Normal? 33

PART 33

The next day arwa went to all her classes but paying attention to other things, she was looking around hoping to find this mystery guy or anything of the sort.

She went out of her class and spotted fahad sitting on a bench with his sunglasses looking as hot as ever

Arwa: waiting for someone?

Fahad: actually I just got what I waited for

Arwa had this confused look on her face she couldn’t understand what fahad meant. So she just let it go and started talking about random things

Fahad: so did you get that perfect red rose?

Arwa: matter of fact I did get a red rose, and its killing me, I want to know who it is from. You’re a guy, I want a guy’s perspective

Fahad: thank for noticing that (he said in a sarcastic tone)

Arwa: come on, what do you think this means? A rose on my car with a white car but no signature

Fahad: its part of the mystery, isnt it better to build the mytery first then show up

Arwa: yeah but its killing me, I wonder who this person is

Fahad: you might be surprised to see how your charm affects people; I gotta 

go see ya around

Sometimes arwa just didn’t get fahad. You might describe arwa as naive when it comes to romantic things. She wants to find her knight and shining armor.

Later that day...

Ghaya walked to uni feeling a little bit different. She couldn’t lay her finger into it but she felt it. And she just knew it. She sat beside arwa and mahra.

Ghaya: what is wrong with you? (she asked mahra)

Arwa: don’t get me started, she has been like that the whole day, she is pms-ing

Ghaya: ohh, you look terrible, im just glad this never happens to me when I get my period

That is when it hit her, she was late this month. 4 days late and she was never late.

Ghaya: just remembered I gotta go do something for class, catch up with you girls later

Ghaya rushed off and got into her car. She wanted to call mayed so bad but she didn’t want to freak him out over something she wasn’t even sure of. She got into the drug store and grabbed a box of pregnancy tests. She noticed an old lady in her 50’s shaking her head in disgrace.  Ghaya was annoyed who the hell does she think she is?

Ghaya: don’t worry im a married woman (she wiggeled her ring finger and walked away)

Walking to the cashier all she thought about was what she would do if the pregnancy was a positive sign.  After paying she walked to her car clutching into the paper bag. Her breaths were getting narrower by the minute. Finally she reached home, and sat on the bed for what seems centuries while only 45 minutes has passed. Taking her time whether to take the test or just ignore this whole thing, she hoped that this would be just a dream. Part of her wanted to drift into a long lost world and just pretent not to face this. But after all she had to just come to terms with it. That is what you get for having unprotected sex. They only tried not using a condom once and this is what happens. Without noticing it her body just got up and walked to the bathroom with the pregnancy test in her hand.

2 L O N G minutes later she got her answer. The result staring right back at her.  She didn’t know what to do, say or think. She held the preganancy test in her hand and sat on a chair near the entrance of their apartment. She sat there like a statue without any movement or action. She got lost in her thoughts, in her own world.

Mayed parked the car and walked towards a familiar building. A building where he always entred smiling. Coming back to his wife always made him smile. He was finaly done with his project so he could spend as much time as he wanted with ghaya.

Mayed: esalam 3alaikum

He saw ghaya sitting on a chair lost in her thoughts.  A facial expression on ghaya’s face that mayed couldn’t quite figure out yet.

Mayed: ghaya balaach?

He dropped his things and rushed to where she was sitting. Ghaya opened her palm revealing a preganacy stick with a RED positive sign on it.
