Chapter 5

Zikr POV's

After a few days,

I was thinking a lot about Dia. I was wondering how my feelings changed from gratitude to love. I know that I can't approach her directly because she will reject it directly.

Today, I am going to have lunch with my parents. I am going to tell them about Dia.

In S nation,

Location:- Zikr ancestral villa

I reached my home and my family butler welcomed me. His name is Mohammed Riaz.

I call him uncle as he is the same age as my father. He is a very loyal and respectful person.

He is a part of my family.

My Butler informed me that my mother is waiting in the dining hall.

I don't have a very big family. My father has one sister. She is married to an influential family.

She has one daughter. Her daughter name is Noor.

My aunt family doesn't visit us anymore except for holidays and special occasions.

She lives in Enation with her family.

I entered the dining room

Conversation between my mom and me.

Zikr- Assalam Walaikum Mother.

Amara(Mom)- Walaikum Assalam Son.

Zikr:- Did I come late?

Amara:- No, not at all. Have a seat.

Zikr:- Where is Dad? What about Grandpa and Grandma?

Amara:- Your Dad will come in a while. He is busy with some work.

Your Grandpa and Grandma went to visit your aunt and uncle.

Zikr:- Okay Mom.Thank you. Let's wait for Dad.

We will all eat together.

After a while, Zeeshan (Zikr Father) reached home. The family had al. Now they are sitting out in the garden having a chat.

Zeeshan:- How is your business son? Is it all good?

Zikr:- Yes, Alhamdullillah. Everything is going well.

Amara:- Son, are you not planning to settle down?

Zikr:- I am thinking about it. And ...

Amara and Zeeshan glanced at each other and looked back at Zikr.

Amara:- And...

Zikr:- I like a girl. Her name is Dia. She is from a middle-class background. She is a practising Muslim. She is quite nice. She lives in A nation with her family. I met her when I went to do business in A nation.

Amara and Zeeshan were are are are quite surprised.

Amara was felt disappointed towards her son.

She thought he would ask about her opinion about his marriage.

Amara:- So Son, You fixed everything in A nation and came here to inform us.

Zikr:- Mom you are misunderstanding and I told you that I met her. But she didn't meet me.

She didn't even notice. I want you to send a proposal to her house from my side. And Certainly, your opinion matter. Everyone opinions matters.

First, you met her and her family and then decide. Now is it okay?

Amara quietly listens to everything that her son said.

Amara- Let me see...

Amara called his son secretary Aziz and asked him to send information about the girl.

After a day, she arrives at A nation. She wants the girl to see Dia.

Amara dressed up quite plain. She wore a plain nude long dress and blackhead scarf.

She normally dresses lavishly but modestly.

Amara arrived in front of the company.

She thought to put on an an an act that she was lost

and want to see her reaction.
