To him, it felt like an eternity between the moment Morad had said his piece and the reply coming from Amila. But she finally replied.
"I'd like that." Her smile filled his world.
In his mind, fireworks were going off. Church choirs were praising The Lord with joyful singing and clapping, flowers were blooming after a long winter...
Ok... take down a notch dude... and stop staring at her... say something...
"Good!" Ameen replied after the few seconds it took him to fully understand the implications of what had transpired.
Is that the best I could come up with? "Good"?... ugh...
"So, um... how about supper tomorrow? I'll pass by your quarters and pick you up? Wear something summery..." His smile was genuine, he was very happy.
Better... now keep it up... WAIT A SECOND? Tomorrow? Did I sound too eager now?... oh shoot... too late!
