Chapter Twelve

Rawan looks back to find her aunt looking at her with an angry look on her face.

Rawan: uhhhh.. hathy rifeejty

Aunt: w hatha wagta tkalmeen rifeejtech?

Rawan: laa bas ihya daga tit6aman 3ala mama

Rawan: yalah 7abeebty lulu tslmeen, akalmech later, bye

Rawan then bbm's 3aziz.

Rawanii:

3aziz AlX:

Rawan felt safe which Aziz and that no one could ever touch her or harm her when he was there. She knew he was the one for her.

-

Aunt: ha banat kalamtaw ubookum wela akalma ana?

Rana: la2 ma kalamna wela binkalma oo ma7ad ygoola please

Rana: 9aa7 kalam Rawan, khalty please manabeeh y3aref, laii ti'thakar in a 3enda 3yal w murt bydig yes2al

At that moment the girls hated their father more than anything, they blamed him for everything that happened to their mother. Their aunt felt bad for them, they should love their father and have him around all the time but they never had that, and deep down she knew the girls were right so she didn't argue with them.

-

10 minutes later the doctor come out of the room and walks towards them.

They all got up as fast as they can and walked towards him.

Rana: basher doctor? umy shfeeha, zaina?

Doctor: il7emdilah umkum ma feeha shay bas men kether ilta3ab w ilthagh6 t3ibat w 6a7at 3alaikum 

Rana: akeed doctor?

Doctor: akeed, intaw ti6aminaw

Rawan: inzain doctor negdar inshoofha?

Doctor: ee tigdroon bas mu al7een la2inha nayma

Aunt: ma tga9er doctor, allah ybashrek bel khair 6amantna

Doctor: il3afuu

-

The girl's aunt dropped them home. And after checking on Awrad their baby sister the girls went up and sat on the balcony.

Rawan was bbm-ing Aziz.

Rawanii:

Rawan's heart literally skipped a beat, hatha mu men 9ija 9a7? ya3ne shlon? ma y7ibny? ga3ed ygi6ly naghzat?

...

Chapter Eleven

Rawan: what did yo do now?

Rana: I was mean to Rashed lana galech

Rawan: uhwa mala sheghl, 7aram 3alaich

Rana: adree, shasawy?

Rawan: rou7ay digay 3alaih w ratheeh

Rana: okay

-

Rana went to their room to call Rashed.

Rashed: alo

Rana: wallah Rashed 7abeeby I'm so sorry oo I know iny ghela6t eb 7agek please same7ny. I was very frustrated oo ma 3eraft shasawy with Rawan oo ana asfa iny 6ala3t 7arety feek

Rashed: ma 3alaih 7a9al khair 7abeebty, bas la ten3aad

Rashed could never stay mad at Rana. He loved her too much.

Rana: I promise you ma ten3aad

Rashed: a7ibech walah

Rana heard her baby sister crying.

Rana: umm.. 7abeeby shway oo akalmek ikhty ilzgheera ga3da tabchy madre shfeeha

Rashed: oo wain umech?

Rana: t9adeg madre, khalny aroo7 ashoof

Rashed: okay 7abeebty w kalmeeny bbm

Rana: inshallah, bye

-

Rana knocked the door and no one answered, all she could hear was her sister crying.

Rana: haw wain mama?

She opened the door and she didn't believe what she saw. Her mother was laying motionless on the floor next to the bed and her sister was in her crib crying.

Rana: MAMAA!!!!!!

Rana ran towards her mum and fell on the floor right next to her. She picked her head up and put it on her lap.

Rana: mama.. mama 7abeebty goomay.. yala mama

Rana's tears were falling onto her mother's cheeks . She couldn't believe her mother was lying like that on the floor she thought it was some kind of joke, a prank there mother was trying to pull on them.

Rana: haha mama mu men 9ijich 9a7? intay ga3da tg9een 3alay? yala bes khara3teeny 3an il dala3 goumay

Rana kept lying to herself and telling herself that her mother was okay.

Rawan heard the scream and ran upstairs to follow the voice only to find the same scene that Rana found.

-

The next thing the girls knew they were outside the operating room in AlHadi hospital with their aunt waiting for the doctors to come out and tell them what was wrong with their mother.

The girls sat there with hot tears escaping their almond shaped eyes and burning their way down their faces and necks. They were both holding hands as if afraid to loose each other, as if they were the only thing they had left.

The girls were still in shock. They couldn't get past the image of their strong mother lying like that on the floor. That wasn't the woman they knew and loved for so long. She looked pale and lifeless. Unlike the strong woman they were used to seeing, the woman that managed to raise two beautiful girls and give birth to a lovely baby. It wasn't the woman that ran and took responsibility of a huge house by herself without the help of her husband that was always away. 

Suddenly the girls' fear and sadness turned into hate. Hate and anger towards their father that left their mother do all that by herself which resulted in her being in the operating room between life and death. 

-

Rawan suddenly spotted a familiar figure between her tears. She rubbed her eyes to try to see clearer. He was tall, very tall, he had short pitch black hair that was messy as if he just got out of bed w malah khulg. He had piercing light brown eyes that were surrounded with beautiful long lashes. He was wearing white hollister sweatpants and a yellow t-shirt. Yes, it was Aziz.

Rawan squeezed Rana's hand and Rana followed Rawan's eyes to see Aziz standing at the end of the hall way.

Rawan and Aziz's eyes met. At that moment she felt safe. She felt like she wanted to run and fall into his arms and cry herself to death. 

Rawan felt her blackberry vibrate against her leg. 

[Incoming Call]

Aziz

Rawan: what are you doing here?

Aziz: kheft 3alaich, I didn't want to leave you alone I always want to be here for you oo abeech tathiqeen feeny oo tit2akedain ena I'm always here. oo fee a7ad galech men gabel inch you look cute when you're crying? you look like an angle and I hate to see an angel cry. umich inshalah mafeeha ila il 3afyah intay bas id3eelaha allah ygawemha bel salamah

Rawan: *sniff* thank you, wallah it means a lot to me *sniff* thank you wayed oo ameen 

Aziz: ushh ma baina thank you, yalah ana al7een akhaleech bas I'm staying here many met7arek men mukany whenever you need anything just call

Before Rawan could answer him a familiar voice interrupted.

....: Rawan? menu t7acheen?

Chapter Ten

Rawanii:

-Rashed AlX:
Rawaan laa tista3bi6ain akeed Rana galatlich shay!! Ya3ne how did she feel when we held hands or when she heard the song?


Rawanii:
What song?


-Rashed AlX:
Elly smi3at'ha in the car


Rawanii:
Huh??:s I'm not following what you're saying Rashed..


Rawan was beyond confused. 
"What did he mean? Did Rana go out with him? Did she get into his car? Why didn't she tell me? Why was she hiding it? Did they do anything wrong? La la ikhty mu chthy."


Rana: haa ikhty il7ilwa ib shenu sar7ana?


Rawan was thinking deeply and didn't hear Rana come into the room.


Rawan: wain kentay?


Rana: bel jam3eya, w yibtlich ily tabeena. shfeech embawza?


Rawan threw her phone at Rana.
Rawan: igraay w tshofeen laish embawza 3ala goltech


Rana caught the phone with her trembling fingers and read the chat between Rawan and Rashed. 


She turned around to try to explain what happened but Rawan left the room.


The only thing Rana could think of was to call Rashed. So she picked up her blackberry.


[Outgoing Call]
Rashood;*

Rashed: hala bel zain


Rana: what did you do?


Rashed: Rana shfeech?


Rana: laish gelt 7ag Rawan? dayman lazem tkhareb klshy Rashed!!!


Rashed: Rana it was a mistake ana shdaraney ina intay ma gilteelaha? calm down 7abeebty


Rana: bye Rashed bye


Rashed: Rana!!


-6oo6-


And she closed the line.


She knew what she did was wrong but she was angry at herself and she needed to take the anger out on someone.


-


Rana walked into the living room and found Rawan watching pretty little liars.


Rana: e7m..


Rawan ignored her and kept watching.


Rana: Rawan?..


Rawan: shtabeen? I left the room for a reason, mabe akalmech


Rana: Rawan wallah you have every right to be mad at me oo wallah I'm so sorry bas I didn't tell you lany kheft a6ee7 men 3ainich. kheft tfakreen shay ghala6 bas wallah ana weyah ma sawainah shay he just held my hand thats it

Rana jumped on top of her sister and gave her the biggest bear hug ever.


Rana: WALLAH ENICH JAMEELA W A7LA EKHIT BEL DENYA A7IBICH


Rawan: haha wakhray 3any yal thgeela


Rana: allah ysam7ech


Rawan: bas yalah ush ge3day lets continue the episode 


Rana: okaay


Thats how the girls' relationship was, they had huge fights a lot and get mad at each other but thats only because they cared. And each time they would make up easily.


-


Rana sat down next to Rawan and took her blackberry out to talk to Rashed like she always does.


Ranooya:
7abeeby?


-Rashed AlX:
Na3am?


"Huh shfee hatha laish e7acheeny chthy? OHH 9A7! 7abeeby 7aram I was really mean to him a while ago." Rana thought.


Rana: Rawan.. ana sawait shay wayed ghaby...
