"Nah... You know I can't wear this, it's too revealing"

"Come on Farah, you have to look sexy for Jawad" she chimed.

Only if she knew

"Okay let's check the other sections." She stated disappearing out of the door.

Seriously all these things are getting on my nerves. First pretending to be couples in love and now date.

"You coming," Myrah shouted from outside, getting me out of my thoughts.

"Yeah coming"

We checked almost all the sections, from dresses, cosmetics, lingeries talking of lingerie is making me cringe.

"Why did we buy a lot of things, it's just a date" I exclaimed taking the shopping bags off the counter.

"What do you mean a lot of things, you literally need them for your date," shrugging her shoulder she paid the bills, walking towards the exit. "And besides, they are not all yours; I also bought for myself," She said rolling her eyes.

We put all the shopping bags inside the car.

    F A R A HMorning came and I instantly dress up finding the bed empty, Jawad must be in office.Going downstairs I met with Myrah, a plate of scrambled egg in her front, her brows furrowed. Moving towards her, I took a fresh plate placing my own scrambled egg and started munching on it immediately, Myrah didn't even know I'm sitting beside her.“Hello you there?” I waved my hands in front of her face, snapping her out of her thought. She forced a smile taking a bite of her untouched food.“Is something bothering you?” I asked with concern.“No.. Nothing.” She answered back. The little days I spent with her, I know she's not a quiet one there must be something bothering her. She looks out of place, her eyes look lost, I decided not to question her more, we ate in silence. Until she pulled her chair back muttering I'm stepping out for a bit. I let out a small sigh.“Farah aren't you going out together with Myrah?” Aunt Fatima asked, picking up the plates from the dinning.“No..did some

    F A R A H“What did you just said?”I couldn't believe what he just uttered“Did you hate me that much?” I asked watching him with my almost teary eyes. I thought maybe after spending our fake time he will at least change his dislike but I'm wrong.“I can't believe you hate me that much” pushing him off me, I stormed out of his office not even paying attention to the stares I'm getting, hailing a taxi I finally let out the tears.Introducing you as my wife is an embarrassment to me.His words kept repeating in my head. The taxi stopped at the gate, I cleared my face not wanting Myrah and Aunt Fatima to suspect something.Entering the house, I heard Aunt Fatima and Myrah laughing watching some movie. Upon seeing me Myrah gave me one of her cute smile.She looks happy“Come join us” She ushered me to come. I sat down beside Aunt Fatima.“This movie is really funny Farah” Myrah said giggling.I'm glad they didn't notice my change of mood. Watching the movie, made my mind off all the thi

    F A R A HIt took me some minutes to register what just happened. Staring at my plate, I suddenly lost my appetite, I checked the ticket and the location is Dubai. I always wish to visit Dubai someday but now going together with Jawad, I don't feel that excited anymore.WaitDo these tickets has to do with Myrah?I need to have a word with her.I kept the leftover food in the fridge and walked towards her room. Knocking on the door she opened immediately.That was fast“Hey honeymoon girl, do you need help with parking” she teased, I rolled my eyes.“Yeah I need your help, but first tell me does this honeymoon thing has anything to do with you?” I asked eyeing her suspiciously.“What do you mean, it's just a suggestion” she muttered playing with the hem of her hijab.I knew it!“Come on Farah maybe going on the honeymoon will get you two closer” she added, I rolled my eyes by her remark.Closer my foot“You know that will not be possible, so brush off any weird thought from your head”

    F A R A HToday is the day we are going for our honeymoon. To say I'm nervous will be an understatement, Myrah is helping me with the parking even though i insist i will do the parking myself but being the stubborn one she refused."You have to pack those two" she said holding up a black lacy Nightgown.Subhanallah "No i don't need them" i form my lips in a thin line. Glancing at her, she frowned her face indicating she's not happy with my reply."Okay i will take them" her face immediately turns to smile."If you wear this Jawad will fall hea.." Glaring at her she held her hand up. Putting the remaining clothes inside the trolley, i zip it up taking a look at the big clock placed at the concrete wall."I want to see mom before leaving" i said taking my hijab and tying it around my head."Can i accompany you, the house is boring" she shows me her puppy face, the one she uses when she wants to convince someone."Sure but we won't stay long, as you know our flight is in the next fiftee

    F A R A H After for about 30 minutes we finally arrived at his villa. To say I'm surprise will be an understatement by the view, the house is huge with a sea surrounding the house. I instantly fell in love with it's coolness and the beautiful view.Entering the house my eyes widen. The house looked a lot bigger than our own. The walls are painted milk and a large LCD was occupying the wall, and the cushion are a shade of pink and ash which brightens the room more."Come let me show you your room" he said walking away with me tailing behind him. While walking upstairs all i do is roam my eyes around the hallway not even realizing we've reach my room with jawad looking at me with a smirk.Did he just smirk?"This is your room, and mine is next door" saying that he left leaving me with my mouth agape.What just happened?I pushed the black metallic door open stepping inside, my feet came in contact with the cold white tiled floor. My eyes immediately landing on the medium-sized bed pos

    F A R A H What he said had been echoing in my head throughout the day, I find myself feeling happy by the conversation we had even though it's not a serious one I still like the moment.My phone vibrates through the room making me snapped out of my thought. Checking the caller id Myrah's name flashed on the screen."Assalamu Alaikum our mommy" I cheered through the phone."Wa Alaikum salam our honeymoon girl, how are you doing and your hubby" she chirped happily."We're doing just fine" I answered back."Wait you sound happy, what's the secret did you two...." I cut her off before she uttered any more."No it's nothing like that, we just had a normal conversation without feeling like murdering each other" pulling my hair behind my hair, I rest my head on the headboard playing with the hem of my shirt."Wow Farah you're getting close gradually, I know one of you has to take a step and Jawad being the stubborn he is will not, it's better if you take the step to take your marriage to th

    F A R A H "Can we be friends?"To say I'm surprised will be an understatement, the one and only Jawad who can't stand me is asking to be friends. I was a little happy my husband is gradually changing but kept a stern face not wanting him to see the happiness on my face "Who are you?" I asked. He doesn't seem to grab my words he just kept staring at me."Are you sick somewhere?" I nudged him a little. "Oh you don't seem to grab my joke, I mean are you really the Jawad I know" I explained.So now Farah you're acting comfortable with him. I don't know what made him laugh, is it my joke or me smacking him.Something is definitely wrong."What's wrong in being friends, we've been married for some months now and we can't stay like this forever like strangers" he stated."I have one question". I said sitting more comfortably. "What made you change your mind, as in why are you suddenly kind to me now". I asked.Seriously I need to know what made him change his mind that he's been kind to m

    F A R A H"Good morning," I said the moment I sat on the dinning.A smile made it way out of Jawad's lips. "Good morning, how are you feeling now?"The event of last night flashed in my head.Shit Farah what have you done.I remembered crying on Jawad's shoulder. And the craziest part of it is that I told him I can't sleep alone. I've been so emotional that we literally shared the bed. Though we place a barrier between us, which made me feel a bit comfortable. Ya Allah this is awkward."I'm feeling much better Alhamdulillah," I replied back calmly."I've spoken to the security services regarding last night, I hope we'll find out something about the guy." I do hope the thief will be captured."So what do you want to do today." He said suddenly taking a sip of his coffee. His words caught me off guard. I still can't believe he's kind to me. Some part of me tells me I should not be comfortable with his new change of behavior.What do I want to do?"Let's just stay indoor, we can even d

Amir and Zara got along so well, they acted as if they knew each other so well. A smile made it way out of my face seeing Amir and Zara jumping around in the living room, As Zara refused to follow her mom back home saying she wants to stay with her grandma, and I know it's because of Amir."Good morning wifey," Marwan said hugging me from behind. I pushed him a little, my eyes scanning the surrounding. "Don't forget that you're in your in-law's house," I whispered enough for him to hear."And so, besides you didn't mind yesterday when we-" I shut him up by covering his mouth with my palms."Ever since we came you've become naughty just like Amir." his lips twitch up. "I'll be naughty just for you, when is your sister coming?" he asked which made me remember we both decided to go out for dinner today.

A hand touch my shoulder."Shall we" "Yes" I said letting out a sharp breathe.The drive to the airport was not so quite, as Amir couldn't stay calm, even the the a month of toys I gave him but the boy was still jumping up and down, he's growing up being stubborn nowadays."Can we cope with Amir like this" I whispered to Marwan, who was seated at the front. "Of course we can, he's now a big boy right Amir?" he turned his face and glanced at Amir, who was busy playing with the drivers seat pocket, hearing his father's voice his head snapped towards him, stopping at was he was doing."Don't worry Yasmin, it's nothing to worry about, beside I'll be with him too" As if he's saying the truth. when he start his work, he wouldn't even remember Amir nor me but I hope this little vacation will at least get him closer to him.

I stared at the white envelope in confusion."What's inside?""Open it and see for yourself" I tore the lid."Tickets?" I said taking out the tickets."Yeah, it's for us, we're going on a vacation," he stated tight-lipped."To my hometown?" I access the ticket, not believing my eyes. Marwan taking me on a vacation and that to my hometown. Before I could realize it, I find myself lunging my arms around Marwan's neck."Ya Allah, I'm so happy thank you so much" I grinned, he encircled his arms around me too, tightening his hold, as if he's afraid I will disappear. "I thought that it will be best to spend some time together with Amir, and I think why not go to your hometown. I know you're missing your family." "How sweet of you" he pulled apart, cupping my face with his palms. "You know, I will do whatever that wil

    Y A S M I NFriday AfternoonI was curled up in bed with Amir beside me, the boy had been sick since yesterday. I'm still on rest as per what Marwan told my boss, I am to rest for the whole week. Just the thought of staying indoors throughout the week without going to work excites me. Marwan is already at work, me and Amir being the only ones at home. I place my palms on his forehead and I'm glad his fever went down a bit. I've come to a decision that he will not go to school, we will spend the week together. Seeing it's almost time for Zuhr prayers, I pulled the duvet more to his body, getting out of the bed I went straight to the bathroom and did my wudhu and that reminded me of that night, the night we did our first kiss. The image is still clear in my head, that night is a special one for me. I prayed Zuhr Namaz praying to Allah to protect my family more and bless my marriage life. Getting married is not something I planned but now I realised that is what Allah planned.By the ti

"Should I call.?" he asked again. I hummed in return. I heard the sound of the door closing, which means Marwan left.**I cuddled up in bed too lazy to lift my body downstairs, my only movement is when I had to pray, after then I went back to bed again but not sleeping rather reading some hadith I downloaded on my phone. The phone suddenly rang, a smile appears on my lips seeing the person calling me."Assalamu Alaikum. " I started in my most calm voice."Wa Alaikum salam, are you still in bed?" he inquired.

Marwan got back to work, as he now has more responsibilities than before. We both were busy with our owns works. dropping Amir in aunts place as usual.
