Iklas's POVAfter checking for 10 minutes, I finally settled on the dress I'm going to wear.
"Oh my Allah, I can't believe I'm going on a date with Alim; it feels like a dream."
But what on earth am I going to tell Umma? I sit down, lost in thought about what I'm going to say.
After some contemplation, I devise a plan. I lie down and start chatting with my friends on IG and Snapchat.
Around 6:00, I take a shower and put on my maroon English gown, wrapping it with my milk veil. I glance at my face; only the cream is shining, so I apply some powder and lip gloss.
Exactly at 7:00, Alim calls me, mentioning he's waiting.
I enter my mom's room, whispering "Sallama," and she responds. I inform her that I'm hanging out with my friends. She replies, "OK, ba Matsala, but don't stay out too late!" I kiss her cheek, feeling guilty for not telling her the whole truth.
"I'm so sorry, Mom, but inshaAllah, I'll tell her the truth soon," I think to myself.
As I step out of the house, his perfume wafts through my nostrils. Ya Allah, I love his expensive designer scent.
Approaching his place, I spot him in a light blue kaftan, paired with a black cap and shoes. He... He... He looks absolutely breathtaking.
Alim's POV
Subhanallah, Iklas is truly stunning, and she didn't even need makeup to look this gorgeous. Her natural beauty is mesmerizing. I can't help but imagine her soft, pink lips against mine. Astaghfirullah, I quietly mutter to myself.
Feeling a bit nervous, I decide to greet her with a confident smile, though my heart is racing inside. "Thank you so much for coming," I manage to say as she smiles back. I open the car door for her, and we head to the restaurant.
I've reserved a quiet spot just for the two of us. We order our meals, drinks, and dessert, enjoying each other's company.
As I watch her delicately chew her food, I find myself unable to look away. Her every movement captivates me.

Alim's gaze seemed to unsettle her, causing her discomfort.
"You are beautiful," he whispered, catching her off guard and causing her to choke on her food. Alim quickly handed her a glass of water, saying "Subhanallah." She shyly looked down, feeling overwhelmed by his unexpected words.
After they finished their meal, Alim excused himself and left the table, leaving her alone in the dimly lit restaurant. She felt a wave of fear wash over her as she realized she was the only one there.
Suddenly, the lights went out, and she let out a loud scream, calling out for Alim in panic.
In an instant, the room was illuminated, revealing a message written in the light: "I Love you, Iklas."
She kept looking at the place,mesmerized with the view and thinking whether it was real or not.
As she turn around she saw alim standing in front of her with an anxious smile.
Alim doesn't know where to start so he take few steps close to her
Iklas I've been carrying this feeling for seven years, not realizing what it truly meant until now. Every moment we shared, every smile we exchanged, they all led me to this one truth,I've been in love with you all this time iklas! It took me years to see it clearly, but now I can't deny it any longer. You've always had my heart, even when I didn't fully understand it myself.
Every time I saw you with another guy iklas, a wave of anger and jealousy would wash over me. I didn't understand it then, but now I realize it was because deep down, I couldn't bear the thought of anyone else having the place in your heart that I longed for. It took me years to comprehend these emotions, but looking back, it's clear that my feelings for you run deeper than I ever imagined."
after those three days without seeing you, I had a major epiphany. It hit me like a ton of bricks - I'm head over heels in love with you. It took that absence to make me see how much you mean to me. I can't imagine my life without you in it. I had to tell you, no matter what!!!
Though I know I'm late but please.....Before he could finish Iklas shhhh him because of how his eyes turn red and so full of emotions with the look of him she knows that he's telling the truth he love her so much.
Alim I love you too
he look at her his eyes grow wider before he could talk again she started by saying.....
Since the first time I saw you, my heart skipped a beat. I tried to hide it, calling you 'the boy I admire,' but deep down, I was falling for you. Your smile, your laugh, everything about you captured my heart. And now, knowing that you feel the same way, I can't hold back anymore - I'm in love with you, completely and utterly. You mean everything to me."
I even have a diary of us together
After she poured out her heart, tears started streaming down her face, she just can't believe Alim loves her🥲
he reached into his pocket and gently passed her his handkerchief. The soft fabric absorbed her tears, a silent gesture of comfort and understanding in that moment of vulnerability and raw emotion. It was a simple act, yet it spoke volumes, conveying more than words ever could. The exchange of the handkerchief became a symbol of their connection, a bridge between their feelings unspoken but deeply felt.As she stood up, wiping away her tears with the handkerchief he had given her, she softly uttered, "I just want to go home."
Upon reaching Iklas's house, before she could open the car door, Alim stopped her with a heartfelt expression. "Iklas, thank you for accepting me, for loving me all these years. InshaAllah, you will never regret this day," he said with a warm smile, handing her a small gift.
Curious, she asked, "What is it?" Alim replied, "It's just a gift. Please accept it." She smiled gratefully and whispered, "Thank you." Alim insisted, "Don't thank me, Iklas. You deserve more." She smiled again, softly saying, "Bye bye," as she exited the car.
"Iklas, wait," Alim called out. She turned around, and he expressed, "I just want to say I love you." With those words, he drove off, leaving her with a wide, joyful smile
