Hoor's pov

After I finish helping ibtisam to get ready we went downstairs and I help their mum in setting the dinning table .hoor dear go and call Adil and I will call the guest.ok aunt I said and went to call Adil, I saw a girl sitting next to him so close, she was talking to him and I can't hear what she's saying, she was wearing tight cloth,her hair is open and she is wearing 100 make up. I start to feel angry because she was so close to him, what wrong with me, why am I angry because a girl sitting next to him? Control hoor .um excuse me,Adil aunt said I should call you, food is ready.i said and quickly leave.

Hoor dear is there something wrong you are not eating ?,aunt asked.
No aunt nothing I will eat I said and start eating. aunt food is delicious mashallah I said, really?? both aunt,uncle and ibtisam said together like I have said something wrong.
Yes aunt!!! Okay brother you win since sis hoor said it delicious,ibtisam said, look dear Adil and ibtisam made a deal yesterday that Adil is going to cook for the party, because ibtisam cook yesterday and Adil said that the food is not delicious so she ask him to cook today and he have to accept. Aunt explain. You mean Adil cook all the food here? I ask suprise.yes dear aunt answer. Adil go ask the maid to bring some water aunt said. OK mum he reply and was about to turn and the maid was coming with tomato sauce, look out I shouted but it too late all the sauce was in his shirt. Oh my am so sorry sir I didn't know you are....it okay mum I will just go and change, Adil said and left.ibtisam was trying hard not to laugh but in vain ,ibti stop laughing, aunt ordered.

After I finish eating I checked the time and it was time to pray, I start to look for ibtisam so that she will show me the restroom,even I know it in her room but I forgot the way, after a while I saw her with her friends. Um hi ibti where is the restroom I need to pray?
Come I will show you, she said. No just tell me the directions and I will find it myself, OK after you climb the stairs turn to the right the last room go inside then you will find the restroom, she said. Okay thanks but why you smiling, sis hoor it's my birthday today so am happy she said, okay. And enjoy your self .she said. This girl is acting weird!!!

I was in the door I was doubting weather to knock or not. No need to knock since no one is inside. I open the door and enter then close it and start walking. There was three doors in the room so I don't know which one leads to the restroom, I was bought out of my thought due to sound of door I turn and freeze on my spot ,there was Adil half naked.he was muscular build. I quickly close my eyes.
Whatareyoudoinginsomeonesroom???
I yelled.
Pardon!!!!!!
What are you doing here? I ask still closing my eyes.
Um sorry I don't know what you saying but this is my room,you open your eyes and see for yourself. He reply.

Huh!!! What do you mean put on your cloth first, I said now covering my eyes with my hands. Okay he reply.

Okay now open your eyes. I have my cloth on.he said. Are you sure, I asked again. Yeah sure or do you want me to... no..no I said and slowly open my eyes. I saw a big picture of him near his bed and the room was black and white, and I remember ibtisam room was all in pink. Now I know why she was smiling and tell me to enjoy myself, this girl is up to something.

Sorry ibtisam tell me that this is her room and I didn't notice when I came inside because I was in a hurry to pray sorry. I apologize.

It okay she still don't know her room. Am sorry too. Come I will show you her room.

Okay thank you. I start walking and quickly I slip and lost my balance,I was waiting to fall but in vain.i slowly open my eyes to see what happened only to see I was in his strong arms,his hand on my back to save me from falling and my hands on his chest, I was looking into his beautiful grey eyes, he is so hand some. We were looking into each other eye, when I quickly spoke.

Um am sorry I missed my step and thank you.
Actually am sorry because you didn't miss step it was my shirt that make you to slip. He said.
I look down to see the shirt, it was the same shirt that the maid pour tomato sauce. I then remembered am still in his arms.
Um...can I. ...um...I mean. ..um..yo..ur.
I stammer. Um yeah sure sorry. He said  and quickly unwrapped his hand and he pick up his shirt.
So shall we? He asked and I nodded.

He show me the room and I quickly do my ablution and pray. I then went downstairs stairs and see the house is empty that means the guest have left and I will go now me too.
Here she is, come here dear aunt said. I went and sit next to her.
Hoor dear I want to ask you something? Aunt said.
Anything aunt go on ;I said and look at her. Um I want to ask you have someone proposed to you?immediately she said that me and Adil look at each other.
Yes aunty.whatttt????ibtisam and Adil    shouted. But I denied it am only 21 and I want to complete my studies first,but mom made me to promise her that any proposal that comes after my exam I will accept it,because she said every girl is safe when she gets married, and she will not allow me to work. So now that my exam are near I have to accept any proposal that comes. But aunt why you ask?? Yeah why she asked weather someone proposed. Nothing dear I just want to ask. Okay aunt I will be going mom must be waiting and there is school tomorrow. Okay dear good bye.
Hoor dear can I talk to you for some minute?aunt asked. Yeah sure. She then take me to her room.

Hoor dear,actually the reason I ask you if you're proposed is that, I want you to please marry my son Adil ,because since when I saw you I know you will be a good match for him and how ibtisam like you like a sister  i know you will take good care of them. She said crying, and I saw how you two are looking at each other, you two love each other and I can see it in your eyes. Hoor my son is a great man,he loves anyone that is close to him and he don't like seeing them cry.i know that you will look at them even if I die . she said crying.
I was shocked at first but when I saw her crying I quickly ran and hug her.
Aunt please stop crying, and what do you mean if you die?yes dear they are my hayaat (life )but I have to leave them because am suffering from blood cancer and I only have two month to die,so please hoor will you marry my son. And please look after all of them.please hoor will promise that you will marry Adil and please be his hayaat. Aunt why you trust me,what if he don't like me, what if I don't keep your promise, what if they all refuse me, I was now crying too.
No dear, he loves you and I can see it .please hoor you are the only one i trust now please hoor promise me please hoor am giving you my hayaat to you, I know my son he always want a wife like you, please hoor I will go on my knees if you want please just promise that you will look at them after my life,they're my everything, please hoor.she said crying and was going on her knees.

No..no..aunt please don't ,I pro.....mi..se;I promise you. But did they know that you suffering from cancer? I ask.

No they don't only their father and I asked him not to tell them. Look hoor am dying and allhamdullilah since you have accept my ammant .thank you.

It's okay aunt . please stop crying  I will get going mom must be waiting, I said and clean my face.

Hoor it's okay if we come next week to your house?She asked.
Yes dad will be back next week so you can.
And hoor promise that you will not tell anyone about this. Okay aunt promise. I said my Salam and quickly left.

After praying i change into my pj and hop into my bed and start thinking about aunt words it keeps coming. Hoor am dying please promise me. My phone start ringing and and see unknown number. I pick up.
Hello.
Hello hoor are you okay.
Yes I am okay. I reply. just want to ask bye then.
Um Adil do you ....never  mind good night I said and end the call.

Adil is going to propose to me next week. Do I love him? Is that why am angry when I saw that girl close to him?Am I ready to get married? Will he love and accept me? Will I be  able to keep the promise? What will school say about us being engaged? With so many questions I drift to sleep.
