So you want to know her name? Hakan wishpered in Doll's ears.
Well, Alia is my childhood friend. "We used to play together every day," he said to her, and Aliana smiled to hear this.
Let me guess, you are Gulnoor, right? Do you recognise me? Aliana asked Doll and touched her cheeks.
Ummm...no... I'm Doll. But how do you know my real name? Did I ever meet you? Doll asked with curiosity.
Yes, I last saw you when you were 4 years old. At that time, you were a cute fat baby, but now you look gorgeous like me. What's the secret, sweetheart? Aliana said, winking her eyes.
You are smart too. I know why you are buttering me, "Doll" replied.
"What? I'm not buttering you up," Aliana said.
You are doing it, but I'm telling you one thing: I will never give you my Amca (uncle). Remember that? Doll got closer to her and whispered in her ears that her uncle could not hear.
Before Aliana gives a good reply to her, Idris comes towards them, and Hakan tells him to sit next to him. Idris nodded and sat next to him.
As-salamu alaykum, I'm Idris. "To Aliana," Idris said.
Aliana smiled and said, "Walekum assalam. I remember you, Idris-al-Hashmi, the Pakistani boy. "
Idris was shocked by hearing that, and something clicked in his mind that the word "Pakistani boy," He quickly replied, "OMG, Alia sister, I am sorry I had not recognised you." "Where have you been for all these days?" If I'm not wrong, I haven't seen you for years.
Ummm... finally, you recognised me. Otherwise, I will have to introduce myself. I went abroad for my higher studies. By the way, I remembered you and your love for Urdu. Can you speak Urdu with me? It's been a long time since I spoke Urdu.
Wait, what did you say, Idris? "Aliana is your aunt, not your sister," Hakan clarified.

Nooo, but she doesn't look like Aunty, Doll replied, and Idris nodded.
Oh, you mean I look like an uncle type? Hakan inquired in a mockingly angry tone and raised his left eyebrow. For your kind information, she is just 2 years younger than me.
It's not my fault if you become an uncle at a young age, but you are handsome, so don't worry, Doll replied.
Hakan smiled, and Aliana started laughing and said, "I don't think your uncle is handsome, so don't tell a lie for his sake." It's bad, don't you know?
Three of them were stunned to hear that, and Idris responded, "I think if anyone is lying here, it's you, sister." Hakan Chachu (uncle) is so handsome.
Hakan stood up and said, in a mockingly tone, "Come closer and look carefully." Then you will know how handsome I am.
"Not interested," she replied.
"You will," he responded.
Amca... Don't waste time. Do you remember that you promised us for a party, and it's already 10:00 pm? Doll interrupted them.
Well, a party, but we have already planned a long drive. Next week we will go for a party. What do you think, Hakan? Aliana said.
I don't have any problem. Today, I'm yours. I will do what you say, my honour. Hakan laughed and said the last sentence. Then he turned to Doll and said, "Don't look at me like this. I remember my promise. I will take you both with me and Aliana. So hurry up, go and get ready. We will be out in 10 minutes.
Okay, Amca, Doll replied and ran towards her room, and Idris followed her.
Hakan then looked at Aliana and said, "Come, let's meet my mom. She will be happy to see you. She missed you so much.
I missed her too, Aliana replied, and followed him.
Hakan, many things have changed, like this portrait, which was not there before, and the dining hall's design has also changed, she said to him, looking everywhere.

Hakan responded, "Yeah, just like you."
You should understand why I changed and why I went abroad to study. She replied, "There is nothing to be explained, as I have explained to you many times." She flipped her hair, which came in on her face.
But, I didn't get that, he replied in an angry voice.
"Hakan, please, not again. I am here to have a good time, not to explain things to you. Don't spoil it with your angry nature," she interrupted him.
Okay, but you have to explain it asap. I know you are hiding something from me, but I'm Hakan Hashmi. I will find out soon.
Then Hakan knocked on his mother's room. Her mother was relaxing on the bed and holding a magazine.
Hakan said, "I have a surprise for you," and entered the room.
Oh, my son, what is that? She replied with a big smile and stood up.
Hakan nodded his head, then Aliana entered the room.
Selam, Aunt Sayeeda. I am very happy to see you. Aliana greeted her and held her hand and kissed her palm.
Oh, my beautiful daughter, Walekum assalam, I missed you so much. When did you come? Is your course completed? She asked and instructed her to sit on the couch.
Yes, my graduation is completed, and I really missed you too, aunty. Aliana smiled and hugged her.
Aw, my beautiful daughter. How are you? And your family? She asked.
Aliana responded, "I'm good, and they were good, but I'm back, so there's good times ending here and bad times starting."
What? Why are you saying that? She inquired.
Mom, next time you interview her, we are going for a long drive, so bye bye.
Aliana replied, "I will tell you later, aunty Sayeeda.
Okay, take care of yourself, and don't forget to recite dua before going out; she ordered them like she always does.
Hakan and Aliana saw each other's faces. Then Hakan said, with some embarrassment, "Ummmm... actually Mom, I forgot. Aliana, do you remember the dua?"
No, I don't remember. Aliana replied in an embarrassing tone.
Okay, I'm telling you, recite with me. They nodded their heads and Hakan sat next to Aliana.

Here’s the actual hadith from Sunan Abi Dawud #5095:
The Prophet (SAWS) said: When a man goes out of his house and says: “In the name of Allah, I trust in Allah; there is no might and no power but in Allah,” the following will be said to him at that time: “You are guided, defended and protected.” The devils will go far from him and another devil will say: How can you deal with a man who has been guided, defended and protected?
At the end, she said to them, "This dhikr should be a practise we should do daily." They smiled back.
I will learn a lot from you again. You are my sweet Aunt Sayeeda. "I can't explain how much I've missed you in these past 3 years," Aliana said in a sentimental tone. Her eyes were wet as she would cry at any time.
Oh, my dear Aliana, you are like my daughter. You have returned, so why don't you shift here again? As you usually do on your weekends, we'd like it if you agreed to live here with us. Sayeeda Bibi asked her by holding her hands.
I would love that, but this time I want to face them. She replied.
Amca, where are you? Please don't try to hide. A girl's voice was heard from the outside of the room.
Oh, it's Doll. Let's go, Alia. They are finding us. Hakan said to Aliana and turned to his mother, "Mom, take care, bye. We have to leave now, and I'm taking Doll and Idris along with us. " Okay...
Aliana hugged her. Sayeeda Bibi nodded her head and said, "May Allah protect you all."

Who Fixes Books Anyway?
On the pretense of a raise, the relatively new employee Pernie is called in to talk with her superiors. NOTE: This is a short story written for a class I took recently. As a result of deadlines, it does not possess the quality (or length) that I would like and is rather thrunkated. Perhaps sometime far in the furture I'll fix it up. For now, I have much more important things to work on, such as my other fiction.
