Ikhlas POV

The next day, I got ready for my Antenatal as usual and got out of my room. I met Haneefah in the sitting room, she was dressed like she was also going out but it looked like she was waiting for someone.

"Hi" she said to me and my heart immediately started beating erratically that I thought it would eventually combust.  I also replied with a "Hi".

She shifted in her seat, hesitating to answer. "Umm... Am not trying to be overbearing but I would like to go to the hospital with you."

My heart swelled and it meant a lot to me that she wanted to come. I hadn't expected her to, but she already Suprised me multiple times this past month. I nodded "I'd love if you come"

I started the car and drove off to the hospital. She rested her head and for a while I thought she was sleeping till I saw tears run down her tears.

"Are you okay?" I asked.

    Ikhlas POVThe night was beautiful, the stars were out and the sky was the darkest shade of blue I had seen in a while. The moon was full and it casts a shimmering light below, lightening the part for the dark at heart. The mid October breeze blew in all directions, never slowly in it's mad rampage. It wasn't cold, but it was a sign of winter approaching. I sat by my window, staring at the beautiful scenery and thinking about how life with Haneefah had turned out to be. Things were slowly changing between I and Haneefah. I could now comfortably watch movies in the sitting room without any problem, Even though we haven't sit together since the day she took me to the hospital well apart from meals. A message popped up on my phone screen, rescuing me from my stress-induced daze. "Get ready tomorrow Kaka wants to see all of us." It was from Haneef. Which made me begin to wonder what might ha

    IKHLAS POV. I woke up the next morning to find a marker on my bed, I wonder how it got here. I helped myself out of bed and headed to the bathroom to perform Ablution for Subh prayer. I was about washing my other arm when I noticed something scribbled on my cast with black marker. Guess that was exactly the reason why the marker was on my bed in the first place. It says " Get well soon peaches" with a smiley face drawn on it. I was confused. Haneef also calls me peaches but the calligraphy was Haneefah's and she had no reason to come to my room talkless of writing on my cast. I stared down at it and I found myself swooning at the calligraphy. Although there was no denying the fact that she was different. I witnessed it in the hospital. I couldn't pinpoint exactly what was going on but she no longer had that dark look hidden in her eyes, like i
