  &quot;Can't you wear something on top of that?&quot; He peacefully asked and she scrunched up her face in annoyance. She knew this was going to happen if something was related to Mujaheed, he was definitely going to annoy her one way or the other.
  &quot;It s so early in the morning, Mujaheed. No one will be outside, besides this area is so silent that you d think all these mansions are empty, and we ll be back before they start taking their kids to school and also themselves to work. Can we just leave?&quot; She asked with eagerness.
  &quot;I'll have to take your hijab with me, incase something happens outside.&quot; She rolled her eyes on his retreating back as he went into the room and when he came out, he was holding her hijab in his hand, she wanted to strangle him alive.

  He looked askance at her before he pointed at the bed for her, &quot;I m going to bed of course, what else does it look like I m doing?&quot;
  She lifted her hand up to stop him already, she didn t want a fight this night, she wanted nothing but to sleep while relinquishing on the feelings Adam s words erupted from her heart, she didn't want any more problem now.
  &quot;Please, I'm not interested in any sarcasm, Mujaheed. As you can see, I'm already on the bed, where do you want me to sleep?&quot; She fixed back her glass and fixed a pointed look his way.
  &quot;Did I ask you to sleep somewhere else? I'm just going to sleep on my bed, that's all.&quot; He made sure he emphasized on the word 'my bed  and she immediately rolled her eyes at him.
  &quot;I know it s your bed, you don t have to rub it on my face, o
