Fareedah's POV
8:30pm in the night

"Hey princess you still haven't told us how it went with Ashraf " Laila asked 

"Nothing special " I said softly while getting up from the bed slowly like a tortoise

"We chatted a little ,then he offered me his friendship " I declared sitting near the window

"Oh my! " Yusrah shouted excitedly

"I can't believe that Ashraf has asked for your friendship you lucky girl " said Yusrah

"What's lucky about it ? Hehehehe on top friendship with a characterless guy like him? Anyways, i rejected it" I said looking at the sky

"You what? " Laila asked furiously

"You must be joking " Yusrah added 

"I'm serious, what do I need from him? Why will I want a friendship with him? " I asked raising my right eye brow

"It's not like we really get along quite well, i always feel like beating him black and blue. And remember, he once told me he follows women not girls" i added

"Hello ma'am are you okay? " Laila asked waving her hands across my face

"Yeah" I answered without bothering to look at her

"Look i know Ashraf, trust me when i tell you i have never seen him been this humble before with any lady. " Yusrah declared

"Look at how he even answers our greeting , it's only you he cares to talk to" Yusrah concluded

"Look attachments just hurts at the end, let's say I accept his friendship and we become close eventually he will get married to someone leaving me" I concluded

"What if he marries you? " Yusrah asked 

"Can we please change the topic, marriage! Marriage! Marriage! Marriage! Enough please ,I just want to concentrate on my studies from now on " I exclaimed while jumping on the bed

"I know why you don't want to accept his friendship, it's because you are still in love with that dog Bilal ! " Laila said  furiously

"Laila! " I shouted raising my hand at her (I almost slapped her)

"Wow! So you now want to slap me because of Bilal ? " Laila asked throwing an unbelievable look at me

"Enough girls! Just go to bed" Yusrah announced

"Sorry, I didn't mean to raise my hand to you" I said bitterly while placing my head on the pillow

"It's okay, i know that it's not easy for you to move on ,but please calm down and give love a second chance " Laila said patting my back

"Alright " I said while managing to put on a smile

"The person we are talking about here is not in love with me, I don't know why you people are getting ideas into your heads" i declared

"Okay fine , we will stop but please give this friendship of a thing a try." Laila added

The next morning
9:00am
Ashraf's POV

"Hey man who are you looking for like this ?that you look so uneasy " Ahmad asked

"Well.... Errr where's she ? " I asked scratching my nape without completing my sentence

"Who?" Ahmad asked, as if he doesn't know who I'm referring to

"That cousin of yours " i declared

"You're impossible! Will you die if you call her by her name? You claim you want to get to know her more and yet you can't even call her by her name" Ahmad declared laughing hysterical
