Ayesha is your average 22 year old muslimah who goes to University. A muslimah who doesn't wear a hijab. All her life she has been asked the same question " Where is your hijab?" She got bullied since she was 10 by her so called sweet cousins Badia...
As Ayesha was crossing the road to get to the bus stop she was in such deep thought about the unknown number that she nearly got run over.
As soon as she got to school she showed Gabriella the messages. None of the girls could figure out what was going on so they decided to rest the case for the day and turned their attention to the new years party coming up at their uni.
"We have to go shopping tomorrow!" Gabriella exclaimed.
"Ok ok calm down. Should we take Haadiya with us aswell?" Ayesha asked.
"Yeah, if you want to." Gabriella replied dryly.
"What's wrong?" Ayesha said.
"Well... nothing."
"Spill it." Ayesha said in a warning tone and glared at her best friend.
"Well ever since you have become friends with Haadiya you hardly spend time with me anymore and before I know of something she knows." Gabriella explained.Ayesha just stared at her.
"Im sorry. I know I shouldn't have said that. We can take her if you want." Gabriella said in a rather whisper tone.
"No no no. I'm sorry. Tomorrows plan. 1 pm. BFFs day out. Just me and you." She suddenly said.
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to sound rude." Gabriella said once again.
"And you didn't sound rude now let's go. I'll meet you tomorrow. Bye."
When Ayesha got home it was already 9 o'clock because she spent the evening in the library. Reading books. On WattPad.
She enetered the house and tried her best not to make any noise. Which she succeeded in except that one part when daaem creeped up on her. Then she went straight to bed. She felt lonely since Aabira was spending the night at her friends. But it wasn't long till she closed her eyes and sleep took over.
Ayesha beta hurry up. Ayesha was going to the mall and having a father daughter day with her dad. "Just a minute baba." She quickly grabbed her bag and phone and headed down the stairs. Baba! "How do I look?" Ayesha asked, her voice full of joy. She was wearing a pink and blue casual salwar kameez with golden earings and brown sandals. She had her hair in simple curls. She looked simple yet elegant.
"You look like a princess my dear." Her dad complimented.
"Baba, you also look handsome." She replied
He was wearing a dark blue shirt with the sleeves rolled up with matching grey jeans. He wore his watch and his brown leather shoes.
"Thank you beta. Now shall we go?" He asked and they both went out the door with Ayeshas hand through her dads arm.
They both went into the car and her dad started it. They were 20 mins into driving and right now they were on the motorway. "Go faster!" Ayesha exclaimed!"
"Aaaaaaaaaah!!!!!!!!!!!"
Crash!
Ayesha woke up dripping with sweat. What could this mean. She thought to herself. Ya Allah. Please keep us safe. She wiped away the tear she didn't know had made their way down. She looked at her clock. It read 5:30 am. There was no point in going back to bed as there was only half an hour till fajr. 2 days in a row. Something has to be wrong. She thought that after she came from shopping with Gabriella she would call her dad to see if everythings ok.
After fajr she got back into bed to try to get some more sleep since she didn't have uni today. She tried and tried but she just couldn't get herself to sleep so eventually she gave up and got out her laptop. She was tapping away on wattpad when suddenly she got a call. It was Unknown. A gasp managed to escape her lips and her eyes were as big as tennis balls.
She hesitantly picked it up and answered it. "H..he... hello." She gulped afraid of what she would hear but, nothing. All she could hear was deep deep breathing. "Look if this is some kind of joke it is not funny." Now she was serious. She hung up with frustration. And hugged her legs to her chest and silently screamed inside her heart. She didn't know why, but she kust couldn't get herself to tell her family.
As her screaming heart calmed down she finally got the sleep she awited for.
"Ouch. OMA. Sleeping like that was not a good idea." She said as she streached. Her neck was aching a lot.
"Eeeeee. 12:30pm. I only have 30 mins to get ready!" She jumped shaking the whole bed and ran to the toilet.
She quickly got dressed in a simple blue denim top paired with black tights. She also wore her white vans.

She quickly grabbed her keys and an apple and ran out the door. She got to the mall at 15 mins past 1. There by the malls entrance stood Gabriella tapping her foot and giving her death glares.
"I'm so sorry." Is the first thing that Ayesha said. "Please don't kill me."
A smile breaks across Gabriellas face. "Why are you smiling?" Ayesha asked utterly confused. "You should have seen your face. Now come one we can't waste anymore time." And with that said they started their shopping spree. Shopping was like a sport for Gabriella whereas Ayesha just picks the first thing that she gets attracted to.
Ayesha picked up a baby pink dress. It was really big and puffy. It had lot of detailing on the top and the bottom was all silk.
When she took out her phone to take a picture it beeped.
