I smile remembering my childhood sweetheart angel,that is what I always called her,She hate it when i address her by her name,we were best friend,I angel and my twin brother Abdullateef (FAISAL),but one day she just left,she never come to school and when we went to their house we were told they travel and never come back up till date.
She was always silent,she never played with anyone but us two,she is smart despite how small she was and always defend us,even though Abdullateef (FAISAL) told her she don't have too.
"Dude"Faisal called pull me out of my thought.
"You and your day dreaming"He mumbled.
"I was.....I am just thinking"I mumbled while he gave me a knowing smile.
"Let me guess,is about Angel right?"He said smiling,he knows how I felt about her,I nodded while he groan and looked at me i pity.
"I sympathize,but how can I help?"He asked while I just rolled my eyes,it been ages now and now we are both grown,sometimes Faisal told me I am just after a ghost because he don't think she still existed.
"Their is nothing you can do bro"I mumbled
"Plus don't you have anything to do?"I asked
"Other than disturbing me" I thought
"I do"He said smiling,I hate how identical we are, sometimes It seems like I am looking at my self.
"Then go out please"I mumbled
"Ouch!! That hurt and you sound rude plus it really ache"He said placing his palm on his chest,I rolled my eyes,he is never serious despite him been a surgeon and grown up man,I still remember when he trick me that he have heart disease and make me cry for the rest of the day and the next day he said he was lying smiling widely like he won Oscar.
"FAISAL"I groan
"Can't you for once be serious,for Allah sake you are 24yrs?"
"FAROOQ"He Mimick
"Can't you be any playful,come on man loose up a bit,and for Allah sake I am your brother"He added with a pout,i glared at him
"I got work to do,I wonder how Batool cope with you"I mumbled.
"I might be this playful all the time with you as you said but trust me my girl never see this part of me"He said winking which make me titter .

"You did not bet on me?"I warned.
"What.

"Yes Mam"I choked and wipe my tears as I hurriedly walked to the girls room to start cleaning it ,in the next 20 minutes I am done cleaning Maryam room, hopefully Surraiya cleaned has and I tidy the house and cook lunch,cause if I did not do it on time is another punnishment,Aunty won't give me any food for two days,yes two freaking days how lovely of her to starve me.

"Macaroni for brother,fried Irish and egg for her highness Maryam,Aunty and Uncle Semovita and Vegetables soup,what did you....."I was stopped by Surraiya sobbed
"Macaroni"She mumbled and run away,I huffed and nodded,I hate seeing her in tears and for Allah sake this is not my first time.

"The next time you push me again,I am going to make your life a living hell"He said while I refrain myself from scoffing,as if I am am enjoying now,he patted my cheek softly and walked away.
