Mbarak: Halla?

Ghalia: Manu, give me car.

Ghalia: Embala give me car now manu
Manu: Ok ok I give car, but I no responsible ok?
Ghalia: Eff okay, min galik 9eer responsible?
Rima: Yallah?
Ghalia: Yallah

We got in the car, I started the engine, I got a weird feeling. A good one.

We were jamming to One Direction's What Makes You Beautiful. We were driving around, annoying everyone. Then I got a phonecall, from Mbarak.

Mbarak: Alo?
Ghalia: Halla?
Mbarak: Wainich?
Ghalia: Ga3da aftar
Mbarak: Reday elshalaih now
Ghalia: Haw laish?
Mbarak: Ben7ader
Ghalia: Laaaish?
Mbarak: Surprise..
Ghalia: Yallah kane yaya

By the time we got to the shalaih, I opened the door to find complete and utter darkness

Sh9ayer?

_______________________________________________________________



Ghalia: Umm Khaled?
Khaled: Hmm?
Ghalia: Umm ha?
Khaled: Ghalia shfeech;p?
Ghalia: La wala shay .. kent bas2ilik su2al bas 6af 3ade
Khaled: S2lay


*Ghalia's thoughts: Sh*t. What am I going to ask him? Smooth move Ghalia. EFFF. Shagoula al7een? Ghalia think of something, quick*

Ghalia: Shrayik enazel el jet skies? *nice one Ghalia;)*
Khaled: Yallah okay.
Ghalia: Ana barou7 albis 3ala ma el9bey ynazelhum.
Khaled: Yeah, me too.

I ran up the stairs, stormed into my room, closed the door slowly. I was walking to my closet until I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror. What was I doing? Who am I? I will never be like this, not because I'm anti-men or anything but is my reputation really worth it? What if things happen between us that I wouldn't really like? No. Get a hold of yourself, Ghalia. This isn't what you were raised to do. Losing your mother, father, Mbarak, and most importantly yourself? It's just not worth it. If I really love him then I should know what's best for me, for us. I will wait until that one day he knocks on our door, with his mother. Yes, that is what's going to happen, alright, Ghalia? Right now just focus on building yourself, building friendships, and trusting in your decisions and beliefs. I caught myself smiling, and thought "Good girl." I am in love with what I have become. I don't mean it in an obnoxious way, but really I have come so far. I'm proud. The once weak and vulnerable girl is now the mature and hardworking girl I have become.

Just for the sake of fun, I got dressed into a very appropriate Barbie swimsuit (LOL) because all my other swimsuits were for the pool only. I decided to ask Mbarak if he wanted to come and he said

Mbarak: Akeed Khaled ga3ed, rou7ay weyah 3ala ma ana agoum w abadel, ok Ghalouy?
Ghalia: Enshallah, yallah bye
Mbarak: Deeray balich 3ala nafsich yalmalgoufa;p
Ghalia: Chub chub;p
Mbarak: Hahaha meta nawya te6l3een bara?
Ghalia: Ana awareek
Mbarak: 3ajebne elswimsuit
Ghalia: HAHAHAHAHA enchi3im:p

I was exicted, not for the Khaled part anymore but for fun in the sun part.

As the clumsy idiot that I am, I started sprinting towards the jetskies. I got on one waiting for Khaled to come so he would watch over me. I looked around and noticed Khaled with el9bey and 2 jetskies. If those were our jetskies, then who's jetski was I on?

I heard a burst of laughter turned around and saw 2 guys

Guy 1: Hahahaha 7aramiya?
Guy 2: W labsa Barbie ba3ad=))
Guy 1: HAHAHAHAHA AKH ba6nee
Ghalia: Tara maytha7ek;/ 7adkum sakheefeen..
Guy 2: Then why are you blushing?
Ghalia: Heh, I'm not blushing, you idiot. But I have a tendency to turn red in something called HEAT. And since we're in Kuwait, I think we have a lot of that so-called heat;)
Guy 1: Ech3imtik;p
Ghalia: W ana asfa 3abale our jetskies, bye
Guy 2 *embarrassed*: Hm, la 3ade, bye

I jumped off the jet ski and walked to a very confused Khaled.

Ghalia: Shfeek?
Khaled: La maku shay bas laish elba7ar za7ma?
Ghalia: HAHAHAHAHA SHINU ZA7MA??? *I was literally screaming.*
Khaled: Shoufay..

I turned around to see a sea full of jetskies and jet boats, ugh ew. No jetski for me.

Ghalia: Khaled, tara mabe arou7, khayes elwath3
Khaled: 7ada
Ghalia: Ana badish asba7 bel pool
Khaled: Ana barou7 I workout
Ghalia: Oh really? 7ag minu ballah;p?
Khaled: Girl, look at that body. I workout.
Ghalia: You're so lame.

I went to have a dip in the pool and a little sunbathe.
After 5 minutes or more, Rima came wobbling in her swimsuit. I had to squint so I can see her because of the sun

Ghalia: Shhal zain?
Rima: 6al3a 3alaich;$
Ghalia: Shh yallah 3ad.;p
Rima: Mu kafw w rabe -.-

I ignored Rima and indulged myself with tanning oil, closed my eyes and started to think

Ghalia's thoughts:
Hmm.. What if Khaled turned out to be a player? What if he hurt me? Why do I care? Uff Ghalia shhal ghaba2 lat7aseseene ena el9bay dae 3anich a9lan-

Rima ga6e3at tafkeere

Rima: Shtfakreen fe?
Ghalia: Rima..
Rima: Halla
Ghalia: Shrayich eb Khaled?
Rima: Hmm, madre. Ma3arfa bas a7is ena khoush wa7ed. Laish?
Ghalia: Ha? La wala shay.

We heard a voice behind us, we turned around and saw 7amad.

7amad: Wentay shaku ts2leen 3an Khaled?

Post Seven

Those few minutes felt like hours, time was dragging itself and it doesn't want to. I closed my eyes and I prayed. I prayed then I prayed then I prayed more. With my eyes closed tightly and tears still managing to escape the barrier I built, I was sick of being quiet. I had to do something, but what? What was I supposed to do? Leave her and go get the guys? Stay with her and wait for them to come?

"Ghalia.."
I heard someone say
I turned around and saw yousef.

That moment, I kneeled and broke down again, gasping for air every now and again.
He just sat next to me, and asked me in the calmest voice ever

Yousef: Shfeech?

I told him the story, and he promised that everything will be okay. And like a kid, I believed him. Then he got up, pushed the jet into the water and said he'll be right back.

After 5 minutes or so, I saw the boys getting closer to the shore, I thanked God, wiped my eyes, took a deep breath and got up.

Khaled came running

Khaled: SHFEEEHA?! SHINU 9AR?!!!

Getlihum elsalfa, and broke down, AGAIN.

Mbarak hugged me tight and said: Shh, enshallah maku shay.. Al7een kelina enwadeeha elmestashfa, w tet6amenain 3alaiha
Ghalia: Promise?
Mbarak: Promise:* *then he kissed my forehead*

We all changed in 2 minutes, maximum, and Yousef drove us to the closest hospital, I didn't know where we were because I slept in the car. I was emotionally drained. They rushed her into the hospital, and I stayed in the car, because I didn't want to know what's wrong with her. After a very a long time they came out, with Rima in the wheelchair I rushed out of the car and hugged her tight. Mbarak told me that's she's okay and there's nothing wrong with her.
We returned to the shalaih and watched a movie. Half way through the movie we all dozed off, ele nayem 3al qanafa, ele nayem 3al arth, no one cared, we wanted to sleep and we did.

Next morning I woke up to find khaled awake, I felt butterflies in my tummy to make things worse, he said

Khaled: Tabeen asaweelich ryoug?
Ghalia: Umm.. 3ade kaifik
Khaled: Rou7ay ghaslay wayhich w ana al7een asawelena ryoug

A7, ba6ne gam y3awerne, bas good pain. I love him. No denying it. A7EBA.

Faj2a wela the door swings open, refa3na rasna wela Khaled (Rima's brother, tall, skinny, sexy smile, sweet, romantic')

Ghalia's thoughts: OMG OMG OMG OMG!! MIN 9IJA! UMBAIH SHASAWWEEEEE

Ghalia: Hii..
Rima: Shyaybik yalchalb-.-?
Khaled: Hahaha yay I check on my little sister, may9eer?
Rima: La3adee!!
Mbarak: Halla wallah eb BuWaleed!
Khaled: Halla feek!
Mbarak: 7ayak, eg3ad ma3ana! Elrabe3 beyoun ba3ad shway
Khaled: Allah y7ayeek, enshallah

*Mbarak cutting off khaled's thoughts*
Mbarak: Khaloud
Khaled: Halla?!
Mbarak: Emsh enazel eljetat
Khaled: Yallah okay bas abadel
Mbarak: Enzain ana na6rik bara

Ghalia: Abe JETTTTTT:(
Mbarak: Ok, lebsay w ta3alay:D

Mbarak: Halla:p
Ghalia: Ana jet w Rima jet w ent jet w Khaled jet 9a7:D?
Mbarak: 9a7ain, yallah rou7ay lebsay
Ghalia: Ok

Ghalia and Rima both put on a tankini top and A&F shorts, and crocs

Nezalna ta7at wela enshouf the guys ynazloun eljets, I got excited and started running then..


*PLOP*
FACEPLANT!! FASHLAAAAAAAA!!

Khaled, Mbarak, Rima all come rushing to me

I got up, and I had a face covered with sand

Mbarak: AAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Then Rima joined then Khaled joined then I joined
The only reason I laughed is because I was embarrassed bas I really wanted to cry, gemt I dusted my legs, top, and.. My FACE.

We all got on the jet and started speeding, except Rima, she was left behind, I turned around wela Rima mu mwjouda! Her jet mwjoud bas elbnaya mu mwjouda!!
I yell

Ghalia: KHALED!! MBARAAAK!!

No answer..

So I went back on my own, I looked for her, wela I notice her UNDERWATER

Ghalia: UMBAIH RIMA!!

So I dived in, pulled her up, pushed her on the jet, went back to the shore, lay her down on the sand, and swam back and brought her jet, I sat by her side because she was unconcious and for a second a thought hit me

I don't wanna lose my best friend, not this way. She's the only person on this Earth that understands me so well, mabe akhserha, I'm not ready. Rima for the love of God, tekfa goumay, don't do this to me

My eyes started to tear up, and I broke down.
I didn't know what to do, but cry silently. On the shore watching the sun, next to my unconcious best friend, crying. Crying my eyes out, they started to burn. What if I didn't see her? What if she died? Kela bsebete?

Guilt took over my soul, my mind, and my heart.
I don't want her to leave.
I'm simply not ready yet, I never was, I never will be.
Rima please don't leave me alone.
