Morning is here.
My eyes are closed but I can feel the sunlight through my eyelids. I slowly open up my eyes, as I look around I see that I feel asleep on the couch.
I am cuddling with Ahmed! He is fast asleep.
His face is buried in my neck and his arms are wrapped around my waist. My arms are on his back and I started to remember last night. He was drunk, he wanted me to massage his back and we both passed out. I, quickly, start trying to figure out a way to get out from under him before he wakes up. If he wakes up to see this, I will never hear the end of it.
OH MY GOD, this man is heavy and needs to stop working out.
I move my arms from around him and slowly try to slide out from under him. I move him as slowly as possible, I am trying so hard to not wake him. "YES!" I think to myself as I get out half way. I thought about how to get out but I didn't weigh in the fact that I am on a couch.
As I slide out, I lose my balance and THUMP! I just landed on my ass making the noise and I freeze.
crack...... crack.... crack..
"Laila?" Ahmed called out very unsure about his surrounding.
He started looking around, trying to understand where he is and he starts to get up.
"Laila!" he screamed when he saw me just laying on the floor.
"heeyyy Ahmedd, what's up?" I said as if my situation right now is normal.
"What are you doing?" he asked
"I'm, um..... I am looking for my earrings" I say with relief
"Right now? Like that?" he raised an eyebrow
"What is this??? 20 QUESTIONS???" I Exclaimed and started to get up from off the floor.
"no I was just---"
"What! huh?" I cut him off
"Woah! Looks like someone woke up on the wrong side" He started to chuckle at his own pathetic joke
"urh" I rolled my eyes and started to walk as far away from him as possible.
I need to go to the bathroom, so I make my way but then I'm stopped in my tracks because of ahmed.
"Laila?" He said as he scratched his head and looked at with so much confusion
aww he looks so lost and sad
I immediately shook my head to get that thought out! nope. not cute.
"Yea?" I replied.
"Um. what happened? All I remember is leaving here and going to Ali's place? How did I end up here? I seriously don't remember anything" he was confused and started to run his hair through his hair.
"Ahmed. Um after our little disagreement, I called you and you didn't sound so good. Ahmed, you were drunk" I explained
"DRUNK??" he screamed. "What the hell are you saying laila? Why would I be drunk? This doesn't make sense" he continued.
"Ahmed, its okay I'm not judging you" I replied
"Judge me?" He questioned. "What are you not gonna judge me for laila? I didn't do anything that suggests you don't judge me?" He said as he got up and started to look for his shoes.
"Ahmed, that's not---"
"You know what? Laila. I get it. You are in shock because you found out about the engagement, so it's all pretty new to you" Continues putting on his shoes. "But I am sick and tired of your high and mighty act, you say you don't judge me but all you've been doing since we met is judge me. You got pissed at me about the engagement, I let it go and then you went on to say that you don't know if you wanna be engaged or not and I walked out. But maybe it's time that you take all you questions to the right people. The parents! they called the shots not me" he expressed.
While listening to him go off I realized, maybe I have been unfair to him. He finally got his shoes on and started to head towards the door.
"Ahmed! Wait. I am sorry. You're right, you and I are in the same position with the same feelings and I shouldn't have attacked you like this was your doing" I explained
He does't reply and it kinda seems like he wants to me to say more to win him back? what a baby.
"I was unfair to you and rude, like you so clearly pointed out. I'm sorry. Can I make it up to you I feel horrible." I said with a sad tone.
"Okay. How about breakfast?" He offered.
"ok! yea I got cereal." i said cheerfully.
"Um. Laila, no. how do you feel about pancakes, eggs and some OJ?" He offered.
He went into the kitchen and started gathering supplies. wow cooking is a plus.
I cracked a smile as i watched him begin cooking in the kitchen. I went in to help him, even though I know nothing about cooking.
