Ameera's an 18 year old girl. Born Muslim but wasn't practicing Islam properly. Shy, insecure and selfless. She is in her teen years wanting to enjoy like all the other teenagers.
Meet Ahmed. A 19 year old boy practicing Islam. Quiet, kind, caring a...
Ahmed's POV- For the past couple of months, I have been having trouble controlling my actions around Ameera. Ya Rabbi! Whenever she is around me I don't know why my heart starts beating like crazy. I know I have a crush on her but the feelings I had from other crushes are far different than this one.
Ameera and I got real close when she was having issues regarding Nina not trusting her enough to tell Ameera about her relationship with Aiden. I saw how hurt she got and it was hurting me to see her like that. I knew I had to help them become friends again and while doing so it helped Ameera with her deen. I'm really happy and proud of the person she is now. Kind, selfless, and just Mashaa Allah so beautiful. She is an amazing friend and I'm afraid if she got to know my feelings for her and she doesn't feel the same then I'll lose her as a friend. It's so frustrating. My sister enjoys teasing me with her name. Gah! I just hope I don't do anything to hurt Ameera and In Shaa Allah I'll do everything in a halal way.
Today Ameera's parents invited us for dinner. I'm so nervous. I have been pacing back and forth for like an hour now. Urrghhhh I don't know what to wear and I'm so scared I'll mess it all up. What if I do something stupid in front of her parents? What if- No I have to stop thinking about all this.
"Um, bro you good? You have been pacing back and forth here for an hour now? You need help selecting your outfit?" Taskeen asked me.
"Tas forget the outfit. What if I mess up real bad in front of her and her parents? What will I do then? Gosh, my head is going to blast thinking so much. What will I do?" I asked whined to her.
"Look at me bro. Remember no parent or girl likes any guy pretending to be someone else. Just be you dude. I'm sure Ameera likes you-"
I cut her off saying "Yeah. Like me as a friend, I know"
She glared at me for cutting her off like that "she likes you yes, but not as a friend you idiot" she rolled her eyes "I have seen the way she looks at you...her gaze full of respect, admiration, and love. She is totally in love with you dude and if you can't see that then Allah help us. I'll help you by hitting your head on the wall for you. Okay?" She started making fun of me.
"Sis your not helping" I started whining.
"Chill I'm just kidding. But for real just be yourself around them and I'm sure everything will turn out good and have faith in Him" she said and it helped me calm down instantly. This is why sisters are the best.
"Gosh, your a life saver sis. Love you" I hugged her.
"Okay goofball. Now get ready" she started leaving and I asked her if I should wear casual or formal.
"Go for formal but not too formal" this is what she said and left. Bruh that was so cryptic. -.- I had to google to understand what she meant. Finally, I chose my outfit and I think it's not that bad. Wish me luck guys. I don't wanna mess this up...

I was a nervous wreck by the time we got here and Aiden's and Nina's teasing was not helping AT ALL. Urrrghhh I need to go washroom and fix myself cause I'm a sweating mess right now.
I was coming out of the washroom, I froze when I saw her. Woah! This was the first time I saw her in an ethnic dress and Wallah she was looking so beautiful. Masha Allah! She was blushing. Bruh that's good right, that's a sign she likes me right? Ya Rabbi what's wrong with me -.- I need to stop.
Finally, her parents asked us to join them in the backyard. I was really impressed by the arrangement. I mean I know I'm rich and she was middle class. But damn this was good.
This was one thing that Ameera and our friends didn't know about me. My dad was the CEO of Idris corp. I was next in line. My parents wanted me to go to Harvard University. But I chose to stay here and study. I didn't want anyone to know my real identity cause it already created lots of issues during school time. I went to a rich school and over there everyone made friends according to a rich status. I was so done with all the girls being behind me for money and guys wanting to be my friends just for my rich status. It got so toxic so I decided to not tell anyone about my family being rich till I know they became my friend for me and not the rich me.
We all were having a good time talking. I kept glancing over Ameera. I bet her dad caught me staring at her. And when he asked me about my interest in any girl I couldn't stop myself from choking on my food. I'm trapped. Yaani how do I tell him I was in love with his beautiful daughter. I'm so dead. You all please pray for me to not screw this up.
