Khalid: This is Josephine, my nurse.
Amal: Khalid wouldn't take his eyes off her..
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
S3eed:
Joojoo and I were having lunch at the farm. She ate so quietly, avoiding eye contact.
Me: Soft drink or fresh juice?
I got up to the fridge, she shook her head..
I got back to the table and pulled a chair in front of her.
Me: Would you please look at me?
She looked away, I held her cheeks, she pushed away.
Me: Juwaher look at me, now.
With my assertive voice she listened. With her mad face and tears in her eyes, she said.
Joojoo: What do you want?
Me: You.
Khalid:
Father and Amal went ahead with some doctor to check me out of the hospital. Josephine had to leave, but before she did I held her hand.
Me: Can I see you for dinner some time soon?
Josephine: Ce serait sympa ..
She smiled. What the ??
Me: So?
Josephine: Yes, I'd like that.
Me: Great! Dinner at the hotel I stay in is okay?
She nodded, smiling shyly, and I wrote it down for her.

Cursed With Beauty (65)
Previously:
Amal: How sick is he..?
Khalid:
She was a beauty and her vibe filled the room
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Khalid:
Hours later, I felt better, and I was discharged. I was surprised she had spent a lot of her time caring for me, but she was just a student. She was eager to know where I came from, and the meaning of my exotic sounding name. She sat by my bed listening attentively. Once I had to get up, she helped me with my jacket, and left her hand on my shoulder. From an easy conversation, to an intense silent moment. I looked into her eyes, and the innocence was gone. I looked at her red lips, and when our eyes met, they were fixed. I leaned in and kissed her gently. She breathed as if her life depended on it and leaned in so that our lips were in contact. There was no reason to deprive her, so I kissed her again, and again. She held my neck as I tug on her bottom lip, and invade her mouth..
Amal:
I walked in the hallways of the hospital far ahead of my father, I understand he's getting old, but I was just on a mission to find my brother. As I passed by a room, a sound of a moan comes to my attention. I was walking fast, but from the corner of my eye I spot my brother making out with a blonde woman. Stunned, I realize I have to warn him before father walks by the room. I took a few steps ahead and spoke in Arabic, with loud clear words..
Me: Baba Come on, if you're going to walk this slow, we'll never find Khalid!
I part of me was hoping it wasn't him in there.Khalid would never be brave enough to talk to a girl, let alone kiss her! How the hell did that happen!?
As father passes by, he points at the room he's in.
Father: Amal he's in here. You probably didn't notice him.
I wish I didn't!
A second later, he gets out the room and leans his back against the door.
Khalid: Father, this is Josephine, my nurse.
Father's checking his phone, he looked up, paused for a second, then looked back to his screen. Khalid on the other hand, wouldn't take his eyes off of her...
Amal: How sick is he..?
Khalid:

Cursed With Beauty (64)
Note to the readers,
I've been editing so let's get some facts right:
S3eed's Salma's older brother. Salma and Amal are the same age. The man 3asha (Mai's sister) is married to is called M7amad, who's also Khalid's friend..
As always, you are my energy..
Twitter: @Amnannah ; let me know you're there..

Love, C.B.
Previously:
Amal:
Paris? Tonight? What's going on!?
S3eed: Family business
Joojoo: And what am I?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Amal:
We stand before our gate, and I stare outside, drowning in my silence, and the thoughts of my lack of knowing.. A waiter cuts my thinking with a glass of lemonade..
Me: Father?
He stares down at me, and I begin to feel like an annoying child.
Me: What's wrong?
Father: He's sick, your brother, and we need to be there for him.
How sick is he? How long are we staying there? What about Mai? Who's going to watch her? She's pregnant damn it, why doesn't she come along? What about grandmother and 3osha?
I couldn't possibly ask all of those questions, so I looked up at him.. He picked up his ringing phone. While he talks business and work, I begin to think of my own.. I was half way through my 11th grade journey, I remember..
Kovu, S3eed, & 7amad were all seniors .. By the coming year, there's no crush, overprotective cousin, or mentor.. It suddenly seemed like life would somewhat feel a bit empty. I began to tear up, and though it was midnight, I took out my sunglasses and wore them. When finally it was time to get on the plane, I got looks from people. Yes, I felt like those losers who walked around in sunglasses in a mall, but I wasn't going to let my father see me break..
Khalid:
Blurred vision, but it's so bright. A huge window is what I begin to notice, and the sun's staring right at me. A sudden headache slams into when my senses and soul collide. It overwhelming.. I looked around, white walls, white curtains, white floors, and the room only bears the bed I lay on, and a couple of wooden chairs, but that was basically it. I try to focus on my vision, and it wasn't very difficult with the lack of color in the room, then she came in. White scrubs, blonde hair, wide eyed, with red lips.. So early?
My vision blurred as I focus on her eyes, she smiled.
Nurse: Good morning, monsieur!
unconsciously, I smile, mimicking her wide, innocent smile. When I tried to reply, I failed..
Nurse: Don't worry, you'll be okay.
She comes closer to me, checks some machines working over me..
Nurse: Your vitals seem to be working fine.. How are you feeling?
Me: Dizzy..
She was a beauty, and her vibe filled the room. Simply amazing..

Cursed With Beauty (63)
Note To The Readers:
I can't apologize enough.. I promise to post twice a week starting Sunday.
My Twitter: @Amnannah , let me know you're a reader..
Much Love, C.B.
Previously:
Khalid: I'm sick, but dare you say a word to Mai.
7amad: A billion years? Too long Salmal. Wait on me.
S3eed: Damn I wish I'd shaved.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Khalid:
I woke up from sleep shivering, cold sweat, and unable to move easily. I got up and went down to the reception and asked for a doctor. I sat on a corner in the lounge with only a concierge over me, I waited what seemed to be forever.
Concierge: Monsieur, are you okay?
Me: I.. Don't.. Know..
I said, at battle with my uncontrollable shivering. I continued " Water please."
The concierge shouts. "une bouteille d'eau S'il vous plait"
My heart starts slamming against my chest , I was able to actually hear it. Suddenly, it quickened like a drummer's solo, and I couldn't catch a breath.
Me: Come on please, just help, please.
But it was too late..
Amal:
I sat back in Algebra, done with the required lesson. I looked outside the window, to the sky.. I spot a plane on take off.. Damn, I wish I was there.. Somewhere around Khalid, my cheerful, annoying, always right of a brother. Somewhere along my train of thoughts, the bell rang, but I didn't hear it. I realized I was still looking at the window, even though the airplane disappeared.
Until my thoughts returned from where they've been, I look around to find myself alone in class with Mr.M..
Mr.M: Is everything okay, Amal?
Me: Yeah! Sorry..
I try to smile, but it disappeared sooner than I wished.
Mr.M: Sit back Amal, I have some papers to give you.
He got out of class for a minute or two, and came back Kovu.
I sat properly, I knew I was blushing..
Mr. M just wrote an equation at the top of the white board.
Mr.M: Solve this, you have lunch break to solve it correctly.
As I stood up, I got a call from my father. I held my phone in my hand embarrassed, do I pick up?
He nods..
Me: Dad?
Father: Come home, we're leaving.
Me: Where to?
Father: Paris, tonight.
He hung up.. Paris!? Tonight? What's going on!
S3eed:
Just Salma, Amal, and I on one table. She told us she's traveling. Paris, but she doesn't know why. Joojoo joins and suddenly, we stop talking. Family business..
Me: My father will drive you home, pack your school bag..
Amal nods and leaves silently. I got back to my lunch but Joojoo was still looking at me, waiting for me to talk I guess?
Me: What?
Joojoo: What's going on?
Me: She's going back home.
Joojoo: Is she ok? What happened?
Irritated, I just couldn't.. Her curiosity for new gossip..
Me: It's non of our business..
Joojoo: But somehow, you know?
Me: Family business.
Joojoo: And what am I?
she left her lunch on the table and left.
I can't apologize enough.. I promise to post twice a week starting Sunday.
