HE IS MY CHAUFFEUR ✅

FIFTEEN

I said triple update but here's the fourth chapter for today.
****

It was a Thursday when Adeelah had to stay at school from morning till evening. Six to be precise. They had a lot of fixed lectures because examination was approaching.

She was reading her book and chattering in bits with Fatimah when Ameer's call came in. She wanted to ignore it at first but Fatimah picked the call for her. She eyed Fatimah and twisted her lips before she pinned the phone to her ears.

"I..." She wanted to lie. Ameer told her he was at the gate of her faculty wanting to see her. She didn't know what he wanted to tell her and she wasn't ready to meet him.

It wasn't her habit to lie.

"Okay I am coming." She said and cut the call.

"You're blushing!" Fatimah exclaimed.

"Yeah I am flushing whatever. Fatimah see to this, I am going on a date at school or what do you call it?" She asked, fishing out her mirror from her purse. Fatimah spread an amused smile.

Adeelah checking up herself? Interesting.

"Come escort me." Fatimah complied immediately. They walked side by side to the gate and there they found him sitting on the bonnet of his car.

"I am not sure if he can even recognize me. Let's see."

"Salam alaikum." They chorused. Ameer slipped his phone into his pocket and jumped down. Adeelah wished not to assess him but she woefully failed.

He was dressed in a an embroidered designed blue kaftan with a matching cap. He wasn't fair like her but he's not as dark as that. His nose was on the average, stopping just the way it should. His eyes were large, almost in the same proportion with hers. It then clicked on her to stop ogling so she did.

"Wa'alaikumus salam ladies." He smiled.

"Good evening," they greeted.

"How's studies?"

"Fine alhamdulillah." Fatimah answered.

Ameer smiled again.

"This must be Fatimah." He pointed at Fatimah. Adeelah looked at him. She didn't remember mentioning Fatimah to him, or did she? She couldn't say exactly. All in all, they talked just thrice how would he know Fatimah's name.

"Who told you her name is Fatimah? She is Zainab." She said, turning her face away so that he couldn't see the lies in her eyes.

Ameer laughed.

"Let's say I just guessed." Truth was, he asked around. It's been two months since they met and since recently he doesn't find peace within the walls of his house, he let himself busy. He didn't have the intention of being with a girl other than Hidaya but she's been giving him reasons to. Since he fell in love with her, he had never felt empty. Hidaya had given him so much love that it pampered him and he felt like he couldn't live without a woman's love. And suddenly just five months into the marriage she started drifting away. It's supposed to be their honeymoon phase still, but it was turning to something.

So he let himself busy with other stuff. Part of the stuff was the lady that intrigued him at first sight, Adeelah. He began to make investigation about her and he found out that she had never been in love with any man. And her only friend was Fatimah.

"Let me excuse you guys." Fatimah said, patting Adeelah's shoulder. Before Adeelah could say a word, she flashed away.

Ameer and Adeelah marched to some chairs they spotted and sat on different chairs as Adeelah suggested.
