CHAPTER 21

the months passed by quick my mom kept on telling me to go out and have fun but i didnt feel like it . people kept on saying that i became extra thin because i didnt eat that much . i havent heard about jasim or seen him in the passed months . today is the day to  graduate from high school . everyone came to my graduation my family+ my friends + my cousins . this was the first time i had fun since a long time . it was the first time i smiled and this time i didnt fake it .  i stayed all night with my friends and cousins dancing and having the time of our lifes . we finished partying at 4 in the morning . i was extremely tired . as soon as i closed my eyes i slept .

 the next day  i woke up filled with excitement to go to college . i went to the bathroom i washed my face brushed my teeth and i straightened my hair . i decided to wear this 

 

i went downstairs . i saw my mother and faisel i greeted them . i used the telephone line to call asouma since faisel has my phone . 


me : aloo asouma

asouma : alooo 

me : when are u coming to pick me up ?

asouma : 10 min and ill be there.

me : ok bye

i hung up .

faisel : muneera ta3alay shwaya .

me : inzain .

i was a bit scared . i didnt know what faisel wanted to tell me . i entered the room and faisel closed the door . i sat down in the coach and he sat beside .

 jasim : i know that i took ur phone away and i treated u harsh months ago . im sorry for doing that . what i did was for your own good . so i decided to give you a 2nd chance and i hope that u wont do that again . so here is you phone .


me : thank u ( i hugged him)

i felt relieved and happy that faisel trusts me again . i wont mess it up this time .

*HORN* *HORN* 

me : i have to go now . thanks again bye 

faisel : ok take care c u later bye .

 i left the house and i entered asouma's car . i hugged asouma .

me : im inlove with ur G class <3 <3

asouma : i know :P are u planning to get a car?

me: i have my audi at home. but im too lazy to drive it .

i turned the radio on . as long as u love me by jb was on . 

 asouma: waiiii3 shal'3neya .

me : etwe3ech . u dont have nice taste in music

asouma : la wallah 3ayal sem3ay hal '3neya 

she put 7ussian el jasmi '6air' . i adore his voice .

me : i love this song . 

asouma : mo tawa giltay i have no taste in music .

me : i was wrong . are u happy now ?

asouma : eee  

we continued listening to music and talking about random stuff . after few minutes we reached the college . finally . i cant believe it . im over excited to enter. asouma parked the car and we went out . 

guy 1: hal banat naaaaar kil wa7da a7la min el thanya . 

guy 2 : eee . 


me : wai3 shal ashkal . 

asouma: ee esta'3ferallah ma3alaich minhum . 

i didnt want 2 strangers to ruin my first day in college . i just ignored . we made our  way to the fountain in the middle of the college we sat there waiting for our first mo7a'9ara . it starts in 10 min . i opened my phone and i didnt find jasim in my contact's list . im sure faisel deleted him . i decided to check my twitter . i found many dms from jasim . and the last dm was yesterday . i was surprised how he didnt let go of me after what happened .a tear made its way out of my eyes . i wouldnt be right if i kept on following him on twitter  because i dont want  to let faisel loose his trust in me again . so i unfollowed him . i whipped the tear away before asouma looked at me . asouma and i continued talking . i looked at the time and it 5:05 . omg we are late . 


me : asouma ta25arna 3an el mo7a'9ara .


asouma : ambaaih yallah ebser3a 5anroo7 


we started walking fast toward the place of the mo7a'9ara . we opened the door and the mo7a'9ara already started . i could c the proffesor staring at us with anger , before we can sit down the proffessor said :



proffossor : dont sit down and please leave u are 5 mins late 


asouma : wallah we are sorry it wont happen next time .

proffossor :  no please go out 


we could hear 2 girls giggling  at us in a low voice


  
 

CHAPTER 20

i slowly opened the door of the shalaih and i escaped . 7imdillah no one saw me . i ran as fast as i could to the address that jasim gave me and after few min i reached . i was waiting out of the deywania but jasim texted me to enter . as soon as i entered i was surprised to c FAISEL . i stood there frozen + i was shaking . faisel had a confused look on his face .

 

 

jasim : guys this is my gf muneera .

 

jasim's friends : hi 

 

i knew that from the  moment that jasim called me his girlfriend  this would be the last time i would c him again . tears were running out of my eyes . faisel had the mad look on his face. jasim was confused .

 

jasim : muneera shfeech ?

 

me : i have to go now . 

 

i ran as fast as i could back to the shalaih . i sat in the room alone crying my eyes out . 

 

*KNOCK*   *KNOCK* *KNOCK*

 

faisel : muneera fechay el bab . (mad tone)

 

i was scared to death . i was shaking alot . my heart was beating fast . my eyes cant stop crying. i opened the door . then faisel slapped me hard .  it hurts . but what hurts the most is that faisel wont trust me anymore.

 

faisel : muneera how can u do this . i trusted u with all my heart . i thought that u were a good girl . u dont do these things . but i was wrong . 

 

words couldnt come out of my mouth but my eyes were speaking . faisel grabbed the phone from my bed . 

 

faisel : did u c this phone ? u will never c it again . and what happened before a while will stay between us only . my mother wont know about it .  

 

after that , faisel stormed out of the room . i was left alone in the bed thinking what will happen now . i was sure that the love story jasim and i had ended today . i stayed up all night crying . i didnt get the chance to sleep because i keep on thinking  about the future . the sun rised and it was 8:00 . we are leaving back home . i wipped my tears away and i smiled to cover up the pain. i went to take my bag down stairs . 

lulu : gm 

 

me : gm 

 

yara : last night we didnt c u .

 

asouma : ee wain kentay .

 

me : i wasent feeling well so i slept in the other room .

 

asouma : muneera whats wrong with ur eyes they are  red  .

 

me : when i get sick they turn red .

 

asouma : salamat .

 

i took my things downstairs and i entered the car . yara + asouma + lulu kept on talking and laughing and  i was just looking out of the window and thinking . they knew that something was wrong with me . after several min i reached home . i entered the house and found my mom sitting .

 

mom : al salam 3alikum shlonech muneera estanastaw ?

 

me : ee wayed 

 

mom : shfee 3yonech ?

 

me : mafeehum shay 

 

mom : embala 

 

she held my face and she started looking at my eyes.

 

me : e3yoone et9eer cthee lama akoon maree'9a

 

faisel was staring at me . he knew that i wasent sick . he knew that my eyes were red when i cry alot . 

 mom : tabeen awadech el 6abeeb ?

 me : la2 mashkoora . ana al7een abee aroo7 anam .   

 

as i was walking up the stairs i could hear my mom telling faisel 

 

mom : shfeeha muneera ?

 

faisel : mafeeha shay . 

 

mom : met2aked .

 

faisel : ee met2aked .

 

 

i went up to my room and i closed the door . i laid on my bed staring at the ceiling .the only thing that i have left from jasim are memories . 

*FLASH BACK *

 i suddenly heard the elevator door open and when i turned around i was surprised to c jasim coming out . i couldnt resist staring at his cute brown eyes and muscular body 


he approched to me with my phone and room key :

jasim :  ur welcome i found them in the lobby beside the elevator

me : oh ok 

while jasim was handing  me my phone and room key his hand touched my hand . his hand was extremly  soft ! my face turned red from embarrasment 

jasim:  im sorry 

 

me : its ok 

tear started running down my eyes again . knowing that i wont talk to jasim or c him anymore . it hurts alot .and what can heal my pain is to c jasim again . i didnt even get the chance to say goodbye.

 

 *FLASH BACK*

 

when i opened my eyes and i turned around . i was surprised to c : jasim . 

jasim : surpriseeeeeee

me : what are u doing here ? 

jasim : asouma and i planned for  this surprise before a few days ago . 

me : so , asouma wont come ?

jasim took his jacket and he placed it around me . 

me : thank u 

jasim : ur welcome , someone said that they will call me but then they  didnt .

me : omg jasim im sorry , i swear that i forgot  to call u . 

jasim : its ok , yallah lets walk 

me : ok

we started walking on the beach together . jasim was holding my hand the whole time .  i felt so safe with him . i really loved him alot . jasim found a stick so then he decided to write something . he drew a huge heart and then he placed my name inside the heart . my face turned red . 

jasim : ur name will always be in my heart .

i smiled 

then i took the stick from jasim and i drew a bigger heart and i wrote jasim on it .

me : i love u jasim alot .

jasim : no i love u more

my face turned red. then we sat on the bench . we started talking with each other . i got to know jasim more than before .  jasim was amazing. words cant describe him  . 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

that was our first date ever . life has ups and downs . and im living the downs of life now ;(.

 

 

 

the months passed by quick my mom kept on telling me to go out and have fun but i didnt feel like it . people kept on saying that i became extra thin because i didnt eat that much . i havent heard about jasim or seen him in the passed months . today is the day to  graduate from high school . everyone came to my graduation my family+ my friends + my cousins . this was the first time i had fun since a long time . it was the first time i smiled and this time i didnt fake it .  i stayed all night with my friends and cousins dancing and having the time of our lifes . we finished partying at 4 in the morning . i was extremely tired . as soon as i closed my eyes i slept .

 

 

 

 

CHAPTER 19

we decided to play truth and dare. while we were playing truth or dare . YARA  received  a text message from a strange no . 

 stranger : meet beside the blue shalaih at 12:00 .

 yara showed us the text message .

 yara : who do u think sent me the message .

 me : i think its khalid .

lulu : eee

yara : its not khalid because i already have his no. saved in my phone . 

asouma looked at the time and it 11:50 

asouma : yara its better if you go . you wont lose anything .


yara : idk . its at  12:00 and ill go alone .


me : dont worry ill come with you but ill be hiding behind the tree.


lulu : ana ra7 ayee ma3ach muneera .


me : ok . asouma are you coming?

asouma : ill pass .

so me , lulu , and yara were walking towards the blue shalaih and after 3 min we reached .

lulu and i went to hide behind the tree. we were busy on our phones then suddenly we heard yara screaming .  i looked closely and i  saw ahmed  pulling yara's hair . he was slapping her hard too .

 yara : hedneeeeeeeeeeey 

 ahmed : wallah ra7 awarech shay ma shftee eb 7ayatech .


 lulu was whispering : what should we do .

 me : faisel and ali are in the dewaniya go call them .

 lulu : ok

 lulu ran fast to call ali and faisel . i was terrified i didnt know what to do but i cant leave yara getting abused by ahmed so i decided to do something .  i went up to ahmed to let him stop hitting yara .

me : ahmed leave yara's hair alone or else .

ahmed : or else what ?

me : or else this .

i hit him in the wrong place. after that i saw ali and faisel running towards us . faisel was mad . and so was ali .

faisel : go back to the shalaih now .

 yara  + me : ok

we went back to our shalaih . yara ran up to the room. i went to get ice for her . yara 's face was brused because ahmed was slapping her . yara was crying. i tried to calm her down.

me : yara why did he do this to you ?

yara : idk. but while khalid and i were fixing the jet ski i felt someone staring at us  . i think it was ahmed . 

me : thats why . i could c it in his eyes that he wants you back 

yara : wai3 i dont want him . he is stuck in my throat now .

faisel was calling me to come downstairs . i am terrified

faisel : how can you go out at midnight without asking me . (screaming)

me : faisel dont scream . we got bored from sitting so we  decided to walk .

faisel : muneera dont lie to me i know that u hate walking .

me : but i like it now .


faisel : muneera your grounded .

me : wth 

faisel : you will never learn if i let you do whatever you want . im doing this for your own good .

me : faisel its not for my own good its torture .

i went upstairs and i went up to a random room . i locked the door and i started crying .  why am i treated it like that . why am i not free . i want freedom in my life . ''why'' questions were running through my mind . i could hear people knocking on the door . i just ignored  the voices and everything i just wanted to be alone .i was texting jasim the whole night . he was worried about me and  he was comforting me . i slept at 6:00 in the morning and i woke up at 12 :00 i slowly went out of the room and entered the room where my things are i found the girls sleeping i went to the bathroom , brushed my teeth , combed my hair and washed my face . i went downstairs slowly and i decided to drink tea with milk . my phone starts to vibrate . it was a text from jasim

jasim : gm muneera . i miss you and i love you alot . i really need to see you today can you come to the dewaniya  . its not that far from your house .

me : jasim im grounded . i told you that yesterday .

jasim : please muneera i really need to c you . i miss you.
me : ill think about it . 

jasim : so its a yes . here is the address . be there at 10:00 

i was thinking about it . should i go or shouldnt i go . but i really miss jasim . so i think ill go . yara + asouma+lulu came downstairs to eat breakfast .

 asouma : gm muneera . yesterday we were knocking the door you were not answering so we thought that something happened to you 


me: no nothing happened to me . i was just feeling a bit sick .


lulu : salamat .


me : allah esalmich .

yara : we are going to swim do you want to come ?


me : no ill pass ;) have fun .

so i spent rest of the time texting jasim + watching tv and sleeping i looked at the time and its 9:50. i decided to apply some make up and wear this .

i slowly opened the door of the shalaih and i escaped . 7imdillah no one saw me . i run as fast as i could to the address that jasim gave me and after few min i reached . i was waiting out of the deywania but jasim texted me to enter . as soon as i entered i was surprised to c **********
