Chapter Twelve

Maryam's POV

"As salamu Alaykum.....Good morning Mr Jawad, Mrs Jawad" Mrs Abdulazeez said once she and her husband entered the house.

"Wa alaykumu Salam....Good morning to you two" Dad replied smiling.

"Welcome to our humble home. Please, take a sit" Aunty said with a smile plastered on her face.

"Thank you"

Oh my God! He's so handsome. Now, I know where Kareem got his looks from. Though,he was so rude to me when we met and I'm not sure if I can even tolerate him for a minute after what had happened between us.

Last week ago
"Hello?". I said, more like a question through the phone.

" Is this Maryam?"

Rude much! I thought, as I took the phone away from my ear and stare at the unknown number confusedly.

"Erm.....yes, speaking....Please, who are am I unto?"
" Kareem. I mean, Mrs Abdulazeez's Son"

"Kareem?"

"I'm outside your house, come out". He ordered and hang up.

How dare he?! Do I look like a maid to him. I scoffed.

I put on my hijab and walk out. Thank God, aunty went out or else, I don't know what would have happened.

"As salamu Alaykum". I said as I move towards where he was standing.

"Maryam right?" He asked instead, not bothering to answer my greetings.

"I just said, As salamu Alaykum ". I said, emphasising on it.

"Whatever". He replied rudely again. " Look, I'm here to warn you about whatever deal you and my mom had discussed. To cut the story shut, I don't like you, I'm not attracted to you, I'm attracted to tall, sexy and good looking working class women,and you're not anywhere closer to my taste. I love someone else,so I will advise you decline whatever proposal mom had made to you. It's for the betterment of the both of us" He finished all in one breathe while I look at him like someone who has just grown two heads.

At first, when he started his rude statement, I had been thinking to call up Mrs Abdulazeez and tell her I wouldn't be able to do what she had asked me to but after seeing this poor guy standing right in front of me, I change my mind. I need to help him, he needs someone who'll lead him to the right path.

"It will be best,if you do as I had just said...be warned". He said and left.

I brought out my phone and dial his mother's number. "Hello dear....how are you doing?". She sounds happy.

"I'm fine Ma, good morning"

"Morning dear...is there a reason why you called?"

"I-"

" Wait a minute! Did you call to give me the good news? Sorry, I mean to give me your response?"

" Ma, actually I-"

"I'm so sorry Maryam, may be I'm too forward, I was just so eager to hear your positive reply"

"It's okay ma......I also called to give you my reply. I will marry your son but you need to have a word with my uncle"

"That's not a problem dear, I and my husband will be there as soon as we can. Thank you so much dear, I really do appreciate. You've made me the happiest mother on earth.
