Bleeding Of Velvet Leaf
A young Muslim girl, raised with dreams of love, peace, and a simple life, finds herself stepping into the world of an arranged cousin marriage. At first, it feels like a duty more than a choice-family expectations weigh heavy, traditions tie her down, and her voice feels too small to be heard. Marriage, she thought, would bring security and companionship, but instead, she faces struggles she never imagined. Balancing her identity as a woman, a wife, and a believer, she must navigate the silence of being misunderstood, the challenges of adjusting to a new household, and the loneliness of fighting battles in her heart while keeping a smile on her face. Her faith becomes her anchor, teaching her patience (sabr), trust in Allah (tawakkul), and the strength to rise from every fall. This is not just a story of hardship-it's a story of resilience. A story of how a girl transforms into a woman who learns that marriage isn't only about compromise, but also about finding her voice, her strength, and her path to closeness with Allah.

Their True Love✔️
"Go straight at the end of right side you will see a red and black car, at the back of the car you will find something." It was from that unknown number. I slowly walked straight and when I saw red and black car i went toward the car's back with slow steps. When I reached there no one was there not even anything. Then i heard a voice, after hearing it I stood frozen on my spot. I started shivering hearing that voice. I gulped and slowly turned around, my eyes widened with shock and fear seeing that person. "Hello my princess! Long time no see," That person said with a smirk on their face. No no no this can't happen. No this cannot happen. He can't be here. He can't come back. My whole body was shivering seeing him standing in front of me. I felt tears one by one slip from my eyes. "Missed me didn't you? Even I missed you alot princess," He said taking a step closer to me. "No, No do-don't co-come near m-me," I said shivering. ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Started: 27/May/2020 Ended: 28/June/2021.Complete

I promise there's more! I've put all my thought and skills to put before the wattpad audience the most misunderstood fact about muslim women in a marriage. The fact that it all ends with abuse and oppression on the women which leads to thinking that muslim women are being oppressed and enslaved in their religion. Afaaf Hameed never wanted a marriage because for all she knew, 'all men are the same', particularity Muslim men. They are all chauvinists. To her, romance, love, feeling butterflies in stomach was all fantasy in today's world and it only existed in the era of Prophets. But what happens when she has forced herself to marry Imran Ameen Khan for the sake of her mum. On the other hand, Imran is head over heels about being married to Afaaf. He has never met a woman more beautiful than her. He tries his best to let romance blossom between them. But little does he know that his beautiful wife has no feelings for him. What will the future of these two hold when their lives are tied together? Will they make it to 'Happily Ever After' or will their hearts split up? ***Not Edited***Complete

I was speechless, my mind has betrayed me, I just stood there starring at him as he ran away, I couldn't even ask him to stop or come back for me, he just ran away, like a prey from a predator, and I felt guilty about it, he was my victim.
