 "Wain ray7a?"

Reem felt Ali standing close to her, she tried so hard not to cry.

Reem: Ali please-

Ali: la Reem entay ele please!!

Reem looked to the opposite side, she closed her eyes so tight so the tears wouldn’t fall out.

"6al3ene" Ali whispered.

Reem couldn’t hold her tears anymore, she couldn’t stop herself from crying.

Ali: Reem… walhan 3alaich

Reem gasped.

Ali: Reem.. a7ib-

Reem's mobile ringing interrupted Ali… it was her father, she quickly clicked on the elevator button and it opened, she looked at Ali and whipped her tears away.

Reem: 7ata ana 3ali.. 7ata ana.

The elevator door closed, Ali kept on standing in the same place trying to grasp what happened.

Reem whipped her tears away and walked quickly to the car, she got in and drove off.

Father: shway shway baba shfech?! Wain elmalaf!

Reem didn’t want to look at her father so he wouldn’t notice her red eyes and nose: weeh yuba wayed malafat! Ma 3araft ay wa7id!

Father: ma ligaitay Ali foog?

Reem: la

Her father knew that she was lying, even if she was trying so hard to hide her face but he can still see her teary eyes and hear her choked up voice.

.

.

.

"AKH BAS AAAAKH!!"

Faisal: 3ali! haaad a39abik yakhi!

Ali: shlon? Gole shlon!!! Tadre ene a7ibha tadre!!! o la 7ata ehya t7ibne o eb titzawaj hal-

Faisal laughed: bidon sab tikfa

Ali: magdar atim sakit f9ail magdar!!

Faisal: shbtsawe?

.

.

.

Reem parked her car, her father gave her concerned looks with his caring eyes.

Reem: yuba? Shfek? Wi9alna yalla inzil

Father: baba Reem feech shay?

Reem smiled: la

Reem's father got out of the car, but she didn’t.. she needed to take a cruise in the street of Kuwait, not such a fancy idea but it relaxed her, driving around while sipping her Starbucks drink helps her think of everything she can't think of clearly while she's at home.

Reem sent Asma a text.

Asoma I'll cruise, go to Starbucks palms, then I'll come pick you up!!

.

.

.

"SHE'S CRUSING"

Faisal yawned: efff ya3ni? Shasawelha?

Asma: FAISAL RAKIZ IFFFF!

Faisal laughed: MRAKIZ LA T9ARKHEN LA KAAAF

Asma went quiet for a couple of minutes: FAISAL LA TZIF!

Faisal laughed: 7aaaather yalla khalsay golaaaay

Asma: Reem doesn't cruise ila lama ykon thayig khilgha

Faisal: walain

Asma: eeeeee!!

Faisal: ee ya3ne akeed betheeg khilgha!!

Asma: FAISAL!

Faisal: ohhhhhhhhhh min ga3adt wentay Faisal o Faisal! Shtaben?

Asma: FAISAL GILTLIK LA TIZFNE!!

Faisal laughed: enzain mane zafich golay shno el plan al7een?

Asma: ismaaa3

.

.

.

"Ifff 6awal"

Her mobile buzzed.

Adre ta2akhart, 5 minutes wakon 3indich.

Reem kept on repeating what she wanted to say, she wanted to be short and clear.

Reem: 7amani ana mabe atzawijik! La la 7aram uhh 7amani ana… UGH MADRE SHAGOOOL!!!

Reem saw 7amani walk inside, he was looking for her, Reem smiled.

Abdulra7man: guwaaa!!

Reem: hala

Abdulra7man:  laish mo 6alba drink?

Reem: sharabt!

Abulra7man: inzain ba6lib wayech

Reem smiled.

Abdulra7man felt that what Reem wants to talk about is something negative, he felt it from her looks, her yellow smile and her tired eyes.

.

.

.

"Faisal! Ta7acha!! Ali wildi a7is feeh! o 7asa ina kilish mo 3ala ba3tha hal youmain."

.

.

.

Abdulra7man: hatha ana o yeetch! Golay shelmawtho3 ele bintkalam 3ana

Reem: ele sawaita ghala6 7amani

Abdulra7man: shsawait?

Reem: kint el mafrouth tyene ana tgole gabil la tkalim omik

Abdulra7man froze in his place: o min mita elnass ykha6bon chithi?

Abdulra7man said that sentence with a cold and sarcastic tone and, it irritated Reem.

Reem: ykha6bon chithi lama yadron ina fe e7timal yinrafthon Abdulra7man!

Abdulra7man: na3am?

Reem: sima3tne!

Abdulra7aman: ma3na kalamch inch rafthatne?

Reem nodded.

Abdulra7man: bas entay giltele ina mako shay bainich o bain 3ali!

Reem: o shdakhal 3ali bl mawtho3? 7amani ana a3ideek eb 7isbat okhoy!! Magdar atkhayal tkon rayle magdar!!!

Abdulra7man: ok

And just like that Abdulra7man left Reem and walked out, Reem kept on staring at the space in front of her. She felt her heart sinking, Abdulra7man was her closest cousin and friend and she just lost him, she lost the attention and care he always gave her, she lost her cousin and best friend for a man that she doesn’t even know if he's sure about the way he feels about her.

She blinked twice and quickly, Reem closed her eyes for a couple of minutes…opened them and found Ali standing.

Aked ga3da atkhayal!

He was staring at her with loving eyes, he had half a smile on his face.

La la akeed mo ohwa!!

Reem looked at her mobile, ma3qola asom?

She found a text from Asma.

 TALK TO HIM. Kill me later. I love you.

Reem raised her head and found Ali standing exactly beside the chair in front of her.

Reem: masadig!!!!

She stood up grabbed her purse.

"9akait 3ala sayartich ma ra7 tgdaren ti6l3en…"

A week passed, Ali started working in the company, Reem was still hesitant about Abdulra7man..


Ali sipped his coffee, it was a quiet and peaceful morning, having his mother around made his morning even better.. his father was in a business trip so he had the chance to spend a couple of days with his mother.




"Ali?"



Ali: hala yuma


Mother: shfek 7abebe?


Ali smiled: mafene shay


Mother: tkhish 3an omik?


Ali sighed.


Mother: mo 3ajbik shighlik? Mo mirta7?


Ali: la yuma bl 3ax!! elshighil moree7 o ma yta3ib


Mother: 3ayal ya yuma!! Shfeeek?


Ali smiled: mafene shay! 9adgene law fene shay bagoolich


Mother: 3ala ra7tik


Ali walaht 3alaiha..

.

.

.

"Reem a9iblich 3a9eer?"


Reem was in deep thought… she was thinking of Ali…Abdulra7man…what is the right thing to do? Ali was pretty clear when he sent her the "Mabrok" text! She regrets not texting him back and asking him if he actually gave up on them..


Mother: REEEEEM



Reem: hala?


Mother: shfech ma triden 3alay?


Reem smiled: ma sima3tich!


Her mother sighed: a9iblich 3a9er?


Reem nodded.


Father: elyoom ejazat elsayiq mno feekom wida iyene yakhithne min eldawam?


Mishary: REEEM.. aked Reem widha!!


His father hit him on his head: ma minik fayda? Wilde 3ala el6aaal?!


Mishary: bas yuba ana-


Mishary was talking with his mouth full of food, Reem smiled.


Reem: 3ade yuba ana amirik!


Mishary: anlaaam asameeha el7ub?


Reem smiled.


Mother: yal 3ayaar cham wa7da ghairha tnadeha el7ub?


Mishary laughed: yumaa!! Sh'hal 7ache elbaa6il hatha! La tathlmeen wildich afa 3alaich bas… agool yuba? Shlon elsharika?


Mother: ee thayi3 elsalfa


Everyone laughed.


Father: mumtaza!


Mishary: shlon hatha mudeer elmaliya el7arami!!


Father: tifanash o yebt bidala Ali AlFlani y9er 7ag Asoma rifejat ikhtik


Reem's heart skipped a beat when she heard Ali's name.. she missed him so much and she had no idea if he misses her or even thinks about her anymore.


Mishary: o shlona? Sima3t kan 3inda wayed mishakil eb sharikat oboh!


Father: 7ache fathee, el walad amen o y3ajbik


Reem felt like crying she didn’t want to hear anything about Ali.


Reem: ana el7imdallah shiba3t!! akramkom allah


Reem's mother sighed she knew about everything but she couldn’t do anything to help: hane o 3afya 7abebte


Reem walked to her room with heavy steps.. walhana 3alaih

.

.

.


"YA3NI SHBASAWE? F9AIL ANA BIL DAWAM LA TNARFIZNE!!"


Faisal: is2aal Asom!! Shdarak inha wafiqat! Tara isboo3 ele mar mo qaaarn!


Ali: isbo3 bas?


He felt like it was the longest week of his life.


Faisal: eee!!


Ali sighed: inzain wana 6ali3 min eldawam badig 3ala Asom


Ali missed Reem so much, he missed her voice, her laugh, her random yet funny stories.


He held his phone.. searched her number.. clicked on the green button.

.

.

.


Reem's eyes were suddenly full with tears, she quickly sat down.


Asma: shfeech?


Reem showed Asma her mobile's screen.. it read Ali AlFlani Calling.


Asma had no idea what to say: umm btriden?


Reem wiped a single tear that fell from her eye: la


Asma: bas-


Reem: laish arid? 3ashan ygole mabrok?! Shbeegol mathalan? Asom bas ana ta3abt!! Ta3abt!

.

.

.


Ali closed his eyes tight.. min 9iji mitwaqi3 inha trid?


Ali started typing a text..


Reem..please pick up, I need to talk to you.

.

.

Asma: Reem-


Reem wipped her tears away: mabe Asom mabe!!


Asma: 6arash msg!!


Reem: akeed bekon barid ma3ay!!


Asma: inzain shdarach?!! Shofeeh shaybe ygol!!!


Reem grabbed her mobile and typed back a reply.


Talk about what?

.

.

.


Reem was never cold to Ali, it was the first time that she replies that way.


Ali sighed and sent back a reply.


Reem, I miss you.

.

.

.


Reem read his text and froze in her place, she missed him so much yet she was so mad at him, he made her go through a whole week without saying a word to her, how could he just simply come back? What is he expecting her to say?


Ali, I'm going to say yes.


Reem threw herself on Asma's bed and cried her eyes out.

.

.

.


Ali felt his heart sinking, it was the first time he ever felt that, she can't marry Abdulra7man.. she just can't, the only thing that Ali wanted was that Abdulra7man stays away from Reem. He's willing to do anything to prevent that marriage from happening.

.

.

.


Faisal: YAAAN!!


Asma: zain sawat feeh!! Ehya ba3ad yanat lama 6arashlaha mabrok! Gal3ita yistahil!


Faisal: wel7al?


Asma: khala yta3athab shway zain sawat feeh!


Faisal laughed: obbb 9ij ina kaydakona 3atheem!! hatha wentay bint khalta o rathya ina ma y3arif el9ij?


Asma: maarada eb yadre inha eb tarfith Abdulra7man! Bas radatla el7arak ele sawaha feeha! Khalhom y7ilon mishkilat'hom bro7houm!


Faisal: yummma minkom yal 7areem tkhar3on!


Asma giggled: ee ee derbaalik!

.

.

.


Reem was driving to her father's company, she grabbed her mobile and called him.


Reem: "halaa yuba.. khamis digayig wakon ta7at.. ok khosh"

.

.

.


Ali was going through the files one last time, it's started to get dark outside, the company was empty, all employees left when the working hours were over.


He heard footsteps ghareba! Mno lal7en bil sharika?


He left his office and found Reem's father standing.


Father: oh 3ali lal7en hne?


Ali smiled: ee 3ami 3ende cham shaghla bakhali9ha waftak!


Reem's father smiled: gawak allah


Ali: allah ygaweek, 3ami fe malaf abeek traj3a 3ugbe tan6rne akhal9a?


Father: mashe, baro7 ayeeb cham malaf mn maktibe o amir 3alaik wana 6ali3


Ali smiled: khosh

.

.

.


Reem waited for her father in the car.. while Rwaished's voice filled the air around her..


She saw her father walking towards her car, she lowered the volume.


Reem: masaaaak allah bil khair obo Reem


Her father smiled: o Mishary el masken?


Reem: Mishary ma mina fayda!!


Reem shifted her car's gear to D.


Father: LA7THA!


Reem hit the break: shfek?


Father: nisait malaf mohim fog!


Reem: waaih!! Wain nisaita?


Father: ni6ray khal aro7 ayeba


Reem: la khalik ana ayeba! Wain nisaita?!


Father: 3ala maktab el reception


Reem: fe security 3adil?


Her father nodded, he knew that Ali was up too but he didn’t say a word.


Reem: shway o rada


Reem got in the elevator.

.

.


"Waaaaih!! Shakla misha o nisa elmalaf!"


Ali got out of Reem's father's office, he heard footsteps.. they were lighter and quicker than the footsteps he heard before.


"Yumma yuma yuma!! *giggle* ana shim9a3idne ballah!!"


Ali heard a very familiar voice, a voice that he knew so well, a voice that he missed so much.


Reem: shkithir malafat ay wa7id fehom ele yabeeh!!


"Tdawren shay?"


Reem gasped, she was really scared…but her eyes quickly teared up, it was his voice, it was him.. Ali, she didn’t have the courage to turn around she knew that once she sees his face she's going to start crying.


She quickly walked to the elevator and before she presses the button Ali covered it with his hand.
