Chapter 27

My parents came back and days passed

If you’re asking about me and 5alid

Well we talk sometimes

I can feel that he’s trying his best to make me love him

Ok I don’t hate him

But I need time to love him

Mean while I just like him

So its weekend finally

My mum called me and asked me to meet her at the dubai mall

I got out of uni and went to my mum

She wasn’t alone

She was with 5alid’s mother

Hmm.. what’s wrong with them …

Salamt 3alaihm w I sat beside my mum

Me: sho mstwy??

Mum: i9bry shway 5aly 5alid yoo9al w ban5abrkm

We waited and then Mr. 5alid sharaf

He greated us and sat beside his mum

Thinking of everything

Am I ready to sleep with a guy who’s called me husband

Am I ready to have kids and start a family?

5alid: don’t worry you can do it ;)

Me: ha?

5alid: I told you a3arfch mn 3yoonch … you have to believe me ;)

Why is he winking now?!!!

We ate lunch

Then started shopping with the mothers

They were taking a lot of time in one shop so I got out of the shop to enter another shop after telling my mum

5alid: ta3ly hny.. wain sayra?

Me: uff .. they’re sleeping f hal shop malait

5alid: haha.. inzain bayee wyach

We walked into another shop and I started searching for tank tops and t-shirts just to wear them at home ..

I took what was about 10 pieces and then went to the cashier

Just when I was about to pay

5alid popped out and didn’t allow me

5alid: ya3ny ana raylch 3ady ma feeha shay lw I paid

Me: bs ma7b chy

Juju wore a brown short dress

Straightened her hair

And had a simple make up

And I wore a dark red dress

Curled my hair !! since I love curly hair

I also had a simple make up on..

At 8 we were ready

And went to the senior gathering

Don’t worry only the girls were invited…

We enjoyed our time then at 12.. juju dropped me home

I entered the house

Took my abaya off…
