BEST FRIENDS

Chapter15

I woke up, glancing at the clock. After reciting my morning dua, I reluctantly got out of bed, feeling frustrated with the world and everything around me.

"Thank goodness it's Monday, the day after the weekend. A break from doing nothing, although I often feel more exhausted after the weekend. Burnt out. Tired. Especially these days when Auntie always takes me out for some silly shopping for kitchen utensils and whatnot."

Everything has been going smoothly between Ammar, me, and everyone else for the past week. It was also sad to see Amira in that situation. I feel bad for her. I know its not Ammar's fault, but it's never easy to have a rival.

"God, I really don't want to share my husband with any other girl. What's mine should be mine alone." I keep praying that my future husband wouldn't have a wife or girlfriend. It may sound silly, but I don't like the idea of having a rival.

So, for the past week, Yussy has been angry with me, just because I haven't stepped inside their house since whatever happened between Ammar and me.

"I still don't know the reason why." But I managed to talk to her, and now we're back to being normal. And today, I have plans to go out with Yussy. At the same time, Ammar has been pleading with me to go out with him too.

I walked across the bedroom to my bathroom and splashed water on my face, drying it with a towel. It's as good as it's gonna get. I sighed and then headed out. I brushed my hair, still wearing my pajamas, and slipped on my long hijab. I'm going to meet Yussy today.

I told Auntie that I'm going to Yussy's house, so I quietly entered their house. The house is eerily silent, and I knocked on the door. waiting patiently for the door to be open.

Hearing some footsteps coming the moment the door slide open reveal Ammar standing with a coffee in his hand.'

"His smile grew wider the moment he sees me
