Adams pov: I was laying on my bed to go to sleep but that girl...I even know her name Fajr,even her name is soo beautiful,I don't know genuinely that what was so unique in her because I can't get her out from my mind,how did she sit right in front of me...that better be a joke man how can Amar Ahmed think about a girl Astaghfirullah ya Allah what's happening with me,I better call my childhood friend Adam.Adam is my childhood best friend but also his family and my family are friends,I can say everything to everyone but when I'm with him,it's different.

Adam:"Yoo bro Assalamualaikum,how are you?"
Amar:"Alhamdullillah I'm good,what about you and how's everyone?"
Adam:"Everyone is good,you tell me how's your business going huh?"
Amar:"its going great...its just today...."and I didn't say anything for like 20 seconds so he shouted
Adam:"Hello bro,what today"
Amar:"hm today...ehh...well I had some interviews!" I wanted to tell him about How I was shocked to see Fajr but it didn't feel right to me to talk about a girl to a non mehram person,so I immediately changed the topic but also left him confused
Adam:"emm,is that really what you wanted to tell me bro?" He said wondering because he understands me very well even If I tried to hide
He still knew there is something going on
Amar:"yh yh,you tell me bro when are you guys coming back" he went in Blackpool with his whole family for holidays and also he's got some relatives there.I had a chat with him but then it was getting late so went to sleep after thinking about her for around 20 25 minutes.

I woke up next morning for fajr and Hassan asked me if have decided who to hire,we had 10 15 people yesterday but I just needed to hire 1 at the moment,as I still got my siblings with me
Amar:"Saying the truth,there were quite few people who were suitable for this interview, so what do you think?"
Hassan:"Well I'm not sure,but...Jannat was telling there was this girl wears nikab can't remember her name..." he said while he was trying so hard to remember her name
Amar:"Bro where are we going?"I asked him as he thought I was still in my sleep haha
Hassan:"well in the masjid! Why do you wanna bring me somewhere else to give your little brother a surprise haha"
Amar:"don't imagine it for me and tell me what are we going to do in the masjid"
Hassan:"Bhai(brother) I'm not a child who you're asking this questions,obviously we're going in the masjid to pray fajr" he said getting frustrated by my questions
Amar:"so what's her name then" I said laughing
Hassan:"......Fajr,yh it was fajr but....why did you have to ask me as I'm a child you could have just told me nah"he said laughing and punching me
Amar:"well its not only your right to tease me"i said winking
"Buy the way,she's actually right,I also think that she's suitable for the role,she's got experience,confident,language and all"i genuinely thought that she was suitable for that role which I have already explained to her
Hassan:"Okay so should I email her to come on her 1st day of job"
Amar:"Hm do it,but make sure to do it on the day when Jannat will be available so she can be comfortable,i will also be there to explain her" I said because I just want her to be comfortable I don't know why...

I woke up early after fajr so I could prepare some food for mom and dad,dad was telling me how much he missed "Ghr ka khana"(home food) so I.wanted to make him his and mum's few favourite dishes,I made Chicken Karahi,Pasta,Some chicken roast and in sweets I made some kheer as we all love it.I don't get tired its like a therapy for me I never cooked so much before all together I mostly cook for my self so I hope it came out good.
I went in my room as last night I was finishing my painting so I went to tidy that up and got a message from Mustafa that he'll be back in half an hour.as I was checking my email I got an email from the Cafe shop that I went for an interview that they have accepted me,I was sooo happy full of joy because where ever I used to go,they used to ask me that I will have to take my Nikab off but Alhamdullillah I had Allah with me,I told the girls that I got the job but I wanted to tell my family when we all be together.
We got some flower bouquets and we reached at the airport to welcome my parents,I saw a glimpse of my dad from far,he's really tall so I could see him from far and then mom with him.
They came and me and mustafa gave a kiss on their hands after giving them bouquet and hugged them tight because I missed them a lot.
Everyone was surprised of what I made because it was my first time making chicken karahi but I remember how mum used to make it,but Alhamdullillah everyone liked it a lot and they all praise my cooking which made me feel awkward,mum and dad wanted to show us the gifts buy I wanted to tell them the big news,with the gifts I got them
Fajr:"mama papa,ruke pehle muje mere tofe dene de"(mom dad wait,let me give you guys my gifts) I went to get them upstairs from my room but could hear both of them saying that I didn't have to
"Yeh mama apke lie or ye Papa apke lie(This is for you mama and this Is for you papa)
Mustafa:"and where's mine haan?Mene b itne din tume bardaash kie"he said making everyone laugh in the room
Mama:"Beta ye boht ache hai lekin tume zarurat nahi thi ye sab lene ki tumne apni pocket mani apne pae kharch krni thi"(you didn't have to buy us gifts,you should have speeded your pocket money on yourself)
Papa:"Haan meri jaan tum to choti ho na,hmare lie tum hi sabse bara tohfa ho"(Yes my life your small,and ur the biggest gift for us) he got emotional saying this
Fajr:"Are mama papa kuch b ni hota agr me spke lie lehlu or abi to muje eek hor baat batani hai aap logo ko"( its fine and I still have to tell you guys something yet) I said changing the topic to cheer up everyone and looking at Mustafa
"I got a...JOB" I said jumping with happiness
Mama papa:"Ma sha Allah Ye to boht khushi ki khabar hai beta"(Ma sha that's such a good news my daughter) they said smiling and mustafa also hugged me and said congratulations little sister
We opened our gifts that mama papa got us,abaya profumes(itr),miswak,tasbeeh,prayer mat and most special Zam Zam water
They had a long flight so they were going to have some rest but mustafa stopped them and gave them a bag each which had few gifts for them,they got soo happy and hugged us both.
I was never this much close to my parents,especially my mom but after that incident our life's changed and also for better.
I went in my room to chat with my girls who were over the cloud's with the happiness and I already started deciding what to wear tomorrow.
