Lift your words, not your voice.

Every new day brings new strength and thoughts.

You do not always need a plan; sometimes all you need to do is breathe, have faith, and trust, and then let go to see what happens.

Do not stress your fragile heart or disturb your mind; instead, stay positive.

Yumna:
It was tahajud time (prayer in the middle of the night). I awoke a little early, hoping Ahad would come today, no matter what he did. After all, he is my husband, and I miss him terribly. I turned my gaze and saw my best friend, who supported me, sleeping peacefully next to me. Surely she is one of the best. I am happy for her and Imran, and I hope Imran does not hurt her any further.

"The best feeling is when the person you love reciprocates your love."

I woke Aisha up, and we both did ablution and prayed before staying for a few minutes to make supplication; I asked Allah to guide me today so that we could resolve our issues.I have no idea what went wrong or what I did incorrectly.He has never done anything like that since the day of our wedding.

I tried to recall all of the incidents that might have made him angry at me, but I could not understand because we had been fine a week before.

I was taken out of my thoughts when I noticed someone lightly shaking me.

"Just wipe these tears," she said, and I did not even notice I was crying.

"Do you want me to talk to Imran so he can talk to Ahad, as you know they are best friends?"She said this with a concerned expression.

"Let this be between us; it may cause more misunderstandings," I told her, wiping my tears and thanking her for always being there for me.

"What exactly did I do?"I muttered to myself, but she heard me and gave me further explanation, which I accepted.

I just stared at her, knowing that she knew exactly how to comfort someone. "Do not worry, this is a test from Allah. All marriages have ups and downs, and this is your first time," she said.

"I told her what was on my mind and I do really miss him, his voice, his texts, his kindness and the late night talks we used to have. I know, but I hope he comes today."

"Insha'Allah, everything will be alright. Do not worry, everything will work out. Just be patient and speak to him when he arrives. If he is angry, remain composed; you must know that two people cannot be angry at the same time and ask for forgiveness from him. The first person to do so will not be treated unfairly, right?She uttered those words, and I gave her a big hug. I am thrilled Imran found a girl who is so understanding and calm; she is the best for him, do not you think?

"Yes, you are correct. Let us read a short passage from the Qur'an before going to bed." I said to her, and she nodded.

After praying Fajr, the morning's first prayer, we went to bed. When I checked the time, it was 6:30am.
******
It was afternoon I got dressed wore a black and blue light long gown just the one he loves did slight make up all for him, tied matching hijab and waited I had told Aisha to go home as her mum also needed help after alot of convincing that I will be fine she agreed but we kept texting eachother and I made some of his favourite evening meal.

I heard a knock on door I kept my phone aside and smiled.

Finally he has come may be he missed me alot just the way I missed him?

I rushed to open the door I opened and jus4 stood there staring at him he has grown even  more handsome, MashaaAllah black tshirt with jacket on top hair neatly combed laptop bag in his one hand and he just stood without saying anything.

That hurt.

Usually when he came from office I would take his things and kept for him but now I was abit nervous to do that.

May be he was waiting for me to start first move?

"Assalamualeikum,"I greeted him in a soft and low voice I just hope I don't break out infront of him I will show him I am brave and we both can solve this issue whatever he was hiding.

"Waleikumsalam,"He replied as if replying to some any other guy and just looked away.

What was wrong and how do I start?

"Excuse me you are blocking the way I want to pass,"He said in different tone and voice abit raised. I just widened my eyes unable to process this new Ahad.

"We need to talk,"I finally said it and he narrowed his eyes and folded his hands on his chest as if waiting for me to continue.

"Continue as you are wasting my time,"He said and started to move away from door and entered inside he kept the keys on shelf and and went to drink water from table.

"Ahad you could have asked me I would have given you,"No need for that I can do my work myself he drank water while sitting on coach and switched on the tv totally ignoring me.

He didn't even compliment me I did all these for him.

"Tea and your favourite pakoda is ready(an indian potato dish),"I told him and the next words he said left me speechless.

"I have already eaten,"He said and I was just hurt by his words but I tried to control myself.

"Have you eaten?"He asked and I was shocked.

"Why do you care all of sudden?what's wrong with you ?why are you avoiding me?we need to talk and here you keep saying hurtful words?why are you doing this?"I threw all questions whatever was disturbing me but he looked me with blank face at first I saw his face showing emotions but then he quickly masked it.

"Am busy now It's not the time to ask me all these,"He said as if not bothered about what I said at all as if I meant nothig to him.

I knew he cares may be  he's hiding something.

I saw him standing up and starting to go to his room messing his hair as if he was tired.

No we won't go today we need to solve this.

I went and grabbed his hand to stop him from going, no matter what he can't hurt both of us like this.

He did not look up at me even after I apologized, saying, "I am sorry if I have hurt you or wronged you."

What is happening to him? Why is he turning into the haughty, conceited person that the tabloids claimed he was?

I approached him, and he took my hands away from him, telling me to figure out what I had done on my own.

I pleaded with him, "You need to tell me." I was aware that I might end up crying on the ground if this kept up.

Do you realize how much I have missed you?I expressed my feelings to him.

I told him, tears streaming down my cheeks, "I love you so much, Ahad, and I can not stay away from you it hurts please tell me reasons." Finally, I sat on the floor and noticed a shadow moving toward me.

"Stop crying." I detest seeing women cry; they always cry for no reason at all," he remarked, but I could tell he cared because he offered that rationale.

"I will solve the problem if you tell me what went wrong," I told him, but I was curious about what he said after that.

Still standing, he said, "Not everything is about you," and then he sat on the floor and whispered the next phrases into my ears.

"It concerns me, but I can not share that with you right now. Please stop asking me stupid questions and crying all the time," he said before heading to the television.

You can stop crying now, but if you continue to act in this manner, I will find out for myself.
***
I am glad he had dinner with me at home today even though it was already 11:00 p.m., but I waited and waited for him in our room until just as my eyes were about to close, I heard a door crack.

He then made the decision to arrive, and I fell asleep, thinking I would wait and see what he would do.

I would like to open my eyes, but I am curious about what he is going to do when I hear footsteps getting closer.

"I apologize for hurting you, but once you find out what I am hiding, you will hate me," he said in that deep voice that I have grown to love.I was itching to ask him what when I opened my eyes.I chose to give him some space once more, even though I would never, ever hate him.

What made him think and say what he did?Why will I hold a grudge against him?He was sleeping on our bed with his back to me, so I kept thinking about it after I opened my eyes.

"I will find out soon, InshaaAllah," I whispered to myself before falling asleep.
