3rd person's pov.

Love is a complex set of emotions, behaviours, and beliefs associated with strong feelings of affection, protectiveness, warmth, and respect for another person.

Love is something that is cultivated between two people and grows over time, through getting to know him or her and experiencing life's many ups and downs together. It involves commitment, time, mutual trust, and acceptance.

Love is when there is a willingness to prioritize another's well-being or happiness above your own.

Love is an extreme feelings of attachment, affection, and need. It is a dramatic, sudden feelings of attraction and respect. It is also a fleeting emotion of care, affection, and like.

In the end, real love always lasts forever. Indeed, the couple, Nuska and Zaid's love will last forever.

"Nuska, wake up dear. It's time for Fajr prayers", Zaid tried waking her up but as usual it was a tough job for him.

"Nuska, wake up" Zaid said stroking her hair.

"Okay", She mumbled.

"Devil, if you dont wake up now, I will be one step ahead of you in Jannah and then we won't be able to meet and stay together." He told her gently.

This time she opened her eyes. Thankfully, this worked out to him.

He sighed and got off the bed to take wudu while she stretched herself lazily on bed and got up.

She rubbed her eyes, yawning.

Sleep is her first love and no one can change that. *laughs*

She wanted to go back to sleep again but decided not to because if she lie down now she will never be able to get up again.

She got off from the bed and took her phone from the bed side table.

There was a message from an unknown number but before she could check what it was, Zaid came out of the bathroom so she kept her phone away and decided to check it later.

"Woah! Sleepy head, I thought you would have gone back to sleep but it seems like you didn't. You love me so much that you don't want to miss me in Jannah too" Zaid said winking.

"Don't get your hopes high Mr.Zaid. I woke up so that you will not miss me in Jannah because I know you love me a lot" She smirked .

"Both sounds same" He chuckled and spread the prayer mat on the floor.

"Nope, it doesn't" she hit him playfully on his arm.

"Well ma'am, what you said is right. You are always right, sweetheart. Now go and take wudu and come back soon. I will be waiting for you " He kissed her forehead while she frowned.

"Whatever. I know I am always right" She commented and left to take wudu.

After 5 minutes, She joined Zaid and they started their prayers. As usual Zaid led the prayer and she was stunned by his melodious voice.

She loved his recitals and she even insisted him to upload his recitals in YouTube and he did. His voice was indeed loved by all and MaShaAllah he earned a quiet a lot of fans in a small span of time.

Once they completed their prayers, they started reciting the Qur'an which they loved doing.

They recited for an hour and Zaid even taught her meanings of few Surahs which she listened very carefully.

Time passed on quickly and they went off to have a wash one by one.

Nuska as usual went in first to have a wash, while Zaid ordered breakfast for them and within no time, it arrived.

After half an hour, Nuska came out of the bathroom dressed in a yellow top and white pant.

She started combing her hair while Zaid went to the bathroom to have a wash. After 15 minutes, he came out dressed in a yellow T-shirt yet again matching her outfit.

Once they were ready they went off to the balcony to have their breakfast viewing the beautiful scenery outside.

Since Nuska was not interested in eating breakfast, he decided to feed her and she loved it that way.

"Zaid, I need to tell you something" She said munching her favourite pasta which Zaid fed her.

"Yes, what is it?" He asked eagerly.

"When I was 14, Yusuf bhai showed me your 13 year old picture." She started.

"Really? " He asked surprised.

"Yes. He said that you become a Hafiz at that age. MaShaAllah you had a great dedication to memorize the Qur'an and indeed you had a great memory power too" She Said.

"Firstly, Congratulations for becoming a Hafiz at a small age." She added.

"Jazakallahu khair dear" He kissed her cheeks.

"Wa antum fa jazakumullahu khairan" She replied.

"And now I am going to reveal a truth" She added.

"Truth?" He raised his eyebrows, feeding her another spoonful of Pasta.

"Yes."

"But what is it? " He got tensed.

"The truth is......" She dragged.

"C'mon Nuska, tell me" He said impatiently.

"Okay. So the truth is......." She laughed still dragging and this was getting him tensed.

"I dont want to know" He said and continued feeding her.

"Okay Okay. I'll tell you. " She said

"The truth is, I had a crush on you at that time and everyone in my family knew it"

"What?" He asked totally shocked.

"Yes. I had a crush on you from that time. You know, I always dream about you" She chuckled.

"Are you serious?" He asked still not believing.

"Yes Zaid. It's true"

"So you are that girl? "He said and started laughing.

"Why are you laughing?" She frowned.

"Yusuf had told me about you and guess what..." He started laughing.

"What is it? Tell me"

"I always thought to consider you as my sister" He laughed.

"Sister? " she frowned.

"How can you consider me as your sister even after knowing I had a crush on you? " she twisted his ears while he laughed.

"Ouch! It hurts."

"I dont care. Tell me, why did you consider me as a SISTER?" She said pressing on the word 'Sister'.

"Because I don't know."

"I need a proper reason" she glared at him.

"Because Yusuf considers you as a SISTER so did I"

"I said 'proper reason'" she said glaring at him.

"I don't know, Nuska. I just thought to consider you as my sister but I never did consider you in that way, I guess. That's the truth"

"Whatever! "She commented.

"Let me continue what I was saying" she added and continued, "you know, I even told my family that I am getting married to you when I grow up but they never took it seriously because they thought I am was joking and crazy since I was kid"

He was honestly happy because she had fallen in love with him because he loved Allah and because he had memorized the words of Allah.

"Look at us now, we are married and everything was just a coincidence. When Yusuf bhai told me that I was actually married to my childhood crush, I was beyond shocked but I was happy because my duas were answered by Allah. Yes, I asked dua that I want to get married to you" She said happily.

He was getting more and more shocked by hearing to all what Nuska was saying.

See how Allah had done everything to them, thus proved that We don't meet people accidentally.

There is a reason behind everything that happens in this world.

"Indeed, Allah had planned our love story in the most perfect way and I love it that way" He told her smiling.

"Yes indeed. Allah's plans are always the best"

Unexpected things happen at unexpected situations.....

Timing is something that none of us can seem to get quite right with relationships. We could even meet the person of our dreams in a very unexpected situations.....

Thus, these lines were proved right by what happened in the lives of the couple, Nuska and Zaid.

Just like Allah had planned, they met their life partner at the most unexpected situations..

            *******************

They quickly completed their rest of their breakfast and got ready to leave for Zermatt.

Zermatt, the most beautiful place in Switzerland and words are not enough to describe the beauty of that place.

MaShaAllah, Allah's creations are beyond beautiful.

They Checked out of the hotel theye were currently staying and after putting their luggage in the car, they started their journey.

They were travelling to Zermatt via another amazing mountain pass- The Grimselpass .

This part of the journey was about 3 hours and once they reached there, they went off to the hotel to take some rest before they start their journey in here.

To be continued......
