Dalal: o el movie?

Nayla: La mali 5elg ana a3arf thog Salman kela thab7 o dam o loo3at chabd

Dalal: Enzain kaifech

Dalal gave Nayla a huge kiss on her cheek and left her room

Nayla set herself ready to sleep. She had a habit of opening her curtain just a bit to look at the moon before she closes her eyes but today was too cloudy, the moon was nowhere to be seen. She closed her eyes remembering Hamad and what he said at her grandmother’s house. She thought to herself..  What does he want from me? I don’t want him anymore. It was a mistake falling for him.

---------------------------------------------------------------

Nayla was in a dark room. She can hear him calling for her from far. She ran everywhere looking for him. She suddenly saw him. She ran towards him. She hugged him and he disappeared. She looked to her right. There he was, standing and calling for her again. She ran even faster this time. She dropped to her knees crying. But something seemed to pull him away. It looked like he was a knight at a chess game. Something was moving him far away from her. She tried to shout and call him but she had no voice. She then saw herself falling in a dark hole and that’s when she woke up.

Nayla tried to catch her breath. She was sweating all over. She got up to wash her face. It was around 5 in the morning. She prayed fajer and as she finished she saw her blackberry blinking.

Nayla I miss you .. Ly meta y3ni?

Nayla ignored his text message and got ready to go to work. She put on an orange chiffon top with black pants, Golden Belt, and a golden Dior watch. She put on her bronze-sh makeup and a black shaila. She was ready to join her family for breakfast and leave for work.

Around 4 PM Nayla was leaving the building to get to her car. She had a long hectic day at work. She saw Hamad waiting for her.

Hamad: Nayla abi a7acheech

Nayla (walking away): O ana mabi a7acheek

Hamad: Mo bkaifech

He held her shoulder and turned her to face him.

Nayla (in an angry voice): Hedni malak 7ag 3ali

Hamad: Nayla 5ala9 3ad.. Makan feena shay !! sheli ‘3ayaar?

Nayla: Kel shay te’3ayar .. Ana mabeek

Hamad: Nayool please fehmeeni .. Kent mkalmach el3a9er o kena 3adeyeen .. Kalamtach belail o gelteeli latred tete9el feeni !! Shfeech? Ana shsawait? Goleeli tara teyanant abi a3arf shelsalfa !! Enty shayfa 3ali shay?

Nayla: walla 7amad eli 3ala raseh ba67a ..

Nayla: 5ala9 7amad gom 3ani ana mabeek o mo ‘3a9eb

Hamad (with an angry higher tone): Mo gayem ly matgoleenli shfeech .. 9arli thalath shhor ayeech o ara’9eech 3ala shay madri shenow ohwa

Nayla: La betgoom o tara methel ma et3arf terfa3 9otek tara ana b3d a3arf arfa3 9oty o alem elnas keleha 3alaik

Hamad: t5asain terfe3een 9otech jedam el reyayeel wela tara 8asam bellah Nayool

Nayla (Cutting him off): 8asam bellah shenow Hamad? Bet6egni? La ent wala 6ewayfek

Hamad (Surprised): chenha m9e5at !! Mn wain yat hal wa8a7a?

Nayla: Mn m3ashertek

Hamad (Letting go of her shoulder): Tadreen shlon Nayla .. Ana eli mabeech .. Al3an obo el7ub lo feeh mathalah

Nayla: Abrakha mn sa3a

They both got into their cars. Hamad was never this angry. He felt like someone just stabbed him and twisted the knife through his heart.

------------------------------------------------------------------

As Nayla drove off her phone rang

Nayla: Alo

Rashid: Beeh Nayla shfeeh 9otech? 9ay7a?

Nayla: La Rashid bs t3bana shway

Rashid: Ok bs 3ayal ly fe’9aitay abeech ‘9eroori

Nayla: Enshallah ma3a elsalama

---------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile Hamad made a phone call

Hamad: Halla Yuma .. Shlonach?

Um Hamad: Halla bwlaidy .. ana b5air ent shlonak?

Hamad: Yuma abeech ta56ebeenli ...

Previously

Dalal was getting up when she accidently hit Nayla's bag and it fell on the ground. Dalal bent down to put Nayla's things back in her bag just as Nayla came out of the bathroom with her towel wrapped around her. She wanted to try the new shower gel she bought.

Nayla: 3abali 6ela3tai :P shetsaween ta7at sereeri?

Dalal (lifting one eyebrow): Nayool .. 

She pointed at a picture that fell from Nayla's bag ..

Dalal: Hathi mo 9oorat 7amad .. Mn thee?

Hanging By a Moment - P2

Hamad sat between his aunts and grandmother having a cup of tea and a few laughs. He kept on turning and looking at Nayla which made it a bit awkward and obvious. Dalal looked at Nayla confused. Nayla smiled a fake smile and got her blackberry out trying to avoid what was going on. She bbm-ed her bestfriend Reem.

*Nayla: Reemiii .

*Nayla: hahahaha

As she was in the middle of bbming .. Hamad was leaving the house and his deep voice made her lift her head up.

Hamad: Ma3a elsalama

Her eyes caught his. He stood there for a second getting lost into her eyes. The most beautiful dark brown eyes he has ever seen. The kind of eyes he would want to wake up to every morning and kiss good night every time before he goes to sleep. She had the kind of lashes that would brush against his face while he lies in bed holding her close to him. He always wanted her to be his. He wondered why she acted this way towards him? He then shook away his thoughts as he left through the door. She quickly turned her head away to find Dalal wondering the whole time .. what the hell !!

At that same time, Um AbdulRahman got up and excused herself and her daughters to leave. Nayla was the first to leave the house to get into the car. Hamad saw her and walked towards her car. He knocked on the car window and made Nayla jump in her place. He expected her to put her window down to talk to him because that's the normal thing to do. But nooo, Nayla thought that smiling behind the door was good enough and so she smiles and turns her head away facing the steering wheel ignoring him. Hamad took of his '3etra, put it on his shoulder and sat on the car's front.

Hamad's shoulders were broad. He had a sword man nose, tanned skin color, and black wavy medium length hair. He was tall, but not too tall, just the perfect height. His eyes were big, brown and came with long lashes. They went perfectly with his smile. He had a smile that made Nayla take a second look every time she laid eyes at him.

Nayla: I don't mind driving away

Hamad: Really?

Nayla: Yes .. I'll do it

Hamad: Ok lefeeni fil fereej o redeeni .. shrayech?

Nayla put down the handbrake and placed the gear on R. Hamad jumped off the car's front and laughed hysterically.

Hamad (laughing): Maynoona enty !!

Nayla: Hamad shtabi?

Hamad: Abi akalmech

Nayla: Theres nothing to talk about

Hamad: Please Nayla ..

UmAbdulRahman and Dalal walk out of the door and interrupt Hamad. He leaves and they get into the car with Nayla.

On their drive back home, Dalal had a grin on her face thinking she solved Nayla's puzzle.

Dalal (thinking to herself): Its Hamad. She's in love with Hamad. Can't wait to go home and rub it in her face :D

Um AbdulRahman: Dalal !! Shfeech etebosemain mn mesa3a?!

Nayla: Yuma bentech mo 9a7ya .. tawech t3arfeenha?

Dalal: hahaha mafi shay .. Bs walla she7lailateh Hamad kebar 

Um AbdulRahman: ee mashallah 3alaih Rayal shayel ro7a

Dalal: ee o waseem b3d (winking at Nayla)

Um AbdulRahman's phone rang and as she answered Dalal took the opportunity to talk to Nayla.

Dalal: Nayool meta a5er mara chefnah?

Nayla: Madri .. awal mareja3 mn el jam3a mar 3ala omi o rad safar

Dalal (smirk): 3alaina Nayool ?!

Nayla: ..

Dalal (smirk): Nayool shfeech matredeen?

Nayla: Shtabeen to9leen lah?

Dalal: 5ala9 ly el bait

Nayla: La golai sh3endach o 5al9eeni?

Dalal (Laughing): Ly el bait .. latesta3yelain .. mo hadetach

They got out of the car all three to find Nayla's dad cracking jokes about his old days whereas AbdulRahman and Salman were laughing their heads off. They greeted each other and Nayla went straight away to her room to shower, get into her pjs and join the family. Dalal followed her. They both sat on Nayla's bed talking about the new collection of jewelry that was launched recently. Dalal then remembers Hamad and what she has recently discovered.

Dalal: Nayool tara ana darait ;)

Nayla: Daraitay 3n shenow?

Dalal: 3n eli ma5eth galbech

Nayla's face changed color. She tried to hide it but she couldn't. She smiled nervously and let out a nervous laugh.

Dalal: hahaha shfeech? Mabagol lat5afeen

Nayla: Mafeeni shay bs Mn eli ma5eth galbi? (Trying to hide it)

Dalal: Mn '3airah?! Tara kan wa'9e7 .. Hamad weld 5aly Mohammed.

Nayla (Confused): wa'9e7?

Dalal: Shfeekum? Met-hawsheen?

Nayla: Dalal shhal legafa o b3dain enty mat3arfeen 3an shenow ga3da tetkalemain.

Nayla walked away and entered her bathroom to take a shower.

Dalal: Yalla Nayool sar3ai nabi nag3ed ma3a Salman egol yayeb 5osh movie.

Dalal was getting up when she accidently hit Nayla's bag and it fell on the ground. Dalal bent down to put Nayla's things back in her bag just as Nayla came out of the bathroom with her towel wrapped around her. She wanted to try the new shower gel she bought.

Nayla: 3abali 6ela3tai :P shetsaween ta7at sereeri?

Dalal (lifting one eyebrow): Nayool .. 

She pointed at a picture that fell from Nayla's bag ..

Dalal: Hathi mo 9oorat 7amad .. Mn thee?

Hanging By a Moment - P1

Her head leaned against the window as she listened carefully to the rain drops outside. She loved the sound of rain. So calming. So relaxing. She closed her eyes tight remembering the days she was with him. She would smile at every memory until she remembers he’s out of the picture. She remembered their fight when she saw him talking to a girl. She was the jealous type. She remembered him putting flowers in her car to apologize that same day. She remembered the anger she felt that day and the heavenly feeling that came with flowers. She sat as she was looking outside the window reminiscing. A paper in her hand and a shirt in the other. She would smell his scent in his shirt. Doesn’t go a day without it. This time she closed her eyes even harder. Maybe just maybe she might feel his presence. A tear dropped from her eye. She could almost feel him ....

Knock Knock ...

Her brother interrupted her thoughts.

AbdulRahman:  Nayla .. Omi tabeech mn msa3a t9awet 3alaich

Nayla: yayeh 7aman .. goleha degayeg

She folded the shirt neatly and placed it in a box and as she was about to do the same with the paper she read its contents and couldn’t help herself but cry.

5 minutes later she pulls herself together and places the box at the back of her closet. Washes her face and walks out of her room.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nayla had two brothers and two sisters. AbdulRahman was the eldest. He was 26, over-protective, short tempered but caring and sweet.  Sumaya was 24, married and pregnant with her first. She was too busy with her own husband and her new life. But she was never too busy for Nayla and her brothers. Dalal was 23, loud and energetic. Salman was the youngest. He was 17. Funny but gets into a lot of trouble in school. He isn’t as protective as AbdulRahman ‘cause AdulRahman does all the work for him. But when it comes to family, he would bring out his claws. Nayla was 21. Very Calm and sweet. She was lovable and a mother to everyone.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nayla: Halla Yuma .. (Kissing her forehead)

Um 7aman: Nayool ! Wainach mn mesa3a anadeech .. malait bro7i .. e5tech fi bait-ha o 5wanech wa7ed yabi ero7 elmaylas o ana kasra 5a6rah wel thani yel3ab koora o Dalool  mn mesa3a et'3ayer thyabha o enty 9aka 3ala ro7ech .. shfeech Yuma?

Nayla: La Yuma mafi shay bs kent menba67a o 5athatni nouma .. Amry yal ‘3alia shbe’3aitay?

Um 7aman: Nabi nro7 bait yadech .. Ma marait Omi elyoum o 5alatech kelehum hnak

Nayla: Enshalla bs a’3ayer malabsi o e7na 6al3een.

Um 7aman: Goli 7g Dalal tyey weyana.

Nayla: Enshalla Yuma

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

She walked back to her room, shut the door and headed to her closet. As she was deciding on what to wear she heard a voice from the back calling her.

....   : Nayla ... 7abeebti ...

She gasped and quickly turned to see who it was. There was no one. She shook her head slightly and sighed.

Nayla: Asta’3fer Allah .. Asta’3fer Allah .. A3ooth bellah mn el shai6an

She got out a plain blue top with a pair o jeans. Applied nothing on her face. Wore her 3abaya and shaila and called out for her mom.

Her mom was in her 3abaya too but she looked at Nayla as if she was not liking what she was seeing.

Um 7aman: Nayla Yuma shee3awrech?

Nayla (Confused): Mafehamt .. su2alech mo fi ma7aleh .. Laish be3awerni shay?

Dalal : Nayla shaklech maree’9a .. banat fi senech sh7elwehum .. wenty 6al3a kana hmoom el3bad 3ala rasech !

Nayla (Laughing): y3ni tabeeni a9abe’3 fi wayhi? Kelha tara bait yadi o raj3een ..

Um 7aman: Mo 3aib elbent tkon met3adla .. ma ga3da agolach ma95eeha .. bs 7e6eelach ke7el o blusher o shwayat gloss .. ana omech el3ayoz a3arf a7san menech

Nayla: enty 3ayoooz !! enty aksha5 mn el banat !!

They giggled and drove off.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At baba 3od’s house, they were all having different conversations at the same time, cousins, aunts, and even the grandmother. Girls would know what I’m talking about. They were really loud. They didn’t notice Hamad standing by the door for 5 minutes trying to shout out the word “DARB” to walk in and greet his aunts and grandmother. He rang the bell, shouted and even tried to open the door and close it to get their attention, but no one noticed. So he called his mom on her cell and after the second missed call she noticed her phone. She asked the girls who cover to cover so he could walk in.

Um Hamad: Banat te’3a6aw. Hamad yabi edesh esalem.

Hamad walked in and greeted everyone.

Hamad: Shda3wa 9otkum wa9el ly bara3 !! 9ar ly sa3a a9awet .. Eljeeran esme3ooni wentaw masema3tooni. Shhal suwalef !!

Mama 3oda(Laughing): Lazem ete3awad ya Yuma tara el7areem kelehum chethi .. 7eta mertek betsolef methelna o en masolefat ben3alemha (Wink)

Um Hamad: Allah yesma3 menech ya rab enchofah me3res

He smiled and turned to look at Nayla with a sad look in his eyes.

..... Nayla just looked away ignoring him.
