same signature hijab, she was ready to tackle whatever was thrown her way today

"Are you alright, ma'am?" asked their housekeeper Mrs. Jones and Loriza nodded, smiling at the old lady

"So breakfast, anything they want- if they ask for me, tell them I am at the bridal shop for somethings with Fatima" with that Loriza bid the housekeeper goodbye and strode outside

Getting in hr Mercedes, she drove down to the luxurious boutique to finalise the wedding details with Fatima

She could not help but think 'This is what life is meant to be!'

Finally the Edris and Loriza problem was fixed, they apologized and made a promise to stay with each other through the good and the bad no matter what

Waarith slept at 6 in the morning, after running about the nearest park with Nafaasat

And was still asleep when the whole house was chaotic!

"WHERE THE HELL IS WAARITH!?!" yelled out Omar and his wife, Ruhana smiled at him

"He must be out- relax!" she assured him

The couple were happy to have Waarith as their kid, only son actually because Waarith was not only an ideal son, but also very intelligent and well mannered. The best traits about him were his mannerisms and character that he was most well-known for

"Where is Aarib? Or better yet, where are Aarib, Waarith and Shumayll?" questioned Elisha and Aariz smirked

Aariz knew where his brothers were the other night, Shumayll was alright since he was married but Aariz was suspicious of his other two brothers, who in their entire existence never bothered to talk to girls other than business were there, talking to the two sisters
