Amin's POV
After Jassmin came into my life, I felt closer to Allah SWT. Not only her character but my feelings for her were also brining me closer to my Lord. Today is Friday and it's my favourite day of the week because firstly, Jassmin will stay over at my place and we can't spend more time together. Secondly, it was Jummah (Islamic holy day of the week). As soon as I finished my prayer I was waiting for Jassmin to come back home. I don't need to fetch her back as because Jassmin will be coming back together with Aisha which also means I no longer have to leave my work earlier to fetch her even though I like doing it, I don't want my income to be affected. I need to take care of Jassmin since she is my responsibility. I need to make sure that she is happy and had everything that she wants.

"Assalamakalium!" She said with a shy smile on her face.

"Walaikum Salam" I replied .

"Freshen up and be quick."I told her.
I think she wasn't even shy these days anymore, she just like to mess with me.

I think she knew that I was waiting impatiently for her the last five days to at least hold her. I went to look for her and found her talking to Aisha. She was doing Aisha's hair and was talking to her about the prophets.

As I walked in and sat down , I stared at her. Just then, Aisha said that she will leave and walked out of the room leaving me and Jassmin alone. I walked up to her and hugged her for awhile. After a while, we broke the hug and she went towards the bed and sat down.

"Jassmin , for the holidays let's go to turkey."

"OMG!! Are you serious? I always wanted to go there!"

"Yup that means we will spent three week in Turkey."

"THREE weeks??!! But I have exams after the break."

She said and her smile faded. That was true enough and an issue to my work as well. Because I am not sure if they will give me three weeks off.

But I wanted to spend time with Jassmin.

"Okay then. How about two weeks of holiday and two weeks of revising?" I said, as it sounded good to me but Jassmin disagree with it.

"How about ten days at least?" I suggested.

"Alright." She said.

"But you have to spend most of your break with me." If only she knew how much I missed her.

"Well I will think about it!" She said getting up and I grabbed her hand.

"Where are you going?"

"To get your food."

"Don't worry I will do that." I said pressing my lip against the back of her hand. Her cheeks turned red and when I asked about her, she said she was too hot but after five minutes later she said it was because I was close to her.

She walked into the kitchen and I followed her.

"Where's mum?" I asked.

"She's in her room, she spends a lot of her time there and I went to check is she's  okay often and she says she is."

Soon enough Aisha and mum came down. Mum began watching TV as Jassmin , Aisha and I played snakes and ladder. After a while we went back to our room and fall asleep.

Aisha's POV
So after my university ended, I was waiting for Jassmin at the nearby cafe. I ordered my drink and was waiting to for it.

"Aisha!" Someone called me. I found the voice familiar and as I turn around. I saw the person who I didn't want to see again in my life. The person I used to love. The person who throw away Jassmin after loving her. Yes! It was Yusuf.

"Yusuf?" I was shocked.

"Ya it's me, can I talk to you?" He asked me

"Yes. But it's time for Jassmin to finish her classes. Why don't we meet another day?" I told him. I was in the mood to talk to him and I didn't want Jassmin to see him again or else she will feel stressed and depressed. I saw Jassmin was walking towards the cafe.

I told Yusuf that I need to rush off and went towards Jassmin with that we both reached home.

At night I was playing snake and ladder with my Brother and Jassmin. I think they are getting closer because

I can see that my Brother misses Jassmin the entire week. I just pray that may Allah SWT bless them always with happiness
