RIDWAN'S POV
I woke up today with a slight headache, but I am fine, am sure it will pass away eventually... I lay still for some time on my bed with my eyes fixed on the ceiling as I am laying on my back. Today is dad successful business party... I really don't feel like even attending, what will I be doing there any way, then my mind drifted to Layla , Perhaps I will see her there today... My lips curved into a smile "
Layla" I said to my self almost in a whisper, I think am really falling hard for this girl already, she has taken over my mind, i think of nothing but her, I can't even concentrate on anything in my studies but her, she captivates me in ways I can't explain, her shyness, simplicity, beauty and Aura intrigues me to the core. I hope to see her today... With that in my mind I got the energy to get off from bed and headed straight for the washroom. It didn't take long for me to finish bathing and got dressed, today I decided to wear a deep blue suit, well especially for the occasion since its a formal party , but the party will be held later on in the evening at the garden, so I decided to call and meet up with Ali and Farouk at the mall, to hang out for a while until when the party commence so we all go back over to my place.
I got to Ali's apartment after an hour drive from my place to his, farouk was already there when I walked in after we exchanged greetings and gave ourselves brotherly hugs we sat down to chat for a while then we all headed for the mall, it wasn't too far from Ali's apartment, we got to the mall half an hour later, we could have gotten here less than half an hour if not for the traffic we encountered on our way. We headed straight to the Pizza Hut after we got down from my car, we ordered two extra large size pizza plus soft drinks, we ate and laughed at the same time at couple of jokes Ali cracked.
"Hey guys it's already time for Zuhur, let's go find a place to pray " Farouk says to us after he checked his wrist watch for time .
"Okay man you guys should take the lead I will join you later after am done with my drink" I say to Farouk and Ali who have now stood up about to leave in order to go pray
"What! You won't stop being disobedient to your creator? What is more important than salat, prostrating your self before your maker ...come on man let's go pray " Farouk scolds me
"Hey what the hell man, what is your problem, I said I will follow later, Please! "
I hissed, confronting Farouk who also has anger written all over his face.
"Well.. I hear, Ali let's go " Farouk irritatingly voiced out to me as he shrugged his shoulders and shook his head.
They left and came back after 30 minutes
"You said you will follow up, but we didn't see you.. It even seems you had no intentions of coming with us to pray " Farouk confronted me as he sits down opposite me, and Ali is sitting beside him.
"Guys please, you people shouldn't start a fight, please act matured as you are besides we are in a public place " Ali reprimands the both of us raising his hands in the air.
"Well I won't start a fight if only he mind his God dam business and leave me alone" I said to Ali as i gave a glare at Farouk, I am beginning to get irritated again
"Hmm bro, i only mean peace with you, am only concerned as a brother in Islam, but any way I will continue to keep you in my prayer for Allah to guide you to His path " Farouk calmly says to me and sipped his drink.
"Thank you! " I rudely replied back ,
Ali then changed the topic and we all chat along and laughing at some point. When it was time for Asr , Farouk and Ali went to pray but i didn't till they came back.
After they came back, we ate the rest of the pizza then chat for a little while till it was time for us to head back to my dad's business party.
