Today as it was the very first day of our 2nd semester, well I wasn't so ready for this but guess what? Zach made me go to university just because he can't watch over Xavier all alone cuz he thinks that Xavier is trying to be on his good terms yeah.
Well for his luck Xavier wasn't there today so after attending all those boring lectures, here we are heading to the parking for obvious reasons right?
So as I and Zach were walking towards our car I saw three girls walking in the same direction as ours. Why do they seem so familiar..ohhh.., she's the sane airport girl, right? I'm not crazy, am I hallucinating or something? No, I'm sure that she's that one yeah and her friend too yeah.. as I was staring at them I felt something or someone Zach poking my side...
"What Zach, what do you want?"
Zachary: hey boss! Why are you staring at?
I don't know, what do you think I'm looking at?
Zachary: well basically your staring at those girls? Don't tell me you got yourself a crush or something or wait, is she the same girl you were telling me yesterday?
( He said pointing out that airport girl's friend who caught me staring at them I guess it else why on earth she would give me that look?)
Zachary; wait is she that girl? Well, which one cause there are 3 of them soooo, which one? Is that the one who's staring back at you?
" Zach shut up, you know what you and that girl are the same like literally you both talk nonstop, well she's not that one, the one in the grey abaya the one now don't look right now, don't point at them okay ?"(I said giving him one last look).
Zachary: oh okay okay so what now? What are you gonna do, are you going to talk to her yaayyyy, well her friend has noticed you staring, and now that 'grey abaya' is hiding wow.
"She should hide from me 'cause what she did back then was ridiculous, so yeah let her hide. Come on let's have some fun now kiddo."
"as we went there, she was pretending not to know me, well I guess she is a bad actor"
Zachary: Bro you serious you have scared the hell out of her? What have done?
"What I was just teasing nothing much "( giving him a boring look I was walking away as I remembered..)
Wait Zach, enough about me. What happened to you there? I saw you staring at her friend and then you two were talking like long-lost buddies, what was that all about, spill the tea sister"
Zachary; who, omysha? Yeah basically we think that you both look good together, we were just talking about you guys.
" Oh, you got her name that quick that's impressive, Lucky you!"
Zachary: well you didn't deny that I said you both look good together and don't be sad my child, the airport girl is Nazreen didn't you hear them shouting her name?
"No, I didn't! Well, Nazreen hmm why do I think that I've heard this name before, well enough about her.
You were telling me something about khizer?
Zachary; oh yeah that Khizer boy is getting engaged, probably next week and he didn't even bother to tell us, well especially you, you both are so close yet he didn't, I'm not even shocked wow.
"Yeah that's because he doesn't own me a thing, well I do and that's why I freed him from anything that's related to blood shredding and all and he doesn't have to tell me every single detail about his personal life he's just managing uncle's company"
Zachary: Which belongs to you as your uncle wrote that to your name, isn't it right?
" No Zach, stop being stingy you know that I can't handle those business things and I don't even want that company "
Zachary: well that's nice of you then and I'm not being stingy at all I was just saying...
~knock..knock~
" Come in. "( Keeping a cold posture to show that I m the boss here is tiring )
Zach: what happens Kareem, why are you happy today?
Kareem: umm. Khizer called me and told me to ask my boss to attend his engagement next week.
" Well, where he is, basically ignoring my calls. Is he really that mad that I didn't give him a visit yesterday to his office? Tell him that I didn't give him that company for nothing, bro why is he like that I trust him with the company yet he thinks that he is not good for that Wow."
Kareem: well that's not the case here. He wanted the position I have here in the mafia and wanted to be with you 24/7 so that he can protect you.
"Come again, what is he even thinking? And I'm not some kid who needs to be protected. Is he crazy or something, he has parents and a brother to take care of yet he wants your position(left hand) so he could paint his hand in blood and what then, what will he say to his family that he's not their goody two shoes huh?
Karen: I don't know Boss, it's just that he thinks that after what happened to your parents and you should be protected and he thinks of you as his brother.
" Well that's much appreciated but I don't want him to do that, I don't want him to pity me now and tell me that I'm not going to be there at his engagement until or unless he doesn't call me "
Zach & Kareem: WHY YOU BOTH ARE SO CHILDISH?
( After saying that in sync both looked at each other and burst into fits of laughter )
"SHUT UP"
Kareem: Okay boss, I'll tell him Bye now!
" What's with him giving me attitude, huh?"
Zachary: calm down sweetie! He's just being your man as you always wanted cold and stern even to you.
"Yeah, thanks for nothing Zach"

NEXT MORNING: (at nazreen's)
As I set up the alarm for Fajr but here I am up already, and it's just 3 now. I don't know why I'm even thinking about him but he kind of looks familiar, not that I saw him the 2nd time but at the first time he seems familiar. I think I know him from somewhere before.
" Okay, Nazreen just stop thinking about, now what to do yeah I can't pray tahajuud and then practice for the quiz I guess ?"
_after tahajuud __
~knock-knock~
I looked up from the book, Ammi is standing by the door.
"Ammi, why are you up so late?"
NOORAH: I can ask you the same girl.
"Ammi I was just thinking about stuff you know"
NOORAH: no I don't so what that might be?
"Umm, muraib Ammi."
NOORAH; Astagfirullah nazreen are you serious, you are thinking about some na mahram at this time? Who he is? And how do you even know him?
" Ehh! Ammi not like that, actually he's that airport guy you remember the one I told you about.
And I was thinking that he looks somehow familiar and you know he studies at the engineering university, that opposite to ours and that's it nothing much Ammi."
NOORAH: oh girl you slightly gave me a heart attack. Maybe you have seen him at the University before as you said he studies there?
"No, I don't know, well enough about him, tell me why aren't you asleep by now?"
NOORAH: Just had a nightmare about Zainah, my friend you know Salman's Ammi. I do t know I just feel that she wants something from us I don't know that it is even possible.
"Maybe you have promised her something and you still haven't fulfilled her promise or something like that, well don't stress yourself much "
(As I bring up the topic of a promise she was completely pale, why, what is she hiding, well nazreen why are behaving like that she's your mom she has her reasons )
NOORAH: well it might be like that, still you didn't answer me why are you up late at night besides thinking about muraib what else are you up to now?
" Ah, well I was just preparing for the quiz as you know next week is Fatima's engagement and the quiz too so I'm just preparing for it so I can have a day or two free to spend with Fatima you know"
NOORAH: oh yeah I forgot about it, so you study then I'm going, but please have some rest okay?
"Will sure have I guess"
As time passed by....,
"Oh it's fajr already"
( After praying I got myself ready and was about to go wake up Hamza but Ammi was fast enough to do that before me, that's good then I don't have to waste my time then haha)
NOORAH; oh you are ready Nazreen, go and wait for us at the breakfast table, your father is already there waiting for you, he has to talk to you okay?
" Okay "
As I sat there at the table baba suggested that we should have a small celebration for Fatima's engagement and as we and omysha have just been from our vacation he just wanted to have dinner with family and friends, omysha and Fatima's family As we all are close.
" I think that's a good idea baba I'll let you know about it after discussing it with both of them okay?"
BABA: okay.
NOORAH: But you must tell us by night so we can book the tables and arrangements you know,
" Yeah Insha Allah I'll let you know by night then we'll where's Omysha?"
NOORAH; oh I forgot to tell to that she'll not be able to pick you up as her car broke down at the last minute so your father is going to drop you so be quick.
"Oh, okay then I guess Allah hafiz as it's already late bye"
NOORAH; okay Allah hafiz, be safe guys.
At The University: All the way there I was just praying that muraib is not here today please I just can't stand him he's so annoying why he has to be here?
BABA; okay here you go nazreen, have a nice day I guess. Allah Hafiz.
"Allah hafiz baba"
Now I have to run real quick for the class;
OMYSHA: hey nazreen where are you going? I'm here didn't you see me waving at you like an idiot how can you ignore me?
" Oh I just didn't see you there now come one we gonna be late "
OMYSHA: we won't be late as ma'am Chloe didn't make it up today so we still have an hour to the next class so what to do now, where is Fatima?
" Oh am I supposed to know, I don't come with her you know just call her already!"
OMYSHA; okay, where are you Fatima, oh okay yeah she is here with me, yeah, well be there in 5 minutes girl.
" What happens where is she?"
OMYSHA: at the library.
"Okays now let's go"
_10 minutes later_
FATIMA: Assalam o alaikum omysha and Fatima, where have you been I was waiting for you.
"Well that's not our problem that you got here that early or that ma'am Chloe has to cancel the class, we were walking from your hell to heaven so it takes time I guess"
OMYSHA; yeah she's right well Shukar Alhamdulillah today was far better than yesterday, not much rush you know.
FATIMA: wait a minute girls, just have a look at each other we all are wearing the same abaya just different colors oh my my, we look like triplets yeah.
" Calm down girls you are squeaking like a duck for no obvious reason"
OMYSHA; well yeah it's nice that we are marching but no need to be jumping at this like a 2-year-old.
"Well guys I have to ask you something, actually Ammi and Baba suggested that we should have dinner together this Saturday or Sunday as we have the day off, and let this be the little celebration for Fatima's engagement in advance so what do you guys think?"
OMYSHA; well I guess that's a good idea we can have a good time together and a good mental break from the anatomy quiz.
FATIMA; well yeah that's fine by me too, so Saturday is it?
"Yeah Saturday night so we can have Sunday too for preparation you know"
OMYSHA; well have prepared for the quiz? I just started last night.
FATIMA; sane girl same.
" Well, I just did a little more than you cuz I was up today at 3 so I just did that.
OMYSHA & Fatima; you always do that Nazreen.
"Hahahaha, wow you guys are in sync, noise.
------let's be quick with this cuz I'm lazy ----- so after the classes we did the same as yesterday, walked to the parking lot yes thankfully today is much better...
" So see ya guys insha Allah, Allah hafiz gotta go now.
OMYSHA; well guess what Nazreen, your secret admirer is watching you be careful, oh well you are coming to me so yeah you will be fine, Allah hafiz Fatima.
" Hey shush Omysha, he's not my admirer and he just studies there so we have to get used to seeing him I guess, and just ignore him don't look at him please"
OMYSHA: fine fine, well you know baba let the driver drop his car here for me to drive so come on now before he gets in our way.
" Yeah plz, he is creepy bro why he is looking at us like that? IDIOT.
