(Ayath POV)

"I said No!" I snapped at my mother, I can't believe I snapped at my mother because of a guy.

So let me explain ,My dear grandpa decided it was best for me to marry his best friend's grandson.

Like seriously,Why couldn't my mum marry his best friend's son instead?. This conversation with them was getting on my nerves. Im too young for marriage I'm just what 20 years old! My grandfather thought this would be the best last wish before he dies, why ? Oh it's because he wants to make sure both the families stay together even after he dies, smart idea right ? Any ways back to reality.

"You do know we want what is best for you?" My dad tried convincing me. So here's something you don't know about me, I'm a person who would do anything for my parents and grandparents even if it hurts me to do so. I always hide my feelings and put a smile on my face even if the decision is going to haunt for the rest of  my  life, according to me , our parents have sacrificed so much and has gone through so much for us; so we can live happily and full of joy.so the least I could do to them is not disappoint them.

"Can you guys let me think about it?" I asked them and my grandpa decided to answer "Ofcourse Ayath we won't force you to marry him, the decision is all yours but do remember that if you say yes, I would be the happiest man alive". See this is what I told about they just know how to make me do things. I walked out of the living room and headed to my room, where my annoying cousins were eagerly waiting for me to tell them what just happened but I'm sure they were eavesdropping . "So what happened?" Ayesha the 16 year old asked she is the youngest of all the cousins,"shut up Ayesha"her sister Aaliyah said "Ayath say yes any girl would be foolish enough to turn him down, he is so handsome and so nice , we can't you just say yes?" Ayesha asked , now I was pretty sure that they were all eavesdropping , "I have got an idea , instead of me you can marry him Ayesha, I mean you like him so you can have him , i have no objection ". Everyone looked at me wide eyed "hey I'm to young for him and I think him as my older brother " Ayesha justified , "can you guys just let me be alone for a while? " I asked them and they all said of course and made sure they group hugged me before they left and I turned to the only person who can help me 'My Maker'. I prayed and asked for help and guidance, I didn't know  when my tears ran out but I did know that I feel into a deep slumber when someone knocked on my door.

(Ahmed POV)

When my grandfather told us about the decision he has made with grandfather Lathif (Ayath's grandfather) I was over the moon, to be honest I always had a crush on Ayath from the time she was a kid , she was the girl who stood out among her other cousins, she was feisty and kind. I fell more for her when she was a teenager she always carries Islam with pride and beauty. It's been 5 years since I last saw her ,she went abroad to study and I was given my father company to take over hence I was to busy I never got to see her when she visits. I asked them for time cause just because I like her doesn't mean she is the one for me. I prayed to Allah and asked him to help me with the decision .
