"Juuuuuude!!" I wined.

"7ayati calm down!" she assured me.

"Daliaaaaaaa!!" I wined again.

"Jay, tara bayeey akfekhich ou amshi." said Dalia.

I laughed. Today, was my date with Na9er. I was facing a major fashion crises. 

"Yala Jay 7ayati, we're heading to the restaurant in an hour!" said Jude.

I looked at my watch. It was 7 already?

"Yala okay okay, I'll find a way to cancel the date.." I huffed and closed the phone.

I stared at my closet for a LONG time. Akher shai, I made up my mind and wore my favorite skinny jeans, a white polo shirt and black high heels.

I quickly straightened my hair and applied red liptick and eye liner, and was ready to go.

********

9:29pm

Restaurant.

"Yam3awdaaa ou 3ugubha khuma6t ikhtee ou in7eshna!" giggled Jude.

I laughed and said, "Wala intaw myanaan!"

"Yala, dessert?" suggested Dalia.

I nodded and said, "Eeh okay!"

Ye7laamouun, ye7lamouuun.. ely feek--

Urgh! "Aloo?" I answered.

"Ahlaan.." He said.

Someone is in a good mood. "Hala feek.. Shlounik?"

"Tamaam il7emdilah.. wentaay?" He asked.

"Bkhaiir il7emdilah.." I said. I looked at Dalia and Joory and frowned. They knew I was in no mood to see him right now.

"Ha yala wainech?" he asked.

"Emm, 6al3a weya rifeejati... Bas walah Na9er kilesh mo wagtah.."

He laughed, "Laiish balaah?"

"Madri, shaklii kilesh mu thaak el zoud."

"Chub yala Joory 3an el sakhaafa! Wainech?"

"Na9er please..." I struggled. It was late, and I wanted to be back home at 10..

"Tadreen shloun? Ana 3indech khelaal 5 degaayg.." He closed the phone.

I stared at the phone in utter shock. Shdaraah ana waiinee?

"Shfeech Jay?" asked Jude.

I told them what happened, and Dalia gasped, "Haw shdaraah?"

"Fee a7ad minkoum gayleenlah?" I asked. 

"We don't even talk to him shfeech Jay!" said Dalia.

Jude laughed, "Did you guys forget that he knows this is Jay's favorite restaurant to come in a weekday?" 

"Ohhhhh crap." I sighed. She was right. "You guys shakli khaaaayes! Ou I have to go back home soon, and--"

Ye7lamouuun, ye7lamouun elyy feek yefak--

"Bismelah amdaah?" I was confused. "Aloo?"

"Yala ana baraah.." he chuckled. "Yala 7maid baraah barrah!" He told his friend.

I looked outside the window, he was right. I saw his black Land Jeep outside and his friend getting out of the car. 

"Um, okay 3a6ni digeegtain.." I said.

"Yala na6rech, bye." He closed the phone.

"YOU GUUYS! I'm nervouus." I wined.

"Goumaaay yallaa.." laughed Dalia.

"Shall we drag her to the door?" giggled Jude.

Dalia widened her eyes, and there was an "aha!" look in her face. She laughed and said, "We shall." 

They got up and came over to my chair and pulled me.

"Oh nooo, you guys please don't--"

Before I knew it, I was outside wining. I looked up and looked at him, gazing at me. He laughed at the scene. We looked pretty stupid.

Dalia and Jude chuckled, and went back to the table inside.

I went around and got in the passenger's seat. 

"Umm, hallaw." I felt akward.

"Halaw intaay.." He laughed.

Ghami'6 3youunik 7abeebi, ghami'6 3youunik.. Bagoulelak shaii bas esmaa7li ib galbak, me7tajelek fee 7ayatii, magdar ibdouunak, aw bakhte9erlek ou agoullek: a7ibek, a7ibek.

Akhaaaih ya Rashed 3ala hal ighneyya!

He lowered the volume and cleared his throat, "Joory.."

Wow, his voice is manly and deep. WAI JOORY! Mo wagtech ou your silly comments, rakzayy! "Hala?" 

"Abeech.. Ou men9ijyy hal marra.. mabi imhawash ou hal suwalif, walah inee malait ya Joory.."

I was stunned. I knew this was going to happen, but not this fast and this honest. And by the way, ya Joory? Seriously? You sound like my mom;/

I nodded and said, "Rathya."

Guess what? Bader popped into my mind again.

He smiled. 

Yaa taaj rasii, yaa galbii ou ya3aiinee! ..

I lifted my body away from the passenger seat to get access to my back pockets. I dug my phone out from my pocket and looked at it. It was my mom. 

"Oh craaaap!" I wined.

"Shfeech? Minuu?" he asked.

"Omy.." I looked at him.

"Mekhalif, gouleelaha intay bel 6ireej .." he said.

"Madri Na9er.." I looked at my phone confused. 

She stopped calling. "Khalas 6aaf.." 

I looked at the time, it was 10:04. "Tara kilesh magdar a6awel, te2akkhar el wagt!" I said.

"10 degayyg 3ala shani.." He gave me his puppy dog face.

I laughed and said, "Bas 10 degaayg!" 

We laughed, talked and joke. We had a good time.. I looked at the watch. Oh fuck! 10:45pm!

"Na9er walah lazm arja3 el bait.." I looked at the watch again.

"Okay khalas 3ayyal, derray balech 3ala 3umrech.." He smiled and stroked my cheek.

"Inshalah.. yala bye.." I smiled and got off the car. I walked in the restaurant and saw Dalia and Jude laughing really hard for some reason..

"You guys! Laish madagaiitaw 3alaii nabahtouuni inaa it got late?" I walked over to them.

"Wee shit! We didn't even realize it.." Jude said as she checked her phone.

"Yala yala banat lets head home, ana age6koum okay?" offered Dalia.

We all nodded and walked towards the car.

"Shalaih bel weekend you guys?" I suggested as I got in the car.

"Yeah, sure why not?" winked Dalia.

"I'll check with my 'rents." said Jude.

"Okay." I nodded and checked my phone. There was a miss call from Na9er.

I called him back, "Aloo?"

I heard him laugh. Really hard. "Madrii wain rifeeejii!"

"Huh?" I giggled with him.

"Walah min9ijjy Joory!"

"Shqa9dek?" I was confused.

"Ana 6eradtah baraah el sayaraa 9aa7? Ou mkhalee telephonah ihnee! Wal7een madrii wainah! Ga3d atmasha bel sayara adawra." He chuckled.

I laughed and shook my head, "Walah intaw mou 9a7yeen! Allah ye3eenik.."

"KAAAAHU!" he shouted.

I giggled, "Mabroook! Yala honey badig 3ala omyy.. "

"YEL3AN KHAIREK WAIN RE7T?! Haa? Ok khalas take care.. Bye!" 

I smiled and closed the phone.

So live your life, you steady chasin' that paper. Just live your life! Ain't got no time for no haters, just live your life.

"6awlaaaaaaw!" screamed Dalia.

I laughed at Dalia's reaction, and thought, yeah, everyone should live their life.
