Previously..
Fahad's dad is taken to the ICU and he's still wandering around the hospital waiting for updated news. Fajer is healing nicely and rapidly. While Mariam was at the salon doing her eyebrows, she gets a call from Ya3goob's phone, turns out its his wife telling Mariam to stay away from him- she refuses ofcourse, and they get into a heated argument.--
Haya threw herself in bed again, she couldnt get up for university today.. Outgoing call Fahoodi;*"Alo..""Hala Fahoodi shlounik?""Jismy mitkasir..intay shlonich?""Tierd! Matwa8a3 ra7 adawim ilyom, bayeelik il mustashfa okay?""Na6rich.."He didnt want her to worry at the moment. She was the really sensitive type, any sort of news could freak her out. Il 7ilo feeha inha 3ala niyaat-ha. It9adig ayshay o wayid trustworthy o 6ayooba. She arrived at the hospital at 12 noon with ice cream and vanilla milkshakes for her and Fahad since he mentioned craving it last night. Outgoing msg Fahoodi;*:Im here, heading up now
She walked to her father's room expecting Fahad to be waiting for her on the sofa by their father's bed watching tv. But she opened the door and found nothing but an empty bed. The room was cleared up and fixed, there was nothing. The worst thoughts came to mind, but before panicking she called Fahad
"Al-"
"WAIN OBOOY!??" she almost yelled"Hayoon, 5atho il 3inaya il murakaza.. intay 9ob il'3orfa?""Sh9aayir fahad?? lat5ari3ny!!""Mako ila il5air inshalla, kani yaylich"A few minutes later Fahad showed up. He greeted his sister with a warm hug and took the drinks and ice cream from her. He walked her to the waiting room of the ICU, they werent allowed to go in yet, and no one gave them a straight forward answer yet. Haya crossed her legs then looked at her foot that she moved up and down anxiously. She curled her short brown hair with her fingers, and played with the necklace that her lover put on her neck 2 years ago..--Mariam finished and got into her car. She couldnt stop thinking about Ya3qoub's wife, what did he see in her? Lazim ashoofa..She thought to herself.. and decided that after hanging with the girls, she was going to act upon her "master plan"She went back home and found Rahaf o Shaikha barra waiting for her.. "Hi ya 7ilooo" Rahaf greeted Mariam as she got in"Hala walla""Shlonich?" Shaikha asked"Zaina, bagoolikom shay"they looked at her "Allah yaster..""Shfeech?""What if I made Ya3goob divorce his wife?"
"HAA? LAAAISH?"" :O ""cuz abee"
"OK tabeena bs mo ib kaifch tfargeen bain awadim!"Shaikha just stared, mo mistaw3iba ily ga3da tgola Mariam
"Banat, mishaina?" Mariam big-smiled like nothing was going onShaikha turned her face to Rahaf and Rahaf stared back at her, after a few moments they headed off to Nino.When they got there they sat by the windows next to the beach, and made their orders. Rahaf looked around and Shaikha played with the salt she sprinkled on the table, Mariam was excited and looking foreward to the evening.. --
It was Fajer's last day at the hospital, and Lulu was outside making payments for Fajer's admission. "Aloo?""Alo halla mama shlonich?""Halla yuma wainich ams ba'3ait akalmich! kint ib ma7al Abrecmomba malkom hatha ily habeen fee, ligaaitlich training yhabil sharaita lich o ma3aa t-shirt ham 7iloo""Hehehe mashkoora yuma tislam eedich, shlon obooy 3asa mistanseen?""Weee, ta3ban maskeen kil ma gitla ta3al 5nroo7 ntmasha gali ta3ban wla mo gader"
"Yalaa m3alaih yuma lama trj3oon inshalla tridla il 6a8a il 5aleejiya hehehe"We laughed a little and caught up, but I didnt tell her about the hospital. Lulu came in and signaled that we had to leave so Mama and I said our goodbyes and I headed out my room with Lulu.
Lulu and I passed through the halls heading to the exit, but my eyes scanned every single corner, I wasn't sure what I was searching for but all i know is that I had to find something that would fill this emptiness I was feeling. Something that my aching heart could feed on and become satisfied by.. I found nothing.
As we got into Lulu's car all i could think about was Fahad. His thoughtfulness. His face. Everything about him seemed perfect to me. Then again, 3abdalla also seemed perfect to me at the begining.. and ended up being a filthy lier.

Outgoing message Goobi
Ya3goob..i know i messed up..plz meet me in 2 hours bil 7adee8a.. its important..please!
Mariam got butterflies as soon as she pressed send. She loved Ya3goob so much. You know when you love something SO MUCH and when it's suddenly snatched away from you your mind doesnt cope with the facts of it being gone? Thats how it was with Mariam. Ya3goob was her baby. Her first love. The one she gave herself to on his birthday. The one she sacrificed everything for.. He was the one by her side during her brother's death. He stood by her through everything. She loved and still loves Ya3goob to death..

Shaikha called Fahad to check up on him...it rang but he didn't pick up. She called again..
"alo"
"Fahad?"
"hala shai5a..amray"
"shfeek za3lan?"
"obooy 6ayi7 bl mostashfa...6a7 3aleena bl sharika.."
"SHINO? 3AMI TA3BAAAN?"
"ee...i7na ib mstashfa dar ilsalam itha btyeen.."
"OK OK im on my way!!"
"Whats wrong babe?" Rahaf asked
"Gi6oony mostashfa dar ilsalam! My Fhood's daddy is tierd...!!"
This is my chance.. this was my only chance to show Fahad how much I really care about him..I need this, I need to be there...I can't blow this..
"3afya drop me home awal, omi tabeeni asa3dha ib cham sha8la.."
"Ok.."

Mariam went up to her room in a hurry.. she put on ya3goob's baby blue polo shirt, rolled up the sleaves, and put on dark skinny jeans. She grabbed the keys to her car and headed to their usual spot. Where they always went when they just wanted to talk. When she got there she began to worry. Ya3goob wasn't there. She sat on the swing. Looked behind her.. There was no one around. The place looked dead. Nothing looked the same to her.. She wanted to call him but was worried that the Slutbag would pick-up.. She waited anxiously, there were no nerves left in her body. She couldnt handle all this. Her heart was wrenched and her lungs frozen. The only movement occured when her tears fell from her eyes. It started out as a silent type of sob, then it hurt more and she couldnt hold it in any longer. Since no one was around and she was sure that Ya3goob wasn't coming, she let herself go.. She allowed her body let out all the hurt it felt. 10 minutes later she gave up.. She got up with her swollen face and walked back to her car.
Why didn't Ya3goob come? Doesnt he love me anymore? ..Her thoughts went in circles as nothing made sense to her..
*Honk*

Shaikha got to her cousin Fahad just in time.. as soon as she found him the nurse walked up to him, and Shaikha hurried to hear what she had to say.. She noticed Fahad and Haya's eyes widening.. then they got up really fast. Shai5a ran towards them.
"Shfeekom sh9ayir??"
"Galaw we can see him..!" haya shreiked
"imshaw..bsr3aa.."
"Fahad he's going to be okay.." Shai5a smiled
"Allah ysma3 mnich.."
They went in and all sat around his bed.. He looked really tierd
"7mdila 3ala salamtik yuba"
"Allah isalmik"
"7mdilla 3ala salamtik 3ami" Shai5a smiled
"Allah isalmich 7beebti"
"Yuba are u feeling okay?" Haya asked with tears in her eyes
"Ee yuba mafeeni ila il3afya lat7ateen 7beebti"
They all sat there in silence, Haya's eyes were fixed on the tv, Fahad was staring into space and Shai5a studied Fahad's beautiful features..
"Shtfakir fee?" She put her hand on his shoulder
"Mafakir ib shy...my mind is blank"
"Fhad no one's mind is blank...you can talk to me.." her hand rubbed his shoulder trying to comfort him
"I dont want to talk about it"
"Is it about 3ami?"
"Ee.."
"Shino ba3ad?"
"Ashya2 5aa9a"
"Hehe, Fahad c'mon im your cousin.."
He looked at her and forced a smile..
"Exactly"
"Is it a girl?"
Fahad began to feel uncomfortable and got up. "Taboon shay min ta7at banat?"
"No thanks"
SHai5a stood up "ayi ma3ak.."
"La, its ok.."
"Laish?"
"Wdy akoon bro7y shwaya" he smiled..
"3la ra7tek"
Haya oo shai5a both watched Oprah in silence, oo Fahad's father fell asleep.. :Shai5a's mind tried tricking her into following Fahad.
Its not healthy for him to stay alone at a time like this.. she thought
"Hayoon baroo7 il 7amam ana shway warja3"
