-So, I decides to start off w Marwan's POV bc, I thought it would be important in this chapter! Enjoy😋 btw, Mariam's mom's name is acc Suhayla; I keep saying Sumaya loll! Also, the last question in the other chapter was asked by ! Go read her book, Zayn!

"So I was walking to th-" "YES, we all know, you were walking to the gift shop. We heard this story a MILLION times! The world doesn't need to hear this!" I interrupted my cousin, Amani. We are supposedly getting married in six months or so. I DON'T WANT TO THOUGH! She is SO annoying and never stops talking! We were on a face-time, that MY mom and aunt (Amani's mom) set up. She keeps ranting. "So my old boyfriend- Oh well he broke up with me, but the fourth one cheated on me." She said. "Oh, I WONDER why." I said sarcastically. Ugh, I KNEW why! "So, we officialz or WHAT?!" She asked in her cheesiest voice. "No and bye!" I slammed my laptop. So many bad things were happening to me right now! I just couldn't deal with it! It was too much on my mind😓. I headed to my bathroom and decided to shave. I took my razor out and shaving cream. I don't have a HUGE beard and moustache, just a few little hairs; you get what I mean? So I took out my razor and blueberry scented shaving cream (WHAT I LUV BLUEBERRY!) and started to shave. I accidentally cut my finger with the razor. "Oww!" I winced out of pain. "Ouch." I said again. Just then, there was a knock at my door. "Come in." I said, still in pain😑. "It's me, Baba ya Habibi. Are you ok?!" Baba asked, coming to my side. "I'm fine." I said. "Kay, come on down and wear some great clothes. Dalia, Mariam and Mohamed are here." He said back. "Yes! Dalia and Mohamed!!! And....Ugh, MARIAM." I said the last part in a bored tone. "Come on Marwan. I know your past HASN'T been the best, but try." Baba said back. I told him about everything. Baba patted my back and headed out. I got some casual clothes on and headed downstairs.

Can you please pass me the salad?" I asked Dalia. After I poured some salad on my plate, I started eating in delight. "Alsalamualakum." Said a voice I kind of reconized. I turned around. Then I saw him. Same curly hair. Same bright beautiful brown eyes. Same charming features. He looked the same but even more manly. And Mashallah- He looked more handsome than ever! I couldn't belive it. After all this time i've found him; well, met him...not really found him....

*FLASH-BACK*

I didn't know about all this...And he asks me to forgive him?! Well, the Prophet said that, "There is nothing better than saying you're sorry." I didn't know though. "Wait...Why did you come here?" I asked him. "I um...Well I had to apologize..." He said. "I forgive you." I said. He beamed immediately. I gave him a hug and then Dalia came in and said, "Marwan and Mariam sittin' in a tree, K.I.S-" "Aye no! Dalia we ain't dating!" He said, shutting her up. "Yea we're just friends." I said to her. "Yea. Just friends." He repeated after me.

"Habibi! Come, have a seat." Khalto Lushi said. "Marwan listen I-" I started saying really quickly. "No. No, save it please honey....We want to eat dessert." Khalto Lushi interrupted. Sheesh. That was rude....

*AFTER DESSERT*

"Well, Timmies on meee!" Dalia said. We all nodded our heads and got up. Khalto Lushi motioned for Marwan to sit down, but Khalo Rami told him to catch up with us. What is wrong with that WOMEN?! She has to give him space!

Once we got into Tim Horton's, we decided to eat outside of the place, since there was an outside pavilion kind of thing. I'm surprised it was open till' now😅! "Kay so your orders are 2 Iced Caps, A Chocolate Creamy Chill, A French Vanilla and four Strawberry Danishes?" Dalia started. "Kay Mo and I will get them!" Dalia said, pulling Mo. "Aye- ay- oi- OUCH!" Mohamed winced. Dalia dashed back before Mo and whispered something in my ear. "MAKE A MOVE AND FIX THINGS." Well, she was right...."HEY! That's why you ran w-" -"SORRY GOTTA GO!" Dalia interupted. I rolled my eyes and took a deep breath. "Look Marwan. I-I-I'm sorry, ok? I just...I couldn't think of Abdu and I breaking up....And even if I said you were my cousin, he wouldn't belive me because he's so stubborn. I owe you a huge apology and....Sorry." I said.

Well, she DID apologize. BUT, that doesn't take me back to liking her. "Well when I came to appolagize to you, i felt the same way....So I acept your appology!" I said. She started laughing then crying. "Awww don't cry, Love!" I said to her🥺. She looked at me happily and opened her mouth to say something, then shut it. "I'm glad we're friends now. BEST friends." She said and gave me a quick hug.
