Ayath pov:
I left work at 4pm, I work from 8 to 4, sometimes it differs , when I have more surgeries or emergencies or when I go to work early . I drive to the organization office, where I have managers and staff to handle things even when I'm not there but I check in everyday to make sure everything's going smoothly. I meet Sarah ,my childhood best friend, who works here with a very good salary and btw everyone who works here gets their salary because they work hard and also that we have many sponsors and contributions, some being my dad, Ahmed's dad and also me. I go inside help everyone out whenever they need help , sign a few documents and then hold a meeting and I'm done alhamdulilah. I fill in Sarah with the Ahmed matter while walking out of the office when I check my phone to find out 4 missed calls from my mum, I'm dead for sure. I checked the time and it was 8pm, oh god I'm screwed but thank Allah my office is only 5 minutes drive away from home and if I drive a little faster maybe 3. I drove home before my mum calls me again. I park my car in the garage and walk out to the main entrance to find a car honking it's horn, oh shit Sherlock I ran inside only to find my sweet mother glaring at me, I think she thought I did it in purpose."I'm really sorry, I lost track of time " I told her apologetically "go upstairs and get dressed quick, it's not nice to keep guests waiting' she commanded while I nod my head and ran to my room to find a beautiful dress and hijab lying on the bed. I quickly changed and prayed and before I head down I took a picture of myself and asked my sis in law how I looked.
Conversation :
Ayath: how do I look ?
Haaya: why are asking me all of sudden?
(I'm a person who doesn't care how I look, I need to dress modestly and it's done)
Ayath: maybe because I didn't pick the dress
Haaya: you do know, if you didn't like it in the first place, you wouldn't have worn it and it maybe because Ahmed's here?
Ayath: seriously 🙄
Haaya: yes very much and Ammi wants you down now!
End of conversation
I do another check of myself to make sure I have everything covered up and head downstairs. Ahmed's family is a family that everyone in my family is very familiar with, we meet up every twice a month, so I know his family really well but I feel really awkward walking towards the seat next to my mum."Assalamualiakum", "Waliakumsalam" everyone else replies. Ahmed has a brother and 2 sisters, a 19 year old brother whose name is Taahir and sisters whose names are Maryam,25 years old and is married to my cousin Rashid and they have 2 bundle of joys, Laila,4years and Hakeem,2years and the 19 year old whose twin Aidah. Hakeem got up from his mums lap and rushed towards me, I kissed his forehead while settling him on my lap, Hakeem is diagnosed with bronchitis and Alhamduliah his recovery is fast and I'm his doctor so he is very close to me. Everyone in the living room talks about how it would be a blast if this wedding happens and random stuff when Aidah takes a seat beside and asks me "hey! Your going to be my sister in law " I added a yet i didn't want too much of hope to build up among our families.
Ahmed pov:
I said yes!, I can't believe it would be that easy and it would make my family so happy. I got to know that we are invited for dinner at uncle Khan's house. Im so nervous and I have no idea why, hopefully everything goes well. I leave for work after bidding goodbye to everyone and reach work. Work is really hectic, even more when you are the CEO, I hate it when girls stare at me like they are having sexual relationships with me using their eyes, at work I'm a beast so no one takes advantage of me. I walk inside my cabin and start looking through the documents when my best friend ,Adam walks in or should I say breaks in to my cabin."heard some good news from uncle Hussein", "about?" I ask him even though I'm 90 percent sure I know what it is,"you getting hitched" ,"I like to call it completing half of my deen" I defend "anyways who's she?" He questions, "not someone you know of ","come on man everyone you know is someone I know to, maybe someone is being protective over their fiancé ", "nevermind"I huff and continue working,Adam is jobless and when ever he feels he wants wreck my day he's there to wreck it. My personal assistant walks in with a file about the funds that we give to Ayath's organization, I go through the whole file and get it back to her and smile at her generosity and love for people suffering around the world. I get a call from Hamza, I answer the call hoping he would say something good.
Conversation:
Ahmed: Assalamualiakum.
Hamza: waliakumsalam bro, how are you doing ?
Ahmed: good Alhamdulilah, you ?
Hamza: Alhamdulilah great, I just wanted to tell you that Ayath wanted to talk to you before she says anything.
Ahmed:sure I don't mind maybe tonight ?
Hamza: i told her that as well just wanted to make sure you were ready to, in case you wanted to ask something from her, hey bro,you hurt her ,your dead.
Ahmed: of course I know that I'll be dead meat if I mess with her , tonight it is then. Assalamualikaum.
Hamza: waliakumsalam and don't dream too much about her ,Adam sent me picture of you smiling at her organization file.
And he hung up. "Adam!" I look around to find him gone.
I leave work at 7 cause my mum keeps calling me to get back home so we don't go there late. I go home change and then we leave to uncle Khan's house ,Aidah, Maryam,Rashid and their kids come along with me while Dad,Mum ,Taahir and my grandparents are in the other car. Hakeem keeps on talking about his Dr Ayath the whole ride about how she's sweet and nice and to add it up my sister starts telling him about how Ayath maybe his future aunt but to my dismay Hakeem says he doesn't want me to marry her, I asked him why curiously and he says it's because he wants to marry her to which we all try hard not to laugh while Maryam makes him understand that he's to young for that. I honk the horn of my car outside their house not before I noticed a girl running up the stairs to the main entrance.we go in and settle down in the men's living room while girls walk towards the ladies living room. I'm really nervous right now, after talking for while Hamza texts me to come to the balcony on that floor. I walk towards the balcony and I see a girl standing next to Hamza and I could here my heart beating fast.
