I'd lie..

I'd lie if I say I didn't miss you..
I'd lie if I say I still do..

I'd lie if I say I don't care..
I'd lie if I say I always did..

I'd lie if I say I believed you..
I'd lie if I say I never did..

I'd lie if I say im not confused..
I'd lie if I say I know why..

I'd lie if I say I love you..
I'd lie if I say I never once did..

From today on, its goodbye..
Im not who i was..
You're not who you were..

You wont understand..
You think you do..
But you dont..

Youu guys should watch Harpers Island. Its just 13 episodes, bas 7ADAA 3AJEEB! ya3ny its the type ily you cant stop watching it until you finish it. w 7adaa you wont expect the ending.

A horror thriller/mystery TV Show, Harper’s Island centers on a series of riddling murders. A group of friends and some relatives attend Henry Dunn and Trish Wellington’s wedding celebration on the picturesque and secluded Harper’s Island off the coast of Seattle. The mystic location is renowned for some unelucidated crimes which took place seven years ago. The suspense reaches the maximum level when the guests are killed one by one.

A murderer transforms the celebration into a struggle for survival giving the “until death do us part” quote… a new meaning. Everyone is a suspect and no one is safe. Until the end of the thirteen episodes, only a few will survive… or not? Has the killer returned or is another murderer playing the devil and all with them?

To Hold & To Have [17]

It was 3abdulla, he was sitting alone on the shore just staring off into space.  I decided to go and sit beside him, maybe he would forgive me for what happened. I thought about it alot today, if i were in his postion and my cousins would have done such a thing to my friend i would have killed them and i would've been extremely embaressed.

When i sat beside him, he didnt seem to notice me. He just sat there lost in his thoughts, i was quiet or a few seconds thinking whether or not to say something now or wait for him to notice me sitting there beside him.

Me: Hey, its kinda late..

He suddenly snapped back to reality and was surprised to see me sitting beside him.

3abdulla: magidart anam, and why arent you sleeping?

Me: well, 7itan ana magidart anam.

He ignored me and continued looking at the waves crashing on the shore. i'v always loved the sound of it, its really relaxing and the smell of the sea too. I wanted to apologize to him for what happened today, but i didnt really have the words. but i gave it a try anyways..

Me: 3abdula..i..i..im..

3abdula: sorry?

Me: umm, yes..wallah i really am

3abdula: you embaressed me, mu bas jidaam 7mayen. jidaam kil rab3ee ily shafouw ish9aar

Me: We didnt mean anything, we just did it as a joke..ma daraina ina he was going to be that mad

3abdula: 3a6aito bottle of sea water, w you dont think hes going to get mad?

Me: We didnt think of it in that way, we didnt think ina what we did will come back and bite us in the ass..

3abdula: Your pathetic..

pathetic? i really have nothing else to say, i apologised. what else? im all alone, no 3awaash to tell me what to say or have 3awaash to save me from such a situation. I looked at him, and as usual his face was stoic and emotionless.

Me: Im trying to apologise here and your telling me im pathetic? i really dont now what to tell you right now.

3abdula: Then dont say anything. I dont need your apology and sympathy and i really dont need you to be all dr.phil on me. 

i felt the tears fill my eyes, and i was trying so hard not to cry, the last thing i need is me crying infornt of him.

Me: b..b..bas i really am sorry

3abdula: DAMNIT REEMA I SAID I DONT NEED YOUR APOLOGY!

Me: *sniff sniff* d..d..dont shout..

3abdula: latabcheen, 7mayen made you cry today and if you do cry now  then that doesnt make me any better than him. 

Me: Ooh s..s..so now your being kind?

Ugh! i hate it when i become all stuttery because im crying.

3abdulla: Look, im sorry for shouting. bas intaw mat3arfoun 7mayen, lo ana mu yaay chan 3ady 6agkum jidam il nas w ma abeekum itkounoun ib hal maw8if marathanya le2ana mu kil mara bakoun hnee 3ashan asa3idkum..now yalla smile w latabcheen

He placed his hand on my cheeck and gently wiped my tears with his thumb. Now i felt at ease, the hard part is finally over.

Im tired of always starting the conversation, so maybe now its his turn..

Just thought you should know..

That my story isnt in anyways true, its all made-up. im making it up as i go, ya3ny i dont even know whats going to happen in part 17. Well no, im lieng i do know whats going to happen in part 17, but i dont now whats going to happen in part 18,19..etc.

On other notice, i saw a girl with the swastika sign on her car. i was surprised, cuz to many people its offensive or maybe offensive is an understatement its something disgusting, and its a sign of racism. bas i doubt she knows that. shes either;
1) An undercover nazi
2) Thinks its cool
3) Doesnt know what it means

I go with 3, because no-one in thier right mind will put a swastika on their car to show the world that he/she is a racist.

Peace, love and smiling pandas.

To Hold & To Have [16]

This cant get any worse, i thought to myself.  In the middle of all the chaos, i was praying to god that 3abdulla wont get into a fight with this guy. All i wanted him to do was get us out of this situation.

3abdulla pushed the guy away from 3awash.  I held her hand and pulled her to my side, i can see it in her eyes that she was still infuriated of what just happened. 

3abdula: GILTLIIK WA5ER 3ANHAA

Guy: INTA YAAY HNEE W MATADREE SHISALFAA! LIBNAYA BA8AAT TITHBA7NY!

3abdula: enzain, 5an ni6la3 bara w goulee ish9aar bil'6ab6, mu 7ilwa 9ar5na chithy jidaam el awadim

Due to 3abdulla's calm and persuasive voice, the guy calmed down and his once tense body relaxed. As happy as i was that this was over, i now realized that the problem isnt completely over. I didnt really now how 3abdulla is going to react to what we did. 

The people started going, each one with a different expression. Some shocked and some with a "thank god im not in there place" expression. Me and 3awaash were still in shock, we looked at each other quietly, and slowly a smile started to form on 3awaash's face. Uff 7ada mu wagta ti'67aak hathy.

Me: Shfeech? you realize what just happened 9a7?

3awaash: Yea, and were dead

Me: And thats funny?

3awaash: mm, yea

Me: geez 3awaash, are you bipolar wela shay? tawich im3a9baa

3awaash: enzain yalla 5anriid el shalaiih your a mess. w ma siwaat 3alaina gilna nabee kakaaw

Me: eeh wallah..

As soon as we were about to go out, 3abdula came in, i tried to read his expression but he was stoic. He hissed for us to follow him back to the chalet, and we did as we were told. For a few minutes we walked in silience. But how can there be silience if 3awaash is around?

3awaash: So, shgaliik?

I pocked 3awaash with my elbow indicating for her to shut-up.

3awaash: aay reema! 9ij aby a3arif ishgalaa!

I shot her an "are you serious?" look, but  i didnt say a word and continued walking. Whatever she indentded to do, i dont want anything to do with it.

3abdulla: galy ina 3a6aito bottle fy maay ba7aar

3awaash: enzain, and why are you mad?

3abdula: LE2ANKUM KALAMTO!

i jumped to his sudden change of tone, but still decided not to interfere, and just hoped 3awaash will do the same thing. But who am i kidding?

3awaash: excuse me, lat9ari5..

Apparently she saw it as a joke, and from his face i saw that he is about to explode from anger.

Me:  3awaash bas siktaay.

He shot me a cold look and started walking faster. I did the same in order to keep up with him. When we got to the chalet 3awaash ran inside when she realized the rest of my cousins just arrived. I tramped inside and plastered a huge smile on my face.

Me: Hiii, wa a5eeran yaitaaw?

As my cousin blabbered on, i looked back and saw 3abdulla go and greet the rest of my guy cousins.

The rest of the day went smoothly, we played cards, walked on the beach and caught up on some gossip.  At about 2am, we all decided to go to sleep. we said our goodbyes and planned on meeting up at our chalet for breakfast.

I took a shower, brushed my teeth, wore my pjs and jumped into bed. i wasnt really sleepy, so i got my book out of my bag and started reading. After reading for a few minutes, i went to check if 3awaash was asleep, and she was. 

Quietly, i tip-toed outside and sat on the porch looking and the sea and daydreaming. A dark figure sitting on the beach caught my eye,  i squinted my eye a bit then recognized who is was..

To Hold & To Have [15-B]

3abdula: e7mm

I wiped the tears from my cheecks and looked behind me. There he was hotter than ever sitting on the couch with a confused look on his face. I think the huge smile still plastered on my face scared him, so he smiled back.

Me: emm..

I was speechless, i had nothing to say. He just saw us run into the room, look out the window and roll on the floor laughing. I shot 3awaash a desperate look, but she just shrugged. Ugh! She always has something to say, why not now?

Me: emm..i-i-i didnt think you were going to come..

3abdula: I was'nt going to, but i changed my mind at the last second

I didnt reply, i had nothing to say. we just sat there looking at each other. The couple of times i saw hiim, he was the one doing the talking. well, not really the talking, just the greetings. We sat there looking at each other, desperatley thinking of something to happen to get me out of this akward situation.

3awaash: REEMA 5ANII6LAA3 NITMASHAA BARAA!

The sudden sound of 3awashs loud voice made me jump just the slightest bit. As i got up i saw the smile slowly fade from 3abdullas face. phew, thank god thats over.

Me: Okaay, see you later 3abdulla..

6ala3naa min the chalet and we started walking on the beach.

Me: THANKYOUU!! i owe you my lifeee!!


3awash: well, i had to do something. i was getting pretty bored just watching you look at each other.


Me: Was it thaat bad?


3awaash: 7eta uhwa ma tikalaam, so your not the only one whos suppoed be be embarresed

Yea, she does have a point. i seriously dont now what i'd do without 3awaash. We walked on the beach for a few minutes and when we got bored we decided to walk to sultan center since it wasn't that far away. As we were walking we were laughing and giggling about old memories and stuff.

3awash: hahaa! umbaay remember jabaal el mouut?

Me: OH MY GOD! eeeehhh! sha5bary! it wasnt even a jabaal 3ashan insamee jabaal el mout.

3awaash: Bas it seemed huge laman kina yahaal. kina nig3aad fouga w we spy 3ala 3yaal 5alty

Me: Eeehh! min kithiir ma we loved it kanaaw iyeeboulina el ghada we7na ga3deen fouga

And thats how it went for the rest of our walk to sultan center. We made our way through the bunch of boys crowded around a buggy and entered. A cool breeze from the air conditioning welcomed us as delieghtfully made our way to the chocolate aisle.

3awash: Allaaahhh! wedy ashtiry all of these chocolates

Me: Yal bal3aa ana mishtahya fizzy drinks, barou7 ashouf shba5ithly..

I headed towards the large coolers while scanning what i'll decide on taking. I picked up a baribican bottle and diet coke.

As i was walking back to 3awaash i was looking at my reflection in the window. When suddenly i collided into a someone, my barbican bottle came crashing down and smashed into the ground. Without looking at the person i apologized and started picking up the pieces of shattered glass.

Guy: ENTAAY!

I looked up and to my surprise it was the guy we gave sea water too. I froze in my spot, not knowing whether to run or ignore him.

Guy: TADREEN INIICCHHH BA8AIITAAY TITHBI7EENYY??!!...

Thats all i heard from his ear peircing shouts and then i just blanked out. i watched in horror as his face turned red, his eyes popped out and particles of silivia started spraying at me as he was furiously shouting. With the corner of my eyes i saw a crowd starting to form around us.

Paraylzed from fear, tears started rolling down my eyes. I thought he might be a little sympathetic and just shut-up, but noo he just continued shouting from the top of his lungs. 3awaash pushed through the crowed and stood beside me. Just as she was going to say something, he grabbed her from her arm and stared shouting at her. There faces were just inches apart. She tried to push away but his grip was too tight.

Unlike me, 3awaash is the strong one, so instead of crying she became infuriated.

3awash: HIDNY!!

He ignored her and continued shouting. i cant believe no-one in the crowed was doing something. Since most of them were guys, i figured they were his friends. 7itan lo, they still should've done something.

As i stood there, broken glass under me and my eyes swelled with tears, he continued shouting on and on. Then, out of nowhere i heard a familiar voice.

3abdula: 7MAYEN HID LIBNAYA!!

3abdula pushed through the crowed with his hands clentched into a fist.

Tried but failed.

Okay so, i tried downloading a template for my blog but miserably failed. I admit, im not a wizz in computers and stuff bas, do i need to be one in order for me to dowload a template?

Awaal shay, when i thought i succesfully downloaded it, i was like YAY! bas bi3dain when i recognized it was uploaded into winzip i knew my attempt to finally get a proffesional and simple template has failed.

It said something about extracting xml or something like that. I sat there think and when i thought i had the perfect idea, my renewed sense of hope kicked in. What was my perfect idea you may ask? google ofcouse. i searched "how to extract an xml" and to my dissapointment i found myself reading a whole lot of jumbo mumbo about stuff i have no clue about. I might have been reading Swaheely and just didnt now it.

Once again, i sat there thinking. Yet another bulb flashed above my head. Yup, you've guessed it, i got a new idea. I return to the original template website in search of help or comments like "why doesnt this template work?" because being the person that i am, i no longer think its my stupidity, but a mistake of theres. But noooo, for everyone else that has downloaded it, its completely fine . instead of comments like "why doesnt this template work" theres comments like "It worked perfectly".

while i was reading the comments i was secretly hoping that all their computers would burn down. So finally, all the optimisim is gone. i close all the windows and go to the kitchen to prepare myself a rewarding bowl of cheese flavored noodles for all the hard work i've done.

Is it that obvious that im bored and that i have nothing to talk about? i hope not.

Ooh and by the way, a new post no later than friday i promise.

Peace, love and whipped cream.

To Hold & To Have [15-A]

I waited outside the chalet as 3awaash went inside to get whatever she was getting. From where i was standing, i could see the guy but i doubted he can see us. Since it was "revenge" it wasnt really good for us if he knew where our chalet was.

Within 2 minutes, 3awash came out with a bottle of water in one hand and a bunch of tissues in the other. She then went over to the sea, emptied the water into it.

Me: Bta36eena an empty bottle?

3awaash: No, im not that lame

Me: Ooh ashwaa hehe

She stuck her hand into the sea and from what it looked like, she was refilling the bottle with sea water.

Me: hhheeeehhhhhhh!!!! umbaay 3awaash!

3awaash: Hehehe, shrayech!?

Me: Risky, bas wouldnt he recognize? you now, since sea water isnt completey clear and stuff.

3awash: What do you think the tissue is for?

She wrapped the tissue around the bottle, so that the unclear water didnt show.

3awaash: Shoufay reema, awaal ma a36ee the bottle we make a run for it okay?

Me: hahaa! awal shay, hes on a buggy, he can easily catch up with us and to make matters worse you now me very well, im not that fast!

3awaash: 3ala ma yistaw3iib what he drank and 3ala ma he chokes and throws up and stuff. dont worry, we'll have plenty of time.

Me: Oh my god, wont he die or something? maskeen ma siwaat 3alaii galina yabee maay

3awaash: He wont drink the whole bottle, he'll probably just take a few gulps. ive always swallowed sea water by mistake nothing happens..

Me: hehe okaay

As we walked back to him, i couldnt help myself but smile. My mom has always told us about crazy thiings shes done with her sisters, and said how glad she is that she did these insane things because now she can look back at them and laugh. So, since me and 3awaash dont have any memorise of us doing crazy things, this could be our first.

When we got to him, we stood a good 2 meters away from him. Not too close and not too far. 3awaash threw him the bottle and before i knew it she started running. i ran behind her trying with all my might to catch up with her. i was too scared to look back and too tierd to run any faster. Just as my feet were going to give up, we got to our chalet. We rushed in slamming the door behind us and running directly to the window.

Panting, we looked outside the window. There wasn't any sign of him, just the sound of his loud motor buzzing and the waves crashing on the shore. Suddenly, his yellow buggy wizzed past our chalet. Quickly ducking down, me and 3awaash burst into laughter. We were laughing so hard that tears were running down our faces.

Then the low soothing voice caught us off gaurd..

Sober

I woke up to the loud shouts of yousef, my husband. As soon as i realised who he was shouting for, i jumped out of bed and rushed into the bathroom and locked myself inside. Its a harrowing experience everytime this happens. Why can't we be the perfect couple i imagined our selfs to be?

Yousef: ZAINOO! WALLAAH W BILLAAAH LO MA FACHITAY IL BAB WAALAAH LATSHOUFEEN SHAAY MASHIFTEE!!

i curled up in the corner and started to sob. That happened nearly everyday, but everyday i thought it was the last time, but to my surprised it wasn't.

I had nowhere to go. i knew if i unlocked the door i'd be greeted by one of his slaps or punches. Its moments like these that i wonder why i havent left him by now, why i havent told my parents when it first started. Why i havent packed my bags and just disappear. But, the fact is i cant leave him. After hes snapped out of his drunken mode, he'd return to yousef i'd loved and adored.

A bottle crashed on the ground then he started banging on the door.


Yousef: Shiftaay sh5alaiiteeni asawee yal chalba? il7een lazem ashtiry bo6il vodka yedeed.

He started banging on the door harder now, and at that point i was shaking, theres no running way from him.

Suddenly everything went quiet. Its either hes blacked out or just doing one of his tricks to get me to open the door. i sat there for a few minutes until i was sure that he wasn't there then i opened the door. i saw him lying on the shattered glass with his eyes shut.


From experience, i knew the worse part ended. That after he'd gain consciousness hed return to the normal yousif. i sat him up and realized that his tshirt was covered in blood.

Yousef: mm...zz-zzaai-na

Me: Im here, yousif yourbleeding stay here 3alama i go get a wet towel.

i rushed into the bathroom, grabbed a towel and soaked it with water. When i got to him, i helped him up and manuvered him to the bed. I took his tshirt of and layed him down prone on the bed. Slowly, i started to wipe the blood from his back. Still in shock of what happened, i startedto cry.

Yousef: Zayouna shfeech?

Me: Yousef i can't take this anymore. i dont want to be the battered wife that everyone talks about. im..im..im leaving.

Even though i've said this many times before, he didnt believed me. He knew i loved him to much and that i cant be without him. But this time, maybe its the way i said, he knew it was true, he knew that i was finally leaving.

Yousef: Zaina you cant leave, what will i do without you? you now that i dont mean to do what i do. I'd never hurt you.

Me: Hurt me? guess what yousef? you already did.

Yousef: i know i've said that i dont need you and that i've been so nasty to you. Ive punched you and i've kicked you, but you now i didnt mean to, love you. zaina please dont leave me. i have nobody else

Me: You've got your vodka bottle.

To Hold & To Have [14]

3 months later..

Finally, its spring. Its always been the same routine during the spring break. My whole family would g to the chalet. When i say "whole family" i dont just mean my mom, dad, sister and i. Its literally my whoolee family, like grandparents, aunts and uncles.

Its been about 3 months after the whole controversy with Sara and 3abdula. And since then, i've seen 3abdula a couple of times in family gatherings. He'd come up and ask me how i was doing and stuff but not really anything else. As for Sara, we just ignored each other.

As soon as we got to our chalet, me and 3awash dumped our bags in our rooms and rushed out to the beach to soak up the sun. Since my parents were the "over-protective" type, we werent aloud on buggies or jetskies. In other words, we werent aloud to do anything fun. So, through-out the years we managed to make our own fun. It started out as catchers and hide-and-go-seek when we were about 6, then evloved to tanning and walking on the beach when we became teenagers.

I put my flipflops beside the front door and started walking barefoot with 3awash by my side. As we walked on the beach, the jetskies splashed water on us. We'd try to avoid them but they always managed to soak us. When we finally gave up with our clothes dripping wet, we sat on the sand to rest for a while. Although we still didnt now if 3abdula was going to come to the chalet or not, we still talked about how were going to react when we see him and whether or not we were going to talk to him.

As we sat there talking and giggling we heard a loud motor behind us. We didnt pay much attention to it because buggies always rushed behind us. We continued doin what we were doing, and still the sound did not go.

3awash: Waay! shhal buggy il muz3iij?

Me: Ee wallaah, bas il'6aher imghariz wela shay 9arla sa3a warana

3awash: Yea probably, anyways 5al akamil..

i didnt hear the rest of what 3awash had to say due to the increasing sound of the buggy.

Me: Uuuf baas!

i looked back, and there it was. A huge yellow buggy inches away from me, and on it sat a guy with a huge smile showing his ugly croooked ugly teeth.

Guy: Lo sama7taaw..7ady 3a6shaan 3indukum maay?

It was obvious that he was just messing aroun. Me and 3awash both knew it. But i didnt expect 3awash's answer.

3awash: yeaa, la7'6a shwaay

Me: 3awaash min9ii...

She pocked indicating to me that i should shut up. When she got up, she pulled my arm with her. As soon as we were far enough from him i asked 3awash what the hell she was doing.

3awash: Wait and see, ive got an idea..

Me: Mind telling me what it is?

3awash: Dont you want to get back at guys for all the heartaches theyve caused us?

Me: And your going to get back at them by getting a bottle of water? Wow! genius..

3awash: Laa laa! ni6raay

3awash was always the one with te crazy ideas. I wonder what she has in store now.

And yes, i also do now that the past post or two of "To Hold And To Have" have been very short and boring. i do promise you that juicy stuff are going to be happening.

Ps. Why is our internet only working in my room? ugh our internet sucks. I better start using the neighbours.

To Hold & To Have [13]

I woke up to the blinding rays of the sun. My head was throbbing with unbareable pain. It felt like my eyelids were sown shut. In a failed attempt to opening them, i pulled the covers over my head and lay under the pillow. I let out a muffeled groan indicating to who ever opened the curtains in the first place should close them back.

Mom: Haw lail7een naymaa? el sa3aa thintaiin w nu9, ba3ad shwaay bi7i6oun el ghada. yala mama goumay.

Me: Yumaa 5aleeny anaam 7ady 3ayzanaa w rasy ibyinfijiir, bas nu9 sa3aa, please.

I felt the light dimming and when it was completely dark, the door closed. Just as i was about to fall asleep, my phone beeped. Uncounsiously,i grabbed my phone. It was a message from a unknown number.

1 message recieved.


+96567..


Reem, if yesterday wasnt clear enough for you, 3abdula is mine and dont even try. We've been together for 2 years now w mabee wa7da mithliich tiyiiy w it5arib our relationship. Everything was fine until you came along. For your benefit just back off, okay?


14:37pm


Seriously? It wasnt like i was flirting with him yesterday or anything. Then i noticed that i have 3 messages from 3abdula. Without reading them, i deleted the messages, i dont want to now what he has to say. As fast as this started, i want it to end. Since i didnt now how to reply to Sara, i figured 3awaash should reply, Shes a pro at these things.

I got out of bed, stretched a little then went to the bathroom for a hot shower. While i was the shower, i heard my mobile ring a couple of times. Since i wasnt close with any of my friends, it was just an "at school" thing, i doubted it was them. I've been backstabbed by a few of my friends a couple of times so the girls i hung out with were just friends, i didnt tell them anything personal neither did i go out with them. So i figured it was either Sara or 3abdula.

I dont now how long i took in the shower, but i now i did take a long time, because when i got out my parents were already taking their afternoon nap. After i changed, i called 3awaash for some serious help.

Me: 3AWSHOOO! ta3alaay daryyy pleaase!

3awash: Shinu ashti'3iil 3indiich? ta3alaay el 9alaa..

Me: iits abouutt 3abeeer!

3abeer is our girls name for 3abdula, for example if we wanted to talk about him infront of some-one who didnt now about him, we used "3abeer" instead of "3abdula".

As soon as i said this i heard her running to my room.

3awash: ha sh9aar ba3aad?

Me: Haach, hatha min sara..igraay

i watched as her eyes scanned the screen of my mobile. She looked up at me with wide twinkiling eyes.

3awash: and what did you reply?

Me: Thats the thing, i didnt..i need you to reply to her as me.

3awash: Afaaa 3alaiiiiich!

She grabbed my mobile and typed away. She was typing so fast with a huge smile on her face showing of her newely whitened teeth. Ooh did i mention that 3aisha removed her braces? well she did!

3awaash: Haach igraay gabel la i send w goulelee etha zain wela laa2

+96567..

Did i mention that me and 3abdula are cousins? well, yea we are. And no, im not even trying to get him. Yes he is yours, Bas gabel la tiyeen w itkalmeeny gouleela uhwa to stop texting me..mayb you should check his fone every once in a while and see our messages and maybe then you'll see that he asked me to go out with him not the other way around. Disregarding kil hatha..once again HE'S MY COUSIN so i have all the right to talk to him.

As soon as i pressed send, i regretted it. Maybe it wasnt a good idea throwing all the blame on 3abdula. Maybe it was better if i just ignored her. That way she'll have nothing agaisnt me. Ooh well, i had to stand up for myself didnt I?

I went to the call log to see who called me while i was in the shower..and to my amazment not it was 3abdula. To tell you the truth, he has nothing to explain. He cant say he's not with Sara because he would have denied it infront of her.

And then..

incoming call +96599...

Me: He's calling again, asheela?

3awash: eeh, tell hiim to stop texting you and calling you. and tell him about Sara.

Me: Bas my promise?

3awash: 3uguub ma itgouleela to stop it, bi3daiin your promise starts..le2ana now that he nows matabeen itkalmeena lazem you keep your word fahamtaay?

Me: Okaay..here goes nothing..Aloo?

3abdula: Laish matrideen wala u answer my calls min ams??

Me: Im not obligated to. w bi3dain your girlfriend it3a9ib w she texts me again..malee 5ilg drama..

3abdula: SHE TEXTED YOUU? 7ILFAAY?

Me: Laish a7liif? 3abalik achathib?

3abdula: Laa2, bas ams she asked me for my fone galaat tabee itshouf the pictures..i didnt think ina she'll take your number! 7maraa hathee?? Ana awareeha.

Me: Well, shes your girlfriend not mine. And no, dont do anything to her. i think its better itha you dont text me anymore i dont have time for drama. Ive known you bas for a few days and already you've let me down twice.

3abdula: Ely iray7iich Reema. I didnt mean anything. i just figured ya3ny since you're my cousin mayb we should talk.

Me: Etha we talk, bas min yam3a lai yam3a. nothing more.

3abdula: As i said, ely iray7iich.

Me: Okay, bye

3abdula: Byee

As i said, as fast as it started, it ended.

To Hold & To Have [12]

I was hesitant about whether or not i should call my mom right now or wait till i get home. She must be worried, so i called her in while i was in the car

Calling mummy..

After two beeps she picked up

Mom: Aloo?

Me: Aloo..Yuma dagaitaay?

Mom: eeh, haw wainiich lail7een ma radaitay..el sa3a 3ashir!

Me: Sorry bas kint weya rifeejaty walla ma7asaina bil wagt..mar bser3a

Mom: Wehh..yallah 3ayaal

Me: Byee

Mom: Byee

Pheeeww! I was 100% sure that i was in trouble.

On the way back home all i did was look out the window, and every second i'd look at my mobile wishing that i've recieved a message from 3abdula. Although i was infuriated and didnt want him in my life anymore i still wanted him to call me or text me. That way i'll no that he cares, or atleast realizes that im mad and upset. But to my disapointment i didnt get anything from him.

Did you ever hear the quote "its over before it even started" or "we were dead before the ship even sank". Thats how i felt, that was the first time i went out with 3abdula and already he's let me down. He didnt even have the audacity of texting me or even calling me a second time. So, i made a promise to my self that i will have nothing to do with him, and never have any form of communication with him. Daam hathy awalha, ishbiyiiy mina in the long run?

When i got home, 3aisha was sitting in her room watching tv. Awal ma shafatny she jumped of her bed with enthusiasim and asked me how it went, so i told her everything that had happened. How at first everything was going great until Sara came along and ruined everything and then how i excused myslef and sobbed in the car while Sara sat in my seat and chatted away.

3awash: Waaayyy! T7uur shtabee?

Me: Adry adry! itbuu6 il chabd, ilmushkela how am i guna act jidamha in school?

3awash: 5atwalee just act like nothing happened. w what about 3abdula? what did he do?

Me: walaa shay! he just looked at the ground, w lama 6ala3t dag 3alay once

3awash: Wai3 ithnainat'hum inarfizoun. Tara 3abdula ma iyeeb ela 3awar el ras fa a7sanlich latkalmeena 5air shar..

Me: Eeh! bas intaay lazem you help me, ya3ny fil3eeny ib juwaty lo giltlich im guna message him aw sha okay?

3awash: Hehee..i'll be glad to!

After a few hours of talking and ti7il6iming, we both went to sleep. And that night i had the weirdest dream..it was a hot summer day and for some reason Sara and 3abdula were at our house. We were all walking beside the pool when suddenly Sara pushed me into the pool and jumped in after me. At first i think she was doing it as a joke so i was laughing, but then i looked at her face and i saw the hate flickering in her eyes. She grabbed me from my hair and started to drag me down. I was screaming for 3abdula to do something, but he just sat there stoic.

I woke up gasping for air. A bead of sweat made its way through my hair and down my forehead. It 3:20am. i layed on my bed twisting and turning trying to go back to sleep. I fought the urge of seeing if i recieved any messages from 3abdula. Even though i said i wouldnt, i knew if i saw any messages from him theres no way i could stop my self from replying, only if 3awash was there to stop me. ___________________________________________________________________ walaa adry the post is too short..IM SOOO SOORRYYY a7ibkum(a)! bas im soo happyy!! When i went "jogging" today, sheft the extra hot dude ely iyaniin ely he makes my heart stop and race at the same time, ely lama marait jidam his house ree7ta el ityaniin kanaat fay7a everywhere. I think im going turn into this crazy obsessed stalker and camp in his garden since i know where his house is. Nyahahahaaa!
