She lifts her head up and finds Nasser smiling at her. She immediately sat up straight when she knew that she has been staring at him. Reem brushes her hair awkwardly as her cheeks began turning red.
Reem: " Oh sorry I didn't see you."
She wonders if he will think that she is blind. He winks at her and replies in a polite way.
Nasser: " That's fine I just wanted to say hi and here you go my number if you needed anything tell me. I hope we meet again."
He gives her a small paper with his number on it and off he went to his seat. She watches him go and looks back to the paper that's now on her lap. Elyazyh wasn't in her seat, she glances around to see if someone saw her. She sighs in relief that no one did, she can't afford getting in a mess. Reem closes the paper then throws it in her bag and looks at the window.
Reem's perspective:
What shall I do with his number? I won't call him that's for sure. Nasser he can't seem to get out of my mind since the time the flight flew away up in the air. Hours past and my mind was just dowsing off in another world as my appearance was with the people around me. Elyazyh's words kept repeating in my head.
Elyazyh: " He seems like a gentlemen to me. Why not call him he might be the one for you."
It repeats continuously but I dont believe in love relationships. I'm not in the mood for headaches and troubles.I just have to stop thinking of him and not make a big deal about it. I looked to my right to find Elyazyh asleep, to my left is Khalifa he was so into the movie I kept my laugh in while watching him. On the other hand Mayed was watching a scary movie with a serious face on. Everyone in their own world while I'm the only one about to die from boredom and not sleepy.
I stood up as my back and my ass began to hurt from setting for I dont know five hours? I stretched my arms watching eveyone asleep and sat back down. Suddenly I look to my left to find Mayed staring at me. A gasped and covered my mouth immediatly.
Reem: " Mayed bsmila zya'3tny!"
He chuckled and tried holding his laughter in order not to make any noise.
Mayed: " Haha wallah e'9a7keen you don't know how to stay seated lazim tt7rkain."
Reem: " My back hurts I got sick of sitting doing nothing."
Mayed: " Enzain laish ma eshofeen movies?"
Reem: " Maba knt aba asoolf wya e5tk bs rgdat -.-"
Mayed: " Enzain 5alna nsoolf."
This is the first time he ever said that to me which made me shocked.
Reem: " You and I we never talked before."
Mayed: " 5ala9 3yal I'll go back to watching the movie."
Reem: " Laa laa !"
When I pulled the headphones I accidentally touched his cold hands. I quickly took it away and found him staring at me. That was awkard I cursed myself for putting me in this embarrassing situation.
Reem: " Sorry."
I apologized without noticing I didn't want it to be more awkward when we're quiet. He smiled when I looked at him he is killing me with his looks.
Mayed: " Laa 3adi laa ts7een mny ana nfs e5och."
We began talking and talking. He asked me which college am I planning to go and what do I like to do. It was like he planned for this conversation he seems so interested to what I was saying. It was like he was studying me how I speak and move eveytime I speak which kind off scared me. After talking for what seems hours we didn't sleep we kept chatting all the time.
Mayed: " That's interesting I never knew you wanted to go for fashion I thought you wanted to be a doctor."
Reem: " No I dont like being a doctor I love fashion."
Mayed: " That's nice for you girls not for us men."
Reem: " Haha yea. Awaih khalifa is still watching a movie wait I'll scare him,wayed mndmj."
He laughed and agreed. I threw my brush at Khalifa and suddenly he jumps as he pulled his headphones out. I and Mayed laughed loudly and the old women behind us informed us to be quite.
Khalifa: " Aaay ento ybaalkm '9arb bskm t'97koon wallah ana braweekm."
Reem: " You should have seen your face."
I kept laughing as I pointed at him. He stood up and came towards me tickling me.
Reem: " Khalifaaaa bsss HAAAAHAAAAHAAA I....cant....breath HAAAAHAAAHAAA"
Khalifa: " 3ashan t3arfeen next time ma tzay'3eeny fahmaa."
He tickled me more this time.
Reem: " Maayedd help......meee....HAAAAHAAHAA."
Old women: " Shhh sshhh you people are so noisy cant you see we're sleeping."
Mayed: " I'm sorry."
Mayed pushed Khalifa back to his seat.
Reem: " Shkraan Mayed uff ba6ni y3awrni kla mnk Khalifa!"
Mayed: " Wallah 7aram 3laaik hahahahaha."
Khalifa: " A7san a7san."
I excused myself to go to the toilet but suddenly I fell on the ground and bumped my head on Mayed's seat.
Khalifa: " Hahah tstahlaain."
Reem: " Oho Khalifa tra it hurts I cant move."
Mayed: " Wait I'll help you."
He stood up in front of me helping myself up as he placed his hand on my back and made me stand, Shivers ran down my spine from his touch and the way he hugged me like a baby child. I was short compare to him. My hand was on my head as it's in pain.
Mayed: " Slowly walk latsr3een."
I could feel his musceled arm on my back. I relaxed my head on his chest I couldn't keep it still. I went to the toilet washed my hand and face. I opened the door to find him there standing politely waiting for me. What a gentlemen I never seen this Mayed before and to be honest I loved this one much better.
Reem: " Its ok Mayed you didn't have to wait."
Mayed: " Laa 3adi."
On our way in I found Nasser right in front of me. My eyes were wide open looking at him but he wasn't glaring my way, he was looking at Mayed. I felt a mysterious feeling growing inside of me a bad one.

Chapter 18 - Unbreakable
Elyazyh’s perspective:
When he said it, my heart began pounding so fast against my ribcage. My stomach began to tingle as shivers ran down my spins from his touch. The word I love you began repeating in my mind none stop. My lips were kept sealed I couldn’t speak perhaps I didn’t know what to say. I’m stunned.
Khalifa: “ I know that you’re shocked and paralyzed but Elyazyh I love you I really do. I promise you I will never hurt you.”
Me: “ Umm..I really don’t know what to say this is happening to fast.”
Khalifa: “ Do you love me?”
What do you I say? Yes I love you Khalifa? Hmmm I don’t know with Rashid I said it but with Khalifa it’s different. I’ll just follow my heart and say it, nothing to lose.
Me: “ mmmm yes.”
My cheeks began to turn red and warm, as if rainbow colors were flashing all over the sky. I looked down on the ground shyly avoiding any eye contacts.
Khalifa: “ sho yes (smirking)?”
I love it when he smiles it shows his cute dimples on both cheeks. He is just trying to get on my nerves and force me to say it. I won’t say it.
Me: “ Khalifa !!.”
Khalifa: “ Yes?”
Me: “ T8haar!!.”
Khalifa: “ I don’t have all day ok yallah say it (acting cool).”
Me: “ Fine I love you happy now.”
Khalifa: “ Thank you.”
He kissed my right cheek that were glowing the red color and left. Excuse me? Is he playing with me? Ma3laih Khalifa. I looked at the time and remembered that Reem is waiting for me. I swifted back in and called her.
Reem: “ Mashallah 6ool hal wagt sho tsaween t9e7een 7abeeebty?”
Reem being sarcastic just like always. I laughed hysterically as some people gave me weird looks while passing by.
Me: “ Hahaha la t3aly bagoolch everything. I’m so happy!”
Reem: “ Haih haih akeed because you left me.”
Me: “ Fdaaait wayhch akeed. I’m joking wallah.”
I grabbed her hand so she wont slip away from me and go to any shop she sees. Seriously t3abt min kthr ma nsawy shopping. I told her everything from A to Z. The whole time she was saying Chthaaba. Now why would I lie?
Reem: “ Omg so the whole time he was saying I love you malat 3laaikm.”
Me: “ Chub it was romantic.”
Reem: “ Yea so romantic in the parking.”
Me: “ (laughing) Chub Reem yallah mta bayi doorich.”
Reem: “ I have no idea haha. Zain so you got what you wanted which is Khalifa I hope ma ywadrch or I’ll kick his ass.”
It was already 11:00pm so we decided to go back home. In the car we were planning on what we shall do in Los Angeles and London. First we will be going to Los Angeles for couple of weeks afterward we will travel to London for a week. We were busy discussing that we didn’t even realize that we already reached home. Both of us departed our separate ways said good night and directly went to sleep.
Narrator’s perspective:
It finally came the day where their journey or shall I say trip is ready to start. The sun rose up shinning brightly allowing it rays to enter the house awakening them. The sky was blue with clouds scattering everywhere with different shapes. Birds tweeting as they flew from one place to another until they reach their destination. She sat there by the pool, reading her favorite book as she sipped her coffee that was in her pistachio and pink mug that she brought from Turkey last summer. It was quite and peaceful day until her best friend came and interrupted her moment of being alone.
Elyazyh: “ Reem come on get dressed we are going to leave now!”
She glances at the time and quickly drinks her coffee then carries her story and rushes up the marble stairs and into her room. She wore hot pink Cavalli tracksuit with LV side bag and pink Hermes slippers. She applies simple makeup on her pale face, allowing her black curls to flow. In contrast Elyazyh wore long black and pink Missoni dress with Hermes ballet pumps, Prada purse with pink Fendi scarf covering her hair. Once she is done she checked if she brought everything she needed like Ipad, Ipod, story etc..
Reem went with her parents including Khalifa while Elyazyh went with her parents and Mayed. The airport wasn’t that far from there place which was better for them. When they arrived, their parents went to check on their immigration on the other hand Reem, Elyazyh, Mayed and Khalifa decided to go to duty free to buy some junk.
Reem: “ Elyazyh look behind you, there is this guy he’s been following us everywhere.”
Elyazyh took a glance behind as if she is searching for something. Then she realizes that the guy is coming to their direction.
Elyazyh: “ Kla mnch now bayi 3ndna act normal.”
She nodded and the next minute they knew he was right behind them.
The guy: “ Good morning ladies do you need help I saw you searching for something (smirking).”
What a flirt and he got an excellent American accent Reem justifies to herself.
Reem: “Good moring to you to..no thank you we already got what we want but thanx anyways for the help.”
She gives him a warm polite smile.
The guy: “ My pleasure it was nice meeting you-.”
Reem trying to think of a name.
Reem: “ Meera(smiling).”
The guy: “ 3ashat el2samy, w ana esmy Nasser.”
So he is local and a gentlemen Reem exclaimed to herself
Reem: “ 3ashat ayamk it was nice meeting you. I’m sorry but I have to leave my parents are waiting for me.”
Nasser: “ Its ok have a nice day!”
Reem: “ You two.”
She smiles and walks away searching for Elyazyh whom left her when Na9ir came. When she got out of the store she found on a corner Mayed and Elyazyh. She hoped that he didn’t see her talking to Nasser. While walking her heart kept racing and her hands began to sweat. He gave her death stares as she came closer.
Reem: “ Elyazyh wain knty ? I was wandering around adawir 3laich.”
Mayed moves his gaze from the store and back to Reem.
Mayed: “ The question is where were you not her?”
Reem swallowed hard to clear her throat before talking.
Reem: “ I was in the shop.”
Mayed: “ What were you doing there?”
Reem: “ Buying junk.”
Mayed: “ Then why didn’t you come with Elyazyh?”
Reem: “ She left me.”
Reem got mad at what Elyazyh did which is leaving.
Mayed: “ La tlfeen w doreen ana shftch b3ainy knty tramseen wa7ed da5il.”
Elyazyh winks at Reem informing her not to worry.
Elyazyh: “ Haih kan shay wa7ed ys2al-ha about a shop so she was just telling him the way while I was searching for chocolate. She did want to ignore and be rude so she just simply told him and came.”
Reem hoped that he would believe that story or else they will both get in trouble. Mayed believed what she said but was still suspicious. Both were glad that any scene didn’t occur as they’re not in the mood for dilemma. Once they heard the annoucment about they’re flight they hurried to the gate in order to get there in time. It’s a buzz when you’re late to reach the gate as people are moving all over the place like animals in search for food or a prey.
After a long walk, at last they reached their destination in time. They got their ticket seats along with into the plane they went. As they sat in their seat buckled up a familiar figure appears when Reem was grabbing something from her bag. All she could see was a Hermes black sandals, familiar Once Million scent, slowly she lifts her head up and gasps in amazement.
When he said it, my heart began pounding so fast against my ribcage. My stomach began to tingle as shivers ran down my spins from his touch. The word I love you began repeating in my mind none stop. My lips were kept sealed I couldn’t speak perhaps I didn’t know what to say. I’m stunned.
