Her Destiny

Part 3 -Confession

Eirah to her amusement saw amer looking and moving towards her.
Yusra's words were striking her mind
Eirah's POV
Was yusra right ?
Why is he stalking me !!
I don't know what came to my mind but ,I just quickly stood up from the bench ,and thought to walk away from there....
But as soon I stood up, and turned he was right in front of me looking at me .
My heart started beating at a faster rate ; but I don't know the reason why
I looked at him with my raised eyebrows ,and then I moved aside and lowered my gaze .
But then he again came infront of me ,Then I just started to walk away from him
He was following me ,I could hear his footsteps following mine
But I just thought to ignore him and walk
But then he called my name ,and I turned to him asking annoyingly what happened ,why are you following me ?
He then moved forward towards me again with a smile on his face
He then took a deep breath and sat on his knees
What is he going to do !!
I must run now,I should fast
But then he said me
"I love you Eirah"
Ohh my god he proposed me
Now I was feeling breathless when I heard that ,I couldn't believe my ears , because I never thought he could propose me
As the way he behaves in the class ,as a shy ,and introvert person .
He was staring at me , to see how would I react ,with his brown coloured eyes full of emotions , and a heavenly smile anyone could have fallen for that ,
He was handsome too btw,
Ya Allah , what am I thinking
No ,I can't say yes
It's haram how could I get into this
After all these though in my mind
I gave him a kind'a fierce look .
Are you out of your mind ,I yelled and quickly ran from him .
Farah was standing at a corner from where she must have seen
What happened just now
Not only farah ,I think many of them near us must have seen
I was feeling embarassed and at the same time I was angry on him..
         -------------------------

Amer's POV :
I don't know how I got the courage to tell her that I love him
which ,I was thinking to tell from past 3 years
My heart was beating fast ,and I was trembling with fear ,what If she declines?!!
But even though I proposed her ,
I know she'll be shocked by seeing this Avatar of mine .
She was speechless for a moment , and she really looked beautiful with that innocence on her face ,her beautiful grey eyes were sparkling in sunlight.
Her face was looking even more
radiant than always ,
But then suddenly, she got angry on me
I was really scared for a bit with her fiercing look
And eyes burning in anger
I suddenly stood up , but even I could utter a word she ran from there .
All people were seeing us but I really dont care , what most I care now is how to impress her ..
            ------------------------
What happened just there;
Is that guy your classmate?
Farah asked me curiously.

It will be a problem if she gets to know about it ,she'll create a ruckus out of it

Yeah ,he's my classmate, but let's go now we are already late
I said to farha ;
and we both sat in the car .
I was in deep thoughts , thinking about what just happened
Yusra was right about amer
But ,how could it be ,I have never seen him such bold ,
Yeah ,he is really a good person
I literally sank in his thoughts .
I didn't even know when we reached house ,until farah asked me to what are you thinking ?
We reached home ; now come out!

When I reached home ,I quickly freshened up myself ,and prayed asr
I prayed to Allah ,to ease my difficulties ,and help me to stay at bay from all haram (forbidden ) things ,I really have noone to share my emotions and feelings ,there was no one to guide me
But I know Alllah is always there for me
After praying eirah went to help her aunt
Noha aunt :You know your uncle is coming tomorrow ,
So I want you to clean the house
And later help me in preparing dinner.
Like always ,I was given the responsibility of household chores
Farah and faiza would always be either sitting and watching films , listening to music,or partying with their friends at their houses
They would never do any work
And I need to do even their work .
But ,now I am used to it ,and I think I should really be thankful to them ,as they are letting me stay in their house
And I don't want to burden them more ,
So I usually do all the work without any displeasure  .

After all the tiring work done

Noha Aunt: Why are you sitting idle ?
I don't understand you ,just wasting time sitfting idle .
Now , If you had done enough rest please prepare dinner....
I am leaving for parlour with faiza .
Be sure to food is ready , before we come .
She said this furiously and left
      ------------
Yeah ! she felt bad , but she really had no option , she don't have her parents to take care of her .
And she thinks
They are giving me a place to stay , and now I need to obey their orders .
        --------------
Eirah 's POV :
I was upset with all the things revolving around me
But still ,the thought that my uncle is coming tomorrow makes me happy
Because ,he really do care about me a lot .
I set up the table before they arrived
Then after dinner ,
I after dinner , I prayed to Allah about my problems and to guide me in right way

I slept weeping and remembering my parents .
Then I woke up in tahajjud ,
Read quran then fajr
Everybody in the house were sleeping, they very rarely wake up for fajr

Then after 8:00 everybody woke up and got ready for welcoming uncle

When uncle arrived everybody hugged him and were really happy
I was seeing this from the corner of a wall ,and I got emotional remembering my father
But, then uncle came to me and placed his hand on my head ,and said how are you my daughter.

He smiled looking at me and asked: Am I not your father?
And then I my face lighten up
And then I said ,yeah ,you are my father .
Then my cousins were Looking at the things ,uncle bought for them

After a while
Uncle called me and gave me a gold bracelet ,he bought for me
It was too nice,
My cousins farah and faiza were staring at me with jealousy in their eyes .

Aunt quickly took that bracelet from my hand and said
I will keep it inside locker ,I will give it to you when you"ll get married .
Uncle : No ,need of that ,she'll wear it now !
Aunt :What will she do wearing it now ,
At the time of marriage we only have to bear her expenses ,who will marry her ,she don't have her parents ,we need to give a lot o dowry ;so we need to save it frim now !!!
Uncle : please stop this now ,you know what are you saying?

  I became sad by listening this,
My eyes became heavy but I stopped my tears , and just left the place quietly .
 
Then I thought to call yusra to talk her regarding project
I dialled her number
Assalamualaikum ,yusra .
I said.
Walaikumassalam ,May I know who are you ?
A man said from another end ,in a calm tone
I was shocked ,who could it be
Have I dialled the wrong number???
No ,I dialled the right number
Then I spoke up
I ...I I am eirah yusra's friend,and want to talk to her
Ohhh ,eirah , It's you
I am zahir

He said and gave the phone to yusra
Ohh ,It was zahir
We were friends long back
When I used to go Yusra's home very frequently
Me ,yusra and zahir used to play together .
But It was when we were children, and it's been ages,I talked or met him .

Yusra: Assalamualaikum , Eirah
How are you
Eirah : Walaikumassalam, yusra
Why zahir picked up your phone
Yusra : Ahhh , actually eirah

And I got a new sim ,
