"Thank you. What are we waiting for?" She asked.

"The last member. He's on his way.". They said.

"Hello people? You are group 6 right?" Kareef asked.

"What is he doing here again ?" She stared at him.

"Baby? Don't you dare talk about my baby again." She said.

"What did I do to deserve all this? " he shouted.
"Norah I pleaded, I regret everything, I hate my life, I hate what I did to you. What else do you want me to do? Is okay not to love me but stop punishing me. The way you are treating me is killing me."

"Because I can't help." She shouted back.
"I am trying to forget everything but I can't. I can't help kareef." She broke into tears.

"Is okay please wipe up your tears." He said.

"Okay." She wiped it up.
"I will order the food for you. Please." He said.

"I am not hungry anymore." She said.
"For your baby Norah." He looked into her eyes.
"Okay lets go back." She said.

"I want you to help me with this course." She said taking her eyes off him.

"Don't be so excited Mr." She said folding her arms.
"You know I will never ask for help. I actually have no other option." She said glaring at him.

"Okay miss. Please don't start arguing again. Let's move forward." He said.

"Arguing? Am I the only arguing." She said aggressively.
