Nuaimat
Today after a hectic hour of basketball practice, the school closed, i, Susan and Muayad were coming out through the gate, i looked tired i know, and i had some ice in a nylon to my forehead, during practice one of the senior girls threw the ball thrice to my forehead, and i ended up have the nose bleeds, "seriously why won't you report her to the coach" complained Susan, "what good will it do" i said as i removed the nylon from my forehead a bit and then place it back,
"She made you have the bleeds, she may have cracked your skull" Susan complained, "it was just a ball" i said adamantly,
"Not just a ball biggie, a basketball, if that girl has a problem with her boyfriend tailing you then let her settle it with him not this" snapped Muayad,
"Talking of her boyfriend here comes the guy" said Susan with a scowl and we all looked up to see the well known Fahad Ghali, the school assistant headboy, and by his side was Mufeedah, "what happened" he asked now admist the loud chatters of other students, drivers, parents e.t.c, "what happened, hear the guy, okey first lets say your girlfriend, yeah the one with the hump on the neck, a nose like a snout, eyes like chips and voice like a hippo,yeah her, she hit her with the basketball not once, not twice but thrice, thrice, three times, 1,2,3, T.H.R.E.E, three times, she even had the bleeds, assistant headboy" snapped Susan making gestures, well trust Susan always the dramatic lady, i rolled my eyes to surpress a chuckle
"Calm down Sus, he doesn't know she will do that" said Mufeedah, "oh but now you know what the fool is capable of doing, so stop hitting on my friend cause i don't want her to get a cracked skull, as much as i hate to not keep my driver waiting, i will have to leave this instant" with those words, Susan hissed and headed to the black land cruiser waiting for her,
"Aima, am sorry, i never knew Ladeefat could be this rough" said Fahad calmly, " not that i care about your girlfriend but please Fahad stop sending me gifts and cards, it makes her jealous, i wouldn't like that too, not that i will go around hitting the girl with stuffs, but i will be jealous" i said Calmly, i was calm because Fahad is a quiet cool guy, who is always calm and quiet, he is nice to me even infront of his girlfriend,"But Nuaimat, i really like you......... but his voice was drowned by the sound of a hooting car which i knew so well, it was Abbah's Maserati levante, i turned and saw the shinny silver car which has captured lots of attention from students, parents and lots more, "do you" asked Muayad, "does he tell when he appears, no" i said and then turned to the rest "excuse me" i said and headed straight to the car, i opened the passenger's front door and entered closing the door right after, and that is it, i get to be the topic of discussion tomorrow, but it's a normal thing, not that i like or enjoy it, but what am i to do, absolutely nothing,
Abbah was all moody and stuff, "what" i asked, "got suspended today" he said through teeths, i wasn't at all shocked nor surprise, it's a normal thing for Abbah, i let out a sigh and asked "what did you do"
"Car race, school premises" he said,
"I pray it's a two month suspension" i said with a smirk, Abbah's was mouth agape, "Father is back at home and you pray i get two months suspension" he asked,
"Hell yeah, what were you thinking, car racing with other stupid ones like you on the school premises, do you have any idea how dangerous that can be, there are other kids in that school, just because you own some percentage of that school that doesn't make you want to run over and kill other kids" i stated all this angrily, Abbah eyed me and then hissed, "if you hiss again, i will spank that lips of yours" i snapped, he gave me another wearily look and looked away, we sat quiet for some seconds as i watch other students get picked up by their parents or drivers, "it is just for a month" he finally said with a sigh, i ignored him, and he said again, "i swear the coast was clear before we started it", "it doesn't matter, it's inside the school, you wouldn't know which of the students will be lurking around Abbah" i said still not looking at him, "am sorry" he said calmly, "its of no use to me, am sure you didn't care to tell the teachers nor anyone there, our driver is here" i said as our rusty Sienna arrived with Asad and Khairiyah, Muayad was already waving his hand at me and motioning to the already approached car, i meant to open the door, when Abbah pulled me back and said "am taking you home" and before i protest he was already reversing, and in the process signalled to Muayad with his fingers through the glass and then drove off.
