Why Me?

chapter 4- new faces, his face

  My muscles tensed at the thought of whats going to happen , this was it.

I was taken downstairs and my uncle arrived. I turned around and looked at mom she put her hand in mines."Goodbye my sweet sara, take care of yourself and listen to your mother in law ok?" My mother started to get teary but quickly covered it up with a smile and a warm hug. "Okay mom , you take care of yourself and if anyone bothers you tell me and I'll have my way with them" I told her with a grin on my face . She laughed "I love you"
"I love you more mom, bye"

There I was in the backseat of a car with my three friends while my grandpa's in the passenger seat and my uncle is driving . The car was going fast. A little too fast for my liking . I was supposed to be crying my eyes out and feeling so alone but that's not what I felt at all . I was smiling from ear to ear and laughing with my friends. I was happy because they snuck out to come with me when they weren't supposed to leave the house .Finally I wasn't left alone and that was enough to make me happy for the moment at least .

There were so many cars in front and behind of the one we were in playing loud arabic zeffa (a form of music played in weddings) and making way for us to get to the house, or should I say my "husband's" house.

After driving around for about an hour or so we finally arrived . The smile that was on my face quickly vanished and my stomach felt like it was ripping in half. I didn't want to throw up everywhere but it sure felt like I was going to.

'Hmm maybe I should hold it in until I go inside and puke in his face , that would be a sight to see hehehhe'

"SARA JAMIL" my uncle screamed .
"Whaaat why are you screaming my name?"
"Because I called you four times and you werent answering"
Oh wow four where was I?
"sorry , what do you want?"
" I said we are here , lets get you down your husband is waiting by the door to take you inside"
"Oh uhhh ok"

  Before he got out of the car to open the side door I slightly stuck my head out the widow and looked towards the house . There was a guy standing in front of the door dressed to impress but looking down.
I thought all guys stare , maybe he's the shy type I hope .

I was led first getting down from the car followed by my uncle, grandpa and three friends . The second I got next to the door he grabbed my hand and put it in his. Slowly I tried to pull my hand back because I didn't want to be holding his but he didn't have it and just held on me tighter like I was going to run away.

He walked me into their living room which was bigger then ours and was packed even more. Walking in the living room a disgusting smell hit my face. Sweat diapers armpits everything nasty put together into one horrible stench. Ignoring the smell I focused on not falling on my face because the animal holding onto my hand was dragging me through the mob of women and children instead of actually helping me . He didn't even consider the fact that I was wearing a dress that weighed more then me and him put together .Too bad for being shy or even a gentleman . He is upright disrespectful.

   We got to the end of the living room and sat on the over decorated chairs but there were four chairs instead of two. So that meant another couple is coming . Then I remembered my mom telling me another bride was coming in the same day as me . I smiled the thought of there being another bride made me happy . They weren't going to be stuck on me that much at least . Maybe she could even be trouble for me I don't know but right now I don't care . She was late and all eyes and attention was on me. Just great a bunch of people I don't know staring at me and the animal next me me .That's when I recognized my friends coming towards me with my grandpa and uncle.

   Each one kissed me on the head and whispered in my ear saying everything's going to be okay and that I'm a strong girl before leaving . That's when I started to feel lonely and sad. Looking around I didn't notice anyone familiar . I knew no one except my husband and he wasnt that nice either . He was in his own world right now and I was stuck here with stinky ladies .

   I looked at him from the corner of my eye . Wow he looks like he just won the lottery . Grinning from ear to ear and laughing.  'Whats so funny retard?' I followed his eyes to see what he is looking at maybe I could laugh too , little did I know he was looking at his mom and she was making faces and telling him to smile . I giggled , with  all the noise and the ladies it looked like she's a phsyco playing charades. I think he heard me giggle because he turned to  me in a blink of an eye . I froze , taking in all his features.  It felt like hours but I knew it was only a couple of seconds . That's when I realized. ....... I married an ugly guy.

    Now that he is my husband I guess I have to start calling him by his name . Which is Adam. Adam isn't the type of ugly that makes your eyes hurt , but he was ugly .
His complexion is light and he was sweating heavily, while his hair was brushed back a very dark shade of black with thick eyebrows 'thank god he doesn't have a unibrow' . All over his face he has tiny dark beauty marks but nothing about them looked good . His nose and mouth are fine but his eyes showed no mercy in his stare . He looked like the devil himself for a second then that vanished and he smiled a comforting smile and held my hand in his.
'what's his problem' I thought.

A couple minutes passed and Adam told his mom that it's about time we cut the cake and drink juice. 'Finally cake and juice I'm starving!'  . That got me sad though because after we eat and drink, or should I say feed eachother and drink from eachothers cups adam will have to leave to finish partying with the men while I stay here withe the woman.  I didn't want him to leave even though he wasn't much help at least he is better then these woman . There's nothing I could do to change that 'stupid tradition'  

The cake was four layers with chocolate frosting and white flowers . My mother in law Raneem , cut two big peices and handed them to us. I fed Adam a little bite and he did the same . We put down the cake and some girl took them out of the way and placed two cups of juice. Just when I thought we were about to drink adam surprises me. "Hey you... yeah you bring back the cake my wife only fed me a tiny piece" he said . The same girl brought back the cake . 'Is he serious ? What a pig!' We fed eachother once more and this time I stuffed a huge piece in his mouth and he laughed. Something told me he wasn't hungry he just wanted me to feed him again.

   some lady related to adam took pictures and videos. I was starting to feel uncomfortable . once we got to the juice I drank from his cup first .He gently brought it up to my lips and tilted at the perfect angle so nothing spilled. Then it was my turn, I didnt want to look him in the eyes so looking away I bringing the cup up to his chin while he bent his legs to reach it and of course being clumsy I spilt the drink all over him.

'Shirt shit shit what the fuck is wrong with you sara'

Raneem quickly brought paper towels and handed me a couple. 'Oh great first I spill the freaking juice on him now I have to clean it off' I started cleaning the juice off when suddenly I felt his hand on mine. Adam grabbed the paper towels from me and started to clean himself . 'Oh gosh I think he's mad' I looked at his face to see if I could catch a glimpse of emotions but he was just laughing. 'Wtf? I just spilled juice all over you , now your laughing?' I thought

"Its okay its just juice, I'm going to change." He said and just like that he left the room . That was the first sentence he said to me . My heart sank thank god he didn't get mad if thought he was going to make a big scene. I sat back down waiting for the day to come to an end then I remembered what's going to happen later. 'Ugh I'm still in for a long night' I whispered to myself .

  Hours passed the other bride came with Adams brother, her husband and did what we did . soon the wedding was dying down no one except the family was left. Raneem took me to my room and I sat on the bed. She told me adam will be in any minute and that I could get ready.

     'This is it ugh god help me' I thought. .............
