《Keeping It Halal》You Are My Sunshine

I woke up at 2 PM. "Baby?" I asked, yawning. Marwan immedietly opened his eyes. "One more hour? Three? I'm tired." He chuckled. I cupped my hands on his chubby cheeks. "I love you Mariam." He said, looking at me. "Me two," I said. "But we have to get ready to eat breakfast. You made a reservation at I Hop, right?" He nodded. I got up and went to get ready into this:

Makeup

Outfit

Hijab

And Marwan got dressed into this:

"Oh my God, men's outfits are SO boring!" I said. He picked my outfit and I picked his. "Now I know why women take SO LONG to get ready!" He chuckled. I hopped on his back, surprising him and then he ran around the house like a little kid. "MARWAAAAAN! OH MY GOD YOUR SO FAST!!! YOU'RE GONNA DROP MEEEE!" I laughed. He dumped me on the bed and I pouted. "Baba, you hurt my head." I said, immitating a little kid's voice. "Awwww, let me kiss your booboo." He said, kissing my forehead. I grabbed his neck and he held me- My legs were around his waist and my arms around his neck. He started to twirl me so fast, I almost fell! We both laughed.

"I'm so glad to be your Husband." He said. "Yea, me too, but we gotta go!" I rushed, grabbing our coats."

*AT THE RESTAURANT*

"Mmmmm! I love these crepes!" I exclaimed. "Yea same. Well, where do you want to go for our honeymoon? I promise you that Inshallah, we will travel the world, just where do you want to go first?" He asked me, holding my hands in his. "Um, maybe Paris? Paris France?" I asked. "Yea that's a beautiful city. I mean, we do both speak French." He remarked. "Yea. Oh and also, I set the Youtube channel up! It's called Marwan X Mariam. You like it?" I asked him. "Yea I really do!" He said. "Kay, so where do you want to live? I found a couple of great houses-" "Marwan! Move out? Now?!" I interupted. "No it's like- Well yea, we can move out from our childhood houses if you want." Marwan shrugged. "But Marwan I..Can we please just talk about this at the hotel?" I sighed. "Yes. I just...I want you to be happy, Baby." He said. "I AM happy. With you and everything. I just don't think that we're ready to take the next step." I said. "Kay. Let's talk about this later. Do you wanna go on a walk?" He asked. "I'm tired still. Can we watch a movie or something?" I yawned. Marwan nodded and smiled at me, which I returned.

When we got at the hotel, we immedietly flopped on the bed. I turned the T.V on and saw that Vampire Diaries was playing. "Vampire diaries?" I asked him. "Oh yea!" He said. He muzzled his face into my kneck. "So you wanna talk now?" He asked, voice muffled. "Mhm," I said. "So I didn't want to because I'll miss my parents and siblings and stuff...But mostly because people see me as WAY under your league and because if we buy a really good house, they'll think that I am not paying; you are." I sighed. "First of all, who says that?" He asked carassing my cheek. "Well, Kareem, Raya an bunch of people from their friend group." I said. "What? I thought Kareema APPOLAGIZED to you!" He exclaimed. "Well apparently, she still bullies me online," I started. "But you know what? Let's buy the house." I smiled. He smiled back at me and took out his phone. "Ok so here are the different houses. I like them all, so YOU pick which one YOU want." He said. "I legit feel like I am a spoiled Princess." I exclaimed. "Well, you ARE my Princissa." He said.

Here are the houses:

House 1

House 2

House 3

House 4

House 5

House 6

House 7

House 8

"Babe. They're SO big!" I exclaimed. "Well guess what? They all have five rooms; except house 2. "I want house 5." I said.

Here is house 5:

"Ok then, we're buying it."

*AT TANTE LUSHI AND KHALO RAMI'S HOUSE*

"Wow so you're getting a house Inshallah? Mashallah." Tante Lushi said, getting the dinner table set up with Mama. "Let me help." I said. "La la la ya aroosa 'No no no you newly wed bride'! You have to relax. There might be a baby on the way." Mama and Tante Lushi said. "Mama!" Marwan and I both said to our mothers. "But I'd like one." Marwan smirked. May and Adel laughed so hard, that they almost fell. "May's already pregnant. It will add a burden when May has her baby and people come to see the both of us. It is supposed to be MAY and her Husband and Baby's special day." I explained. "So what's the gender anyway?" Tala asked. "Um, a girl! We found out a week ago but wanted to keep it a surprise." May said. She's been pregnant for 6 months now; and Marwan and I have been married for 4 months. We still haven't gotten the house because it was under renovation (Marwan and I wanted it to look different on the inside). "So they name choices that we have are: Sarah, Reema, Taleen, Hajar, Yara, Maya and Yumna." Adel said. "Oooo I LOVE the name Maya! And I love Yumna," I exclaimed. "But you two do whatever you like." I finished off. Just then, I got a work call. I stepped outside. Oh and by the way, I am a University Proffesor in a university in London Ontario, where we all live. I wanted to be close to home. I still haven't started teaching yet though. I answered my phone. It was a call from the dean, Dean Hardy.

DH: Hello?

M: Hello! Dean Hardy, how are you?

DH: Great. Well I just wanted to let you know that you start work tomorrow.

M: But why would you let me know on such short notic-

DH: Bye Mrs Ayman.

"Ugh! I HATE people like that!" I yelled. "Bae don't say the word hate. Say I dislike, but-" "Marwan. I start work. TOMORROW!" I interupted, groaning. "Come on, let's just go inside, ok?" He asked me, leading me inside. "Marwan? If I got a role in a movie or something, what would be your reaction?" I asked. "I'd be so proud of you." He said. He put his hand on my cheek and quickly kissed me. "Marwan. Marwan not here." I scolded, before we were interupted by the rest of the family. We immedietly turned our attention to the fam. "It- I- We- It's not what it looks like!" Marwan exclaimed. "Yes it is." I laughed and quickly pecked his lips. The whole family burst out in laughter. "Plus, you're my Husband, REMEMBER?!" I laughed.

Since Baba,Mama, Tala, Ahmed, Adel and May were leaving to Sudan in three days and just came to visit a week ago, we didn't live with them for now; we lived with Tante Lushi and Khalo Rami. Marwan and I went upstairs to our room (his old room😏) and decided to watch the last episode of Vampire Diaries (yes, we didn't finish it YET).

Hair (I CUT MYSELF SOME BANGS N STRAIGHTENED IT A BIT)

"Ugh, I'm tired." I yawned after we finished the episode. "Good night Habibti." Marwan said. "Good night Hayati."
