Still running for what seemed hours but really a simple 20 minutes. My tears blurred my vision and just like that I bump through a hard figure, which causes me to fall back to the ground. I look up to see a man in his late 30’s probably but damn was he hot. I got all chocked up and just froze. He handed me out his hand to help me up.

“I’m sorry, are you alright” he looked back at my entire body making sure I was alright. I quickly wiped my tears away and I’m 100% sure I look like a zombie walking this earth with all my eye makeup running down my face.

“Yeah don’t worry, I’m sorry” I smiled and walked two steps away just to find that I had about 15 missed calls from hind and 12 from 3boud. I panicked; they’ll probably kill me for running off like that without a warning. I called back hind.

“Heyy” I murmured through the phone as I shut my eyes tightly waiting for the lecture I was about to receive.

“Are you alright!?” she replied rather quickly with worry, I expected a roar of “WHAT WAS THAT ALL ABOUT” but I’m guessing she saw mohammed and knew the reason behind my crazy reaction.

“7bebti don’t worry al7yn bayeekm, I’ll just sort out my makeup and come”

“Ok babe we’re heading back to my house so come meet us up there”

“ok bye hanoda”

Just as I was about to start walking I heard the stranger say something but it wasn’t very clear. It sounded like “5alejeya?” I turned to him.

“umm eeh” I replied with a raised eye-brow and then realized this was completely normal which caused me to slightly laugh at myself. The green eyes, fair skin and light hair did make it hard for people to guess where I was from. Never has anyone ever got the right answer.

“It’s just” he was at a loss of words.

“I look different, I know don’t worry you’re not the first *giggle*” his face was priceless.

“I’m 3mr by the way” he smiled, showing off his perfect pearly white teeth.

“Maryam” I smiled back.

“3ashat ilasami”

“3ashaat ayamk, I have to go nice to meet you” I waved and walked to the nearest café to clean up all the mess on my face. That was weird. Talking to a guy that handsome while having a face of a monster. Awkward, but its not like I’ll ever meet him again so whatever.

…..

Hind’s point of view:

“Where is she” he looked at me with desperate eyes.

“She’s alright don’t worry! I told her to come to my house”

“Il7imdallah wain kanat” he let out a huge breathe like he has been holding it in for a long time, I just stared back at him wishing he’d care for me like that but that was just plain stupidity. He doesn’t and will never think of me that way. I was just a cousin to him. A nobody. I made up a story about why she suddenly left.

…….

Mohammeds point of view:

After the rough week I had, nothing will have kept me going and draw a smile on my face like Aisha. She came to London as soon as I called her up a week ago and told her about the depression I’ve slipped through again. Remembering abdulaziz, my brother. Every ounce of my being missed him. 7 years of not having him by my side. Graduating high school was one of the last memories I had with him. He was too young. Just a 15 year old who died of a rare disease in the lungs. My tears flooded my eyes. Even after all these years it still killed me.

“7mood are you ok?” Aisha put her hand on my shoulder trying to soothe out the pain. I wiped the tears quickly and smiled to her.

“I am don’t worry”

“isn’t that the reason I’m here? I’m worried about you 7mood!”

“its just that you know” I tried explaining myself but I had nothing to say. It was hard to talk about my emotions. Her phone rang.

“I’ve got to take this its mama”

“salmi 3alaiha”

“inshallah” she walked outside to talk to her.

Aisha is my aunts daughter. Her parents passed away when she was 6, in a car accident that only she survived. Since her mother was my mums sister she took her in and she became family. She was the sister my mother didn’t give birth to that’s why I called her. She knew Abdulaziz the most since they were the same age, just 3 months difference. She was also i5ty bl r’9a3a.

I sipped onto my coffee that was now ice cold since my thoughts occupied me for a little too long.

……..

Maryams point of view:

I got out of the café and started walking back to hinds house. I needed the walk to clear my mind that was already filled with conclusions that get crazier by the minute.

“Maryam” he called out, breathing heavily. “Has anyone ever told you you’re a fast walker * laughs *”

“No just in a rush” what does he want now. He kept walking next to me. Excuse me but I need my privacy. I was already not in the mood.

“look 3maar *sigh* can I be alone please I want to be alone” I stopped walking and forced a smile.

“3mr *he corrected* and I’m just walking with you because you aren’t feeling well so I just wanted to check if you’re alright”

“I am, thank you now you can leave” I pointed to the opposite direction.

“I’m only leaving when I know you get home safely! 3shan at6man w ‘9meri my2nbni” he smiled and started walking. “yalla *chuckle*”

“Fine but I’m not responsible for the injuries you’ll get as a gift from my brother *giggle*”

“Ouch she has a brother” he acted pained.

“b3aaad! What exactly did you have in mind to do exactly? Charm me with some magic, flirt and then get my number” I raised my eyebrow. “not in a million years”

“you’re a tough one! I was just making conversation * smirk * I’m not that kind of guy, I would certainly not take advantage of a girl alone, I have sisters” he looked at me and his expression was hard to read like he was serious and a little pained that I would think like that of him.

“I’m just messing with you”

“I know”

“we’re almost there by the way” I smiled.

After 5 minutes of walking silently we have finally arrived.

“thank you 3mr”

“Yes! she got it right this time! Must be the handsome face! *smirk*”

“someone’s full of himself *giggle*”

“at least it made you laugh” he smiled. “it was nice accompanying you”

“It wasn’t bad after all” I smiled, I haven’t thought of mohammed for the longest time ever since the incident. This guy sure has his charms.

I waved and knocked the door to finding Arleen opening it with a wide smile.

“Welcome miss Maryam” she greeted me with her thick philipino accent.

I got in and just as I was taking of my coat hind runs and hugs me tightly.

“Don’t ever! EVER don’t that again!”

“Promise” I hugged her back tighter. “wheres 3boud”

“upstairs he doesn’t know you’re here”

“what does he know”

“that you forgot your wallet and you didn’t realize you also forgot your phone back at the apartment which explains why you didn’t answer”

“what will I ever do without you?”

“you’ll not live a second without me” she fluttered her long eyelashes.

“th8a much?”

“e7iglyy” she smiled widely. “3BOUD SHE’S HERE”.

He sprinted down the stairs and slapped my right arm softly.

“Ouch! What was that for!” I rubbed my arm.

“for not taking your phone with you! Now come here! I was worried!!” he grabbed me into a bear hug.

……..

Hind’s point of view:

And there it was again. All the love and care he had. I was just standing there like a statue. How much I craved to be the one in between his arms.
