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.
