Alhaitham - 2

There was a festival went on at the Grand Bazaar where you and Alhaitham went to attend. You told him that it was hard to have such event so you insisted that the both of you should go even when he did not want to.

It was an event from another region that collaborated with the Zubayr Theater. While you were conversing with the ladies at the vendor, Alhaitham was standing by the stairs watching the performance.

"Look there." Alhaitham heard two kids of his age, which was his classmates, talking and looking at a certain direction. He followed their eyes and there was you and Zubayr, speaking with smile and laughter.

"My mom said that lady had an affair with Uncle Zubayr when her husband went to the desert. She called her a cheap woman." They snickered, and Alhaitham had heard of this numerous time about you. He could feel himself boiling from the inside.

"Yeah, as soon as her husband died she went straight to Uncle Zubayr." They laughed again.

"What do the adult call her again ? Right, a slut !"

With that, Alhaitham went and punch that kid in the face. Their fight did not caught anyone attention at first as they were kids, until he was pushed with the tall vase and fell. The shattered vase finally took your attention.

"Alhaitham !" You rushed to him as he picked himself up. His forehead was bleeding from the shard of the vase, and you teared up seeing it trickled down his face.

While at the infirmary, Alhaitham watched you and Zubayr talked a few steps away from him. He could not hear what the two of you were talking about, but seeing Zubayr attend to you personally and even pay for his medication said a lot.

Alhaitham was reading a book in the library when he was called by a Sage. He was tasked to look into a closed cave as there was a case of death that did not have a detail of the chronology. One of the matra found the body and it was older than the time given.

He was just a scribe, but the deep cavern might hold knowledge that he yet to find. Therefore, despite it out of his scope of job, he accepted the offer.

All morning you spent your time trying to wake up from the dream. You pinched yourself, you went to bed and wake up again, nothing works. Your place did not change, everything was the same, except you.

Then, you ran out of your house to the Grand Bazaar where you usually visit to buy fruits and other things. You were a regular visitor there since the atmosphere calms you.

"Shevirme !" You called the first person you saw once you stepped in. He was just finished serving a customer when he turned around, and his eyes widened and turned bright red.

Though that was not what you focus on. He was the same, not changing. The smell of the snacks were the same, and the spice from the vendor next door smelt as sharp as usual.

"L-Lady, you know me ?" He stuttered as his eyes moved away. You tilted your head and when you looked down, you realized you forgot to change your night gown and your body had changed and therefore it came a bit loose.

"Sorry." You apologized.

"Shevirme, what's happening you're all flustered." Jut shouted from across the vendor, and when his eyes fell on you, he had the same surprised look.
