Chapter 1

I forgot to mention Shatha's age, she was 16  when her story began. I'm not sure if anyone will find my story worth reading, but if for some unknown reason you did, yes you! don't hesitate and share this blog with your friends, family.. honestly whoever you think would be interested in reading about Shatha, just share it with them.

shall we cut to the chase?:p

okay.. here we go..


2009
      Ahmed was just dropping me at the mall's front entrance. As the car stopped..
Shatha: I'll try to be quick, I just need a few things from MAC and two other stores.
Ahmed: 3adi, take your time. I'll just park the car and then i'll go inside, call me if you need anything.
Shatha: inshallah.

      Uff inshallah ma ykoon za7ma, I picked the wrong day to go out with my naked face! ( rabana kama 5ala8tana:p). as I was heading to the escalators, I saw a guy that looked familiar, he kind of looks like Abdullah. Could it be? No way! Sure, I haven't seen him in almost a year, but that kind of transformation is nearly impossible. Not to mention how good looking this guy is! And his beard is so perfect mashallah --beards make or break a guys hotness-- wait.. is he staring at me? ( Abdullah is 19, he's a family relative min jihit abooy. I'm not sure how we're exactly related, but I always see him in Eid and on big family gatherings. he's white, pimpled, and short) Shatha, stop being a creep and just get on the damn escalator *screamed the voice inside my head*.

      After I got what I needed from MAC, I headed to Sephora. That guy really looked like Abdullah but come on, lets be realistic! That guy had no sign of acne, knowing how bad Abdullah's condition was, it would have left scars! true, that guy was not that tall, just like Abdullah... Omg Shatha! its not him, just drop it.

      Okay I think I got everything I needed. Toot toot *calling Ahmed* toot toot..
Ahmed: haa 5ala9ti?
Shatha: yeah, where are you?
Ahmad: Meet me at Starbucks
Shatha: okay see you in a few..
Good.. Starbucks is not that far, my feet are KILLING ME!!

      It looks like Ahmed is heading my way, el7amdillah sahal 3lay. Who's that guy with him.. NO! It's the guy from the escalator. 0kay. They're getting closer. Stop staring at me weirdo, he's sipping on his drink while not breaking eye contact. Okay (squinting my eye to get a better look now that he's close enough) Its Abdullah.
Ahmed: done?
Shatha: (asalem wella la2) I think so
Ahmed: you think so? Shatha, I'm not heading here again
Shatha: *giggles* okay! i'm done, I'm done. (looks at Abdullah) ahlain Abdullah, how are you doing?
Abdullah: hallah feesh, I'm good you?
Shatha: ( What happened to his voice? its so manly now. LOL) el7amdillah.. mashaina?
Ahmed: yallah

      Why is he walking with us? Maybe he's heading home too. Okay I really hope his car is parked next to us, the last thing I need is an awkward car ride.
Ahmed: Shatha, Abdullah's coming with us
Shatha: (NOO!) okay. (innocently)

      The car ride was so awkward. I wanted to die. Pretend texting was my only solution. They kept talking about guy things that I have no interest in what so ever! wa9alna elbait, he dropped me and I made it alive el7amdillah!

      A few weeks later, I had a sleepover with my cousins Noora and Hind at my house. (Noora biint 5alti was the type of person that people fell in-love instantly, she's funny, gutsy, brave, hates boys, has the most amazing voice ever, has strong opinions about anyone and everything, malgoofa, she has to know everything, she has my facebook password too, what can I say? she's very persistent, I can't say no to her. besides, it not like I have anything to hide. Hind bint 3ami, she's very sweet and quiet, easy to talk to, really smart, and very supportive!)

      We were just hanging out, giving each other home facials, eating junk, and of course entertaining ourselves with facebook ( I know:p ayaam awaal). I wasn't that attached to facebook like everyone else my age, I checked it from time to time. I logged into my account, checked my inbox, Abdullah Al x?! ha:S i opened the message quickly and read it out loud. It said: "For the sake of your father, and for the sake of your brothers, I advise you to delete all the guys on your list."

Noora: na3am na3am na3am?! mino hatha ely ma yista7 3la waiha?
Shatha: hatha allah ysalmish.. and I told them who he is
Hind: ooh hatha Abdullah walad 3ami X
Noora: inzian shyabi? you only have those guys on your list as friends
Hind: inzain he didn't say anything to me
Shatha: I saw him 2 weeks ago and..
Noora: *laughs* so he saw you? fell in love with your natural beauty, and decided to stalk you on facebook, not creepy at all my darling shatha! *laughs again*
Shatha: Shda5al Noora, Hind please talk some sense to our insane friend
Hind: I'm actually with Noora on this one. I mean, why else would he advise you and only you? he defiantly has a crush on you *burst into laughter with Noora*
Shatha: *angry* shda5al what's his problem? he's one to talk, look at his list nu9hum banat
Hind: aywa bes he's in a mixed school, w la tinsi shatha, they just moved back from America a few years ago, aish titwa83i mino?
Noora: ooh ya3ni he's playing the " we're just friends card" awena munfati7.. 3ishtaw
Shatha: (angry) laish ykalamni bhal isloob, 7asasni I'm a slut. 7alal 3laik 7arram 3laina?! I'm calling Sara! ( Sara bint 3ami, so, Hind, Sara and I are cousins, w Noora is my cousin min jihit umi. Sara is close with Abdullah so akeed ti8dar twa9il kalami)
Hind: Shatha, look at the time, she's probably sleeping!
Noora: la2! call call!
Shatha: * Calling sara*
Sara: hmmm * sleepy voice*
Shatha: naima?
Sara: What do you want?
Shatha: sim3i aish sawa Abdullah! ( I told her everything)
Sara: inzain wl ma6loob?
Shatha: wa9li kalami 7arf 7arf
Sara: ...
Shatha: awal shay ya istath Abdullah, what I do is none of your business, so no thanks, I don't need your advice. Thani shay, if you must know, hathi ma sawalfi and how dare you speak to me that way! Don't ever speak to me again. So take your little "advice" shove it down your throat, stop being a hypocrite, follow your own advice instead of judging others.




haa? what do you guys think?:p
give me feed back! and stay tuned my darlings:*
