Feeling Blessed

Surprise

AYAAN.

Aghhhrrrr! I just took aspirin but still, this damn headache hurts. I put my head on the steering wheel but I just can’t relax.

It's a Saturday and as usual, I was coming from a friend's house. The usual Friday party has made me late now due to the late night. That’s just great for a newly appointed CEO, isn’t it?!

By party, I meant gathering, and nothing haram; just a few guys having their night out.

About myself, well I am Ayaan, 26 years old. My father recently retired and has handed over the company to me this week; a huge responsibility on my shoulders. I can be mean at times, no offence it’s just the way I handle things.

Here I am running short of time and I kept honking, but this strange girl wouldn’t even budge.

‘What's her problem? Was she deaf or something?’ I asked myself while checking the time, oh girls nowadays...

Astagfirullah.

She is on the right side but I wanted to park here and call my cousin who’s a few minutes away. I wanted to inform her that I have agreed on attending the gathering, we are very close and I couldn't say no to her. Plus she's so stubborn. I got out of the car and closed the door, and decided to check up on the girl who just stood there; her back facing me.

My legs started moving slowly and as I went nearer, I just wanted to see who she is and wished she could turn around and look at me. Such a simple green hijab, no modernity just a simple gown.

Ayaan you have to focus on work and not a strange girl!

I clicked my fingers to gain her attention. Finally, she looked up and I just got a glimpse of her, but then she looked away immediately and started playing with her fingers.

‘Who is she?’ I thought to myself

I asked her to move, I thought she will complain but soon a ringing distracted me. As I attended the call, she left without speaking to me. Who does that?

That's strange,

Do shy girls even exist these days?

Aghhhh, shouldn't be thinking about her so I made a call and drove off.

Little did I know...

SAMINA'S pov:

Why was she asking if I met anyone? She knows I am not into this stuff but then again; where there are girls, there is teasing and mocking. Its Saturday and I am just missing my parents and my thought keeps going back to the guy

Mr blue eyes and yes those damn eyes had a lot to say as if...

‘Already a nickname for him eh?

My inner voice questioned me 

Oh no! Not again.

SABIHA'S pov:

She was trying her best to avoid the question, I just wanted someone who was best for her. She's everything: my sister, my friend. I am just blessed Alhamdulillah, so I am not pushing her too much but I have a plan which InshaaAllah I pray works out.

After some chit chat:

I talked to my cousin, I am so glad he has agreed to come as soon as possible.

Someone knocked, I pretended to be asleep so she would open the door, I secretly opened my eyes to see her reaction and I even took a picture from the side.

SAMINA'S pov:

"Really? Were they really here or was I dreaming? I just can't believe how this can be possible?” I have blessed Alhamdulillah, no one told me about anyone coming today. I know it must have been Sabiha's plan, and the smile never left my face.
