Nothing Is As It Seems 15

Part 15

Finally working hours where done and everyone were on their way home. The 2 ladies met on the way to their cars. 

Fatima: you look terrible

Shaikha: thank you, as do you

Fatima: so whats wrong?

Shaikha: what do you mean?

Fatima: really?? you are going to play that card? for many years ive known you I know when something is up

Shaikha: its nothing, just alya got engaged, and she said yes and the melcha is soon, so we might as well prepare for the stress

When a young girl gets engaged that means that the older unmarried ones should go through humiliation from other ladies. 

Fatima: lets just go through it and it will be over before you know it, how about we go on a vacation

Shaikha: haih wallah we havent been on a vacation for quit some time, you know what lets do it, after the melcha just pick up and go, then we can come back after and deal with more wedding stress

Fatima: true to dat

The girls made plans on going on vacation, everyone needs a vacation. But will it be what they needed? Just live on and hope for the best.

The next day...

Shaikha woke up to the sound of laughter and excitement that is when she knew that it was both her mother and her sister's voices that was filling the house.

Mom: 9abaa7 el5air

Shaikha: 9abaa7 elnoor, laish wa3yeen mn wakt?

Mom: intii eli nasha meta5er esa3a 10 a7een

Shaikha: ohh

Alya: wake up you have to help me with all this wedding stuff

Shaikha: now, its too early for that, and besides you have the whole summer to think about it

Alya: that is why iIneed you to help with all this

Shaikha: fine

There is goes her summer plans canceled without even mentioning them, there was no hope. Its while it lasted. The rest of the day shaikha spent looking into wedding magazines. When she needed a work emergency the most it never came...

The next day was no exception for any of them. Shaikha was early as usual and 7sain was sleeping it off somewhere. Shaikha was looking into some accounting papers when  when someone knocked the door disturbing her focus. It was one of the companies drivers with some papers in his hand

Shaikha: yes kumaar?

Kumar: miss shaikha here are the tickets, with the receipt

Shaikha: what tickets?

Kumar: mr. 7sain told me to get them from the airport booking area, for 3 of you

Shiaikha: 3 of us?

Kumar: you, mr. 7sian and mr.bader

Shaikha: ok thank you

Shaikha: 'tickets? what tickets is he talking about?'

She checked them and it turned out that they would be leaving tomorrow to london. Without even informing her he went and booked her a ticket. She wasn't even aware of this arrangement. She tried calling 7sain but there was no answer. So she decided to go to his house and ask him for herself. On her way out she bumped into bader holding a bunch of blue prints

Shaikha: kalamt 7sain elyoom?

Bader: la, a5er mara kalamt'h kaan ams, o 3an el safra bacher

Shaikha: 6aa3 int'h ana ma5abarnii 7ata!

Bader: madrii wallah, galii enna lazm enseer, 3ashan elinvestments

Shaikha: when you see fatima, tell her that ill talk to her when I get back

And then she dashed off with her car keys in her hand. She drove to his house and then opened the door letting herself in. She assumed he would be in bed. Secretly hoping not   to walk in on him in one of his "wild nights". Since she already have done that a couple of times. She went upstairs and saw him in his pants and shirt but not yet buttoned. 

7sain: enzain 5aleenii albas awal

Shaikha: Ive seen better!

7sain: laish em3a9ba

Shaikha: why did you buy a ticket for me too? you didnt even ask me if I can go

7sain: you have nothing to do, and besides it was last minute

Shaikha: but I have something, alya wants me here

7sain: its too late to cancel I already bought it, we will be back in 2 weeks

Shaikha: 2 weeks? why that long?

7sain: bs chii, tara ymkn en6awel! you said you wanted to go on a vacation this is your vacation, enjoy it bring fatima too if you want

Shaikha remained quite this was her chance to change sights and go on a vacation. Besides it was a business trip right?

Back at the office...

Fatima walked to the office. She was in the mood to work. She got seated in front of the computer and found a note. 

You have to fix the setting so it wont restart, call me if you want the procedure, you have my number

Fatima: uff now I have to call

She text-ed instead telling him to tell her the procedure, it was better that way. Part of her wanted to call but she chickened out. She just couldnt bring herself to do it.

To bader:

Just text it to me

A few seconds later her phone was ringing and it was bader calling...
