Chapter 10

Juju: no buts yalla goomy ‘3ayry thyabch bs keep your makeup

I just went to my room to fine a cute short dress with heels and a new 3abaya

I knew juju did that so I just smiled

I went and washed my face I can’t go out with all this makeup on my face

I wore my clothe then I decided to apply some simple make up

When I was done I went to the living room to find them chatting

When juju saw me she just started screaming

Juju: MB CHANA GLTLCH DON’T REMOVE THE MAKEUP??

Me: juju you know ina I won’t go out with all this makeup on my face

5alid: 5ala9 jawaher 5aleeha 3ala ra7at’ha… a9lan ana ma7b youm 7rmty it76 makeup w t6la3

Asma: yalla seero w ba3dain 5alid wa9lha bait’hm

We got out of the suite and walked to the car silently

We got into the car and he drove silently

Ana knt sar7ana a6al3 bara3 w afakr then he touched my hands

I freaked out

5alid: sorry bs knt yals aramsch shaklch knty sar7ana

Me: uuuh … sorry … what were you saying?

5alid: I’ll tell u after dinner

We reached downtown we got out of the car and walked to the restaurant

5alid was walking ahead of me

Maybe he was fast? Or I’m the one who’s slow with those heels

Bunch of guys were walking there they started whistling and saying ya 7lwa w ya gmar

That’s when 5alid came and held my hand gently

He gave them a scary glare and walked me to the restaurant

We sat and ate silently

We just smiled whenever we see each other

After we were done he payed and we left the restaurant

We got into the car

That’s when he started talking

5alid: umm 3afra ?

Me: na3am?

5alid: look we both are forced into this so we should work things out from now

Me: ya sure

5alid: good ,, so do u drive?

Me: not yet I’m still 17 … but inshallah when I’ll turn 18 ill get my license

5alid: good ana ma 3ndy man3 inch itsoogeen

The rest of the ride was silent

He dropped me home and said good night I entered the house expecting everyone to be asleep

But 7amood was sitting fl 9ala alone

Me: 7amood? What are u doing up late?

7amood: knt atrayach

7amood: I like how you think sisy … yalla go sleep

Me: ok yalla you go sleep too

7amood: ok yalla

We walked upstairs he took me to my room

Then hugged me and gave me a good night kiss

I love my brother

Walla he’s the best

I got into the room

Took a shower

And  before sleeping I checked instagram and found a lot of pictures which were from my engagement party… I thanked them all for coming and then I slept

5alid’s P.O.V

It was the time to enter the ballroom

Dashait w chft kl il 7reem labseen 3beehm it was just her

At the end of the ballroom

Standing … waiting for me to reach

She looked beautiful in the red dress

I kissed her head and stood beside her

We took some pictures then it was the time iny alabs’ha il shabka

7a6ait hal shay ila ylbsoona 3ala rgbat’hm I guess ismah galb shay chy

Il mhm labast’ha hal shay w il earings

W then it was the time for the ring

I don’t know why but I got her a ring with a big diamond

While placing the ring in her finger I felled that my hand was very huge according to hers

I realized that she’s tiny

Everything in her is tiny

Anyway the ring looked beautiful on her fingers

Youm kan dorha itlabsny il ring 7asait inha mst7ya w 7ata makant tba tlms eedy

Her hands were shaking

She held my ring finger gently w slipped the ring w 3ala 6ool hadat eedy

I wanted to laugh at her reaction

She looked so cute

Then the men left it was just me and her on the stage

But my family and her family came to take some pictures

After all the pictures

We were dismissed

We walked out of the ball room together but then she walked ahead of me so I just followed

She opened the suites door I just entered

I can see that she was pissed but I just ignored

I was enjoying my time watching her pissed

So I turned on the TV so I would be able to piss her more

The knocks on the door changes her expressions

The photographer came in with jawaher and her mother but her mother left after telling us to do what the photographer asks for

Jawaher stayed and soon asoom my sister joined her

They forced us to do some pauses since we both didn’t want to

But I have to admit I enjoyed her touches

As soon as we were done 3afra wanted us to leave but to her surprise we’re going out to have dinner

She was forced by jawaher to change , so she left to do what jawaher told her

Asoom: 5alood walla il bnt zaina allah y5aleek 3amlha 3adl

Jawaher: ‘3a9ban 3ana bay3amlha 3adl wla tra walla baga63k

Me: 5aiba balakm 3alay? Inzain I’ll be nice to her if that what u want

Asoom: good boy

Me: chalb ana 3ashan itgooleenly good boy?

We laughed and chatted then 3afra came out of the room

I turned to look at her but I couldn’t because jawaher was standing in front of her and shouting

Jawaher: MB CHANA GLTLCH DON’T REMOVE THE MAKEUP??

3afra: juju you know ina I won’t go out with all this makeup on my face

Ksrat 5a6ry so I decided to save her

Me: 5ala9 jawaher 5aleeha 3ala ra7at’ha… a9lan ana ma7b youm 7rmty it76 makeup w t6la3

I saw her blush for a second

Asoom: yalla seero w ba3dain 5alid wa9lha bait’hm

We walked to the car and I drove to downtown

She was silent so I decided to break the silence

Me: 3afra?

She didn’t answer me

I called her again but a bit louder this time

Me: 3afra?

Still no answer so I decide to touch her hand

When I touched her soft tiny hands she freaked out

Me: sorry bs knt yals aramsch shaklch knty sar7ana

3afra: uuuh … sorry … what were you saying?

Me: I’ll tell u after dinner

We reached downtown we got out of the car and walked to the restaurant
