What if.. (2)

“Uff.. I’m late as usual.. Elleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen where is the coal for my 3ood?”
“Comiiiing comiiing”
Hind put the 3ood on the burning coal and stood over it while she adjusted her abaya.
She ran down the stairs, her car waiting for her in front of the gate.
“Besmilla” she said turning on the AC and heading out to work. While driving she felt her phone vibrating in her handbag.
Bandar Calling
“Aloooo”
“9aba7 il5air ya gamar”
“Hahah ay gamar awal il9eb7.. 9aba7 ilnoor.. shlonik?”
“Tamam.. inty kaifek? Late as usual?”
“Eeee I dreamt of you know who” she said pouting
“hmm I’m guessing it was the bad dream”
“yes” she said quietly. Bandar was technically one of her best friend’s brothers; Maha her friend was Saudi and they met while they were all studying in London. Bandar was doing his PhD at that time while Maha was just starting her BA with Hind and Sara, after they finished their bachelors Maha decided that she’s had enough of London, while Sara and Hind wanted to continue their post grad studies, after Maha left the girls found Bandar to be somewhat of a replacement for his sister and became very close to him.. they never understood why he actually spared so much of his time, considering he was one of the guys ily kel banat London 7a6een 3ainhum 3alaih.
“any way… sha5bar Mahooya?”
“wallah il7amdlela.. very busy getting ready for the baby”
“Awww.. I wish I can come see her”
“You should.. you know she needs all the support she can get, she’s exhausted fighting off that mean sister-in-law”
“eee miskeena.. I hope that if I EVER get married akoon best friends m3 my sister-in-law” she said with a sad smile.
“Inshallah..” he said quietly, “anyway.. ana a5aleek.. I have a meeting to go to”
“But I didn’t tell you about my dream!”
“No need, I already know everything.. bye” and he hung up.
Hind stared at the phone.
“Shfeh ilyoum mn il9eb7” she shrugged her shoulders and parked her car to start a day at work.

Hmm. That pacifies me a bit. Only a bit mind you. Its hard to come back when you step out. Still, it'd be great if you did someday...
