Zahra

Ahmed: "Yalla Zahra! We're going to be late for the training because of you"

Ahmed is calling me from downstairs with a frustrated tone.

"Just wait a damn minute! I'm just checking if I've got everything in my bag!"

Ahmed: "Ufft! If we're going to be late for the training then don't blame it on me!"

I got distracted by Ahmed's annoying voice that I had to check again if I've forgotten anything.

Ahmed: "Zahra! If you don't come down now I'm going to leave! The bus is coming in 10 minutes and it takes us 8 minutes to reach the damn bus stop COME DOWN NOW!

Ughhh let's just get down before this brat bomb's my brain.

"Ufttt! Alright I'm coming"

Ahmed: "Finally!"

He ran out directly and I ran after him also, well trying to catch up with him at least.

The bus is coming in five minutes, so we started to run as fast as we could like we were in a marathon.

Ahmed is running so damn fast like a freaking race car and I'm behind him with my big ass  bag on my shoulder trying to catch up with him.

"Ahmed" pant "fucking" pant "slow down I'm going to die here" I'm gasping for air after every sentence I say.

Ahmed: " it's your fault that we have to run right now because of your slow ass!"

He says while running and panting at the same time.

" I was checking if I've got everything but you had to keep on screaming that I had to double check again!"

I said while running after him with my breathing uneven.

" Besides!" pant  "Where is this station I feel like I've been running forever!" Pant.

Ahmed: "we're here now"

Ahmed stopped running and putt his hands on his knees then bent down and started panting.

I stopped running as well and put one hand on my hip and the other to my heart, trying to slow down my breathing.

The bus came directly just in time, so we went back to our normal breathing fast, so no one notices us dying from the inside.

We checked our tickets and went to the back seats of the bus and sat down.

"I'm . So . Dead ."

Ahmed: " Me. Too."

Our breathing finally relaxed, Ahmed put his headphones on and closed his eyes.

Ahmed: " wake me up when we're there"

"okay"

I said while looking down on my phone, trying to figure out at which stop we'll get off.
It's going to take us six stations to reach our stop so he'll be able to take a little nap.

I put my headphones on also and looked out the window. Ahmed was already asleep and is laying now his head on my left shoulder.

There's one more station and then we'll arrive so I decided to wake Ahmed up now.

I patted his head lightly to wake him up.
" Ahmed, Ahmed"

Ahmed: " Hmm"
He opened his eyes slightly.

" yalla wake up we're going to get off on the next stop"
