Chapter 27

“ikhty il 9bay kan  ib hosha o 7ashta kadamat 8awya o tamazo8 ib 3a’6alat il reel il ysar bes inshalla ra7 yt7asan..ohwa mo’3ma 3alay il7een o 7a6eena 3ndna bes la t7ateen 7alita ga3da tist8r.” Explained the guy on the other side of the line calmly.

“Shno?            !Hosha?!” Layals stomach went into a million nots , it was exactly what she dreaded.

“Ikhty haday haday kan fee sh.hood 3ala ily 9ar shafo moo ohwa ily bida ma ra7 tkoon 3alay mashakl la tkhafeen.” He explained trying to calm her down.

Layal took a deep breath and bit her lip,”khala9 ana yaya il7een..”

Layal hung up and called Dana.

“Alo?” Dana answered.

“Alo dana tgdreen twa9leeny il mostashfa?” Layal asked.

“Shfeech?” Dana got worried.

“Mafeeny shey..bes ta3alay o ashra7lch bl 6reej.” Layal replied.

“khala9 khala9 okay klha khams dgayg o ana 3ndch.” Dana said and hung up

30 minutes later,

Layal and Dana got to the hospital. The strong scent of the hospital brought up suppressed memories of when Layal became disabled. She felt helpless at the time and she always needed help from someone. She hated it, she hated the memories of pain it brought back to her. This time it was different, she thought to herself. This time someone needed her.

Dana went up to the help desk,” Law sama7 shno ra8am dar Sager Al Flany?”

“322..” replied the man at the help desk.
“Mashkoor…” Dana replied.

Layal and Dana got into the elevator.

“Adry athaytch wyay…” Layal replied.

“La come on what are friends for.” Dana smiled at Layal.

Layal gave a slight smile and watched the elevator door open.

Layal got out and glanced around, her eye picked up a familiar face.

It was Mishary with Sagers Father coming out of Sagers room.

Dana quickly pushed Layals wheelchair to the side and they hid behind a column until they both left.

Layal then rolled over to Sagers room and the nurse was just coming out.

“Sorry visiting hours are over..” the nurse announced dryly, while holding the door open clear enough for Layal to see Sager inside.

Layal wanted to push her out of the way and get in.

“E-excuse me…let her in..” Said Sager, sounding tired.

“But sir the-“ The nurse was cut off by sager.

“5 minutes just let her in.” Sager snapped but he still sounded worn out.

The nurse sighed and moved to the side letting layal in, then she slowly closed the door.

Layal quickly rolled over to his bed and looked at him, tears started filling up her eyes.

“Walla mafeeny shey la tabcheen dam3tch ‘3alya tara..” Sager smiled weakly.

“Shno mafeek shey?!” Layal rubbed her tears that were rolling down an this point.

“shofay ha ha ka mafeeny shey! ” Sager tried to pull himself up but he was clearly in pain.

He groaned then flopped back down.

“Laish ga9ayt 3alay moo wa3adtny mnt imsawy shey!” Layal exclaimed.

“Wfayt ib wa3dy…6ala3t wala kalamta ohwa la7agny bl ma9af6 o gam eg6 kalam mala da3y agoola…tmada wayd bes skat 3ana 3alashanch law moo ‘3alatch 3ndy chan ana dafna mn lama dash ilmokan…shaf mako fayda ya 6agny ma gdart askt mny o 9ar ily 9ar…” Sager explained.

Layal bit her lip and stared at him.

“Lay hel daraja khayfa 3alay?” Sager smirked.

Layal smiled and looked away then she looked at him, “Inta ma tn3a6a wayh. “

“mn zeen wayhch 3ad glbee a7san.” Sager teased her.

“waaaay 3adal 3ad!” Layal replied.

The nurse knocked the door, “ma’am you should leave now…”

“7greeha 7greeha …t9adgeen 3ad...9ij ina jsmy kla e3awrny o ta3ban lakn shoftch trd il roo7..” Sager smiled at her.

“ma’aaaaam” The nurse called out again.

“inzain inzain lajayteena ma’am o ma’am!” Sager replied, he turned to Layal and smiled.

Layal smiled back, “t9ba7 3ala khair.”

“Wintay mn ahla..” Sager replied and watched Layal as she got out of the room.

Sager glared at Jassims friend and clutched his fist, he grabbed his phone and texted Layal.

Layal and Dana left starbucks a minute later.

Dana helped Layal get in the car, then she got in herself.

“Goleely sh9ar?” Dana asked.

“Shno?” Layal asked.

“sager…” Dana replied.

“Shfee?” Layal answered.

“Layal come on its obvious….shsalfta?” Dana asked.

Layal bit her lip trying to hide her smile.

“Ah fahamna…I knew it walla! “ Dana squeeled.

“Shno?” Layal replied.

“Cute walla.” Dana replied.

Layal smiled and turned her face towards the window.

-----
Dana dropped Layal off at her house and left.

Layal called Sager but he didn’t reply, she started to get worried.

She called an hour later but he still didn’t reply, she checked his last seen on whats app and it was over an hour ago.

Layal got even more worried and called dana.

“Alo?” Dana picked up.

“Alo Dana intey b bait?” Layal asked sounding worried.

“ee laish shfeech?!” Dana replied.

“Shofay sayarat Sager bara bait.hom?”

“La moo mawjooda…laish Layal shsalfa?”Dana was looking out her window and checking their neighbors house which is where sager lives.

“Walay la ekoon sawaha hel maynoon!” Layal replied.

“Shfeech Layal?” Dana replied.

“tathkreen rfeej Jassim ily Sager tahawash way akhaf sager sawala shey” Layal answered.

“La la ma atwa8a3..tabeen adg 3alaich itha shft sayarta?” Dana answered.

“Ee please..” Layal replied.

“okay 3ayal adg 3alaich itha shfta” Dana replied.

“Yalla ok bye.” Layal hung up.

She felt terrible , her stomach started to hurt and she felt sick because she was really worried.

30 minutes Layal called again and this time the line got picked up.

“Alo il salam 3alaykom…ikhty intey mno?” Asked a strange voice.
“Ana? Int mno?” Layal was confused and scared.

“Ana mn ilmostashfa tgrbeen 7ag Sager al flany?” Asked the person on the other line.

“uh ee ee agrbla..Shfee fee shey?!” Layal was worried.

Chapter 25

Layal changed and went to the living room where Dana and Sarah were.

“Banat lazm amshy.” Sarah said looking at her phone.

“Haw laish?” Dana asked.

“Omy tgool i7na ma3zomeen 3ala ‘3ada ib bait madry mno o lazm aroo7.” Sarah explained.

“wee..khala9 tyeenlna 3gob? I7na mtaf8een way modars ilyom 7ag il test” Layal asked.

“ee inshalla itha gdart adg 3alaykom.” Sarah replied as she got up and headed out of the house.

---------

 At Misharys house:-

“Yoma ana mashy tabeen shey?” Mishary asked.

“Mishary 7abeeby ilyom i7na 3azmeen nas.” Misharys mother replied.

“Inzain?” he answered her in a way saying what do I have to do with it.

“tathkr ahal mrt okhok allah yr7amha?” Misharys mother asked.

“ee athkrhom.” Mishary remembered Sarah and smiled.

“ee byoon fa laish ma tg3ad wyana 3ala8al 3ala il ‘3ada.” his mother suggested.

“Ee bag3ad yoma wala ehmch.” Mishary placed his car keys on the coffee table and sat back down.

An hour later.

Sarah and her parents rang the doorbell and waited for someone to open the door.

To Sarahs surprise Mishary was the one who opened the door.

“Ilsalam 3alaykom, mishary?” Asked Sarahs father.

“wa3alaykom il salam ee 3amy ana mishary, shlonk shakhbark?” Miashry asked with a smile as he eyed Sarah who was standing behind her parents.

“wala il7mdla. Int shlonik?” Sarahs father replied.

"il7mdla bkhair dam int bkhair." Mishary replied.

“Wala kbart o 9rt rayal smla 3alaik!” Sarahs mother smiled.

Mishary smiled, “tfa’6law” he moved to the side.

Sarahs mother nudged Sarah to say hello as they walked in.

Sarah jumped a bit,” halla mishary.”

“halla feech.” He smiled at her.

They all got in the house and everyone greeted one another and sat down the parents were all catching up on one another mishary smiled at sarah, he was sitting close by.

“shlonich?” he asked.

“il7mdla” She answered.

Mishary and Sarah started talking about their majors, some random topics, and started catching up on one another.

Whatsapp:

Layal: Sorry im busy

Lujain: Bes ma glt ay yom

Layal: im very busy lately.

Lujain: ah okay itha f’6aytay goleely

Layal ignored her, she was confused on why Lujain suddenly talked to her after ignoring her existence for so long she wasn’t confortable with that but she decided to just ignore her and stay away from her.

----------------

A few hours later:

Dana and Layal were on their way to starbucks to meet up with their tutor, Layal eyed a familiar car in the parking. Not just any car it was Sagers car.

Dana helped Layal get into her wheelchair and into starbucks.

Sager took a quick glance at Layal then looked back down trying to hide his smile.

During the review session with the tutor Layal couldn’t help but keep glancing back at Sager.

Dana noticed what was going on, and as soon as the tutor left she scooted over closer to Layal,”Shsalfa?”

Layal gulped, “shno?”

Dana raised her eyebrows,” tkhsheen 3any?”

“7asha bes ma fahamt 3alaich.” Layal replied.

“Sager…shsalfta?” Said Dana.

Just then Jassims friend that was with Jassim the day of the fight walked in.

"Layal hatha rfeej jassim ily tahawash wya sager." Dana whispered to Layal.

Layal quickly glanced at him and then back at Sager who seemed to look very tense at this point,
