Three days later

Alim's POV:

I can't deny it, I'm head over heels for Iklas. It's been three long days since I laid eyes on her, and the ache of her absence is unbearable. How I yearn to see that beautiful face of hers! It's driving me crazy that I can't even give her a call.

My heart feels heavy with longing; I just can't shake off this feeling. I miss everything about her – her smile, those mesmerizing eyes, everything. I find myself sighing as I sprawl on my bed, lost in her pictures. Each image captivated her beauty.
She's truly a sight to behold.

She has no idea I have these pictures of her. Oh, how I miss my little sister; she'd be pestering me right now to take her to Iklas' place if she were here.




Iklas POV:

Just got back from the hospital after my night shift. Missing Alim so much, it's only been three days, but I can't shake this feeling. I wonder if he's forgotten about me while I'm here busy missing him.

Managed to catch a short 3-hour nap before waking up around 2 am. Today, I'm not able to pray due to my period, so I decided to step out for some fresh air.

Mum called to check if I'm okay, and I assured her I was fine. I hopped into my car and headed straight to Sufi Mart.

Picked up some chocolate, Pringles, ice cream, and cake, paid for them, and headed out. Suddenly, I bumped into someone. Guess who? Fadila.

"Fadila, today is my lucky day," she exclaimed. I was puzzled and asked her to explain. Fadila warned me to steer clear of Alim, but I couldn't fathom why. Annoyed, I questioned her interference in my business with Alim.

Before I could finish, she slapped me. Without a second thought, I retaliated with a slap of my own. How dare she lay a hand on me?

"Did you just slap me?" she exclaimed, holding her cheek. I stood my ground, asking why she struck me first. Fuming, she claimed Alim would never be mine. I smiled confidently, walked away, leaving her words behind.

I know that he will never be mine I muttered under neath my breath as I sat down on my car.

"As I entered my room, I grabbed my phone. Without hesitation, I dialed Alim's number, but he rejected the call and called me instead. 'Yanxu karyaxata ma kawae kiranshi nayi,' i said.

'Hello, Alim,' I started before he could respond. 'You should let whoever Fadila is know that I'm not your girlfriend.' 'Why?' he asked incredulously.

I proceeded to explain the situation to him. 'What? How dare she!' he exclaimed. I just rolled my eyes and replied, 'You should inform her because she mistakenly thinks I'm your girlfriend, and you're just using me,' I sighed.

'Why do you think I'm using you?' he questioned. 'Because I know you don't love me,' I replied honestly, without hesitation.

'Listen, Iklas, I don't know how to say this, but I have to. I don't want to delay it any longer. The reason I told Fadila that you're my girlfriend is because I want you to be my girlfriend. I truly love you, Iklas,' he confessed sincerely.

I was left speechless, tears already streaming down my face. Did he really mean what he said? 'Iklas,' he called out again, 'I really mean it. You are my first love.' I was shocked and captivated.

'Iklas, say something, please.' 'Uhmmm,' was all I could manage. 'Can we please have dinner today?' he asked. 'Okay,' was all I could say.

'Thank you. I'll come to your house around 7:00 pm,' he said. 'Okay,' I replied as I hung up.

Did Alim truly love me? I wiped my tears away and started jumping up and down. 'Let me go and check what I'm going to wear.'"
