His Gorgeous Muslimah (completed) √

Chapter Eleven

MINAL'S POV
         Must I mention how the dinner went?  I had a splendid moment apart from the fact that Nasir kept tormenting me. He drove us to the venue and on our way,  he kept on blabbing and directing most of his questions at me.  Everyone started to tease me calling me Mrs Nasir. He even asked of my favorite color, food blah blah blah.
      "Do you like him? "Amma asked the next day after breakfast. "No I don't "
       "I'll suggest you give him a chance.  Forget the fact that he's too playful and can also be a jerk but he's one of the few responsible guys. " I sat still still trying to process what she said and she was busy reading out  comments of her recent post. 
       
  The next day, we went out on a date with Yasir which I never liked.  He's always staring at me and did I mention  the message he sent saying how beautiful I looked and he would want us back.  I quickly deleted it and felt like slapping him right in the face.
     He dropped us off after Maghrib and without saying a thank you,  I got in leaving them behind. Does he deserve my " thank you ". To be sincere,  I really enjoyed the date and he spent a hell lot of money.  Who cares? I actually thought the day was over before he took us to Sheraton hotel where we had dinner. 
    I was relaxed not until Yasir called me and I actually hung up on him.  He saw how hot I looked at the dinner and then decides he want me back. Trash. 
      Umar Faruk has  been calling me and I haven't been picking.  I wonder what he has to say. I started dozing off when my phone started ringing.  I should have switched it off.  A new number  Wow!  I sighed before picking. 
     Why would Nasir be calling me and why does he want to see me?  I didn't have  time to answer my questions when the bloody phone started to ring again.  Now it's Umar.  He has called like a twenty times this night.  I sat looking at the screen. Should I pick or not?  It stopped ringing and I promised to pick when next he calls.  I have to hear what he has to say though I know it's going to hurt me.
      I sighed closing my eyes while waiting for his called when my phone beeped.  A message from Umar!!
  "you don't pick my calls , but can pick that of your numerous boyfriends right?!   Anyways I just called to check on you. Bye and Don't reply me. "
      I read the message like a zillion times that night. I sat staring at my phone when Amma's head popped in.
"Come on Jiddah.  Come up let's have  some fun!"
  "I'm coming!  " I yelled after her.  She looks so happy and I wonder what's going on.
     "Why are you happy this night.  Is it the date or what? " I asked and she blushed dancing to the song she was playing on her phone.  Without a word,  I took out my phone and read UMAR'S message for the last time before deleting it.  Thank God he warned me not to reply.   "Can you guess what's making me happy? " she asked panting. "You know that's my weak spot.  What's it? "
    "Umar called me and we spoke for hours .  Like I can't believe it actually happened! " I stared at her as she spoke.  Don't screw things up Jiddah, I warned myself . "Umar? " I asked. I just wanted to be sure.  Ya Allah. I pray it isn't my Umar. Did I just say "my Umar"? If I did,  someone should please tell me when he became mine.
        "Are you kidding me?  I'm talking of Faruk.  My Faruk! ". Ya salam!  She's also claiming him.  When did he also become hers. 
      I listened attentively as she told me everything about them.  How close they were when they were kids and how they started developing feelings for each other to the extent that their families are aware and have all decided they will get married to each other. 
        "Wow! " That was all I was able to say after listening to this heartbreaking story. "Why are you so exited because he called you today then?.
      "He never calls me Jiddah.  I'm always the one calling and he's always too busy.  If that he gives me attention and makes me feel special,  I wouldn't be wasting my time with the likes of Yasir. But since he fails to do so,  I felt I wouldn't want to miss out. Do you know how much I love him Jiddah? "
         "Hmmmmm! It's so obvious you do Amma.  I will always pray for the best for you"
   It's already 3:00 am and I am still awake.  Umar Umar Umar Faruk.  He's all I've been thinking of. The first day I met him  and the last time I saw him which was the night before he traveled.  It's not my fault that I care but why should I.  I was told foolish to realize I'm not his type.
      Why all these thoughts Jiddah?  I asked my self.  Do I like him?  No I dont.  I can never fall for anyone like Umar.  He's too dangerous. This moment,  he treats you like a queen and the next moment,  like no one. Don't get me wrong.  I don't like Umar Faruk.  His first reaction towards me made me feel he likes me and now I'm proved wrong. Like Amma said earlier today,  "there is no time to waste.  We are girls and are getting older everyday so we shouldn't just depend on a guy and at the end of the day,  we get hurt. You should always have options so you would be able to pick the best at the end of the day "
I guess it's high time I give someone a chance before its too late. Who then deserves it?

A/N. What do you think of the decision Jiddah is about to make and who do you think deserves it?  Please don't hesitate to comment on your views and also vote.
