Getting To Know Her Better.

Azaan's Pov

It has been almost a year since I met her. Each time we hang out to study I began having feelings for her.

Was it love? Or maybe something else?

All I know is that I want her in my life, as my wife and the future mother of our children.

In shaa Allah.

I know that many people will say that it's too soon to tell if you feel love for the person you met almost a year ago.

But to me, I can't stop these feelings for her. I need to tell her and get her to agree to marry me. We could be together and still make it even if we are still students.

"Faryal, can we talk?" I ask her.

She nodded her head and waited for me to speak. I then gestured for her to follow me to take a seat on the bench and she did.

We both took a seat and I took a deep breath.

"I am going to tell you a lot of things but I need you to not interrupt me until I am done saying them", I tell her.

"Okay".

"I have fallen in love with you and I want to marry you. But if you aren't ready for it then we will wait as long as you want. But I want to make our relationship Halaal. I love you and I want you to be with me in the future. In shaa Allah", I explain to her.

I waited for her to say something.

"I like you but will you give me some time to think about it? I don't want to rush into this and I also want to talk to my parents first before deciding anything between us. My answer is not a yes or a no. It's a maybe", she says smiling at me.

That might not be the answer I was hoping for but it was better than nothing.

"Okay, I will wait for you".

In the coming days, I could feel that Fahd was being distant from me. I didn't know what I did or what I didn't do to him.

Being his best friend I was worried about him. But I also knew that when he will need I will be there for him.

He was like one of my brothers; I love and care for him just like Azhar.

But as Mamma always tells me; "If someone is hiding something from you, then don't pressure them. Just let them come at their own time to tell you what they are hiding. If they trust you enough that is".

As always she was right about it.

Unknown Pov.

"We have to be careful about where we meet and to keep this a secret as long as we can before he finds out", I tell them.

I know that when the secret comes out, he is the one that will suffer. But it had to be done.

I love her and she is and will always be mine no matter who says otherwise.

"But what if someone tells him about us, then?", they ask me.

"Then let them say what they know to him but he won't believe them. And that's for sure. I will make sure of it," I tell them.

Lying is a sin but we all are sinners.

As they walked away, I couldn't help but smirk knowing that I would win and not him this time.

I will win this time and not you and this time I get something of yours. Or should I say, someone?

Saira's Pov.

Have ever wished you stayed away from drama? I do right now wish that I could turn back the time before I almost ruined a relationship.

"Saira, what are you saying? Are you sure of what you saw?", Iman asks me.

I had explained to her what I saw but knew that she would have questions about whether what I saw was real.

"I know that it's hard to believe but Allah knows best, Iman. I believe that He will show us the truth one way or another", I tell her calming her down.

I didn't want to lose her friendship as she means so much to me. Even though I am older than her.

I wish that I could not see what I just witnessed. But Allah has His plans and His plans are always the best.

"Iman is right about staying away from things that I don't want to see because the same things that will hurt the person I love. And that person is Azaan", I tell myself.
