Abdullah ibn Amr reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, was upon the pulpit and he said: ارْحَمُواتُرْحَمُواوَاغْفِرُوايَغْفِرْاللَّهُلَكُمْ
Be merciful to others and you will receive mercy. Forgive others and Allah will forgive you.

Ameera's POV- It's been a week since I got to know about Nina and Aiden's secret relationship. And honestly, it's getting harder to ignore both of them. In the past few weeks that I got to know Aiden, I understood that he is an amazing person and that he is good for my best friend. I couldn't ask for a better guy for her. But it still doesn't hurt any less that they hid it from me. I know that at some point I'll have to move on and forget about it and start talking to both of them. Cause let's be honest, I can't lose both of them because of such a small mistake.
While I was distancing myself from them, Ahmed has helped me a lot. At first, I couldn't stop crying cause the pain of betrayal was too much. Then he advised me to start praying and making dua regularly.
Frankly speaking after praying and making dua, it helped me calm down a lot and I started feeling better. He also advised me, how I shouldn't just ignore them without hearing them out first and how it's good to forgive for such small things even if the pain is too much.
And yeah I have been working on forgiving them and I think I'm ready to hear them out and let them know they are forgiven. Today is Saturday which means it's the weekend and university starts on Monday. Monday after classes the first thing I'll do is hear their point of view and try to understand them. I know I have already forgiven them in my heart but I will make sure they both know it too. With this thought I let sleep consume me.
I woke up around 12:30, I tend to sleep more during weekends. Just as I finished having brunch, it was already dhuhr prayer time. I prayed and made long dua not just for me and my family but for those people too who have no one to make Dua for them, for those who are misguided, for those who are suffering from pain but don't express to anyone or have anyone to express to, for those who are poor, for those who are sick... My list was really long. I never prayed for anyone other than my family before but seeing Ahmed, and the way he put others in prayer before himself is making me change too.
Speaking of Ahmed, my phone starts vibrating. I check my phone to see him calling me. 'Did we plan something to do today and I forgot? He doesn't call me if it's not important' I thought to myself before picking up his call.
"Hello?" I asked in a confused tone still thinking what the reason could be.
"Assalam Alaikum" he said.
"Walaikum Assalam. Is everything okay? You never call me if it's not important" I voice out my thoughts.
"Alhamdulillah everything is okay, I was calling to check how you are doing" he replied.
"Oh, Alhamdulillah I'm doing better. Praying and making Dua is helping me a lot" I said.
"That's good to hear! Want to hang out in a cafe?" He asked.
"Sure. What time?" I questioned.
"How about after 20 minutes?" he asked.
I replied with an "okay, see you there. Allah Hafiz" and disconnected the call.
I was still curious to know why he abruptly called like that and asked me to meet him. Guess the only way to find out is by going there...
