Chapter 20

…: who broke your heart?

I looked back and it was 5alid

I quickly whipped my tears

Me: huh? What are you talking about?

5alid: tra I heard u… who is he 3afra?

Me: no one.. yalla asoom I’ll go change 3ashan nrkab 5ail

I got out of the bathroom and walked to the girls room

Asoom and I changed our clothe and then the girls joined us and we went to the stable

We reached the stable and before we could choose the horse the guys came

Me: asoom 3ady a5tar ay 5ail?

Asoom: ya sure

I saw a beautiful brown horse .. it was just perfect

Me: aba hatha!! Sho isma?

One of 5alid’s cousins said:

Cousin 1: ha isma Peter.. and he’s hard for a little girl like you to ride it

Me: how hard do u mean?

Cousin 2: it3arfeen ina ha 3agny mn 3alaih w reely inksrat?

Me: wow.. sounds interesting

5alid: tbain titkasrain?

Me: well I don’t think he’s that hard.. then I’m riding it

5alid: no you’re not…

Me: yes I am

Saif: 5alha 5alood.. she knows how to deal with the horses

7amda was standing next to 5alid

7amda: 5aloodi balak 5alha hee tba titkasar

I just ignored them and got on the horse and left

I heard 5alid shouting

5alid: LAT6L3EEN BARA3 IL MAZRA3A BROO7CH!!

I just ignored and then one of his guy cousins joined me and we went out of the mazra3a

I made the horse run

Then I slowed down so 5alid’s cousin could reach me

5alid’s cousin: btw ismy Omar

Me: nice to meet you

Omar: you too… btw you’re good at it.. did u ever join an endurance?

Me: no.. ma 3ndy wagt

Omar: well you’re perfect mashallah

We went back inside and saw 5alid and 7amda ridding on the same horse

Ok that’s enough

I ignored them and went to put the horse back

I saw the girls sitting on the bench

Me: laish yalseen?

Them: t3abna..

Me: umm asoom ana baraw7..

Asoom: way mno?

Me: I’ll tell the driver to come pick me up

Asoom: itdalain il mkan?

Sara: ana yait b my car yalla seero badlo w banseer

Asoom: la I’m staying.. it3arfeen yado…

The rest: we’re staying too.. ma feena 3ala lsan yado..

So it’s just me and sara who are leaving

We went and changed and said our goodbyes

While walking to the car 5alid came

5alid: wain sayreen?

I just ignored..

And got into sara’s car

5alid’s  P.O.V.

I was walking back to the villa when I saw 3afra and sara walking out wearing their 3abaya’s

Me: wain sayreen?

3afra ignored me

Awaih balaha?

Mno za3alha..?

Sara: don’t you dare come near the girl!

Me: what?

Sara: we saw everything 5alid..

Me: sho ila chfto inshallah?

Sara: you and 7amda hugging.. so now don’t even dare talk to her.. go back inside .. enjoy your time

Me: bs..

Sara: latgool bs.. choof il bnt sakta w mt7amla w she didn’t even talk.. she’s holding her tears..

Me: inzain bs 5aleeny afahmha.

Sara: 5alid! La 5ala9 5alha f 7alha…

I ignored sara and walked to her car

I saw 3afra closing her eyes

I knocked on the window

She opened her eyes

Now I could see how much she’s hurt

Now I know laish kanat itramsny b hal isloob

Now I know mno mza3lnha

Now I know that I’m the one who broke her heart

A tear escaped her eyes

She whipped it off quickly

And closed her eyes again

Sara: 5alid enough!!!

Me: ba6ly il bab 5aleeny arams’ha

Sara: the keys are inside.. it’s with her…

I knocked the window again

She opened her eyes saw sara standing by the door

She unlocked the doors

Sara got in the driver seats and I opened the passenger door

Me: 3afra

She kept her eyes closed

But I saw a tear falling from her right eye

I softly touched her right cheeks to whip the tear

Me: 3afra I’m sorry

She slowly opened her eyes

Which was full of tears now

3afra: 5alid I’m tired I need to go back home.. we’ll talk about everything later… please…

Me: just let me explain..

3afra: later .. bye

She closed the door and sara drove off…

3afra’s P.O.V.

My heart was broken

This time the pain was more..

Maybe because I started loving him..

Sara dropped me home and I thanked her..

I entered the house to see my mum and dad ready

Me: salam..

Mama: halla 7abeebty

Baba: 3afra baba na7na msafreen .. sayreen inchoof o5ooch and 3alia is coming with us..

Me: itseeroon w itrdoon bl salamah.. w kiss 7amood for me

Mama: inzain 7abeebty ma awa9eech take care of 5aloof

Me: inshallah don’t worry

Baba: ha bateen itwa9leena il ma6ar wla la?

Me: ya sure

I was tired but I tried not to show them

I dropped them at the airport and then called juju

Juju: halla walla… ily lga a7baba nsa a97aba achoof..

Me: juju please

I was about to cry

Juju: hey ta3aly bsr3a w you’re going to tell me what happened

I told the driver to take me to juju’s house I reached her house and rushed to her room

I just hugged her and cried my heart out

I don’t know what happened then…
