A little girl in pink dress squealed happily as she jumped on the bed happily,her ponytail kept bouncing up as she jumped,her little cute lips were parted as she kept shouting "Lunch at grandpa's!"
Her eyes went wide when she saw her mother approaching her,she slowly let her lips part into a smile showing off her dimples.
"Yumnah,shut up!" Yusrah stated rolling her eyes as she sprayed the perfume she was holding on her daughter's gown.
"I am just so excited,Ummi!" Her cute voice soothed Yusrah's ears and she just smiled at her as she helped her down "Me too."
They stepped out of the room and Yazeed also stepped out of his "Someone is looking cute." Yazeed stated staring at Yumnah who twirled "This is from grandma's newest collection!" She stated squealing and Yazeed just chuckled.
"Yaya! Piggy back?" Yumnah questioned with her best puppy face and Yazeed groaned "No,nana." He stated shaking his head "I am all dressed up for the special occasion.My clothes will squeeze if I give you a piggy back." He stated and she pouted as she held his hand.
"Just till we reach downstairs."
"Just that,nothing more nana!"
"I agree!"
Yazeed sigh as he went on his knees and Yumanh jumped on his back happily "You are the best!" She shouted and he rolled his eyes.
Yusrah laughed at the brother and sister duo as she went into their room to check if her husband is ready.
"Habibty,I can't find my links." He stated exasperated,Yusrah rolled her eyes as she picked them from the mirror.She raised her hand showing them to him as he pass her his hands and she just laugh before clipping them for him.
Yusuf pecked her cheeks smiling "Your beauty keeps increasing everyday.What is the secret?" He questioned and she laughed at the usual joke "It is the glow of being Yusuf's wife." She stated laughing and he also joined her.
She fixed his cap for him as she smiled widely "Let's get going,habibi." She stated and he nod his head as he pass his hands to her which she held tightly as they walk out.
They stepped out of the house with Yazeed and Yumnah entertaining them "I am a big girl,I am 6!" She stated and he nodded his head "Yes,too big for a piggy back." He stated and she shook her head "But I am your lovely sister,even when I am 12 like you. I will still love your piggy backs." Yazeed let out a laugh as he eye her "That time, I will be 18!"

"And I will be 12!"
"I know!"
"I won't be too big for piggy back!"
"You will be!"
"I won't."
"Oh please."
"Oh please *2"
"Yumnah!"
"Yaya!"
Yusuf rolled his eyes as he turned to them "Enough."
They both kept quite "I am never talking to you again." Yumnah stated with tears filling her eyes as she turn around "Better." He stated frowning.
Yusrah and Yusuf both shrugged knowing that it will only take a minute before they get back together,so they won't even interfere.
"I want us to stop at Iman's book shop,I want to collect some books for those two." Yusrah stated and Yusuf nod his head "I also wanted to collect one copy of her book." He stated and Yusrah sigh dreamily "Iman wrote that book well.Like,you should really read it.It is out of the world!" She stated and Yusuf just nod his head smiling.
He turned a little and stared at her "You are so beautiful.How did I get so lucky?" He questioned and Yusrah laughed covering her face "You are so handsome.How did I get so lucky?"
"Yaya! Take a look at that bicycle!" Yumnah exclaimed and Yazeed turned his attention to what she was pointing at "Gosh,mine should be blue and yours pink!" He stated and she nod her head excitedly as she went closer to him.
See! They have forgotten about the fight!
Yusuf stopped in front of the book shop which is named "".They all stepped out leaving Yazeed and Yumnah in the car.
"Sister in law!" Iman stated happily as Yusrah hug her a little carefully because of her baby bump "How is our second baby doing?" She questioned and Iman laughed before replying with a "Stubbornly fine!"
"Yaya." She waved and he smiled at her "I will get the books." She stated as she scramble further into the beautiful shop "Get me a copy of your book too." Yusuf stated and she nodded her head.
She hand Yusrah her own and Yusuf his own.
Yusuf tenderly touched the cover of the book with a smile,Iman have always loved reading and writing.Now that she is doing it right,it makes him so happy.
He tasted the name of the book before he voiced it out ""
"Why did you choose the name?" He questioned and she smiled "Because,one night can change everything."
He nodded his head as he smiled at her "Let's take you along with us." He stated and she shook her head "Fahad is on his way."

Yusrah smiled "See you soon." She stated as they both stepped out.
~
Yusuf's eyes darted from his father who was smiling as he shove rice into his mouth to his mother who was pouring drink for herself with a smile etched on her face.
It is her shop's five years anniversary.
Mama did it.She became the best seamstress in town,she followed her dream and passion.His father have changed,he have become a family man who love his wife a lot and support her at every step of her life.
His eyes darted to Iman who was scolding her five year old baby girl Jalilah.Fahad smiled as he pat her shoulders trying to make her calm down.
"Baba!" Yumnah stated poking him,he turned his attention to her raising his eyebrow,she inched closer to him as she settled near his ears "Nothing." She stated laughing as she ran away and Yusuf just shook his head with a small smile playing on his lips.
Yusrah let out a laugh at her mother's joke about her childhood.She is happy that mama invited her family too "Yusrah have always been a naughty girl." Her father agreed and she whined a little "Baba please!"
Zahra smiled as she stared at Yusrah who was whining like a baby "Never complain about Yumnah's whiny nature.She took it from you." She stated and Yusrah roll her eyes "Never complain about Faruk's stubbornness.He took it from you." Zahra touched her heart laughing "Toućhe."
They all boomed in laughter as they continued having lunch.

Yusrah typed furiously on her laptop as she massaged her head which was throbbing "Do it tomorrow." Yusuf stated sitting beside her "I have the class tomorrow." She stated.
She is a lecturer in a polytechnic and it gets so frustrating sometimes.Well most of the times.
But she is grateful for where she is right now.She have her degree,a job,a loving husband with two kids and her lovely family.She also have friends,a lot.
In every moment you are in,if you start feeling ungrateful turn around.You didn't have some things that you have now before.Many of your prayers have been answered.Let yourself free,their is more to life than focusing on the things you don't have.Yusrah is happy with where she is right now.She have her two kids that make her laugh till her stomach hurts,she have a husband who love her in a way she never thought she would ever be loved.All those are her answered prayers,her fulfilled wishes.
She finished and closed the laptop sighing as a smile caress her lips.Yusuf passed her a glass of water and paracetamol which she gratefully took.
"You are the best husband in the world!" She stated hugging him and he smiled "Because I have the best wife in the world!"
They both went to the balcony and sat down.They cuddled up in a blanket while sitting down and Yusrah kept her head on his shoulder.
They stared at the stars and moon in the quite night.Each other's presence is all that matters.
"One night." Yusrah stated "Iman is right,one night can change everything.It happened to us too." She stated and he nod his head.
"One morning,one afternoon,one evening,one night.They are all it takes for everything to change."
He kissed her forehead as he smiled "I love you Yusrah Muhammad." He stated still smiling and she raised her head to look at him "I love you too Yusuf Abdul-aziz."
One thing she love about their relationship is the way it gets stronger with each passing day,they never miss a chance to tell each other about their love,through actions and by saying it.
Yusuf laughed "I thought "I am in love with you" is more affectionate." He teased and she punched his shoulder harshly "Stop teasing me!"
He let out a laugh as he hug her "No guarantee."
They both kept quite staring into space "Broken is beautiful." Yusuf stated "It really is."
"Being broken is not an easy thing,but picking yourself up and fixing all your shattered pieces is what is beautiful.Rising up again despite being broken,mustering up a smile and moving forward.A broken person never become normal again,what matters is that the person didn't let the word broken define him/her."
Yusrah nodded her head "Just take a look at us." She stated and he nod his head "We are beautifully broken."
Silence prevailed between both of them as the breeze of the night kept slapping them,a contented smile grace their lips as they remembered how they went through it all and came out strong.
"I love you."
"I love you more."
"No, I love you more!"
"You know that I love you more!"
"No,I am the one who love you more!"
"Gosh,this is not necessary Yusuf.What matters is we love each other!"
"You called me Yusuf? What?!"
"Sorry,habibi."
They all bursted out laughing as they hugged each other tighter.
One night was all it took.For it to begin and probably end.

8 177Coalescence of Two Lifetimes
Cilen was you typical, run-of-the-mill kinda guy. Well, until his parents passed away when he was 17 forcing him to learn to grow up. Fast. He figured it wouldn't be that bad. He had a house, he had an inheritance, he had friends that kept him company. And at first, it really wasn't anything But sometimes, the loneliness just gets to you. Sometimes, the expectation to not disappoint just gets to you. Sometimes, life just gets to you. And it brought Cilen to his knees, lamenting, cursing, questioning, "why?" "Why did his parents pass away as they did, forcing him to fend for his own?" "Why wasn't he born in a rich household, with a silver spoon in his mouth that catered to his every need?" "Why was every step forwards so difficult, in this accursed society?" He wished that everything would be easy, like inside the worlds of the wuxia novels that he had grown up reading. Special constitution, lucky breaks, fast powerup, get all the chicks and defeat the big evil guy. Simple, easy, satisfying. But life ain't cut out to be that way. The main actors were already set, and there was no changing them. Unless, you moved to a different stage... But this ain't one of your friendly neighborhood transmigrations. It rewards those that are patient, creative and willing to adapt. But perhaps Cilen is able to make use of this opportunity and become something more. _______________________________________________________________________________________________ This story is a personal love letter to all the pieces of fiction that I have read. Its a culmination of the things that made me laugh, cry and smile when I first read them and It has been a personal wish to craft a story that makes me feel the way I did when reading those stories for the first time. Its gonna be a slow ride but worth it. Promise. Photo by Johannes Plenio on Unsplash
