my stepsister (book2##)

Twenty Two

Marwa approached zarah in the dining room "tell me, how did you manage to befriend Zayed" Marwa asked

Zarah looked up to meet marwas eyes "what" she asked looking confused

Marwa sat on the chair next to zarah "with all his coldness, you see....."

" Marwa, what are you talking about "zarah asked looking straight into marwas eyes

" I went to his office this morning to meet Ahmad, and he was all arrogant. You see he hasn't even spared me a glance and when he did, I could swear I felt the world freezing for his cold glare. So tell me how? "

" well I don't know "zarah simply answered

" then consider yourself lucky "with that muna left

45 minutes ago

It was a bright morning, Marwa woke up to the sound of birds whirring, she stretched and yawned, and took a quick bath. She dressed up presently in a purple dress with a paired black veil. As she was applying eyeliner, and a message popped on her phone screen.

Meet me at venis--Ahmad

She took her keys and left for venis

,

"who are you" Zayed asked eyeing Marwa. "and how did you get in here" he added, "and with who's permission" he finished shooting sticks at her

"err.....Ahmad asked me to meet him here, so who are you to question me " she shot back

" I am Zayed "he stares daggers at her" and I am still Zayed "

OH shit, so this is the Zayed, Zayed Islam alfayeed the owner of this company, zarah's so called nice friend

" err..."

"hey you are here " Ahmad entered the office, which Marwa felt releived

" of course " she shot Zayed her best look with her well plastered smirk.

Present

" Marwan " zarah said appearing in the living room where Ammar, Jafar and Marwan are playing FIFA

" yes" he answered turning to look at her

"I want you to take me somewhere, the drivers are off"

"no way "he said, his eyes fixed on the TV while he manipulates the pad his holding.

" but ammar...."

"laa ma biddi (no I am not going)" he said not even caring to look at her as she was about to talk, the room echoed with a goal, and then she was annoyed. She turned to go as the voice of the person who has been silently watching spoke

"I'll be waiting outside " he spoke and left. She went to her room to get her bag not forgetting to apply eyeliner with a lipstick.

,

" so where are we going " Jafar asked and she told him the location. The ride to Kahwa is a 30 minutes ride, but it felt forever to reach their, the car was engulfed with an awkward silence, Jafars eyes fixed straight where as zarah played with her fingers nervously, cursing her dead phone silently, not even noticing that they have reached the place

Until he spoke.....

"we are here" zarah nodded as she entered the building, wondering why Jafar was behaving weirdly, with that thoughts, she pushed the large glass door.

She ordered her camomile tea, a weekly priority to visit Kahwa every Friday for her camomile.

"look who's here" she raised her head to see Zayed standing before her. "you haven't been coming lately"

She smiled at him as she uttered "yeah, I traveled to sharjah,"

"so how have you been" zarah asked, he was silent for a while, he opened his mouth to talk but interrupted with a call,

Amirahs name popped up

He ignored the call and shoved the phone in his pocket.

"who's Amirah" she blurted, and he smirked

"no need, shes no one " seeing how zarah shifted" oh don't worry she's my elder sister "he winked

She flushed" no i-i" she stuttered "wait did you just say sister"

"yeah" Zayed answered her.

"just suprised, provided you never mentioned about having a sister "

" well you didn't ask" he smiled. God his smile could melt someone right instance.

"so what of your parents, you never mentioned them too"

"no need "he said furrowing he's brows.

" but.... "

" you heard me loud and clear "he Zayed looking pissed.

Only, if he could always be angry

" am sorry, I have to go"

"it would be better if you leave "she felt hurt and so she left.

" let's leave" she said looking at Jafar who was using he's phone, he looked up, seconds of silence, he broke stare and shoved he's phone in his pocket and drove away.

As they reached home, she made up her mind to talk to him" why are you silent today "

Silence

He got out of the car, and she followed him.

" you didn't answer my question "

" I'll call you tonight"with that he left.

She went upstairs, took a left turn towards Munas, she took the three stairs that leads to Munas yellow living room, she took another left turn then she opened the door after knocking three time at the door.

Muna, Ramlah , Hannan and Marwa are seated watching The Voice on Marwas laptop.

"leave my room this instance " muna shouted at zarah which brought the attention of the other girls to her

" muna am sorry plea... "

" don't you dare add another word" muna stood up daring zarah

"what's the meaning of all this girls" Hanaan spoke standing up from where she was seating

"it's none of your business and out of your concern hanaan" muna shot back

Marwa closed her laptop as she stood up also saying "you guys are suppose to be the best sisters ever" she folded her arms, and spoke with furrow face "since when did you started this rubbish, this isn't you" she madly shouted at them" what's with you guys and your egos besides muna if truly zarah is willing to talk about it then let her, what's with you and being a double bag "Marwa finished in anger as Rambla silently watched

" muna" zarah started

"don't muna me, you bitch" muna glared at Marwa "you do not call this hypocrite my sister, she's not fucking blood of mine, not my biological sister will do what she has done to me" Munas words left daggering zarah in her heart, tears out of nowhere started cascading down her cheeks, as Ramla saw this fight us going somewhere she slowly went out of the room to call someone more sensitive.
