My bestie

chapter thirty nine

Ibrahim froze and couldn't hug me back. "Just act as if we're in love you dummy." I whispered in his ear and that's when he hugged me back.

"I missed you babe." Ibrahim said breaking the hug. "I missed you more." I said now looking at Malika and Maya.

If looks could kill, I think I would be six feet under by now with the kind of murderous glare Malika was shooting me. Maya has the expression of 'ok what on planet earth was that?' On her face,and Ibrahim? Well I can't even understand his expression.

"Let's sit." I said holding his arm and we sat down.

"Khair what was that?" Maya whisper yelled.

"What was what?" I asked with a smile creeping up my cheeks.

"You hugged Ibrahim for what? Don't you know its haram?"Maya continued

"Said the person who doesn't care."I replied rolling my eyes at her.

"No like seriously its not a good thing."

"Ok ok I won't do that again." I said raising my hands in surrender but Malika's expression was enough to make me smirk triumphantly.

"I just wanted to get back at Malika you know?" I tried to reason with Maya and she smiled. "OK then,I'm into it but just don't go beyond your limits. I would like to see Malika's priceless face." Maya said smirking.

"So babe...." Annnddd that's how we engaged with lovey dovey conversion with Ibrahim. Malika was fuming everywhere almost ready to explode as each minute passed by.

Oh butterfly! How I love this moment

After spending a hour and half together,Ibrahim left because he received a call from his mom and we also left two minutes after Ibrahim left. Malika was frequently wiping her eyes with her handkerchief and trying to put up a cheerful face but she's honestly miserable at it.

Maya glanced at Malika who was now silently crying and gasped.

"You're a bad girl." Maya whispered giggling. "Put that song for me pls." I said to Maya feeling all brave suddenly. "Which song?" She asked. "Bad guy by Billie Elish."

"I'M THE BAAAD GUYYYYY, DUHH!" I don't know how but I found myself singing along loudly with the song booming out of the car's radio.

"Such a ridiculous girl." Maya chuckled and continued driving.

.......
"School sweet school." I sighed collapsing on the bed. "I'm glad we're finally back. I got to see Xavier again." Maya dreamily said squealing like an excited rat.

I was about to answer her when a call entered my phone. "Oh my Allah." I groaned rejecting the call. Keeping the phone aside, I started arranging my clothes.

"Khair pls pick up this annoying phone. It is ringing like more than twenty times now." Maya fumed handling me my phone and I collected it.

"Don't you have better things to do?" I asked annoyingly as soon as I answered.

"Talking to you is one of the better things I have to do." Ibrahim answered cheerfully.

OK let me analyse this. I think I made a grave mistake since the day that I pranked Malika. Ibrahim never let me live my life in peace again because he always call me to confirm whether we're really a 'thing' and I told him millions of time that we're not but he wouldn't just listen. It got to the extent that I blocked his number but he found another mean to keep calling me.

In fact, I have blocked up to five of his different numbers and of course he wouldn't give up.

"Ibrahim I beg in you in the name of God, leave me alone. We have resumed school and you're a distraction to me. Pls for the sake of the love you have for your parent, don't ever call me again unless I call you myself but if you want me to die,continue calling me and if you really love me then don't disturb my dear life again thank you!" I finished and hung up without waiting for his reply.
