She said, “OF COURSE, IT SOUNDED STRANGE WHEN HE INITIALLY CAME UP WITH THAT IDEA, I ASKED HIM IF HE WAS OKAY. I DID NOT EVEN THINK IT WOULD BE POSSIBLE BECAUSE I SAW HIM LIKE MY BROTHER, AND WE WERE VERY CLOSE. INITIALLY, I TOLD HIM IT WAS NOT POSSIBLE FOR US TO BECOME LOVERS BUT WITH TIME, I SAW SOME QUALITIES IN HIM WHICH I ADMIRED.”

Mide further revealed that she looked out for some qualities that she got in Afeez and that was important to her than how he looked or rich he was.
