khaleefah

----------

I just got engaged to my one and only special girl, and now I have to tell her my secret, after all there is no relationship without trust, it's just that some times its hard.You know what I mean right?

I sat down with my cuppa, with the morning wind, rippling through my sweats. I took my tea upwards,about to place it in my mouth when my phone rang.

phone convo

khleefah: hey

zareefah: hey future husband

I started to blush fiercely thank god we are on a phone call, if not it will have so embarrassing.

yes. guys blush too.

we talked a little about the wedding, and ended the call, well now am engaged to this wonderful girl, and I cant tell her my secret, I cant wait to say ''am engaged'' to my fathers face. Knowing I spoilt his plan of getting married to who he wants.

'' well son congrats, but you are not getting married to her'' my dad said.

'' why'', I asked confused knowing I followed his conditions without any left behind.

'' I have already found another gir-''I cut him off.

'' I am not marrying anyone but her, and if you force me i will make her life a living hell'' I said.

'' I don't care its her money'' he said.

'' what?, you are making people pay for my marriage? you know what am tired of doing what you want, forget it am not getting married'' I said.

'' its not my wish for you to get married, its your moms so do what you think its right'' he said. I gently closed the door I was so frustrated, trying to keep myself calm. Because banging the door clearly won't solve anything.

After a while, I heard a knock on my door. I ignored it.

Khalili?" I heard her voice say softly."are you okay?"

''I think you will like to hear what I will say'' she said, I stood up knowing sooner or later I will have the lecture of my life.

I opened the door for her to enter then I noticed she wasn't alone, so I let him in too, she sat on my bed, she shoved my dad a little

'' you can marry whatever her name is'' he said not wanting to look at my face, knowing I won.

''really? I asked excited.

' don't make me change my mind'' he said as left, my mom hugged me " may Allah make me witness your marriage" she said as she kissed my forehead."And please treat her right, if you love her, then treat her like a princess, because if you don't feel the need to pamper her then she might not be worth it"

********
The next day me and my dad went to ask for zareefah's hand in marriage, it went well because, her brother is my best friend since we graduated from high school. Which made it easier to convince her father. Zareefah's mom and aunts went crazy with the decoration, we got bored, just then her friends and cousins came(Maryam, Imaan, Adam, Yusuf).

We didn't know what to do so but Yusuf randomly suggested we play hide and seek, as we were playing, I entered a closet, it was slightly open, so I saw zareefah looking for a place to hide, so I just dragged her in with me.

ZAREEFAH

--------------

As I was looking for a hiding spot, someone closed my mouth then dragged me into the closet. I closed my eyes tight, and prayed silently, I tried to loosen the persons grip, but it was too strong.

''I know your strong but that doesn't make you stronger than me'' I heard a voice say,

'khaleefah!

I hit his arm, I don't know how but I fell on his lap, and the closet wasn't that big, considering its where coats are kept.

''sorry'' I said, feeling awkward, I stood up but I lost my balance and fell again, by falling down he pecked my cheeks, my cheeks turned red, and I felt him tense, causing my muscles to go weak.

"Is that a blush I see?" He asked teasing, shining the bright light in my eyes making scrunch my nose and shutting my eyes. I hit him a little.

"What? I deserve to see my future wife shy" he said, I rolled my eyes, leaving a smirk on his face.
