A Muslim's Past [COMPLETED]

Chapter 20

Hasnain's POV

I wasn't really sure whether or not what I was doing right. Sometimes I would wake up guilty as if I shouldn't have said but other times I felt it was right.

Atif still hadn't mentioned anything. I thought I'd give him some time. I mean it would take some time for him to understand what I was saying I guess.

I knew I should probably get my family involved but it wasn't worth it if Amrah was just going to say no. Maybe she would say yes. I don't know.

I still had so much to sort out in my life. What about if she found out about everything I'd done? She'd hate me. I hated myself.

I needed to sort everything out. What I did there weren't any excuses for.

I was sat at my laptop when I heard the Skype voice call.

It was Aminah.

"Assalaamu alaikum Hasnain."

I knew it was probably time that I mentioned Atif to her. I didn't really want to.

"I know about you and Atif." I blurted out. She looked confused momentarily.

"There's nothing to know Has. And wait how do you know?"

"I found out ages ago." I thought against mentioning how I had found out.

"Right...? You don't seem mad. I mean not that there was anything for you to get mad over. But with you, you never know."

"It doesn't matter anymore. Just in future, please tell me. I don't like finding things about my own sister from other sources." She raised her eyebrows,

"Bro, you're the one in love with his cousin. I'm just friends with Atif. I think it's you that's the one keeping secrets." I rolled my eyes. I had told Aminah a few days ago about Amrah.

"What did she say?" I shrugged. I was waiting on Atif.

It felt like it had been years.

But there wasn't much I could but wait.

No point pushing it.

I had to concentrate on university anyway so at least that was a distraction.
