Chapter 18

5alid’s P.O.V

I slept after talking to 3afra and her brother

I noticed how close they were

I love annoying her

She sounds so cute when she’s annoyed

I slept and woke up next morning at 10 o’clock

I went down stairs to have breakfast with my family

Me: 9ba7 il 5air

I kissed my mother and father’s forehead and sat beside my mother

Mum and dad: 9ba7 il nor
