Simply close your eyes, take a deep breath, and say, "Ya Allah, I know this is your plan," whenever you are unsure of the purpose of something that is happening in your life. Please help me through it."

Yumna:
I was staring at the person in front of me because I thought he was unaware that it is against the law to stare. He was staring at me, though, and I realized I should turn away, so I did. But before I could, I saw the smirk on his face. Is there any way this guy can get any worse?

"You two stop you'r staring contest and just come and cut another cake," Imran said, giving Ahad a hug. This brought us all together.

Thanking everyone, I cut the cake.

"Will you not ask whose idea it was?" my aunt hugged Imran and Ahad.

He has grown very close to my family, and I thought, Did I mention that Ahad had everything set up so they could talk about the wedding date and decide in two weeks? Oh my God, that is too soon.

"I believe Imran's."They looked at me as if I had made a mistake when I guessed.

"What?"In response to my whispers, Imran simply gestured to Ahad with his finger.

"Ahad took longer to talk to me and about drinking coffee together, so I do not doubt him," I said, thanking him as my uncle went over their entire plan with me. They sent me to his office to divert my attention so they could set everything up at home.

I told Aisha to stay back so we could have a girls' sleepover, but everyone else left for their homes at around ten o'clock.

Do you think Ahad and Imran agreed? Furthermore, since it was the weekend, Ahad invited Imran to join their school pals at his place.

I caught Aisha glancing at my brother before they left, but I did not follow up to find out if she had anything more to share.

Uncle and aunty had their own Saturday gatherings, and they came home a little late, so we decided why not us?

......

"Hey did you see this actor in starplus he got new role of an angry young guy,"Aisha told me while stalking pictures.

She loves those roles where by guys are either arrogant, businessman and they meet special someone and other stuffs....too much into books and fairytales.

"I have stopped watching too much indian serials since they like to drag story for years and years but since you are saying the actor is good then we will watch it together but from episode one," I told her while checking out some islamic quotes because I don't like to watch from middle and opening youtube to watch I hope wifi is fast today.

"Hey check it out this one he's just amazing," she said while taking her phone and showing me some pictures of some other guy he used to be in one of serial.

Astagfirullah we have been checking out guys but she says better to check them out than the real ones..ya Allah this girl

"Aisha Aisha"!!

She finally looked at me.

"You just zoned out on me?like seriously?" I asked her prerending to be annoyed but I knew what she was staring at.

"Ahem ahem, so now instead of staring at actors pictures you have been staring at my brother's picture?" I stared at picture as this was the one when we were around 15 years of age, he was so cute and chubby infact till now.

"Nothing I was staring at your picture," she told me trying to defend herself.

I didn't push her much as after that we made some maccaroni and some sandwiches, the simplest dishes.

We prayed Isha after dinner as sometimes I prefer to pray before dinner because of laziness astagfirullah.

We watched a movie till around 4.00am and prayed tahajjud then slept since alittle bit of sleep is important.

I don' know what Ahad and Imran must be doing now?

Nah I must not be thinking of him.
**********
Ahad:
We invited Hamza and Yakub to join us just like we did in high school, but once we finished, everyone left and we all went on to pursue our dreams...highschool days were the best, and we miss them, but whenever they come around, we keep a gathering like today.

We were all sitting across from each other, watching a movie, which I rarely watch, but how did I get so lucky to have these amazing friends in my life?Imran was occasionally zoning out, and I had no idea what was wrong with him.

Yakub and Hamza made constant jokes about his impending marriage and seriousness.

Yakub is a reserved type who keeps to himself and has built a wall around himself because he had a difficult past. With us, though, he is a completely different person, and he has even dared us to keep his other personality a secret from others.

Even though it is just tabloid news and these reporters are adding their own words, they hardly know what a person goes through and they just spread news everywhere. Hamza is that type of person—rude, haughty, and self-centered—exactly how they described me.

I can tell Imran likes someone, though maybe he is just waiting for the right moment.

"What must she be doing now?"A thought ran through my mind.

Is marrying her the right decision for me to make?I am aware that I have told her about my past, and my parents are content, but still.
