It was Friday morning at about 10:00 when i received a message from Naadz saying that she could not manage to come bowling with me and our friends. I replied asking what was wrong. When she didn’t reply i thought maybe she was on her monthly periods, because when she is she hates going out and she PMS’s a lot. So i left it at that…
*Bowling*
Basheer and Basheera, the twins came, Zuhair and his friend Faizel, Maisara and I. We were about 6 people so we needed more people to join in so i said i’ll phone my few white friends, yup i’ve got many. About 5 of them pitched up, it was Melissa with her boyfriend Jonathan, Jennie with Luke and Nadiyyah. Nadiyyah never ever wanted a Boyfriend which i admired her even though she was not Muslim.
*2 days later*
Naadz still hasn’t sent me a message. I was getting soooo damn worried. Normally she would send me a dm on twitter if she did not have her phone. I decided to try to phone but her phone was off. Something was definitely wrong!
I got dressed and went to pay Naadirah a visit. Her mum opened the door and invited me in. I sat in the lounge and as I waited, I saw Naadirah’s brother, Yusuf, approach me. He had a stern look on his face and asked what I wanted. I felt it quite rude but answered saying that I came to see Naadirah.
He looked upset and insisted that I go home as I can’t be friends with Naadirah anymore! Just then, Naadirah walked into the lounge and we both went to her room.
Her eyes were all puffy and I could tell that she was crying. There was a moment of silence when we walked in her room and I was the first to speak.
Me: Hey Naadz. How u doing?
Naadirah: I’m uhm…ok I guess and u?
Me: Whyy? What’s wrong?
Naadirah: It’s nothing much
She was forcing a smile and I could tell that she was hurting inside
Me: It’s not nothing. What’s wrong?
Naadirah: Yusuf doesn’t want us to be friends…
Me: What?! Why?!?
Naadirah: Well…remember when I invited you and Zuhair over when my parents were out? Mahmood told Yusuf. I’m grounded and he took away my phone, I pad and everything
I could hear she was holding back tears when she told me the story.
Me: Awww I am sooo sorry. This is all my fault!
Naadirah: No, it’s not. I’m glad you here. I missed you
Me: Awww I missed you too!
We hugged and thereafter was forced to leave as Yusuf was talking to Naadirah’s mum about the situation. She was wondering when she heard Yusuf tell me to leave and not be friends with Naadirah. I was on my way out and I saw Naadirah’s mum’s face. She was disappointed and furious. I heard them say that they were going to tell her dad when he comes home from the shop.
I was soo worried and felt guilty as this was my fault. She just wanted to make me happy. I don’t know what Naadirah and I would do if we can’t be friends. We can’t live without each other. She’s my other half. I hope everything works out…
All i could do that night was make my Salaah, pray to my Allah that everything could work out and read Surah Yaseen. All i had to do was have trust in Allah!!!
