Chapter 2
Yusuf's POV.
"Alas! I'm free!" The meeting was so boring. Still standing in his chair he called Rim his driver to pick him up and within thirty minutes he had arrived.
"Good afternoon, sir," he greeted and as usual Yusuf nodded his head to acknowledge his greeting. He didn't give a damn about anyone except his family. His family is his priority.
"Go," Yusuf commanded Rim. Entering the back seat and rolling up the window. Yusuf was busy typing on his phone and when he raised his head to look outside the window, he saw an angel!-a very beautiful angel playing and laughing hysterically under the pouring rain. His blood was pumping vigorously; his cold heart beating widely and his mouth wide apart. His mind was screaming, 'she is mine! I will take her, love her, cherish her, protect her...' "Stop the car now!" he growled out, not wanting his angel to disappear. Rim parked at the roadside. Yusuf watched his angel, how she was laughing in the rain. Within no time, he had started laughing together with her. "Excuse me, sir, I hope there's no problem?" Rim commented looking at Yusuf through the rear mirror. He didn't bother answering him, because he was busy watching his beautiful angel.

Reaching the office, Yusuf called Royhan, his best friend.
"What's up guy, how are you doing?" He said through the phone.
"I'm fine but I need some help from you. Can you help me with Ali Sofia's detail, please?" he had asked the ice-cream shop earlier about her name.
"Wow! You just begged? I can't believe it! Am I dreaming?" He said, sounding genuinely surprised before continuing. "I hope there is no problem?" "No, there isn't. Thanks, bro."
'I can't believe I begged him,' Yusuf muttered to himself as he dropped the phone on the desk before adding, "But if it's because of my angel, I will do anything". A few minutes later, a message popped on his phone-a message from Royhan. Name: Sofia Ali
Family: Parent alive and one brother
School: High School Graduate
Friend: Maryam
Age: 18
Relationship: single
After reading her profile, Yusuf decided to call his father well knowing he would help him out.
"Salam dad," he greeted.
"Uhm, I want to tell you something..." he trailed off, tugging his tie.
"Yes, tell..." the dad encouraged.
"Uhm... You remember that day when you and mum were hard on me to get married?" Yusuf asked rather nervously. "Yes... so?".
Urg! Why is it so difficult?.
"Actually I found someone." He said and closed his eyes in nervousness. Yusuf explained.
"Really? Wow! Who is that unlucky girl?" Dad asked playfully.
"Dad, I am serious." Yusuf exclaimed.
"Sorry. Ok tell".
"Her name is Sofia Ali," Yusuf revealed. and told him about her family and everything and he was pleased.
"Ok, I will try contacting her family," his dad promised.
"Thanks dad."

"It's a pleasure son." He could hear the smile in his voice.
Yusuf's dad was about to disconnect when Yusuf interrupted.
"Dad, wait! I have another request," he cut in before hastily adding, "I want this wedding to happen before next week". He couldn't wait to have his angel with him.
"Why? Is everything alright?" he asked curiously.
"Yes dad.' Yusuf assured.
"Oh, so my son is getting desperate to have her with him so soon?' the dad teased.
"Dad!" he said in a groan accompanied with a short laugh.
The door to his office was knocked and he commanded the person to enter. His secretary - labibah entered. A middle aged woman who was dressed in a white Shirt and a black pencil skirt. Her heels clicked the ground as she walked in elegantly. She was like a mother figure to Yusuf at work. She had Yusuf respect, she had been working with Yusuf's father before he retired.
"Sir, you've an appointment at 1:05 pm" She read out of the booklet while he grunted in reply.
"Is that all?" he asked tiredly, all he wanted now was his princess.
She was one in millions.
"Yes sir" the middle aged woman chirped.
"OK" he said dismissively as she wanted to open the door, he stopped her "wait". "Sir?".
"Please cancel all meetings today" he spoke and stood up before walking out.
He needed to clear his head and the only way to do that, was to have a long drive. Then he thought of visiting his friend - Royhan who was a computer guru.
He arrived at his friend's office, the receptionist greeted him while opening up her cleavage and fluttering her artificial eyelashes. He rolled his eyes and walked to the elevator.
Why can females understand that no man knows what a cheap product is? He thought.
The elevator dung and he went out of it only to meet with his friend who was putting on his Harry Potter's glasses.
"Bro" they hugged each other before Royhan turned to just the office.
They entered, Royhan called his PA to bring them refreshments.
"Sophia Ali, Uhn?" Royhan asked inquisitively because the Yusuf he knew does not date or have flings. Even though he was an arrogant guy when first known.
"Yeah" he caressed his smooth beard.
"She is beautiful and quite knowledgeable. She is a good catch" Royhan complimented while Yusuf scowled at him.
"Don't you dare go there" he glared, "she is mine".
"ooooh, what did I miss?".
"Nothing" Yusuf bit out.
"Okay bro, what is the deal because I know you don't date?" he spoke with seriousness while he shrugged his shoulders.
"I saw her this morning after my meeting with the Russian company. She is beautiful, she looks carefree with this money. She has a sense of purity and innocence around her" he wetted his lip, "I want her" he announced. "You know she's not a property to want".
"I know that's why I want to marry her," he responded.
"What?" Royhan's mouth was opened because he was surprised and shocked.
"Marry her".
