As a Muslim girl, marriage is one of Safia's biggest dreams. All her life she kept herself pure for her faith and her future husband. Although having never had experienced love, and occasionally doubting whether she will, Safia feels herself growing impatient being single. She then sends her family to search for 'the one.' Trusting her family, she decides to say yes to the first person her family finds for her. She believes she will get married and face all her problems with her husband by her side. Is it really as simple as that? Yusuf feels a void in his heart. He tries to deny it, but he knows his mother's not proud of him. He knows she wishes he could be a little more modern like his brother.

Seeing that his family were struggling to find him someone he likes, he decides to take matters into his own hands. But is he rushing into decisions without thinking?

Life for a teenager in this world is not exactly easy. Society is the main factor. Everywhere you look you are constantly being compared to people better than you. Those super skinny models with thigh gaps, celebrities with perfect skin, those flawless girls, and anyone who exceeds your opinion of yourself. Do you ever feel ugly, fat, worthless? Well I do. The girl, who has a smile on her face, is hiding a deep dark secret inside that no one knows about. Hey my names Emily. To most people who know me I am the most pleasant girl to be around. I am always happy, bubbly, and full of energy. To them, I am the girl with the perfect life, perfect friends, and perfect family. In reality I am a girl who learned how to fake emotions to show the world that everything is fine when deep inside it is not. When Harry Styles moves into my neighborhood my world spins around. Who could have known that he would bring some joy back into my life. I have never shared my true feelings with anyone till one night. That night changed my whole life, but the question is was it for the better or the worse?
