Something You Stole - Part 18

Previously..

I didnt say anything, I just looked down at the card and ran my fingers along the letters he wrote on the card, with a smile on my face, and a feeling of warmth in my heart.

"Fajoora we have to return the favor!" Lulu suggested

"Ugh, like what? Bake him a cake? Invite him over? Send him flowers too?" i said sarcastically, i wasnt going to move on this fast, plus, who knows what kind of a person Fahad is.. i cant do this all over again

"Fine kaifich"

"Sa2alt il nurse mita a6la3.. she said in a few days, how long is that supposed to be?"

"Madry, maybe 3 or 4? i think it depends on how fast you heal" she said as she munched on an apple "how are u feeling now?"

"Lulu '6ahri it hurts oo i get really dizzy from time to time"

"Salamat 7abeeebtiii intay!"

"Allah ysalmich"

--

Fahad went back to his dad's room, he was so exhausted and terribly overwhelmed by everything.. it was a long day for him. He entered and found Haya sleeping uncomfortably on the couch.

"Hayoon" he nudged her slowly, "Hayooooon"

"Hmm?" she opened her squinty eyes "oh, im still here, hehe" 

"Goomay agi6ch ilbait, yalla?"

Haya got up slowly and gathered her things, then headed out the room with Fahad. He noticed her bb's LED light blinking non-stop and heard a few vibrations from her phone every once in a while.

"Hayo your phone.."

"ee 3ady 5ali.. its just pointless broadcasts im sure"

They got into Fahad's Touareq and Haya plugged in her iPod, they listened as Akon's music shook the speakers around them. Haya sensed some awkwardness in Fahad, he was never this quiet around her. She lowered the volume-

"Fahood are u ok?"

"Ee 3adi laish?"

"Ur quiet.. c'mon tell me sh9ayiiiir!"

"Mako shay.. bs i got alot on my mind"

"ouff me too! Ga3da a7ati malyoun sha'3la ib rass wa7id!" she joked, and Fahad drew a miniature smile

"Hayoona laish mo9irra 3ala wa'6eefat il sharika ma3 oboy?"

"Lena 6ool 3omra 7asbala iny magdar awa9il 7ag mostawa fa inshalla 3an 6aree8at hal wa'6eefa ra7 athbit nafsi lah o l'ahal my "ex-fiance", then i can go on with my life merta7a"

Fhad's inner organs were filled with nerves that were tightened sternly with guilt and couldn't bare seeing his one and only Hayoon being rejected again. Haya used to be inlove, and when i say inlove i mean IN-LOVE!  '6ary, loved her even more. He accomplished the most unbelievable things for Her, whenever she was sick he'd wait outside her house in his tinted Escalade listening to the radio while talking to her and dedicated the sweetest love songs to her until she'd fall asleep. Hayoon's phone would be stuck between her ear and pillow as she breathed softly and dreamt of her loved one, and '6ary would be listening to her calming breath as it dizzied him. Before she graduated from highschool he'd take her to coffee shops and tutor her whenever she had a test or a quiz. Sometimes on weekends they'd just go around k-town to talk about things and laugh in his car. They had the relationship of a "married" couple as they'd put it. And no one mattered to them since they were planning their whole future together.

"Fahad lets pass by Johnny Rockets, im hungry" 

"Inshalla" he instantly u-turned and headed to salmiya where they'd have dinner and go back home.

Mariam Shaikha and Rahaf got into Rahaf's tinted gold X5 and cruised around the gulf road. Shaikha suggested 3a9eer tha7ya and the girls agreed. Mariam needed to get over the embarrassment she caused for herself as well as Ya3goub's.. She couldnt believe what she just did, la w in PUBLIC! She felt so stupid and ignorant. How could she allow Ya3goob to be exposed to such a shameful position? 

La2 la2 mo ma38oola... ana 7mara? bgara? 95ala? plz God make him forget what i just said! and what i diiid! please make it all just disappear from the history of actuality! uuuughhhh!!! stupiiid stuupid stuupid!!!

As Mariam scolded herself in her inner thoughts, Rahaf and Shaikha were eyeing the hotties that drove at the same speed and kept up with them- they loved the attetion they got from shababna if you know what i mean, they seemed so easy to grab and drag behind the girls. 9ij ina il banat kanaw rabi3, but they spared the drama and didnt choose to talk about the incident that happened a few hours ago.

Let me fill you in..

Shaikha's face literally looked like she had 3 O's on her face, she was shocked in disgust when she saw Ya3goob's wife feeding him and blowing him kisses every once in a while, too bad Mariam had to see the scene.. She got up im3a9ba and walked over to his table..

"Ya3goob..!?"

When he saw her catastrophic but appealing eyes staring right at him, it was like someone slapped him hard across his face.

"h-hala.. hala i5ty.." he acted as if they had never met before

"i5tiiiiik?! wallaaah?" 

"hey hey mino intay?" his wife intruded

"ma7ad! ihya ma7ad.. low sma7tay i5ty.. 5aleena b7alna" he started getting nervous and it elucidated instantly when he saw that she wasnt going to let the situation slip this easily.. Ya3goob knew how much Mariam loved him, he also knew that she would sell her whole life for just another moment in his arms.

"ana ma7aaad??!"

"MARIAM! tukfain..."

Sorry 6awalt 3alaikom my loves, i adore you guys for being so patient with me, still love me? :(

Something You Stole - Part 17

Previously..

-- 

she was about to head out but stopped before opening the door..

"Fajer bagoolich shay.."

--

i looked at her worried face, and shot her a whats going on look.

"i called 3aboud.."

"annnd..?" Fajer looked up and her brows formed an upside down v, like she was about cry

"i-i think ba7rainy Sara is here.. w i think shes.."

"you think she's what...??"

"i think shes out with him now.." 

7asait nafsi 9gheera, o 7asait iny ghabiya ib shakil mo 6abee3i. 

"call the nurse." 

"laish shfeech?"

"i wanna know when im getting out of here!"

"as2alha lich ana, and i'll get you ur coffee.." she said in a sad tone of voice.

i nodded and tucked myself in the hospital bed, holding my tears back. I wasnt going to allow myself to cry over him again. This pain happened too many times and im starting to get used to it. I felt worthless and shallow, and as i began to realise; he's actually playing me, i dozed off to sleep..

--

Lets get out of the hospital and the whole "3abdalla game" shway, and take a closer look at what Shaikha's doing with her friends. 

The girls headed to Chocolate Bar il bid3 and found a good table outside. They made their orders and treated themselves with the latest gossip to fill out their time. Rahaf was the oldest (20) so her word seemed to overlap Shaikha's (19) and Maryam's (18) most of the time. Maryam was younger than the girls, but her inner thoughts and mature mind made her seem like the eldest. 

"Shayookh mino ily kan wiya Fahad ib Johnny?" she smirked 

"His friend 9ali7 why?"

"Bas as2al"

"Laykooooooon??;p" 

"Shasawi he's so cuuuuute! oo sha3ra!" she laughed

"hahaha! Rahaf yoozay!" Maryam said "tawich hadda whats-his-face.. take a break!" 

"Yam3awda hathi waaaaain ta5ithlich a break! haha, she cant stand being single for more than 5 days, which is just enough time for her to find someone else!" 

Rahaf burst into laughter, lo ay bint 3adiya chan z3alat 3al kalam, bs Rahfo here saw it as flattery that complimented her sharp features and perfectly gym-toned body.

A while later, Maryam gasped in shock and hid her face with her oversized LV bag, the girls were confused and asked her what was wrong, tears began to fill Maryam's kohl drawn eyes and she asked Shaikha to switch seats so she wouldnt be facing them. Ya3goob, her 21 year old ex, entered with his newly-wed by his side and found a table right behind Maryam and her friends. The waitress asked them what they'd like to have. "Chocolate Fondu" she whispered to herself.

"Chocolate Fondu please" 

"7ayati shino hatha ily fee marshmallows il abyath?" his wife squealed

"Il cookies?"

"Laa 5ala9 abi molten chocolate cake" 

His voice reminded her of so much, and like any girl, she remembered the way he used to shower her with love and attention, but mainly the 3 words she heard from him every night before she went to sleep. 5 years of "Maryam and Ya3goob" were just an illusion that they both lived through, but it was all over now, Ya3goob is a married man, and Maryam has to realize this soon enough before she messes things up for others, and by others i mean.. well, lets just keep it as a surprise for the sake of the story ;)

Back at Dar Al-Salaam:

Fahad went down to the entrance of the hospital to get something, and Lulu was ordering Fajer's coffee. It was around 6:45pm  now, and Fahad's dad was still the way he was when he was first admitted to the hospital, Fajer was asleep and heartbroken, and 3abdalla was still out with the Slut.

A nurse entered Fajer's room to check the IV and her fracture's progress..

Knock Knock

She opened the door for a man who handed a bouquet of flowers to her.

"Please give these to Fajer"

"Oqay sir"

"Thank you"

The nurse placed them on the table beside Fajer, but as she made some adjustments Fajer woke up and smiled at her.

"How are you peeling now meees Pajer?"

"Im in a little pain but im okay, thanks"

"Oqay good, and dis is por you" she pointed at the bouquet 

"wha- who's this from?"

"A man"

"umm, okay, thank you- oh by the way do you know when i'll be getting out?"

"maybe a few days"

As she headed out, Lulu came in with my coffee and sat on my bed. I reached for the flowers and smelled them as Lulu eyed them with curiosity and confusion.

"who are they from?" 

"I have NO idea ;s" 

Lulu touched the only purple flower and pulled a card out, "Salamat Fajer, hope to see you back on your feet in no-time! -F " 

I was shocked, Lulu was shocked too bas il ibtisama kanat shagga wayha! 

"Oh, my, GOD!"

"Who's F supposed to be?" i acted clueless.

"FAJER?? Seriously!??" 

I nodded

"it's FAHAAAD! I'm sure! I'm 100 percent sure!" 

I didnt say anything, I just looked down at the card and ran my fingers along the letters he wrote on the card, with a smile on my face, and a feeling of warmth in my heart.
