Yours

Chapter 20

Well I would say my first bowling experience wasn't that bad.

Ok let be not sugarcoat it..I did horrible.

I absolutely sucked at bowling!

I gave up halfway because I got tired of the giggles from everyone when I couldn't hit A SINGLE PIN! Not a single one! How hard could it possibly be?!

Adnan who was sitting next to me nudged my shoulder with his "don't worry, the first time I went bowling I also did terribly...well for the first few minutes until I got a hang of it, you know I'm perfect at everything" he joked.

I rolled my eyes "of coursee" I said sarcastically

I laugh along with him.

He has also gotten tired and he had retired next to me.

"Well did you at least have fun?" He asked.

I smiled "yes I did, thank you for inviting me." I said honestly.

He nodded, opening his mouth up to speak only for his phone to start ringing.

He picked it up "yes Abdul?"

"Yes, we're still together" Adnan said as he subtly turned to look at me.

I turned to look back at him curiously.

"Alright...but we're not done-...alright, calm down, I'll send it to you." He said before hanging up the phone and frowning at it.

"I don't know what's wrong with him, he's snapping at me like a pregnant woman, he sounds tensed I don't know what happened."

"Ya Abdul?" I asked to confirmed.

He nodded "he said I should send him our location"

What would we possibly want to do here?

Adnan typed away on his phone before keeping it back on the space on the bench next to him.

"But I'm sure it's fine, when he comes he'll explain, you look stressed, don't worry" he said as he chuckled before nudging my nose with his finger to make me smile.

But that didn't work. What could possibly make Ya Abdul want to come here, and he said he sounds tensed. What happened?

I tried to think of logical reasons why he would want to come meet us, he wants to go bowling too? I doubt that, he's way too busy these days that he barely has time for himself.

Then why does he want our location? Or maybe he just wants to know? For emergency reasons? I don't know, I was overthinking and like Adnan said, it was stressing me out.

I let out a sigh deciding to wait for him to come so I can hear for myself.

My mind was able to wander off for a few minutes and forget about this when Adnan's youngest siblings, Haifa and Imam, come to stand in front of us and start bombarding me with questions.

"Ok alright, tell your Yaya to bring you to the office and I'll show-" I didn't get to finish it and they started squealing.

"Uncle Abdul!" They said in unison before they run towards him.

I've never met a kid that's not obsessed with him, how does he manage to do that? He needs to tell me his secret so I can use it on Aliya.

He returned their hugs before they walked deeper into the space, the other siblings moved towards us when they noticed his presence and greetings filled up the air.

His eyes move to mine "Rabi'ah, let's go."

I blinked at him before turning to look at Adnan, he looked equally as confused as I was.
