I forgot to close my curtains last night, so that called out for the sun at 6 am. Once I wake up, I never can go back to sleep. I just lay there; blasé. Snuggled my heavy blanket, and stared at my ring on my forth finger of my left hand. Nope, it wi…

He died. Just like that. Honestly, it was like a knife had cut the veins of my heart; the hard veins, leaving me heartbroken. Nothing in this green land can explain that feeling, it wasn’t mutual. I didn’t share it to anyone, hardly anyone. My frie…

Aliyah woke up to the sound of her annoying alarm at 7am..god why did i register for such an early class on Sunday! she was the only one from her friends who took early morning classes and she regretted her foolish decision…she quickly took a shower..and dressed down for her computer class..she wore her favorite abercrombie pants with a cozy sweater..she put a little bit of Dior’s lip gloss (pink ofcourse) and some eyeliner..she looked at herself in the mirror and approved of her early morning look:P
she walked to class since the weather was amazing..a light breeze here and there..she kept thinking of him..did she make the right decision by breaking up with her high school sweet-heart..he was her first love..she kept thinking about fahad all the way to class..
The university looked empty since hardly anyone takes morning classes with the exception of nerds..she looked for her class since it was the first time..
she was confused..was it on the ground floor? first floor? she didn’t know what to do..she saw some faces but they were unfriendly faces so she looked for a friendly Khaleeji face to ask..
She saw a cute guy..really cute..tall..a bit on the skinny side..wearing a GFF white shirt with jeans..he had intense eyes..really intense eyes..they were absolutely stunning..
he caught her looking at him and he smiled ..a really warm smile that melted Aliyah’s heart right there and then..
He came up to her and asked her,” asif bs entay eb 9af elcalculas” in a thick Kuwaiti accent
Aliyah was at awe at her luck..a cute guy actually approached her..not in a tacky way but she liked how this started..
she said” la walah ana g3da adwer 9af elcomputer oo 7dey thy3a”
the guy laughed..
his laugh..wow..she actually had butterflies in her stomach..
he said,” my friend eb ur class..its that one”( he pointed out a class on the right)
Aliyah” thanks walah matga9er mm..”
the guy responded” Mohammed” with a big smile “oo entay?”
Aliyah couldn’t believe her luck..she was usually known to be the unlucky one in the bunch with her friends..she couldn’t wait to tell the girls back in the dorms abt her encounter with prince charming…
Aliyah blushing” Aliyah”
Mohd” 3shat elasmii oo 3ashow ahal elbahrain“
Mohd immediately warmed up to her..he loved the way she talked..
she was really cute..
as they say..dshat galbaa elebnya right there and then..he was hooked..even though it was quick..
Aliyah” 3shat ayamik mohd..i better go to class see you”
Mohd” enshala bye aliyah elb7raniyaa:
Aliyah laughed and walked to class..
She couldnt concentrate in class..who was this guy..he seemed nice..really nice and she wasnt the type of girl who falls fast..but she had butterflies..this wasnt just a cute guy..this felt different.
she felt guilty..she was just thinking abt Fahad now this guy came to the picture and messed up with her head..
she was confused..maybe he’s just nice..and thats that..why am i making a big deal..the class went by really quick and………………………………………………………………..
To her suprise when she left her class she saw Mohd waiting for her by the class..
Mohd” how was class”
Aliyah trying to think of something since she had no clue what was going on in class said” it was boring heheh what do u expect its a computer class”
Mohd laughed ” ana i have class at 9:30 sij malee 5lg..
Aliyah” allh e3neek” she didnt know what else to say..it sounded stupid and so not the way she talkes..she just smililed shyly at him
Mohd” t3alii sit by me yal b7raniyaa eshfeech wagfaaa”
she laughed at her new nickname and sat by him not too close though ..wanting to play hard to get..she looked at his face..and studied his features..
he had intense eyes( i know i know i couldnt get past his eyes)
his nose..was a pure Arab nose..and when he smiled she saw DIMPLES..(wowwwwwwwww)
Mohd couldnt help but look at Aliyah..she was pretty he thought..dark eyes and equally dark eyes..she captivated him..she seemed like a nice girl..what he liked most about her..was how sincere and how real she was acting with him..usually girls are fake and over-loaded with makeup..he liked her..he was amazed at how fast this took..
they talked and talked as if they know each other
for what seemed like forever..
btw…he missed his class;)
was it love at first sight..
is it love at first sight..
yes.
yes.
yes.
and this is how the love story starts…

Is love really blind?Does that mean people in love do NOT see their beloved’s imperfections?Like age, appearance, education, life style, race, weight or “JENSIYA”, aka Nationality.Let me put it in another way;I was chatting with my friends this afterno…

“YOU THINK ITS EASY?! Its not fucking easy jana!You’re like my forbidden fruit, I love you so much and I cant do nothing about it, jana its not fair!” he snapped.
“well, apparently life is not fair! You love me I love terki, farah loves you!” I clamped my hand over my mouth when I realized what I just said.
His sharp eyes widened in disbelief and
his mouth hung open like a goldfish ” what did you just say?!” he managed to ask.” n-nothing! , s-s3ood I got to go! P-please get out of my car” I stuttered. My face was so hot and I was sweating furiously.
He frowned and gave me an unreadable look. He got out of the car “bye” he said and closed the passenger’s door behind him.
What have I done?!!! Oh my god! oh dear lord!!!! I was panicking. “ambeee shsawaity jana shsawaity!!!” I shouted.
I didn’t know how I did it but I drove as fast as I could until I reached my house. I parked my car and headed inside quickly, my heart was still pounding and my legs were shaking. I got in the bathroom and locked the door behind me. I sighed deeply, think jana think , ambee eshhababt , I muttered under my breath.
I washed my face three times and decided to call terki , I needed to hear his voice.
” why didn’t you try to get me back when I dumped you?? Where were you in the past couple of months??!! ” I cried as soon as he picked up.
” hey hey , shfeech?!!” he sounded surprised.
I sniffed. ” answer me!!”
He sighed. ” I tried to get you back in the right way, bas your mother refused me”
“WHAT?!”
” jana, my mom e56ebtich 7agy min omich , bas omich erfethat” he said.
“why didn’t you tell me?” I whispered. I was in total shock.
” when your mother refused, I thought YOU refused but I couldn’t stay away for too long , that’s why I messaged you a month later”
” terki I’ve to go”
“wait..”
I hung up before he could finish his sentence.
I went to my mother’s room, I was so furious at her, she didn’t have the right to do this behind my back, for gods sake she KNEW how much I loved him. I knocked on her door. ” ta3alay” she said. She must’ve thought I was one of the maids.
” mama laish ga9aitay 3ley?” suddenly I was crying again.
” what? What are you talking about?” her eyes widened.
” laish mageltely enna terki 5a6abny o YOU REFUSED HIM!”
” jana 7abebti , terki maye9la7lich” her tone was so sympathetic , I was surprised.
“ohwa wayed open minded o e7na manaby wa7ed chethy yumma, entay benty elwa7eeda maby a36eech 7ag ay a7ad, jana his brother kelish ’3air 3anna, o enasbich” she added.
I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, I didn’t want to fight, I just wanted to make things clear for her ” mama ana a7ib terki, I still do, I don’t care if he was too open minded and whatever, and I think that you saw that he loves me too BECAUSE HE TRIED to ya56ebny o entay refathtay bedoon lata5theen rayey or ray baba”
” oboch kella emsafer” she muttered.
” mama that’s not the point!!! , you should’ve told me! AND I DON’T WANT HIS BROTHER!!” I yelled.
“Thanks for making my life a lot easier” I added sarcastically and left her room.
I called farah and told her everything. She was shocked and MAD , she said things like ” 5alti mu min 9ejha!! god whats wrong with her?!! Ana bagool 7ag omy t7acheha!! What the hell!”
She told her mother everything and luckily for me , 5alti muneera liked terki a lot, since her daughter was married to his eldest brother, and since my mom was her best friend ,she decided to convince my mother that he was a great guy and “enasebny” for that matter.
Two weeks later terki “taqadamly” again, this time my mother said yes, my father said yes and I said yes.
I was busy being happy that I forgot about Saud completely, I even forgot about what I had mistakingly told him about Farah.
Terki’s mom invited my family and Farah’s for dinner at her house. I had a hard time getting ready; it was different because the spotlight would be on me since I was the bride to be.
I applied bright red lipstick that matched my purplish-red dress, let my natural brown waves down and put on my four inches purple manolos.
My parents were waiting for me downstairs along with the twins. ” yuba wainech allah ehadach 9ayerlena sa3a na6reen” my dad said.
” I was getting ready, sorry yubba” I blushed.
We arrived at their house a little later than everyone else, I assumed since the parking was full. Great! I hated it when I was late, it meant all eyes would be on me, it wasn’t like feh a7ad ’3areeb or anything but still, I hated being late.
Their new house was much bigger than the older one; it had a very strategic location, the beach was just a few steps away from the house. om khaled led us inside with a big grin and lots of welcoming pleasantries.
I greeted everyone politely, hugged Farah who was stunning in her peach silk dress, and sat between her and Fay. “7addy mu m9adga enich ra7 tetzawejain, weddy ayabeb!!” Farah whispered into my ears.
“It could’ve been you” I said. She rolled her eyes.
” wain rayly?” I asked her jokingly.
” 7adda mu layeg 3alaich hehe, madry 3anna min shway kan hnee” she looked around her.
” sheno shu3orech jana?!!” Fay said excitedly.
” madry, should I be happy?”
She giggled ” wallah tara el zawaj 7elow bas you’ll miss your single life ebbait ahalech”
” ba66awil fatrat el 5e6ba 3ayal!” I panicked.
” eee 6awlay eshlech bel zawaj el7een, ge3day weyay!” Farah squeezed my hand.
“el fal lech faroo7″ Fay said ” lat3anseen o nebtelesh feech”
” wallah 3ad ana mu mesta3yela o eshda3wa feh me3ris wana madry!”
” feeh bas entay matabeena, eshzeena el rayal” Fay obviously meant Zain.
Just then Terki and Saud appeared, both looking gorgeous with their dishdasha and ghutra on. Butterflies danced in my stomach when he approached me after greeting my parents. ” eshlonich 7abebti?” his husky voice made me shiver.
” el7emdella eb5air, enta eshlonik?” I said aware of everyone’s eyes on us.
” lucky” he winked. I turned to a huge tomato; he didn’t have to do this in front of our families!
” bag3ad yamich ” he demanded.
I sat next to him , he took my hand in his. ” golay 7ag e5wanech les’3ar eyoon yammy, I wanna bribe your mother hehe” he whispered into my ears. I couldn’t help laughing, he so wanted my mother to like him.
” wahaby ,7amani ta3alaw hnee” I motioned for them to come.
Wahab, being the bold one, came without hesitation while 7amani refused. “eshfeeh thab7a el7aya?” Terki grinned.
I laughed ” ee o5ooy daloo3 o 7ayawi mayet7ammal”
Terki kissed wahab’s cheek lovingly ” what’s your name?” he asked him.
” 3abdulwahab yousef 3abdulra7man yousef N al- N” wahab answered.
” wene3em” Terki laughed.
” eshlonich jana?” Saud said interrupting us. He looked me up and down shamelessly
” tamam, enta eshlonik?” I said coldly.
” wallah 6ayeb el7emdella” he smiled. I didn’t know why but his smile scared me.
” ta3al bu 3bdul3zeez eg3ad yammy” Terki said.
Saud responded by sitting next to his brother. I tried to relax but failed, your fiancé’s brother is in love with you, a small voice in my head declared, I gulped.
“Farah, eshlon el she’3el eb dewan elmu7asaba , enshallah merta7a?” Saud started a conversation with now surprised Farah.
” el7emdella el sh’3el wayed zain , bas now emsha’3leny bil finance department o ana accounting, so lazem a7awel enny a’3ayer” she said.
” refejy yesht’3el 3endekom bel finance department, chan t3arfeena, esma zain al-M” Terki said.
“Yeah I do know him” Farah said blushing. She couldn’t believe how their paths kept crossing.
Saud looked at Farah in a way even he couldn’t recognize, their eyes met in a split second, her heart sank and she looked away.
Om Khalid interrupted everyone’s thoughts and chattering by announcing that the dinner was ready. We all headed to the giant dining room.
Everything was perfect, the evening was perfect, our families were perfect together, my Farah was perfect, my Terki was perfect and I was perfect next to him. I truly believed that we would grow old and gray together, I truly believed.
