Arina's POV

"Imaad! Wake up, baby! School time!" I try to wake my 5 years old son for school

"mmm" his reply and he changes sides

He is just like his dad when it comes to sleep and waking up.

I let a small laugh and pick him up of the bed and take him to the bathroom.

"C'mon go take a quick shower!" 

I help him get ready for school as my daily morning routine and descend downstairs into the kitchen to make him breakfast.

Adam already left for office a while ago as he had a meeting.

As Imaad finishes his breakfast, I grab his bag and call the maid to take him to his School Bus that will be here anytime.

"Okay Imaad! Have a good day, baby! Don't trouble you teachers okay?" I tell him seeing how naughty and troublesome he can be.

"Salaam Mama!" He replies and I plant a kiss on his forehead.

Once they are gone, I enter Inaya's room and I see the 2 years old already awake.

"My little Princess is awake!" I smile at her

"mumma" she replies happily while playing with her bed toys

I pick her up and give her a warm bath before dressing her up in one of her cute outfits.

I then take her with me to the kitchen and place her in her high chair. I feed her the breakfast.

Till now the maid is done with cleaning so I tell her to go as I love doing the house chorus for my family but I need the maid for cleaning and dropping him off to the bus stop as that is hard with Inaya.

Anyways, After feeding Inaya her breakfast, I take her to my study/office opposite our bedroom.

After my graduating, Adam asked me if I wanted to work but at that time I wanted to take a break and then later I couldn't work because of Imaad.

So I decided to work at home instead of going out to work that way I could take care of my son , husband and the house along with working.

I started writing books and published two till now that Alhumdullilah were major successes and I am so happy and thank full to Allah.

I even got an award last year at a Author's award that was hosted in the UK where I got to meet some of the best authors  from around the world including J.K Rowling and James Patterson.

Alhumdullilah. All thanks to Allah for the happiness in my life.

The best memory was going for Hajj with my family when Inayah was few months old.

It was very hard to do Hajj with a baby and a toddler, Also the weather of Saudi Arabia was unbearable but my whole family was there to help me with it especially Adam and Allah helped us, made it easy for us.

I had the best time of my life.

Anyways, I place  Inaya in her little play area in my study and turn on my laptop.

After working for hours, I hear  my phone's Alarm indicating it is time to pick Imaad up from the bus stop.

I shut my laptop down and hear my phone ringing.

"Asalam Alaikum, Adam!"

"Waalikum Asalam! How is my Queen and my princess?"

"Alhumdullilah we both are very well! How are you?" I say with a smile

"Alhumdullilah I am good but very tired! had 3 meetings in the last 3 hours!"

"Aww That's a lot! Insha Allah come home early so that you can get proper rest! I have to go get Imaad now!"

"Okay sure! Allah Hafiz"

"Allah Hafiz"

Inaya holds my hand and we descend downstairs where I place her in her stroller and push it towards the Elevator.

Soon, We are on our way out the building, I see Imaad's bus stop and he comes out before waving at his friends.

"Salaam Mama!" 

"Waalikum Asalam! How was your day?" I ask while entering the building

"Amazing! I made a rocket today!"

"Masha Allah!  You are my smart boy!" I say and mess his hair

"Mamaaa!" He frowns making me laugh

As we enter the Elevator and the doors are about to close, someone stops them and reopens revealing Alina.

"Linaaaa!" Both of my children screams excitedly 

"My babies!!!" She screams with them 

I laugh at the scene, she is a mother now but still acts like kids.

We greet each other and I grab the little cutie Jabir.

Masha Allah he is so cute and he is just a few months older than our Inaya.

"Salaam Jabir! How is my cutie?" 

"Headache!" Alina answers making me laugh

"Why?"

"Don't ask! He is a trouble!"

"Just like his older brother Imaad!" I say with a laugh while exiting the Elevator

We soon enter our apartment and the three kids run to their  small play area.

Me and Alina proceed towards the kitchen to prepare a quick lunch and then we both devour over it while feeding the kids.

She stays till evening watching a movie, our old videos and reminiscing over the good old times.

She then leaves as it is time for her to go home and I start preparing Dinner.

Soon Adam arrives.

"Asalam Alaikum Everyone!"

"Waalikum Asalam!" I say and get him a glass of water 

"Thank you!" he says and plants a kiss on my forehead 

"Daddyyyy!" both the hyper kids run to their father

He bends down and hugs them before giving them their treats.

While I am in the kitchen preparing dinner, Adam is having the Quran session with the kids.

Soon, We start our dinner before proceeding towards the prayer room for Isha prayer.

As we are done with the prayer, Adam stays in the prayer room reciting Quran whereas I take the kids to their rooms and get them ready for bed.

I tuck them into their beds and once happy with them both sleeping, I stroll towards the prayer room and start reciting Quran with Adam.

After an hour, we proceed towards our bedroom and get ready for bed.

While I am brushing my hair, Adam goes to check on the kids.

He comes back and hugs me from the back.

"I am so tired!" 

"Then sleep!" I say with a smile and walk to the bed

"Arina?"

"yeah?"

"Remember Early in our marriage you used to be a bit insecure and you mentioned that you find it hard to trust male species."

I knew this will be asked one day.

"Yeah?"

"If you don't mind, What was the reason for that?"

I walk towards the bed and take a seat. He follows.

"When i was in my late teens, One day I was walking home after my  shift in the cafe and a guy who used to live in our two streets away started following me.."

"And?"

"I quickened my pace but he caught me and held me against the wall. He tried to..to cross his limits but I started screaming and punching him so Alhumdullilah a lady heard him and ran to my help. She then drove me home and explained everything to my parents. The guy had to leave the area after dad complained. My parents were really supportive but some narrow minded blamed me."

I finish and Adam hugs me tightly.

"But Now I am so thankful to Allah that I have a man like you in my life!" I say with a smile receiving a kiss on the forehead.

"I love you for the sake of Allah!"

"I love you too for the sake of Allah!"
