Zara P.O.V

"Wake up, its already 7 a.m we will be late...!!!" My little brother Zain yelled from the doorway and ran away.

I woke up yawning God why we have to get up this early.

After doing my morning routine, I ran downstairs and grabbed my sandwich from the dinning table.

"Assalamu alaikum...!!!" I greeted my family who were sitting on dinning table and enjoying their breakfast.

"Hurry up Zain we will be late..!!!" I shook my brother who just ate the last morsel of his breakfast.

"Look who is talking..." I glared at him making everyone laugh. We bid our good bye and left the house.

I rushed towards my car and drove as fast as I can. Usually I hate driving fast. I used to scold my elder brother's Zakir & Zafir for driving fast and now I am doing the same thing.

Zain turned the radio on and started to sing "Will you just keep quite Zain, and please slow down the volume." I pleaded him because I know if I will yell he will irritate me more.

After which felt like eternity we reached. As soon as I parked my car Zain ran away without even waiting for me.

Great brother you have to pay for leaving me alone. I locked my car, and made my way towards the college.

"Zara wait up" I halted in my way as I saw my sweetheart, my best friend Afreen screaming like a maniac from her car window. I waved at her and walked towards the car.

She literally jumped at me making me fall but thanks to the car behind me which stopped me from falling.

"Can't breath." I managed to whisper from her tight grip on me.

"I missed you sooo much" she said.

"I missed you too babe." after hearing this her eyes lit up like a christmas tree. She beamed at me and again took me into a bone crushing hug.

We are best friends from last 3 years and our friendship is getting strong day by day. Afreen is beautiful she got most of her looks from her mother and her eyes were exactly like her father. Her mother is british but she converted into islam and now she is a good muslimah. My thoughts were interrupted by one and only my lpng time crush Affaan.

"Afreen you forgot your bag in the car." he came towards us his eyes never left mine.

He looks like a model from some Italian magazine. He is carbon copy of his dad but got his eyes from his mother. Exact opposite of Afreen.

Whenever I look into his eyes I just can't resist it. I just want to drown in them and... Astagfirullah this guy is driving me insane.

I looked down immidiately while blushing like an idiot. Afreen was laughing at us.

"Shut up you fatty." Affaan muttered and walked away cursing his sister.

She was still laughing I scowled at her and dragged her towards college. People were giving us weird looks. Soon she composed herself.

"Thank God." I muttered glaring at her.

"Its not my fault you both look at eachother like some love sick puppies." she said.

I tried to protest but she stopped me and continued "Look girl I know you both love each other why don't you confess it. Its being 2 years you both still can't say a simple 'i love you'." she air quoted those three dreading words.

"Its not that easy...!!!" I was getting frustrated by her constant nagging.

"I am going to talk to Affaan about this today and than tell about this to our parents also." she stated like its the most easiest thing in the world.

"Are you mad...!!! Please don't do something like that..promise me please.." I gave her my best puppy dog eyes but she just shrugged her shoulder and walked away.

Whole day went me following Afreen and pleading her but nothing helped "Why shouldn't I...?! What will happen if you will get married to someone else..?? What will my brother do than,? what will you do..??? Hunh..?? Its better to do it now or never." I sighed and gave in.

After our college Affaan came to pick her up. I smiled at him weakly he gave me a confused look but I just drove away.

Since I had came back from college I was thinking about what will happen.. will his parents accept me..?? They are billioner will they ever accept my relation with Affaan.?

Its 11 at night and sleep is far fetched. I thought about calling Afreen but I know she will just tease me. After turning and tossing sleep took over me. Tomorrow will be life changing.
