Qibriyah's POV

I squealed as I hugged the life out of Maafy a.k.a. Maafroza- my only cousin, my sister,my best friend, my mate, my everything,etc.

She graoned "Why are you so excited?",she whined.

"Because" I dragged the word as I twirled her around in my arms." Today is..."
She gave me a look for dragging the words again this time.

"Today is our first day at uni!" I squealed which was halfly for teasing her.

She frowned." But I thought it was my engagement...." She said feigning sadness.

"Well you know Im happy for you but not happy that you are going to be engaged to him " I said referring to "aziz"- her to-be-fiance.

"Oh why do you hate him so much?"

"I dont hate him. I just hate the fact that you are gonna marry him."

Well, let me tell you Zak, my brother , a.k.a. Zakariyah is the one for Maafy. At least thats what I think. I'm not forcing her or anything, but its just sad to say that only I can see the way Zak looks at her, with pure love in his eyes, how much he cares for her. And well,  she does not know much about that Aziz guy. What if he just flips to a completely different person after marriage? Well that will lead to broken hearts, and so much drama.

"But he is soo cute and I am sure he is a practising muslim." she said.

"Cute doesnt matter. Tell me does he have a beard?" I asked. Even though I have seen him, only in photos, i am asking her so we both could hear the answer clearly.

"No" she replied, her head hanging low.

" Have you ever seen him in a thobe?"

"No"

"Does he resemble prophet muhammad s.a.w. in his apperance?"

"no"

" do you know if he prays at least once a day?"

"Do you know what type of company he has? What type of friends he hangs out with? What he does in his leisure? When he is disturbed or upset? Have you ever asked him?"

She sighed "No" she pursed her lips, disappointed in herself. I didnt mean to, but just proving her wrong. But i will of course help her with my precious advice.

"Well then, first get to know him, in the presence of a mehram ,of course, ask him if he fits in all these things and ask him if he'll grow a beard for you. And if he declines, reject him and In sha allah you will find someone else who will be your muslim prince charming."

She giggled and I joined.

"I guess you are right..I haven't even got the results of my istikhara yet and here I was planning to get engaged with him." She said looking thoughtfully out side the window of my room.

"I will talk to mum and dad. In sha allah they will support my decision. Or should I say the advice of miss. I-am-the-best-advicer-in-the-world."

"Very funny. Thank you." I laughed sarcastically.

Suddenly, the atmosphere switched from humorous to serious.

"Why do I feel like you have alredy framed me up with someone? "She spoke up first.

"Yes, I have. Because I think you are made for each other." I blurted.

"And may I know who that is?" She asked anxiously

I was gonna blurt "Zak" but thankfully slapped myself out of it. And blurted the first thing that came to my mind.
" Peanut!" I said referring to our neighbours dog.

Her face fell but what fell next was the slipper that she threw on my forehead.

"Ow" I rubbed my forehead and threw the slipper back at her.

"How dare you scare me like that!" She yelled and threw another slipper at me, which I dodged this time. Did I mention that my sister can be really violent sometimes. Actually we both can.

"I dont have time get into a fight with you! I have a first day at uni to attend without being late. Unlike you!"

"If you forgot, I'm in the same uni as you and its my first day too"

"Good luck poet" I said, noticing that her sentence rhymed "beacuse we are already 10 minutes late."

"Oh my Allah!" She yelled looking at the clock and rushed to the closet. I just kept laughing. I laughed even more when she realised that she is already ready and its me who has to get ready. She facepalmed herself and glared at me for laughing at her.

Well ladies and gentlemen,welcome to my world.
