'I hate him!'. I exhaled.Astagfirullah! (I seek forgiveness from God) I never in my wildest dream ever thought I'll say that I hate a creation of Allah. But he makes me want to say even more worser things to him! That infuriating bulky idiot. How dare he call me a rag-headed shortie. I haven't in my whole life been this angry, why haven't I been so angry? Cause I had no reason to be this angry, not even when my little cousin stole MY kitkat and had the audacity to rub it in MY New Yellow Maxi dress I had fallen in love with! Mind you, kitkat and yellow dresses are my heaven. Okay, now you might be wondering why those words had riled me up this bad. Here's the reason why I'm pissed with certain someone.

'Oh God, help me! Messed up, the closet isn't what I'm planning on facing this morning.' I sulked as I brushed my teeth, I just love using miswak for two reasons, 1. It's a sunnah, duh! 2. I love the natural herbal taste to it. Unlike the plastic toothbrush, which is so plastic, you know what I mean, right? No? You Poor souls are missing out things in life. Thinking of toothbrushes, why is it called a toothbrush when we aren't going to brush only a tooth at a time, right? It should be teeth brush instead. I snickered at my own thought of how I was debating something useless to me, also something that is making me late for breakfast. Oh, my Allah! Breakfast! Dad's going to be really fuming of I don't go down for breakfast in less than 10 minutes. I quickly jumped into the shower for a quick wash. And it turned out my shower wasn't quick enough because once I was back in my room, I heard my alarm going off for the second time, meaning I'm in trouble. Yes, I have an alarm to warn me of breakfast time. It's basically the most important meal that my parents take seriously. Well, one of my parents takes seriously, My Dada.
I soon ran to my walk-in closet and stood surprised for a minute before I again remembered I'm pretty late for breakfast. And grabbed the first thing my hand could reach. A yellow fluffy sweater and blue jeans and a white shoe and a teal coloured hijab. Making a mental note to thank Mum for fixing my my messed up closet. I dressed up and grabbed my make-up kit( it only had a concealer, eye liner, kajal and chapstick) I'll have to do my make up while Dada drives me to work, then ran down to have my breakfast plus a warning I will be getting about almost being late and keeping the food await.
"At last, the princess has decided to grace us with her presence." My mum said sarcastically. I gave her a cheeky smile and sent Dada an apologetic smile and greeted both of them. "Assalamu alaikum(May peace be upon you) Mumma and Dada, sorry I'm late I lost track of time in the shower. And sabah khair (good morning)."
" Walaikum salam(May peace be upon you too) bug and sabah khair to you too. Don't make it a habit. Being late isn't a good habit at all." Said Dada.
"I'll make sure I that won't repeat it again. In sha Allah (if God wills)" saying that we digged into our breakfast, of course not without the dua (short prayer), " Bismillah(In the name of God)." We all said.My mum's pancakes were to die for! They were sooo heavenly that it took you to heaven and back. And having it for breakfast makes the day feel even better for the new start.
Soon after breakfast was over Alhamdulillah(All thanks to God), Dad's phone started ringing, which meant he is going to be late for his meeting with the new investors, so both Mum and Dad hurriedly got ready to leave for the meeting while I cleared the dining table and took care of the dishes.Then all three of us left home,as my brother, Zakariya, had already gone to school. My parents were going to drop me off at work today before they went on their way. I still didn't pass my driving test, so that means no car yet. I just don't function under intense stares, So Every time I try to take the the lesson I get nervous and mess up whatever being told by the driving instructor, hence I'm on my way to get myself give it a try for the hundredth time before starting work today, cause I don't give up easily.
