Safia's POV

I was walking with everything that happened earlier on my mind. I still couldn't believe that Brody actually kissed me out of nowhere and on top of that, I couldn't believe that I let him get this close to me.

I kept on whispering 'Astagfirullah' for the things I had done, like even giving him the chance to make a move on me. The Shaytaan was playing tricks with me the last few weeks and I felt that my connection with Allah (Subhana Wa'Tahala) was cutting off with every misstep I made.

This needs to stop, but hell, it felt so good.

That right there, are 2 thoughts, 1 part that comes from Allah and the other one from the Shaytaan. May Alllah protect us from Shaytaan's whispers.

Without me even noticing, I arrived home. I opened the door as quietly as possible, but failed big time. You know, when you try to be as silent as possible but everything must make a noise at that time? Well, that's what was happening at this moment.

I opened the door slowly and closed it which took me about 5 minutes. Not kidding.. Our front door is, let me say, pretty old.

Once the door was finally closed, I turned around and was planning to go back to my room, switch into my pyjamas and accompany Malik and my brother on whatever they were doing.

Unfortunately, that was a too good of a plan to actually succeed..

"And where were you?" My brother asked in his slightly angry and worried voice.

"Out" I responded, whilst my cheeks turned red, if they only knew what happened 10 minutes ago.

"If mom finds out that you've been out, oh she will make sure.." Amin said but Malik interrupted him.

"Just let it be man, I gotta go" Malik said.

Amin and I both were surprised by what he just said.

"Brother, you don't tell me what to do", Amin said annoyed.

That was actually really weird, like since when doesn't Malik agree with my brother? Did he knew where I was? Why did it feel like he knew where I was?

"Sorry man, Safia, I'll see you at school", Malik said and left without even making any eyecontact with me. He was looking at Amin the entire time. If this was a staring contest, Malik would of definitely won it.

What the hell was going on?

*Earlier that day*

Brody's POV

"Hey man, where are you going?" I heard someone ask me as I was walking out of school.

Safia was right the entire time, ofcourse I noticed how my nose kept bleeding in class and I knew what I had. This can't be happening again, I don't have the power to go through it like I did before.

I'm done fighting, if it is what I think it is, then that will be the end of my life.

"Oh hey Malik" I greeted him back.

"Are you okay Bro? You seem.. Euhm off" Malik asked. If he only knew what I was battling with.

"Yeah I'm fine"

"Well, class is the other way" He said.

"Euhm no, I'm not going to class". Even I was confused at I was saying and I could see on his face that he also wasn't following anymore.

"Dude, you're everything but okay and if you're not telling me, I will call your mom, sister or Safia" Malik said.

Only that last name woke me up because I know that he doesn't has my mother nor my sister's number. And he definitely has Safia's, everyone but Safia can know what's happening.
