Nothing Is As It Seems 34

This is going to be the last post for 2012, enjoy it and happy new years :D

Part 34

Bader: 5aleena nid5al awal (he held her hand and led her inside)

Fatima: I have to go back to hind, rosa's shift is over

Bader: bachoofch bacher

Fatima: I'm all yours

Bader: yes you are (he had a smirk on)

Fatima laughed as she walked out. Just with one word both their days were made.

Fatima drove back to her house smiling while bader went to bed smiling. He was already planning on when to go to her father and propose to her officially. It was also time to tell his parents. He knew that they would be glad since they have been annoying him about gran kids for some time now.

The next morning...

Her mornings were filled with meeting and paper signing. She made it to the meeting room to find a man in his late twenties with the company accountant.

Shaikha: esalam 3alaikum

Guy: wa3alaikum esalam

Accountant: Shaikha this is Mr. Mohammed Al X he is S company's accountant

Shaikha: Hi, I'm Shaikha the companies business partner and I follow big exchanges like this one

Mohammed: etsharafna

The meeting went by smoothly. Shaikha was good at her job and it showed.

Mohammed's point of view:

I didn't expect someone to walk in, specially not an attractive woman who knows what she is doing and looking good doing so. I never believed in love at first sight. Apparently opinions change.

...

With her car parked at the front of the building fatima was waiting for shaikha to have their usual lunch. But this time with surprising news. 

Shaikha: what is the news that you could'nt wait to tell me?

Fatima: I'm getting married (straight to the point)

Shaikha: what the fuck?

Fatima: thank you that support alright

Shaikha: sorry, seriously? married?

Fatima: bader proposed and I accepted, I love him shaikha (she sounded sincere)

Shaikha: I'm happy for you

Fatima: thank you

Shaikha's point of view:

I'm happy for her, I truly am. I want the best for her and I'm glad that she found bader and said yes to him. I just cant but feel lonely. Things would be different now that she is getting married.

Fatima: what is on your mind?

Fatima knew how Shaikha felt about weddings and marriages. She didn't want her news to upset her.

Shaikha: oh nothing just thinking about work

Fatima: you know nothing is going to change (she knew exactly how shiakha was feeling)

Shaikha: I hope not

They reached their spot and got seated to order. That was when they spotted bader with some guy. Bader got up to say hello to the ladies but specially to his lady.

Bader: esalam 3alaikm

Both ladies: wa3alaikm esalam

Bader: sh7alkm?

Fatima: el7emdillah (blush)

It was too lovey dovey for shaikha to handle watching those to flirt right in front of her.

Shaikha: so this is how you have been spending your vacation?

Bader: I came with a friend mohammed (he pointed towards the guy seated on the chair) and 7sain said he would meet us here

Shaikha: oh what a small world, I met him in the office today, he is the accountant of the S company right?

Bader: yeah, anyways ladies I have to go back to my table

Bader walked away and the ladies started their chit chats.

Fatima: he looks cute

Shaikha: he is already yours (she smiled to her)

Fatima: of course bader is cute, im speaking of his friend mohammed

Shaikha: umm didn't notice

Fatima: sure you didn't (she said sarcastically)

Shaikha: your not married yet and you are already trying to fix me up

Fatima: fine fine, I'll stop

5 minutes later 7sain appeared and took a seat

7sain: esalam 3alaikm shabaab

Both: wa3alaikm esalam

7sain: ha 7mood basher kaif kan elmeeting? kil shay tamaam

Mohammed: el7emdillah ybonii ayii mara thanya

7sain: zain zain, ay shay tibah golli

Mohammed: inshallah, t3arft 3ala shareek'k, Shaikha Al X

Bader: hathi yalsa ehnaak wiya fatima (her name was comfortable on his tongue)

7sain looked back and to see her laughing and talking. It was good to see her like that. He felt happy to see her that way. She works too much and stresses herself. He went back to his menu when he saw Mohammed glancing to the girls table as well. He noticed that he was looking at shaikha, it wouldn't be fatima since she was already spoken for and mohammed wouldn't dare to look at her with bader's presence. So that only leaves shaikha. He couldn't help but feel angry.
