The plane.
They were asleep all including Amal who wasn't sleeping earlier due to the shock given to her by Farhan. They didn't had enough sleep in England earlier that's why they are all sleeping on the plane. They have two hours left for them to land.
Ayman woke up and saw Amaani sleeping like a log, he stood up to go freshen up. Amaani woke up from her sleep and didn't see Ayman next to her, her heart skipped a beat at first before remembering that he might have gone to the toilet. She saw his phone left on the seat, she picked it up and surprisingly she saw her picture on his lockscreen, she unlocked the phone because she knows his pin and surprisingly she saw her picture on his homescreen, Amaani was bewildered after what she had seen in Ayman's phone but in order to prevent herself from too much thinking, she tried to forget everything and sighed.
Ayman came back and saw Amaani awake, their gaze met and they smiled at each other, Amaani batted her eyelashes and pouted, Ayman understood her nonverbal language which means that she's hungry, he called the stewardess and they were served food and drink. Ayman fed Amaani and Amaani ate well and later tried feeding Ayman too but he refused and said "I don't want to bother you, just rest so that the food you ate would digest properly". Amaani smiled and nodded her head in agreement.

Amal and Laila too were awake and they've finished eating. Laila noticed that Amal was back to normal, so she asked her what was wrong with her and Amal told her everything that happened between herself and Farhan. Laila laughed non-stop and said "he just wanted to surprise you and he did, well I don't blame you, you're very new to relationship that's why". Amal rolled her eyes at Laila and raised her hands playfully at her and Laila dodged it.
They talked about Nigeria and how eager they are to see their parents again.
"Amal I can't wait to go back to Nigeria so that you would introduce Farhan to our parents and then, things will start moving forward" Laila said.
"Ohh wow, I see how eager you are to get rid of me from the house so that you would have unlimited freedom and chill right? Well I would still visit you, it's not that i will be gone forever". Amal said jokingly.
The two laughed before they listen to the flight's attendant announcement.... "We have half an our to land".

They all were happy after the long time in the plane because they were extremely tired of sitting.

Nigeria.
Ihsan was told by Suhail that he would come in the evening, Ihsan was very happy to hear that Suhail will be coming and she couldn't wait to see him so she started preparing and deciding what to wear. She decided to wear an Abaya and quickly brought it out from the closet. She walked downstairs happily and full of energy which Maama realized how happy Ihsan is.

"MashaAllah my daughter has been happy since the day she met Suhail, I'm happy about that and may their bond never be separated, Ameen". Maama soliloquized.

Ihsan entered the kitchen and decided to prepare coffee and tea for Suhail.
Maama came in and smiled seeing how her daughter is preparing it with love. Maama tapped Ihsan on the shoulder, Ihsan turned, smiled at her mum and said "Maama, Suhail is coming over later and since he would come in tge evening, I decided to prepare coffee and tea for him so he could choose and if it's the two he wants, I would gladly serve him". Maama smiled and said "I thought as much Ihsan, I knew that Suhail is coming over,m because I see how elated you are. Ihsan why not fry some samosas for him?? There are frozen samosas in the freezer, fry it for him".
Ihsan smiled and did as her mum ordered, she brought out the frozen samosas from the freezer and got them ready for frying.
Mummy left Ihsan in the kitchen busy preparing food for her beloved. Ihsan continued working in the kitchen happily and full of love.

Maama entered Paapa's parlour and served him pap, while he was taking it, they continued talking about many things before she started talking about their daughter..
"Paapa didn't you notice that Ihsan has always been happy since when she met this guy?? She has changed and I'm happy about the change, she is becoming more educated both in religious, western and morally. Ya Allah thank you for bringing this man into our daughter's life, indeed he is the one we've been praying for her, thank you God, indeed you're the all-giver".
