Chapter 18
I sat on that airplane beside Dulamah looking outside of the window while holding his hand. If we didn't land in a few hours then I was gonna puke. "Jalilah relax", Dulamah says as he brings my hand to hijab mouth. He kisses my hand then he smiles at me. I give a nervous smile back in return.
"Relax", he says again. I nodded my head then pulled my DVD player out and pulled out Rio. One of my favorite kids movie. "Rio, haha. I wanna take you to Brazil one day. Before we have kids", he says.
I smile at him then kiss his nose. "That so sweet baby,......I'd lovme to go too before we have kids", I tell him. He smiles then he grabs his ear phones and hands me a bud to put into my ear. I slip it under my hijab and carefully place it into my lovely like ears.
Dulamah has his bud in and I began to play the video.

"Oh my God is that Rio!!!! Cool!!! MOM LOOK!!! They're watching Rio without me", a little voice says from behind me. Dulamah pauses the video and I turn around to see who interrupted the video.
It was a little girl with reddish hair, chubby cheeks, green eyes and a smirk in her lips. "Hi, my name is Sierra Kingsley and I'm eight years old. Is that Rio you're watching?", she asks. I nod my head. "Can I watch?", she asks. I shake my head 'No'. "Come on please. I won't talk or anything", she says.
"Is that your mom calling you?", I ask her. "Huh? I don't hear anything", she says. "I hear it. Shoo little girl", I tell her. Dulamah gives me a look and I roll my eyes. The little girls eyes water and she points a finger at me. "Mooooomm!", she cries. I touch Sierra's arm and she looks up at me. "Sierra honey, do you want to watch Rio?", I ask her. She nods her head.
Dulamah gives her his ear bug and she puts it in her after hugging him. "Thank you", she whispers. "Most welcomed", Dulamah says playing the video.
I sigh and sit back to watch the video.

Throughout the whole video of Rio. Sierra repeat everything the characters said. She wouldn't shit up and she kept laughing. When the movie had finished I was so happy. Sierra yanks the ear plugs out of her ears and gave me a little hug. "Thanks uhh-", she says. "Jalilah", I tell her. "Thanks Jalilah", she says with a smile.
"Yeah you're welcome. I think your mom wants you", Dulamah says. She looks at him then she reels her hand back and slaps him. I gasp in shock. Dulamah hold his face from the hard slap and the little girl Sierra had an apologetic look on her face.
"I'm sorry", she says trying to stroke his cheek. Dulamah pushes her hands away. "I'm fine", he tells her. "You're so cute", she tells Dulamah while stroking his hair. "Thank you", he tells her. She looks at him with a smile. "Can I kiss you?", she asks. "Sierra go to you momma for I drag you to her", I tell the little girl. Dulamah gives a small chuckle then he replies to Sierra.
"Didn't your mother ever teach you not to talk to strangers?", he asked. "Yup, but you're not a stranger. You're my new boyfriend", she says. Dulamah raises an eyebrow. "I think your mom wants you Sierra", I tell the little girl.
A woman walks over as we sit on the plane and takes Sierra away. "Finally", I mutter to myself. That little girl was too much.
