29

Next day was an exam day so i went a hour ahead. A force of habit. 

I got there and the first thing i did was enter the cafeteria. The cafeteria is designed in such a way where it seems like a real cafe and when you first enter, on your left theres like a sitting area in an arabian style. 

Layla and her gang were sitting there, so was maryam. It looks like a little creative thinking girls study session.

"Hessaaa ahlaan" greeted layla, it's creeping me out i swear. I gave them a big smile and greeted them all with a cheek kiss greet. 

"7yach m3ana" she said, and i sat facing maryam and next to layla.

With us were 2 other girls haya and mo9'y. They all sat and revised then layla said "shrykm 3gb elemt7an n6l3?" They all agreed but i didn't.

"Laish el7beeb mayr9'a" she said playfully and i instantly hated her. 

I looked at her in a confused way almost disgust. "La shd5l 7beeb brd elbait oboi besafr elyoum" 

I lied but it had to be done. 

"L79'a 7beebch m7md mw? Chfnakm fe cine ams" they all paid attention to the conversation and maryam looked confused. 

"La shd5l ra7w drasa ana knt barou7 bs mar9't omi galat mabtdrsoun" said maryam in defence. 

"Wee y3ni omkm 3ady 3ndha t6l3on m3a 9byan" she asked with a mocking chuckle. That's it i'm suffocating this layla girl. 

"La akeed mw 3ady ay 9by, m7md w ana rb3 mn elthanweya w e9er wld 5alat maryam a3t8d mafe mshkla fl mw9'oo3" i stormed at her. 

"Enzain enzain magelna shy hdi" she said again with a chuckle and m7md entered. He stood there in the entrance and looked at us. 

Maryam gestured me to get up and we went for him, we greeted him and we headed to the library where peace and quiet is all you can hear. 

Apparently maryam texted him to come here and i thank her for that.

"Shfekm knkm 6al3en mn hosha" he asked laughing at us. I and maryam looked at each other and explained to him what happened. 

"Ll7en el3alam m9mm ena ana w enty m3a b39'?" He said laughing as if he remembered high school days. 

"Shdrani 38ool mree9'a el7mdela wlshkr" said maryam and i laughed. 

"Bs bs allahm lashmata 5l ndrs shwy" he said.

After the exam which i didn't give my 100% as well but did good, i went back home. 

[Layla's POV]

We were at Starbucks sitting and trying to enjoy my after exam coffee, "Uff 8hrtni chfty shloun etklmni?" I said angrily, who the hell does she think she is to storm at me and leave. 

"Bs 5l twali latnzlen nfsch lha" said haya, i chuckled in disgust and decided to text mona.

Me: "mona 9ij m3a b39' ohma twha galat" 

Mona: "7lfai hahaha knt 7asa"

Me: "t5yli tmt et3and w etgol la la w fl a5er lw etchofen wayha awal ma dsh fazt la" 

Mona: "y3ni m7md malga a7sn mnha" 

Me: "shdrani t8hr wala" 

Mona: "geltlch mat9dgen" 

Me: "ahlch ydroun enha m3a wa7d?"

Mona: "la shkla 7ta omha w oboha"

Me: "elsakt 3n el7g shai6an a5rs lazm ydroun"

Mona: "ama?"

Me: "ee mabt5sren shy"

Mona: "hahahaha okay 3yal" 

[Hessa's POV]

I sat in my room on my computer skyping shaikha.

"How's university with you?" I asked, "it's tough as a first year, foundation b3d mw first year" she said.

"Hows yours?" She asked, "well ams i went with m7md to cine cafe and studied w b3dain et9lt feni w7da esmha layla madri mn wain lha r8mi w elyoum hl layla thei g3dt ts2lni as2la etha ana m3a m7md narfztni" i said.

"Wee shfeha thy shla nrfztch?" She said, "gamat ttklm knha tstahz2 w9'3ha may6mn a7s wraha shy" i said.

"La la w7da f9'oolya enty et3rfen lma elsalfa feha m7md tlgainha m3jba wla shy w m7tra" she said reminding me of school days, and she's probably right, this layla girl is my last concern.

My mum knocked on my door and informed me that we'll be going to grand mothers house.

I shrugged knowing mona will be there, "lazm?" I said, "la wala?" She said, i sighed, she laughed and she left.

"Uff mali nfs nas, i should go and get ready i'll talk to you on whatsapp" i said, she laughed and said "okay."

I got up and got ready wore a sleeveless black and white checker blouse and my trusty black genie. 

I wore that charm bracelet along with other bracelets and wore my abaya and veil. 

We left to gramma's which was the usual family gathering spot, i sat next to mum and everyone was here.

They were talking about someones upcoming marriage and i just sat there lost in translation. 

Mona was giving me stares which creeped me out, i was mentally yelling 'stop looking at me' 

"Enshala bnatna b3d yn56bon w nfr7 fehm" said gramma, "hessa btn56b" said mona, i had a huge question mark on my face and a what the hell expression.

"Btn56b?" Said my mother while looking at me and i shook my shoulders indicating i had no clue.

"Ee ehya galatly 7beebha by56bha" she confidently said, and everyone looked at me in shock.

I felt my face heat up, what the heck is wrong with this girl, how can she bluntly say such lie in front of the whole family.

"L79'a l79'a mta geltlch 3ndy 7beeb twa 56eby mtwafi shnw mast7y 3ala wayhy?" I said hoping that i have made my point. 

"Latshal5en ams 6al3a m3a" she said and they all gasped in shock, i wanted to cry what the heck. 

"Ee ams 6l3t m3a wa7d bhdf drasa w b3dain enty malch sh3'l fe bnty ana a3rf hl 9by w el7mdela m7tram w e5af rba w adri bnty malha bswalf 7beeb ma 7beeb" said my mother in defence shutting mona up.

"W b3dain 3aib etshwhen sm3t elnas ashkra jdami w jdamha" she added. "Wala mw mshklty etha bntch chthe" she said while getting up and heading upstairs. 

I wanted to get up and pull her from her hair forcing her to sit on her knees and wait till my mother was done with her conversation but she just disrespectfully left. 

Leaving everyone thinking whether she was right or not, and i just sat there having a calm anxiety attack, hoping that everyone knows the truth without me needing to explain.
