Laila P.O.V
As we arrived home , I saw family members I haven't seen in a while, but importantly my grandfather was here
Laila: grandpa!!!
Grandpa: Laila
An 80 year old figure with  a smile as bright as the sun . He always understands me no matter how insane my dreams were
Laila: It's been so long since I saw you grandpa
Grandpa: it's only been an hour since we last talked Laila .
Laila: It felt likes months. Did mom tell you about what's happening?

Grandpa : When I was 5 years old, I remember, I caught a butterfly, and I liked all the patterns and color it had on it. My plan was to take care of it until we got old together. It died. I should've let it fly freely though it would hurt me but it was what's best for it.I know your dad only wants nothing but the best for you, though it is not what he wants but it is something he must do.

Laila: Never thought of it like that.
Grandpa: but tell me, how's college ?
Laila: oh it's college alright , I have been too  busy lately and this marriage thing  is not helping my stress level
Grandpa: haha you'll be fine .Let's go meet the family before they start looking for us.
Laila:ok.

Mom was in the kitchen whipping up her famous salad and aunt Lara was also here too helping
Laila: hey mom, hello aunt Lara
I said as I kissed them on the cheek
Mom: how was school?
Laila: fine, I took my Final test to get my masters today
Aunt Lara: Really ?! I hope you top the class
Laila : why should I top the class when I can top the whole college?We broke out in laughter from my remarks but we were interrupted by his presence
He came in with a smile that seems to never fade and bright grey golden eyes and black soft and curly hair to match it . He was too good to be true and I'm sure his personality would attest to my doubts about him .
Feeling flustered I left the kitchen and went straight to my room. 

How can one person be that fine?  if I had the power I'll make it haram.
