Aisha.
We settled in to watch a serial, but my mind was racing with yesterday's events, Imran's return, dinner with us, and the proposal conversation. These people were messing with my head.

When I saw my father coming down the stairs, I said, "Dad, have a seat with us." I told him that since it was the night, he should spend some time with us because he is constantly busy at work during the day and needs to take a break.

"Dad started while eating homemade crisps with salt and chillies, and I turned on the sports channel for him. I want to talk to you about something, sweetie."

I assured him that he would come first no matter what he said, "Yea dad anything for you," and my mother simply grinned.

"What is going on?"My parents can be very secretive at times, and I will admit that I wondered.

"I want you to assist Imran in his business, but I am not even sure how you will respond.Something went wrong and he needs our help, Dad said nervously, as if I would say no. I know you have knowledge of accounts.

"I had some questions."

"Why Imran's company dad ?I am able to work from home or at your business."

He said, "I thought about it a lot, but I think it will be better if you start at his company tomorrow and help him out. My mom will be coming and checking out too."

Mum joined the conversation and she was aware of my circumstances. "Just agree, darling. It is your dad's idea since Imran also wanted someone trustworthy and your dad and I suggested him your name and you will not believe but he agreed instantly as if he wanted you to work with him since long," Mum said.

All efforts to avoid in vain.

How could Imran, who despises me deeply, put up with me in the same company when he agreed?

"Yes, dad, I agree to work with him," I said, and they both smiled.

Happiness is seeing your parents smile and knowing you are the reason for it.

"That is like my daughter," Mum said, and Dad simply narrowed his brow at me and Mum and said, "That is like our daughter."

I will just call him and tell him you have agreed, and I know you are both mature, and we have known each other since childhood, so we trust you both.

Mam patted my shoulders and came to sit next to me, saying, "Do not worry too much."

"I am not worrying,"

Taking my hand, Mum said, "I know you more than anyone else dear, now stop frowning and let us make dinner." I went with her.

We prepared chips and fish fingers. We have not eaten in a while, so I just missed having fish. Usually, we do barbecue and mostly This time, we decided to make something different, so it is chicken and stuff.

After my mother finished preparing the fish, we waited for the call to prayer, known as maghrib adhan, and in the interim, we decided to pray the Qur'an, thank God. I fried chips as we fried them twice and baked some of them.

After dinner:
We spent some time watching news about global events while we sat down. Later, when my parents went to their room, I made the decision to go to bed as well, since tomorrow is my first day of work.

Despite the closeness of our families, I have never visited his office in my life. May Allah assist me.

I changed into my nightgown and took out my hairpin since I usually sleep with my hair hanging loose because it is supposed to allow air to circulate through it.turned on a green lightbulb and grabbed two pillows. I have no idea whence this double-pillow sleeping habit originated.
Thank God, I did my ablution before going to bed after arranging my pillows and getting out my soft blue duvet. After that, I checked my messages.

I had about ten snaps wow because of the streak, where we message each other at least once or twice a day. I do not use the other applications very often, but one message with an unknown number caught my attention.

"Should I open or not?"

Because I was curious and there was a message, I chose to open.

******
Unknown: See you soon.

I know the person must have seen the two blue ticks because I ignored the message that I saw.

Unknown: So you will even ignore my messages?

I simply chose to respond to whoever it was.

"Sorry, I do not talk to strangers." I snapped back, asking who had my number. harldy anyone has it. Nowadays, it is difficult to trust anyone.

Unknown: I know you are wondering, so shall I tell you or not? Alright, so let me introduce myself. My name is.

Yeah? I answered.

"What does he think of himself?"He seems like a guy to me.

Unknown: okay okay I am Imran and be at work by eight am sharp.
I will be busy with meetings, so I need your help and will see you soon. Some of my staff members turned out to be greedy and helped another company so they benefited more because the company was my rival and there are some accounting errors.

I asked him, "How did you get my number?"
****

Did he go offline? That jerk, could he really not ask nicely? 😏
