listen to : if i only had the heart - the maine

( tell me what you think of this chapter)



fahad:

its been 2 days since faisal called. to his utter chagrin and to my relief he still couldn't find a flight.


but that only meant that he was being delayed and that i only had a head start

the truth is faisal would eventually find me. id only had a head start.

---




me : "DONT FIND ME, DONT FUCKING FOLLOW ME FAISAL. 5ALNEE BRO7Y"

i threw my notebook on the floor .

faisal:" SHINHO? !DO YOU THINK YOU CAN TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF?! DID YOU REALLY THINK ID JUST FUCKING LET IT GO? oh well since i have layan now i don't need my best friend anymore and he can just run away whenever he wants to because il7aya 7ilwa. IS THAT WHAT YOU EXPECTED ME TO DO?!! DO YOU THINK THAT BECAUSE I GOT HER THAT ID TURN INTO A  FAIRY AND EAT RAINBOWS?! ANA MO MSABAH, MO THOR O MO GHABY.  try again fahad, because if you really believed id just let you go then you obviously are lying  to yourself"

i took a deep breathe.
me: "your impossible" i muttered

 faisal :" that i am" he replied

i covered my eyes and laughed

me: " you son of a bitch"

faisal:" that too"

and we both laughed

faisal:" reem misses you"

faisal meant himself when he said that, since he knows I'm still in contact with  her.

me:" i miss you too bud. but you shouldn't miss me, I'm not good for this, I'm not capable of taking over that snakes business, you know I'm not cut out for that"

there was a long silence

faisal :" i know its hard to believe but did you know our dads used to be like us?"
.pause.
me:" your right i don't believe it"

faisal:" well they were, they used to trust no one but each other, they never cared about any one else, not there wives or there previous girlfriends. they weren't rich back then fahad, they were normal people"

i laughed

faisal:" well as normal as our dads can get, ilmohim, your dad believe it or not was just like you ...well a bit eviler and more devious and secretive but still.. out of the two of them you were more like him "

faisal sighed

me:" i know its hard for you to say this, and I'm sorry that they had to put you through all of this shit and make you keep so many damned secrets,....... you know i hated them not for what they did to me but for what they put you through faisal... I'm sorry i couldn't shoulder your weight... I'm sorry"

faisal:" don't be.. i did it so that you could live a normal life, and i failed you-"

me:" no you didn't! faisal you were my rock. your the brother i never had. or at least the only person i could rely on"

he was quiet for a long time

faisal:" you know.......... layan loves you too " he said in a hopeful sad voice

me:" don't say her name, don't bring her here, its too humiating for me " i hissed

faisal:" she's your sister and she loves you, YOU DID NOTHING WRONG! NOTHING. now shut up and face it. we love you. we are your family. you need to be with us."

me:" no faisal 5alik ib mokanik, please leave me alone"

faisal:" well too fucking bad fahad, you'll just have to deal"

he said and shut off the phone

the phone rang again

me:" hala"

a7med:" IM COMING TOO!!! ITS NOT FAIR!!! If fa9ool gets to go then so do i!!!"

i just laughed

me:" inzain, bas im not gonna be here when they come. are you up for a road tip? shrayik ib  new york"

a7med:" YAYYYYY HAHAHAHAH were gonna have so much fun!!! bikoon chinna 9aida ma 9aida WANASA"

me:" la tishta6 wayid !......im hoping they give up before they find us"

a7med:" faisal? faisal is the smartest guy i know fahad, and I'm sorry to say this but between the two of you he'll win"

i sighed
me:" well the a7med your in for a real surprise, because unlike faisal, i love being under estimated"

a7medo gasped:" i knew it!!!! bildewaniya galow innik mo hayin hahahaha wanasa. the dark side of fhaid!! fahad two point o"

we both laughed

me:" you bet"
( and that how the rest of the day went, fahad laughed along with a7med, and somewhere else in kuwait faisal, layan and reem were laughing too, as they packed and embarked on an adventure none of them expected.)
