Can we just be us? Part 55

Part 55

It’s been two weeks and a half since Meera’s encounter with Jawaher. As for hamad, he was distant and so was Meera. She hated how awkward it got right before they went to sleep. They talked like they were estranged roommates. It felt like the beginning of her marriage only more awkward.

She had mix feelings about sarah's request for a party. She didn't want to do it because she knew how demanding her sister can be. And to host it in her house wasn't going to help her with stress. But it was going to help keep her mind busy.

Sarah: but I need the pool

She said nagging into the phone

Meera: can't you have a normal 'dry' party for once

Sarah: come on you agreed to this, and I already told my friend that there will be a pool

Meera: fine

Sarah: oh and about the cake

Meera: i know, i know, it's going to be here by 6 

And Sarah went on and on about the party making meera slowly regret saying yes.

Hamad: how is everything going? 

He said entering the bedroom right after meera ended her call with sara

She had a murderous look on her face, because she was about to kill her own little sister.

Meera: remind me, why did i agree to this?

He held her shoulders with both hands and started to slightly give it a squeeze. 

Hamad: they got my wife all tense

She forgot how his touch felt like, how it made everything else seem like nothing, how it made all problems disappear. Getting into all of this planning was a stunt to get her mind of things. All it achieved was drive her insane. 

Hamad in the other side wanted touch her, she was his wife. Jawaher re-entering his life ruined everything. He despised how much control she had over his mind. All the words of Saif started to come back to him and he wanted it all out of his head. 

He took one step closer and His hands traveled down her back and inside of her shirt to unhook her bra leaving her braless and free. She removed the straps and threw the bra on the ground still giving him her back.

Hamad: better? 

Meera: much

She raised both her hands and grabbed onto his hair while he had his face on her shoulders blowing down her neck. He moved his hands down to her rear and onto the front going up towards the beginning of her skirt. 

Slowly jawaher’s face crept into meera's head and she couldn’t stop thinking about it. It caught her off guard. She hated how weak her mind was.

Her phone rang interrupting them making her pull away immediately.

She grabbed her phone to answer it leaving hamad standing looking at the floor not knowing what just happened.

…

Saif: do you have to wear that dress?

Hessa: there is nothing wrong with my dress now would you just park the car old man so we can enter the party 

Saif: oh now I'm a jealous old man

Hessa: don't act cute when I'm mad at you

He just sighed 

Saif: I can't tell you baby, it's not my place

Hessa: fine then

She pulled her bra upwards slightly revealing cleavage

Saif: you’re dressed like that just to get to me, then it's not working 

Hessa: really 

She got out of the car and he followed

Saif: baby come on, there will he plenty of horny teenage guys there

Insisting she puts on a coat 

Hessa: then all those horny teenage guys will have their eyes on your hot girlfriend 

She knew exactly how to hit a nerve

She started to walk away when she was stopped by Saif gripping her hand. He pulled her close so they were face to face 

Saif: your mine, and only mine 

She was already biting her lip, and he was smirking knowing he got her hot and bothered. He leaned towards her ear between her hair and said

Saif: now  get your hot ass inside the house, they are waiting

He eyed the car for a second wishing he could go home and take her, hard.

...

Aisha: huba huba

Meera: you look hot, let me guess trying to prove something to Saif 

Aisha: those two

She said shaking her head

Hessa: look at him mingle as if nothing is happening 

Aisha: would you let it go

Hessa: he is pretending that nothing is happening, as if he is okay with all this 

There were a bunch of guys staring right at her and an few had already tried to ask her out, even if she was a little to old for them.

Aisha: what is it now

She said sounding almost rehearsed, she was always the referee between those two 

Hessa: he is hiding something from me

Aisha: so?

Hessa: we are not suppose to hide anything from each other, and it's been a couple of days now, I know it's been bothering him, but he isn't talking to me about it

Meera: it's about jawaher

They both looked at meera confused

Aisha: hamad's ex-girlfriend jawaher?

She sounded confused

Hessa: what the hell does it have to do with her?

Meera: she got divorced and now she's back

Hessa: back as in what?

Meera: she is designing my offices

Aisha: what? Why? Can't you hire someone else? 

Hessa: what the hell is going on meera?

Meera: listen I have to go check on a few things, we will sit down and talk about this I promise

She said before disappearing. She didn't know what to say to her friends. And what happened earlier with hamad only confused everything. He wasn't saying anything and it pissed her off.  It only made her wonder what he thought. 

...

The guests were starting to leave and meera couldn't be happier. She was glad to see her sister happy and enjoying herself but boy was it hectic. The staff of the catering gig Meera hired was cleaning up and getting ready to leave followed by meera's family. Then it was only her and hamad.

Hamad: some party ha

Meera: teenagers, I forgot how exhausting it was to be one

She said making him laugh

She missed his laugh

Meera: thanks for agreeing to this

Hamad: I told you, it's your house too

He was being so nice it only reminded her of how things were before and it pissed her off

Meera: about earlier, it was a moment of weakness 

Hamad only looked at her

Meera: we did agree on a business marriage right?

Hamad: yes, moment of weakness won't happen  again 

Meera didn't understand why she felt disappointed 

Meera: since sara doesn't live here anymore it's about time I went back to my own room

Hamad: want some help?

Meera: it's ok

She got a few of her stuff and walked towards her room. She decided to take her other things later when Hamad wasn't in the house to make it less awkward.
