Nuaimat
I have accepted my faith, Zaid will never love me, maybe my love life lies with Uzair, so i decided to give my heart a break and wait for Uzair to propose, after all i owe him for saving my life, and now that's my life trying to love someone because i owe him,
I just wish my life will take another turn.
Uzair asked me out for a date, he didnt directly said it was a date but i knew thats what he meant i just had to accept and our date will be in the fifth day, so the two of us get to abscond the fifth day event and go out for the date, only Zohr knew about it, i just couldn't help but notice she wasn't happy about it, but hello am the one going for the date here i should be the one with that long face,
The next day when i dressed up for the outing which will start in the morning around 11:30, Zohra pretended to be asleep as i dressed up, i tried looking fit for the occasion and i did a good job in terms of my clothing, Uzair and i met in the parking lodge and the two of us soon hit the road,
First he drove us to an eatery where we had breakfast, it was nice and quiet, then he drove us to this afternoon movie in the cinema, i tried my best to concentrate but my mind wasn't just set there, i kept on drifting away, i just hope he didn't notice,
After the movie, he drove us straight to an ice cream shop, there i had the worst icecream ever, but i just didn't complain, Uzair kept on trying to please and impress me, he was trying so hard, i pity him cause all what he is doing isn't just in my intrest,
I kept on checking for the time, he noticed and asked me, i had no answer to give him so i just smile and said "just a hobby", he nodded with a smile on his face,
Zaid
I was combing my hair that morning when Ubayd came in, "they are out for a date" he said, i turned to him with a confused expression and asked "who"
"Ubayd and Nuaimat" he answered and then what,i felt my heart was getting squeezed, i felt my head getting heavy, i felt my airways blocked and then i started hearing voices, "Zaid, Zaid can you hear me"
"Who told you" i asked now panting, "Zohra, i met her during breakfast" he answered,
I sat down on the bed side, "just give u........"i will not give up" i yelled interrupting Ubayd,
My eyes were now red due to anger, " i love her" i yelled,
"Then, whats keeping you from telling her" he yelled and added "ego, or weakness"
"She won't love me" i said calmly and the tears that have being threatining to fall ran down my cheeks,
"You don't know that till you try, you just can't accept defeat till you try" he said
"How will i tell her, when her and Uzair are like that" i asked
"Just tell her today when she comes back, before you end up hurting yourself" he said calmly, i sighed but i just couldn't get the image of the two out of my head.
When the show started i wasn't intrested at all but i kept on checking the main entrance for any sign of Nuaimat,
I was still that way when Zohra came up to me, i didn't even notice her till she nudged me, "not yet back" she said,
"Yeah, she is not,.....wait who" i was taken aback, she chuckled and said "you know who am talking about, its Nuaimat" she said, i gave her a dry oh,"i think she is having a good time" She added, "I assure you, Uzair isn't that fun to be with especially a date, who says doctors are romantic" i said with Loath,
"You maybe right, but atleast he has the nerves to chase after what he wants, some won't just do it, maybe its the Ego, or Maybe they keep on fooling themselves that they are not after that thing, or maybe they have no nerves" she said, wait a minute is Zohra referring to me, i hope she isn't
