PART VI
A few months have passed since the crazy NonMuslim incidents. Kadafi called the Oranges, SMs, and Admins for a conference meeting. Everyone sat down quietly anxious to hear what bro Kadafi had to say. He slowly walked up to the podium.
Al-Mu’minah: Wonder what’s going on…
Madani: Bet it has to do with those “MSL/MSH” tags…
Al-Zaara: Why’s he walking so slowly? I think he’s aging
Woodrow: It’s about time the issue of that nuisance clickety-clack tapping is going to get addressed!
Fi: Let’s just wait and see inshallah before making assumptions. Inallaha ma'asabireen
Kadafi steps up to the podium, clears his throat, and begins.
Kadafi: Bismillahi arRahman arRaheem…Assalamu Alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu…
Group: Walaikum asalaam wa rahmatullahi wabarakatuh
Madani: *whispers to fi* sounds like we’re going to have a khutbah…
Kadafi: Today, as I look around the room, I see so many growing faces. More importantly there are a few beautiful announcements to be made.
Madani: ALHEMDULILAH!!
Kadafi: uhh…alhemdulilah.
Madani: :-[
Kadafi: Before I begin however, as many of you have been anticipating that announcement about the closure of the Marriage section, I wanted to inform you that it will not be so…
The group starts to whisper amongst themselves.
Kadafi: *clears throat*
The group whisperings stop and attention is returned to the direction of the podium.
Kadafi: As well as the enlightening news, there are also some saddening updates as well. There have been many beautiful memories here in this building. We were blessed to witness a few members convert to Islam through the help of many wonderful brothers and sisters, many changes have been made for the better to keep this forum running, we were able to support an unfortunate orphan boy, and this building has significantly expanded and increased with members and improvements since the day it began. Brother Ansar, who many of you remember as one of the greatest refuters of LI, has completed Hajj.
Group: Mashallah! Alhemdulilah! Subhanallah!
Kadafi: Brother Khaldun is schooling in Saudi Arabia.
Group: Mashallah! Alhemdulilah! Subhanallah!
Kadafi: and now for the saddening news…Alpha Dude has asked to be demoted from his position as a mod.
zAk: Alhemdulilah! :X
Alpha Dude: :mmokay:
Kadafi: And I am resigning as an Administrator..
The group hesitates in a gasp and a few worrisome faces occur amongst the crowd.
Kadafi: Just kidding! *laughs*
*Crickets chirping*
Kadafi: *clears throat* So anyways, I’m not leaving, but two very special brothers are.
Everyone sat deathly quiet, eyes widened, anticipating who these two members were.
Kadafi: *hesitates*
Woodrow: I don’t think my heart can take this, who is it ekhi!?
Kadafi: *sighs* Give glad tidings to brother Far7an and brother zAk for making all of our stays here on LI enjoyable. They will greatly be missed.
Madani: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! *emphasis on the dramatic O’s placed here*
Fi: Subhanallah…
The group talks amongst themselves, misunderstanding the reasons of their departure from the forum.
Fi: Why are they leaving ekhi??
Kadafi: Brother zAk has found a woman…
Group: *raises eyebrow*
Room goes silent
Kadafi: On a more serious note, Far7an will be busy with his work and family, and brother zAk has his own reasons.
All of the sudden, Farhan and zAk walk in to hand in their uniforms. They stand up, one on each side of Kadafi.
Kadafi: Brothers, would you like to say something?
Farhan: On behalf of bro zAk and myself, we would just like to thank everyone for making LI like a second home. You will all be missed.
Silence provokes the room as they both stand there in hesitation.
Alpha Dude: I, too, have an announcement to make…
Everyone turns to Alpha Dude’s attention.
Alpha Dude: I wanted to resign to live my dream as a -- *interrupted*
Chacha Jalebi: ello ello
:-[
Alpha Dude: *gasp* how did you get back here?!
Chacha Jalebi: manz got his ways
H4run is crawling out of the inner ventilation system mumbling to himself unknowing the conference room is directly behind him watching him struggle as he comes out.
H4run: I thought you said you were Oxford material, yet you still couldn’t identify whether that huge spider was poisonous or not. Chacha if we get caught—
Alpha Dude: You too!?
oh:
Harun: Oh my…:muddlehea Seems like I’m interrupting something important :-[
Chacha: Not really, no one was listening to what he was saying anyway.
Alpha Dude: What did you come here for??
H4run: Peer pressured imsad
Chacha: Don’t mind us

:-[
Alpha Dude: As I was saying…I’m retiring to become a—
Chacha: ..a dudette innit?
Kadafi: Ya Akhwah! A’udhu billah!
Chacha: manz is sorry :-[ :-[
Alpha Dude: :mmokay:
Chacha: So? What is it? :-[
Alpha Dude: *says with great pride* I want to become a talk show host.
Everyone awkwardly looks at Alpha Dude, Kadafi is speechless as how to move the conference along.
zAk: *bursts into laughter* ;D ;D
Alpha: What are you laughing about? :mmokay:
zAk: I just imagined something funny ;D
Alpha: Oh.
zAk:Yea, you were in it. ;D ;D
Alpha Dude: *continues* Well now that I think about it, I don’t
have to leave my position.
Madani: *whispers* good, but… why the sudden mind change? :S
Alpha Dude: *whispers back* There’s a vacancy now, meaning… a possibility for me to become an SM *starts dreaming*
Muezzin: Can we continue this along please? I have other things to do.
Minaz: Like what?
Muezzin: You know, I’m tired of you asking me what I’m going to do every 5 min.
Minaz: Half the time you don’t do it anyway!
Muezzin: Maybe I make some things up so you can stop asking.
Alpha: boys, boys...save it for the debut show
Kadafi: IN
OTHER good news, brother Muhammed will be promoted to Administrator to replace Far7an—
Madani: Never!! Far7an can never be replaced!
Fi: Ekhi, we have to let go…
Kadafi: Of course he won’t be replaced in our hearts ekhi.
Madani: He was like a mentor to me
Kadafi: As well as Muhammed being promoted, so will bro Fi_Sabilillah and Al Madani.
Madani: *stops crying* really?
Alpha Dude: what about me?
Kadafi hands Muhammed a pair of shades.
Muhammed: Mashallah! Ekhi, I’ve always wondered, what are the shades for??
Kadafi: *whispers*
Muhammed: Ooohh! That makes sense.
Madani: Well? :?
Muhammed: *puts shades on* You wouldn’t understand ekhi, You just wouldn’t understand… :shade:
Kadafi: I think that’s all of the surprises for today inshallah. You may all be dismissed.
H4run, Alpha, and Chacha are walking out of the conference room discussing the show.
H4run: Can we be on the show?
Alpha: No.
Chacha: aww why not?
Alpha: Because.
H4run: Because?
Alpha: Leave me alone.
Chacha: But, I thought you loved us
Alpha: *looks to see if any cameras are hidden around*
H4run: You’re so insensitive to our feelings!
Alpha: *places hand on h4arun’s shoulder* Its just I would like to roll solo for once…
Chacha: But manz can help
We can both give you ideas!
Alpha: Maybe in another project inshallah.
H4run: But we love you!
A nonMuslim stares at them awkwardly.
Alpha: Shh man! You wanna give me a bad rep amongst the nonMuslims too!?
H4run: imsad
Alpha: Alright, alright, you can help me…
H4run: yayness!
:statisfie
Alpha: My God :muddlehea
H4run: What? :-[
Alpha Dude: Don’t ever say that in public again :muddlehea
Chacha: :X
Alpha Dude: Oh no!
mg:
H4run: so the ‘:X’ face disturbs you too??
Alpha Dude: No :mmokay: but I forgot to give my farewells to the bros wishing them well imsad
Chacha: brap brap! Let’s go back then innit?
Alpha Dude: NO let ‘us’ not go back. You TWO stay here, I’ll go back. *returns to conference room*
Back in the Conference room:
Al-Zaara enters (late, as always)
Al-Zaara: *to kadafi* Sorry, I am late… I started early but…
Kadafi: *interrupts* It’s ok, nothing unusual.
Al-Mu’minah: Innit :X
Al-Zaara: *whispers to Al-Mu’minah* What’s the gathering for? *looks around*
Al- Mu’minah: Far7an and zAk are leaving! *sobs*
Al-Zaara: OMG! How can they?!
mg:
Woodrow: I know, they could have at least left one at a time, this is like a double shock *checks heartbeat*
Al-Zaara: and Heyyy! zAk still owes me a rep from the day he neg’d me…
Umm Abdullah: Can I have his reps? :X
Al-Zaara: Can I share the reps too? :X
Minaz: Reps means nothing :mmokay:
Mawaddah: *sigh* kids and reps :mmokay: here, I'm losing the feeling of LI already......*sobs*
Al-Mu’minah: Girls! Don’t cry here, join us in the sisters’ room :X
*the girls follow her out*
Al-Madani: We’ll miss the zAk attacks
Alpha Dude: *whispers* Alhemdulillah
zAk: ^o) I still got the LI-Staff Uniform
*puts on an evil laugh*
Alpha Dude: not fair! and here I already started dreaming of a peaceful LI imsad
Al-Madani: Peaceful? ^o)…How about boring? imsad
Alpha Dude: I could have definitely taken zAk's place. I know all the tricks of the trade :shade: *to zAk* Besides, what happened to your accent??
zAk: Accent? vat accent?
Alpha: oh: see!! I knew it was fake :mmokay:
