Chapter 3

I wake up on a Thursday morning, with Noura and Reema screaming for me to wake up. God they can be so annoying! Ma amaza7! SUPER annoying. "wa5roo ya bathraat, LEAVE ME ALONE! I didn't sleep until late last night!" I screamed right in their ears so they would leave. "Oh, oo 3ala balk we care? YALLA WELLA BAKUB 3ALEEK MOUYA" Noura threatened. At the sound of her saying that I flew up to the bathroom. I'd rather DIE than someone waking me up with water. "Ahh, now your up. Finally we know how to wake you up now." Reema laughed, "SHUT UP" I giggled and screamed from inside of the bathroom.
I took a shower got dressed, skinny jeans, a green morattab top, and Adidas sneakers. Held my hair back in a pony tail and braided the rest of the tail. Zero make up, but I looked pretty-fresh and clean.

While we were making our way to the car mama called and told me enna my brother has to drop us where ever we want to go because he's leaving and mafe sawag. I was in the passenger seat waiting for my brother. And there he appeared, but he wasn't alone. Nawaf's with him. My stomach squeezes and my heart drops. I want to understand why do I have this feeling when he's here? Do I like him? NO WAY! I can't! I went to the backseat with the girls, still thinking about how to deal with him. ...Well, he's my cousin right? So, I decided I'll give him a chance. Friendship. Rakabu the guys and asked me ween nrou7. The girls and I decided to pull a little prank on them. We would tell them a place and just before we arrive, we change it. This went for an hour. "Latifa, I'll take your pin men Reema okay?" Nawaf asked politely. "If that's okay with you" he continued. "Yeah, sure, shda3wa." I blushed. Reema and Noura noticed me blushing. "Wagtek ya Nawaf, we have a game to catch up to" we still go on with the prank. "Testahbeloun, 9a7? Tara walla ma 3endi mane3 athebkkum al7een right now bel share3" Faisal said, he was a bit angry he says he has this game and he has to be on time. "Mashalla, since when are you on time?" I asked sarcastically. They all giggled. "5ala9, we were just joking rou7 beetna." Reema ruined the plan. "REEMAA!!" Noura and I screamed. "Thankyou, Reema!" Faisal said sincerely. Nawaf laughed hysterically! He has the sexiest laugh ever. Even when I'm mad at Reema his laugh made me smile.

And so they dropped us off at their house. 6ala3na ma63am, t3'addeena, and on the way back we had this freaky guy following our car. I tried to call Faisal to tell him yje ysa3edna, but he didnt answer. Reema called Nawaf and he panicked and came in an instant, when he came the guy left, he new he was a brother or something. "If you need anything just call me." Nawaf said. He looked at me in the eyes and smiled sympathetically I couldn't help but smile back. "Cute a5ook mu zay Faisal." I told Reema. "Yeah, right..." Reema rolled her eyes.
We came back and decided to prank call people. "Fe ragm 9a7b Nawaf in his room, dgeega bajeeba." She ran off and came back again in an instant. We dialed the number, I was the first one to talk. I tried to change my voice to a 3ajooz's, 
"Hala walla wbayye, agool, om 3abdullah feetha?" I thought I was terrible. "L6eefa?" the voice in the phone sounded familiar. it's Nawaf. "Nawaf?" I regained my usual voice. "wsh ga3da tsween mn ween jebty hatha el ragm?" I can see he's confused, obviously. "Yeah, we were prank calling, Reema jabat hatha el rage mn 3'orfetek" Reema hit me lightly and whispered, "don't get me in trouble ya 7aywana!" I'm still also confused, isn't this his friends' phone? "wait, mu hatha jawal 9a7bek?" I asked. "Ee, kan ma3ay el jawal oo ran oo it was Reema's number" he said. "Ohh cute 7afe6' ragm e5tek! Hahahah" Reema and Noura were bugging me to hang up. So 6ala3t oo sakkart el bab. After I got back ba3ad ma Nawaf and I soulafna. They both looked at me suspiciously.  "Oo tgoulinli, don't fall inlove don't go out with 6alal, oo your OBVIOUSLY and dont deny it, inlove with Nawaf" she mimiced my voice. I cut her off before she could complete. "Who told you hatha mn 3aglek 6alla3ty, there's no such thing as love agoollek melyoun mara! Oo he's my cousin were friends 3ady!" I say angrily. "Aha, so a 'friend' blushes when a cousin 'friend' asks for her pin" Reema interrupts with air-quotes. "I did not blush! Why would I blush?" I lied. "what ever you say 7abeebty, yalla what movie do you want ba6leb" They changed the subject. I had fun at Reema's.

I went home happy, put on my pajama, and jumped on my bed.
Unlock my phone, 4bbm. 1 broad-cast. 2 from Reema and Noura which both says, "Inlove with Nawaf! =))<3 Aww" I laughed at this because they are seriously crazy.
And 1 bbm request, Nawaf. I like him. *Accept* I press.
I go on the Internet and skyped with Noura and Reema for a bit, while I see my phone's red blinking.
I unlock my phone. it was Nawaf.
Nawaf: Hi, l6eefa.
