I hang up and message Dom:
Hey Dom, I know that for some reason you don't want to talk to me, because you've not been replying my messages. But you do read them, and so, I wanted to let you know that Ashley needs you to pay rent, fix something with your car and work on YouTube. Come home Dom. I need to know where we stand and I need to know you're okay.
I press send.
'Lil?'
'Yeah?'
'Are you okay?'
'Yes.'
'Okay then. Here is the rice bowl and a bit of other stuff.'
I smile. Great. I'm doing it again. Lilly, if Dom doesn't want to talk, means he doesn't like you. Yousef is making the effort, means he might like me. I count to ten and forget about Dom.
'So, what movie are we going to see today?'
'Whichever one you like.'
'Yousef, can I ask you something?'
'Sure!'
'Why are you doing all of this?'
He looked up at me. He held my hand. He whispered,
'Because Lilly, I really like you.'
I feel this rush inside of me. This is what I need. Yousef is what I need.
'You're not too bad yourself...'
He smiles and I smile back.

Yousefs' POV
I did it!! I won her back! Yes! We finished up at chipotle and walked outside. I held her hand and she looked up at me,
'I never knew you could be so soft Yousef... I like it.'
God she makes me feel such a rush. I smile at her.
'The theater is through the park. Do you want to walk?'
'Will you hold my hand?'
'I will never let go.'
She smiles at me and we walk through the park. We talk and laugh and talk and laugh till we reach the theater.
'This, Lilly is a foreign movie theater.'
'Oh my god I've always wanted to se one of these! You don't understand a thing but it's still beautiful.'
'Beautiful, just like you.'
She smiles and we walk inside.
'Hi sir, what movie?'
'The one showing now.'
'Sure, room 4.'
I get the tickets and we go inside.
'Yousef I love it.'
'I'm glad you do.'
We sit down and I put my arm around her, she blushes and looks at me. Her big brown beautiful eyes look into mine. I put my hand on her cheek, pull her towards me very slowly and soon our lips meet. It's the best feeling ever. Our lips lock and we hold on for a while. When we finish, I can't be happier. She rests her head on my arm and we watch the movie.
15 minutes later, I hear a beep beep on my phone. I excuse myself for a second and walk outside. It is the Dom alarm. I put a camera in the room. I open up the app, and I see Dom running around throwing stuff everywhere. He looks mad! Then I realize.
He's looking for the window.
