Staying away

Chapter 4- Texts

It's now the end of the day, the walima is over and most people are gone now and Omar was away from me the entire day.

Ever since we finished the photos and came home his mood has been different.

He and my brother are bipolar as hell.

I'm family happy I can take off my heavy makeup and change into comfy clothes as I help my aunts clean up around a little.

While Sara is still in her dress and makeup and all that heavy jewelry, I don't know how she does it.

Omar is gone, sadly but I still got his insta.

I do a little happy dance in my head.

After everyone is finally gone it's about 3 am and I'm heading to bed.

*next day*

I wake up to see my phone having or notifications as usual but one new one stood out for me.

He messaged me.

I jump up from my bed do a quick stretch and go see the message, I was a bit hesitant about it first but oh well.

'Sorry I just left without saying anything yesterday, how are you?'

The butterflies that one sentence gave me.

I was just about to reply as I heard a knock on my door.

"Come in," I say

That's when Tahir walks in with messy bed hair. Of course, the first thing he notices is that I was texting someone and asks

"Who are you texting?"

"My friend"

"What's she saying"

Lol. He thinks it's a she. little does he know.

"Oh, she's just asking how the wedding went yesterday," I reply

"Oh ok, just wanted to tell you that I and Sara are going out today so you'll be alone."

"That's fine"

You might be wondering where are our parents?

They're dead.

"Ok get out now I'm going to take a shower,"
I say to him and he was just about to walk out but I remember something I wanted to ask him.

"Why were you made yesterday?"
He freezes and slowly turns around to lock eyes on me.

"I-uh-just things from work that was going on, nothing to worry about."

He owns a bunch of businesses, must be stressed since he took off more than a week for the wedding.

"Oh ok," I respond blandly.

"Now get out"

He leaves in a dash.Weirdo.whatever I'm going to shower.

After I get out of the shower and get ready I saw another notification from Omar on my phone.
I look at the message

'Oh, so you're just gonna leave me on seen?'

He was checking? Wow.

'Lol, sorry my brother came in the room and I forgot about it and went to shower.'

'Wow am I that forgetful to you? That hurts.'

'Yea it should hurt being forgotten by someone like me.'

'Cocky much.'

'Hah, I'm feeling fine tho thanks for asking. Do you want to meet up sometime?'

I can't believe I just sent that, your girl has to shoot her shot, shit what if he says no? what if I get friend-zoned? what if-

'Sure that would be great!'

He just agreed. I'm shocked.

'Yes but let's not tell my brother.'

'I'm perfectly fine with that.'

'You know the bridge behind my house in Hillsborough Park?'

'Yea that place is good, we'll meet there."

We think the same.

'Yea what time today?'

'6?'

'6 it is.'

'Do you want me to pick you up, Madam?'
He says sarcastically.

Wow, what a gentleman, but no.

'That's nice, but I have cameras outside of my house and the bridge is a two-minute walk from my house, so I'm fine.'

'Alright whatever works for you, are you gonna sneak out?'

'No, but I'm obviously not telling him WE are meeting up.'

'Alright love, see you at 6.'

God, what did I just get myself into?
