Fatima's P.O.V

Today i was finally discharged from the hospital. It was just a day but I was sick and tired of the place.

Abdulhameed's words were still hurting me deep deep deep. How could he be so coldhearted? I mean, couldn't he see how i was falling for him by each passing day?

I made my mind to stay away from him. Maybe, just maybe, my heart would stop loving him, maybe i won't get some hurtful words from him again, maybe we weren't meant to be.

I looked vaguely through my window as we quickly passed trees, people and cars. Surprisedly, our car came to a halt in a place which looked like an airport.

We aren't leaving now, are we?

We drove inside and parked some few meters away from a PJ, which without a doubt, was the one we came in.

"We're leaving today.. now" Abdulhameed spoke for the first time since we entered the car.

"What?" I said brusquely to which he gave me a weird look "What about my bags, my things? I haven't packed a thing"

"They are all packed, mama mariyah insisted we should come back soon since you aren't feeling too well, anyway, i am done with my work too, we have nothing to do in here"

"O.. okay"

He gave me a short nod before we alighted and walked to the PJ.

After making myself comfortable on the leather seat, I took in a deep breathe and exhaled, happiness surging through me.

We were finally going home. But then i was kind of sad I didn't get the chance to get something for my family and abdulhameed's. Especially Saf and Mirah, they're definitely going to skin me alive.

The pilot started his usual boring announcement but only one thing caught my attention.

We were leaving to KSA.

"We are going to saudi?" I asked no one in particular.

"Yes!" Abdulhameed, who I almost forgot about his existence, answered.

"Wow!" I couldn't help but smile.

I have been there once with both my parents and it was one of the best trips i'd ever been to. Oh how i missed them! I wish they were here with me, I wish I could lay my head on umma or abba's shoulder and sleep throughout the journey.

As soon as our flight took off, i began to read Qur'an inaudibly from my phone app.

Xxxx

I felt a light tap on my shoulder, resulting into ruining my sweet sleep "Umm' khairi"

"Uhm?" I mumbled.

"We're going to land"

I reluctantly opened my sleepy eyes, fastened my seat belt and gazed at the beautiful city of Medina. My dull face immediately lit up like a radiant sun up in the sky.
