I enjoy reading books as I listen to soothing music. My favorite book is your face. My favorite page is in your eyes. My favorite chapter is in your emotions. My ultimate pleasure in your smile as I listen to the music of your laughter. Forever my favorite book. It's called Dove.

HAMDAN'S P.O.V
The image of her beautiful face luminated by the candle, filled with the specs and mirage of the tears from her beautiful onyx eyes was stuck in his mind.She was fully covered as always and the only part of her that was visible to my eyes was her face and palms. Though her back was to the door I could clearly see her image reflected by the mirror from the glass door of the drawer

THIRD PERSON'S P.O.VHamdan's control was slipping away very fast as he watched his love tear up near him. Given as it was the weather outside didn’t help the fact that he yearned to take away her pain, he wished to hold her in his arms and pat her head, he wanted to kiss away her worries and tell her that all will be well with time.It was chilling cold outside and Humeyra’s small frame curled up under the covers of the duvet was the most tempting sight at that very moment. He repeatedly uttered the Ta'wuth under his breath but it was as if the shaytwaan was exerting all his might to tempt him, and tempted he was. He gathered the courage and asked her if he could lay down next to her on the bed. He heard a surprised gasp coming from Humeyra whose expression was like a child caught with her hands in the cookie jar. Guilty.Humeyra looked guilty because that was exactly what she was thinking of. She knew that he was her greatest weakn
HER SECRETS, HIS LOVE The Green-eyed monster
It doesn't come in colors but waves. Doesn't know reason but desire. Doesn't care the method but the result. Not from Allah but shaytwaan. It is the green-eyed monster. Jealous, envy if you may call it that. It's more about why not mine, why someone else's. Why does someone possess something? Why don’t I?~HumeyraTHIRD PERSON'S P.O.V"Asalamu aleikum warahmatullahi wabarakatu ya Umma. I have missed you a lot”. Hamdan embraced his mother as he stayed in her arms with his eyes closed while yalina joined him by embracing her mother from the left side of her shoulder. Umm Hamdan otherwise known as Hafsa was a very beautiful woman who was knowledgeable enough in both the matters of religion and modernity.She was neither plump nor slender. Just the right body size for her middle height statue. She was the heart throb of many during her youthful years but now, she was the name that beat in the heart of Abu Hamdan. The first love to her

As they settled down, Hamdan took a deep breath and started his little yet significant speech.HAMDAN'S P.O.VI took a deep breath and started my heartfelt declarations and sincere confession.

It's easy to earn someone's trust even by deception.It's even easier to lose the said trust which once lost would be very hard to attain.~ HumeyraTHIRD PERSON'S P.O.VIt has been two days since Humeyra talked to her long lost mentor and teacher. When Hamdan found them in their cozy state the whole family had different reactions to them but one stood out yet went unnoticed.Hamdan and his family stayed in Humeyra's room for a few hours to talk to her and get to know her better, however, of course Abu Hamdan hogged most of her time and never left her free from his embrace. Eventually, everyone was contented (though not entirely true for some people in the room) that Humeyra should be given time to contact her guardian and settle her issues with her adopted brother.As the issue was left unattended to so abruptly with no one foreseeing her abduction, Humeyra found some loopholes

On the other hand, he was glad to know that Hamdan will be formally bringing a marriage proposal on that same day.

HER SECRETS, HIS LOVE Getting to know you
Talking about your problems to the right listening ears is half solving it and reducing the burden.~HumeyraTHIRD PERSON'S P.O.VIn one of the prestigious hotel sat three young people: Humeyra, Wahid and Hamdan. Wahid was not yet over the fact that his first love was going to marry someone else. He felt resentful yet his love for her was enough to keep him seated ready to protect her if need be for today he was her Mahram. He was ready to concede to any decision she makes if it made her happy. He was seated far enough from the two to give them some privacy where as he can hear them too.

HER SECRETS, HIS LOVE Hasad
THIRD PERSON'S P.O.VHamdan was in a panicked state while Wahid was on the verge of a breakdown due to the intensity of his guilt for what he had done to his sister before. He had no idea that her past was uglier than the scariest horror movies out there for this was no fiction but a real life experience. It was a wonder she was still sane after witnessing such a gruesome incident which even a grown up won’t be able to handle.Hamdan's dam was overflowing with tears as well. He had rejected her once upon a time without really getting to know her as a person. He had judged her as just another spoilt little brat who had no Hayaa yet what he discovered today pieced his heart as if he had numerous tiny invincible pieces of needle poking at it.He ached for her 10 year old self whereas he felt for the 23year old girl who kept such a dark past buried for 13 long years.
