I’m very enthusiastic about the story that’s why I’ve been posting almost everyday lool. Hope you enjoy them!
Previously;
“Yann Tiersen? Nice”
My whole body stopped functioning for a minute, but then I turned my head. It was him.
————————-
It was him. Standing tall in a black suit. Did I mention how hot he looked? “You know him?” I managed to squeak “Of course he was magnificent in that movie what’s it called Amelie?” He said.
“Le Fabuleux destin d’Amélie Poulain” (The fabulous destiny of Amelie Poulain) I whispered “Wow .. so you are french now?” He joked.
“No” I shot him a glare “It’s the name of the movie” I muttered. “Enzain” He looked at me “Chill bs knt atma95ar” He grinned. We kept staring at each other for a while. It was VERY AWKWARD. Until he broke the AWKWARD silence by saying something more awkward.
“You have green eyes” He said softly but his tone was rather shocked. I fidgeted with my hair, that’s what I always do when I’m nervous and managed to say “I know” I took a deep breathe “It is kind of obvious” I subtly smiled.
He chuckled “I just noticed they are very exotic” He said in his utterly deep voice. I immediately blushed and continued fidgeting with my hair like a freak. He suddenly put his brief case on the floor and sat on the piano stool. Yes. Beside me.
“Shu itsway?” I said quickly and stood up “Well ..” – and he looked up to me – “there were some notes you didn’t play correctly” He smiled “oo kint aba a3alemch keif tel3beenhm 9a7″ he continued.
“Huh?” I was completely shocked, do you blame me? A local of the UAE knows how to play the piano. NOW THAT IS WEIRD. “Whatever it is just uhh .. a note” I said with a confused expression.
“It ruins the whole song” He looked at me expecting me to understand.
At that moment I was speechless and when I’m speechless I usually say things that bluntly escape my mouth . “Enteh wayd ’3areeb” I said and then realized I said that out loud.
He stared at me grinning “I know” he said and then started playing the song, so much better than I would have ever played. I stood there lifeless for a moment.
“I need to get out of here” I thought to myself so I backtracked a few steps then his hands shot towards me and he held my wrist. He looked at me with his devilish eyes “Shu etze’3een min eshwy competition?” He smirked.
My eyes widened, and my lips parted but I couldn’t utter a single word.

Stay Tuned,
things just got exciting ;)

بطني يعورني
من أول ما قررت إني أواجهها، وأنا بطني يعورني
.
.
بطبعي ما أحب العتب، ولا أحب التشره
متسامحة لأقصى حد، و أحط للناس ستين ألف عذر وعذر
بس لاحد يغلط على أهلي، ساعتها أنقلب انسانة ثانية أنا نفسي أخاف منها
.
.
حتى اكس وايد متضايق من هالسالفة
ويقول ما يصير تسكتين عن اللي صار، ولازم أكلمها وأفهمها إن اللي سوته ضايق وحدة من أعز حبايبي، خالتي المفضلة اللي حتى اكس يعزها وايد، منها حيل
بس هالمرة الوضع حساس
ولازم أمسك نفسي وأعصابي وأعالج الموضوع بكل هدوء
.
.
أول مرة ترهبني فكرة المواجهة
وأقعد أحاتي، وأنتقي الكلام اللي ممكن أقوله
لأن إللي اكس يطالبني إني أوقف بويهها
إهي
إخته
!!!

راح أكلمها باجر الصبح
وإن شاء الله تعدي السالفة على خير

“HEY!” I screamed and he immediately turned his head around “Non ho mai detto che sia stato italiano!” (I never said I was italian) I glared he burst out laughing I could tell he was amused and then he just ….. walked away.

After that huge embarrassment I stood in the same spot staring at where he left. Until my brother Fahad, the oldest of my siblings, showed up. “Oh! Mabe’3aito I waited years” I complained
“Sorry 7abeebo” That’s what he always calls me “7abeebo” yep you’d think a girl’s brother will call her “3anz or something like that” but he calls me 7abeebo anyways. “Let’s go to starbucks they’ll meet us there okay?” He said “Heeh okay yalla enseer”
We headed to starbucks the one that was off the corner to our hotel. We reached there and as per usual the que was very long filled with business men and women getting their morning coffee.
Fahad and I were waiting in the line when he said ” I just spotted my friend! Bseer asalem 3alaih” “Oh okay” I said “Wait .. friend?” I suddenly asked “Heeh hako minak” He pointed to the table infront of the glass window. It was the him.
“Yalla baseer” Fahad quickly left to talk to him. I tried to hear their conversation from far but I couldn’t hear stuff except “Halla” or “Sha5barek” and that’s about it. Suddenly “the him” glanced at me and sent me the most devilish yet subtle wink.
I completely looked the other way. “Mayst7i 3a wayha!! I’m his sister’s friend!” I groaned.
After ordering and getting my Cafe Latte and my brother’s Black coffee I sat in the nearest table. Fahad came back, at last. “Sorry et2a5art” he apologized, sat down and sipped his coffee. “Who was that?” I asked him trying not to sound too curious. “Oh rbee3i” he replied.
“UF aba more information y3ni” I thought to myself “I saw him in our hotel yesterday and today” I said casually.
” ’3areeba he lives here why would he be in our hotel maybe he’s just visiting someone” Said Fahad while text messaging “Lives here?” I asked “Yeah he studies here” Fahad continued messing with his phone “Studies in NYC impressive” I thought to myself.
“What’s his name” I blurted out by mistake. Fahad took his eyes of his phone and looked at me weirdly “Shu ey5e9ch b3d?”
“Laa I meant his family name” I tried to make up something “Lanh my friend her brother b3d studies here” I smiled slightly “Ohhh his name is Rashid Al x” said Fahad
“Al x? Could he be dad’s friend’s son?” I asked curiously “Heeh weld 5ali Sultan” He said ” U5o goum Sara?” I asked with curiousity boiling in my eyes.
“Heeh heeh bs 5ala9 wayd ts2eleen 6afarteeni” He sighed ” ’3areeba I don’t remember him at all!” I said raising one of my eyebrows “Well he was very quiet and never took part in our “play dates” ” Explained Fahad
“He doesn’t look like a loner” I thought to myself “He looks like a flirt”
———————-
That night for the oddest and unknown reasons I could not sleep. Every time I close my eyes I would see his face barge into my dreams. What the hell does he want? I barely know him! But there is something so mesmerizing about him. His Eyes? His Grin? Or maybe his cool attitude? “STOP THINKING!” I suddenly snapped out of it.
“What is going on with you ya Fai?” I scolded myself. I looked at the clock beside my night-table it was still 11:47 pm. “hmm it is not so late” I told myself.
I got up quickly and changed into a casual black dress, wore some skinnys and took out my favorite black reva tory burch flats. I fixed my hair a bit put some labelo.
I didn’t know what to do at this time. I definitely can not go out in the city so late. “I’ll hang out in the lobby” I decided so I left my room and headed downstairs.
“Hey John!” I saw my favorite concierge “Hi Ms. X what are you doing downstairs so late?” He asked “Mm nothing really .. I just couldn’t sleep” I explained “Well I have good news for you!” He suddenly said.
“Really?” I asked “I know how much you love playing the piano and we just got a new one if you would like to try it out” He pointed to it “Woah! It .. It is so beautiful!” I nodded to John and ran to the piano. My love. Really I love the piano too much. I’d like to be a pianist but I don’t really think anyone will let me get away with it. I sighed and sat down admiring the beautiful white shiny keys.
“What should I play?” I thought to myself “Nothing too loud it is at night of course” I thought for a while “d’Amelie!” I said to myself happily. It is the most beautiful musical piece my favorite “La Valse d’Amelie” By Yann Tiersen. “Perfect” I said and tested the keys for a while and then started to play it. The music was rushing through my ears it felt so serene until ….
“Yann Tiersen? Nice”
My whole body stopped functioning for a minute, but then I turned my head. It was him.

If you haven’t realized I like bolding the word “him” for some reason! lol
Enjoy!

Here’s part 2 for y’all – it’s nice & long, because I doubt I’ll be able to give y’all part 3 anytime soon =( Sorry walla, bes shensawi? Uni lay3a chebdi as it is! Btw, have not really fixed the settings, and will get to that ASAP, but I DID make this blog open to ‘Anonymous’ comments…so lemme know what y’all think. Yalla b5alleekm with part 2 – Happy Readin’!;)
Shit. Now what? Knowing Malak, within the next half hour she’d have alerted her family, and then – possibly – the authorities. 3aisha would probably have done the same too if she had been in her position; after all, it really did sound like she’d had an accident. Without her phone now, she contemplated turning back and going home. And face 5aleel? Laaa magder – ho byes2lni layn ma en8aher w I’ll surely tell him just to shut him up. Where can I go? She thought about stopping at a grocery shop so she could call home and let them know she was still alive…unfortunately. What? Waaiiit a minute, are you really regretting life cuz you were dumped by a player? GET A GRIP ON LIFE! The blaring of horns suddenly jolted her back to reality, as the light turned green. Goddamn cameras – I could’ve cleared the signal, and gone off, and my phone would still be alive if it weren’t for them!…why couldn’t Malak just shut the phone when I asked her to?! Argh! She turned around the corner, and into a parking lot. Once she’d found a parking spot, and parked her car, she sat there idly, looking at nothing in particular. A golden Lexus pulled up next to her, and as she stared into her side-mirrors, she noticed it had a red license plate. Tears welled up in her eyes again, as she remembered him. Laysh, ya Sulaiman? Shswaitlek ana? All I did is stand by every decision you made, supported you when people turned their backs on you, comforted you when you felt pain…and this is what I get in return? Her tears were flowing freely now, and she didn’t give a damn if people could see her. She played with the ring on her finger, and laughed bitterly amidst tears. What had he said when he first saw it? ‘Too bad it’s not from me…yet.’ Bastard!
As she got out of her car and walked towards the grocery shop, she attempted to brush away the tell-tale signs of leaking waterworks. ‘Can I use the phone, please?’ she asked the shopkeeper. Taking his disgruntled nod as a yes, she picked up the phone and dialed home. ‘Hello…no no, I knew it..noo..I’m fiiine…what? Yeah, the car’s fine too…I was about to jump a red light! Oh come on, you know I drive fiiine..yeah…what? NO! It has nothing to do…oh, WHATEVER! Anyway, I’m OK, but my phone’s not. I threw it…oh fer cryin’ out loud, would you please just shut up and listen to…yes, I know you’re…5ALEEL!’ She slammed the phone shut in annoyance, muttered a ‘thanks’, and walked out. Why the HELL do guys have to have such a full-blown ego? Why couldn’t he just LISTEN to me?! He didn’t even BOTHER letting me continue, and now I’m probably going to face hell when I get back home! Screw this shit, I’m going down to the Marina, and I’ll be damned if anyone tries to interfere with my plans!
As she drove to the Marina, 3aisha tried to think of all the signs that lead to this abrupt end of four wonderful years. OK, so the first two were as friends/’siblings’, but he had mentioned marriage a couple of times then, too. She flashed her headlights at the idiots in the Nissan Patrol, who had decided to slow down as soon as they noticed her behind them. Ya Allaaahhh minhel ashkaal! Bu Shanab m9addeg 3mreh….aaa33…NEVER, you retard – not even if you were the LAST resort to save human civilization! I’d rather let us all go extinct! She changed her lane, and floored the accelerator, crossing the traffic light right before it was about to turn red. Bu Shanab was left behind, and even if he tried, she wouldn’t let him catch up with her. Corniche Road was rarely this empty, but it was a blessing nevertheless. She wouldn’t feel comfortable driving in an area populated with rich guys, and their toys…both metal, and sometimes…human. Toys…was she a human toy, too? Sulaiman…is that what he thought of her? Was she just…? Her vision blurred up as tears welled up in her eyes. Was my love worth NOTHING to you? YOU said those three words to ME first; I hadn’t the least bit of feelings for you at that time. You were too hung up on your ex to notice me! She was slightly grateful that she didn’t have her phone on her anymore; she would have probably called or texted him by now if she had. Wasn’t he man enough to tell her on her face, or at least over the phone? He EMAILED her to tell her it was over? She had suspected it had to do with 3aisha…his ex. Was it just a coincidence they shared the same name? Oh, don’t act retarded – no guy would intentionally go out with a girl, just because she shared the same name with his ex! Pulling into the first parking spot she saw, she cringed as she saw the same view he’d taken countless shots of with pride: Bu’6abi city. It did look really beautiful at night, with all the buildings lit up under the dark, starless sky.
She got out of her car nervously; there were groups of guys scattered around the Marina. She inhaled sharply, filling her lungs up with the air that surrounded her. It was slightly humid, and as usual, it smelt of the sea. She slowly walked towards the rocks, keeping her gaze lowered to avoid any unwanted attention. This is where she could unwind, but surprisingly, even the waves were filled with vengeance tonight. They were crashing violently against the rocks, as though blind with rage. As she sat down on a rock, she felt the salty spray of sea-water on her face. It also lead her thoughts astray, taking her a year behind…

Wake up, sleepy head! I’m going to play football with the guys after Fajr. Jsmi mkasser & I’m tired..I wonder why I’m not getting enough sleep these nights?;) (K)
3aisha smiled as read his message, and debated the idea of replying back to him. She was tired, and waking up so early in the morning was a PAIN..but she did anyway; it was worth it. 7araaam, he’s tired w 3ela golteh, jsmeh mkasser..yet he’s still out there playing football wiya eshabab..wenti matgdreen 6rsheenleh message?

S: *Laughs* I have a surprise for you…yalla, call me when you’re done..love ya
A: *Smiles* I love ya more
3aisha got out of bed, and walked towards her bathroom. Halfway, she stopped, and turned around hesitantly, and then walked to her window. Pulling back the curtains, she was greeted by the fluffiest clouds she had ever seen, and it looked like it would rain. Smiling at the memory of Sulaiman’s ‘weather report’, she got ready to start yet another long day, but the only difference was she looked forward to it.

OMG, the water is SO cold! Anyway, want me to take any special pix for ya?(K) Lemme know, and don’t go back to sleep!
‘Reply’
Yeah, how abt your rendition of ‘Baywatch’?:P you know, the whole ‘hot guy comin’ out to shore’ thing? All wet…and yeah, just DO IT!(K) La 5ala9, I’m up for the day now *yawn*:P
They texted back and forth all morning, taking a break for 9alatl Jm3a, and then resuming again right after. He finally decided to go to sleep around 3pm, to make up for the sleep lag that was steadily building up as the days passed by. Later that evening, she received an email with a picture of her initials written in the sand, and a heart drawn around them. So boyish, yet still so heart-warming!
‘…Low sma7ti?’ 3aisha was staring out into the darkness, when she heard a concerned, male voice. She jumped when she felt someone’s hand on her shoulder. ‘Whoa, you OK? I’m sorry, makan g9dy to scare you wela shay..w I don’t mean to sound nosy, bes..you’re..crying…shfeech?’ 3aisha quickly wiped her tears, and looked down. ‘Yeah, no it’s OK..I’m fine..thanks..’ she said in a raspy voice, which she hardly recognized as her own. She got up to leave; it was too painful to be here. This was his hang-out and she didn’t want to be seen here. ‘You sure? Hey..where you going? OK, I’m sorry..please don’t leave because of me!’ 3aisha stumbled on the rocks as tears stung her eyes, and made it hard for her to see where she was going. ‘Agulich eylesi! Are you here alone? Did you come with somebody, or did you drive here? Ma’6n you’re fit to drive right now. T3aly, weyn sayartich? Ana Bwa9lch.’ 3aisha was already near her car, and she heard a group of guys laughing, and – what sounded like teasing – him. ‘La u5ooyeh, mashkoor…walla mag9ert..I can drive fine, I’m OK’ she whispered. ‘Your friends are waiting for you..lat7aty, I just had something in my eye..’ It wasn’t entirely a lie; she DID have something…unshed tears. She tried looking up at him, but apart from seeing a tall, well-built form, she couldn’t see anything else. Her eyes had gotten accustomed to the darkness by the rocks, and the bright lights in the parking lot were just causing her additional pain. ‘OK 3ayel, tow9leen bessalameh’ he raised his hand in what seemed like an attempt to wave, then shoved them both into his jeans side-pockets. ‘Allah ysalmk, w thanks again…sorry for causing unnecessary worry’, she said while getting into her car. ‘Affa 3laych, t3aly kil youm!’ And as she pulled out of the parking lot, she heard him say, ‘Ummm..hey, I didn’t get your name..!’ She stopped, and waited for him to come by the window. ‘3aisha’ she said, before speeding off.

aliyah knew who she was going to pick..
Her heart had decided..finally.
It was a rough couple of days..but she knew that he was the one..he was the love of her life..
This descion changed the course of her life..eight years later she still wonders if she had made the right choice..so many people’s lives were effected..but i guess its a curse to live in a world always wondering “what if this happened or that”..anywys this is a story for some other time…
Aliyah picked up her phone and dialled his ever so familiar number
His warm comforting voice made her smile..
She had those butterflies..still..
He was wondering why she had been distant…and how he wants to see her as soon as possible.
Aliyah closed her phone..and looked at her closet..deciding what to wear..
She picked a yellow wrap dress ( since she was still tanned and the yellow looked good)
she wore tiny diamond earings..and her favorite Gina mini heels..
She met him in Starbux…
she came in before him..
she waited..she sent texts to her friends..telling them about her descion and where she was since they were wondering where she was..she had been lying low for the past couple of days not wanting to be influenced in anyone’s opinion..
He walked in and Aliayh didnt notice him since she was busy texting the girls..
He was looking at her with such love for a minute until Aliyah felt someone’s eyes on her..
Their eyes met..Her heart melted right there and then..Mohd had lavender roses in his hands for her…
An arrangment of 20 flowers..
he gave her the flowers..
and she was overwhelmed..
Blushing she asked: laish t3bt nafsik 7beby ..
Mohd: entay testahlain akthar..i brought u twenty flowers for the amazing twenty days that we’ve had so far..walah mat3arfen eshkether ana mistanis weyach..
Aliyah knew right there..this was her confirmation…she was right
she had made the right descion in choosing Mohd..
he was after all “7ub 7yaity”..
Aliyah: i love the flowers..walahh thank u so much
Mohd: btw i specfically picked lavender for a reason..bs i wont tel u…i’ll wait until u find out..
Aliyah was curious..
what was the meaning behind lavender roses..
she knew that red was love..white was friendship..but she was unaware of the meaning of the lavender rose..
They had a nice coffee date filled with laughter and flirting:)
Mohd: 3aloyty agdar ad5en eshwaii baraaa oo ared…
Mohd never smoked infront of Aliyah or in her company since he belived it wasnt right..he just couldnt..
Aliyah, the easy-going girl laughed: ofcourse..bs i swear that i will let u cut down on these cigarettes..bekoun my new year resolution..
Mohd laughed…: ok baby..dgyeg o ared lach..
Aliyah was playing with her fone since she was waiting for Mohd..
She got a text from him..she wondered if he had sent it by accident..
Mohd’s text :: its a ten! u r beautiful!
Aliayah laughed..she loved how romantic Mohd was..
she sent a txt back saying :: aham shay u like;) can u come back please..
Then she heard a laugh,,,Mohd was sitting next to her without her realizing…
Mohd: can u come back haa…ma 6walt 3laich
Aliyah laughed: maby ag3ed ebro7eee…
Mohd: walah i will alwys be with u..walah wala..
Aliyah: aya 3laik( blushing…her face was red)
They sat for what seemed like forever..just talking and catching up since Aliyah was a bit distant..Mohd took this oportunity since he had been waiting for it..
He liked having her back..
he knew she was going thru something but he didnt know what..
what was important that he had her back…
He walked her to her car…
and gave her a kiss on her forehead..
drive safely 7beebty..
dgeleee min to9lain elsakan
….
As Aliyah drove off..she wiped away her tears..she was happy..she was really happy
Her heart picked Mohd..
It felt good..she felt as if she was walking on air…
Isnt love the most beautiful feeling in the world??
** btw the meaning of a lavender rose is love at first sight (sigh..isnt Mohd romantic!!!!)
to be continued…
(sorry this took a while..bs i wasnt inspired..and as soon as i did.i wrote from my heart,and the words just flowed out of me…i love u all..thanks for being there for me xxx)

3aisha stared at the screen, for what seemed like eternity. She fought back tears, as she hit ‘move to’ and saved yet another email in ‘his’ folder. Why was she doing this to herself? What had gotten into her? How could she let a guy crawl deep down under her skin, and that too, a player? She should have seen it coming, what with all the excuses he had been making all along. But she hadn’t. And now…this.
She felt a sudden pain shoot up through her hand, and saw the blood on her palm. She had clenched the side of her metallic desk so hard, it pierced into her skin…just like he pierced her heart with those knife-like words. A knife that had been laced with poison. She mustered up all the strength left in her, and stood up shakily. She’d deal with the email later; right now, she wanted answers.
Pocketing her cell phone, she walked towards the kitchen, hoping she wouldn’t meet anyone on the way. That didn’t help. As she lifted her keys from where they were hanging, she heard him say ‘Shfeech, 3woosh?’ Shit. Just who she was trying to avoid: her brother. 5aleel was 26 years old, and the only one who knew her darkest secrets – only because he had his ways of getting her to talk. He’d extract information from her every time, and she knew that now wasn’t a great time to tell him what had just happened. ‘Wela shay, shfeeni? Can’t a girl go out for a cruise?’ she almost spat out. Shit. You stupid woman! Calm down…you’re giving him reasons to suspect you! ‘Yep, you’re behaving awkwardly..t3aly..eylesi hnee baby sis..w talk to me.’ he patted the chair next to his. ‘Mb wegta…tra I just want to spend some time alone’ she said, avoiding eye contact. As she turned to leave, he said ‘6ayeb..your call…bes barmsch youm trdeen min he6l3a el ‘3reeba..and you WILL tell me.’
Can I even drive? I don’t want to be a hazard on the road…I’d rather die than kill someone because of this bastard. She put her keys in the ignition, and stared blankly at the building in front of her. Memories…DAMN memories! She started the car and backed up slowly, fighting the flood of tears that she knew she wouldn’t be able to cease. Need to get outta this city…country..oh my God..I’m losin’ it! Every road had a special memory of what they shared; every place reminded her of him.
Her phone’s ringtone pulled her out of her suicidal thoughts…’hello? Hala walla…ha..? la laaa…uuufff..agulich maaafeeeeni shay..! bes m’9aygeh shway…akeeeed..i should’ve known..’ Malak, her best friend since high school had heard the news, undoubtedly from 5aleel. ‘Agulich, I can’t talk…wallaaa..uufff..malakooh I’m drivin’! Bd3em esayara elli giddamyyy…ya 7ywaaanaa…6ayeb…HE DUMPED ME!…t5aya…’ Her words were drowned by the sudden screeching of tires, and if Malak had said anything, she wouldn’t have known what it was; her phone lay broken next to the brake pedal.
Everything Else »
A heartbroken girl, who’s trying to get on with her ‘post break-up’ life. It has been four years, but she has been scarred deeply, and sometimes…the wounds still bleed. She was once a hard rock, but now…something as small as his name can turn her life into shambles. She writes this story, in hope that one day…she’ll be able to read it and smile. For now…all that forms are the tears in her eyes, that threaten to descend down her cheeks, and stain her face all over again.
This story is MY story with a LOT of twists, and the names have been changed to protect the characters’ identities. Hold on tight…cuz this is goin’ to be one heart-wrenchin’ ride…
