"Just because our beliefs are different doesn't mean that we aren't all humans"

Zach's POV

"What is harem?" Zach asks out of the blue making Amal's brows to furrow as she looks away from the lake to stare at the boy in confusion.

"Harem?" she asks him just to be clear because what is that a Shakespeare book/film or something?.

"Yeah, you always say that, like that day I grabbed your hand the day that Anaya and her crew went to bully you..."Zach explains making Amal to remember with a laugh because his pronunciation though!.

"Oh haraam!,It means things forbidden in my religion" she says making Zach frown

"Grabbing your hand is forbidden?" he asks in disbelief while Amal smiled of course his atheist self wouldn't understand.

"They are many things that are forbidden in my religion,like how we are seating alone away from civilization right now"  Amal states making Zach frown they are rules on how to live your life too?, wow.

"What's so bad about us seating alone?" he asks curiously

"Because when a guy and a girl are sitting together,the devil is actually with them" she explains making his brows furrow before he stared at her like she had lost her mind.

"Devil?, are you being serious right now?" Zach asks with a laugh not making fun of her but he was raised not believe in God, so how would he believe in The devil?.

"Yes" Amal states making him to raise a brow

"Oo prove it to me" he says teasingly making Amal send him a determined look

"Have any stupid thoughts crossed your mind?" she asks out of the blue making him frown

"Stupid thoughts?, what do you even mean?" Zach asks still confused

"Yeah,thoughts about me for example?" she asks feeling confident all of a sudden making Zach's eyebrows to shoot up at the very confident question....well that question isn't as innocent as it sounded.

"Are you just trying to find out if and how i'm thinking about you?" Zach replies not missing a point

"N-no that was not what i meant!, I just- you said I should prove it to you!" she rants with her red cheeks

"Relax I was just messing with you go on" Zach says with a grin

"It starts to whisper things and make you have this strange thoughts about the person next to you,who is of a different sex so my religion prohibits it for safety" Amal explains Zachary actually looks like he was taking that information in.

"Then why are you seating here then? if it is har-am" Zach asks curiously making Amal's mouth to fall open as she suddenly feels like all the words have escaped from her brain, she stares up at him dumbly while he waits patiently for her to reply with a smug smile.

"Stop staring I already know I'm cute" he says with a smirk

"Shut up!,i'm going home"  Amal says defensively turning away from him with a blush before standing up

"No,please don't go, I was just messing with you"  Zach states while Amal just glares at him making him burst into another fit of laughter

"you are annoying" Amal states

"I know, I just like seeing people especially you angry" Zach confessed making Amal send him a look of disbelief

"You are such a sadist"  She states with a laugh
