Nawal is a sixteen year old who moves to the rich city of Dubai. She's not the type of girl to go to parties and do crazy things. But all that changes when she moves into Dubai and meets Yazeed alhassan.
Follow nawal as she takes a leap of faith
It was a normal boring day after lectures, and I was walking to the lot where Ameera had parked the car, to wait for her so we could leave.
As I reached the lot, I immediately spotted the car as it was the only white one among a row of black and maroon cars.I walked towards it and then I spotted red hair a few cars behind me through the side view mirror.
Camilla
She was making out with a guy but I couldn't see his face and no it wasn't yazeed because this guy had jet black hair. I quickly turned around to check if she was really there or it was my jealous mind playing games with me but no I was right.
Wow
I just stare at them with wide eyes.
"Hey fool!" Yasmeen greeted, as she opens the car and gets in and I get in after her.
"What were you looking at?" She asked, as she turned her head around looking for anything that might have caught my attention.
"Nothing...just thinking" I said to her casually, hoping she would buy it and she did. She turned on the music to our favourite song, for now.
Even though we never had a penny, Yeah we always had spirit They can burn my flesh But they can't touch my spirit
We sang along, as she drove crazily to our new apartment. Yasmeen couldn't stop complaining to her dad about our old one, so he decided to buy us a new apartment.

Yasmeen and I were getting ready for our movie night which we normally do every Friday night. It was like our tradition back in Nigeria.
She made the popcorn as I got the blankets and fluffy pillows. We planned on watching suicide squad with some of our friends, well Yasmeens friends.
Ding dong
I dropped the pillows on the couch and went to open the door for our guests but instead of them. It was yazeed? No this guy looked older than him and he had some Arabian thingy wrapped on his head, with beard and a serious look.
"Uh..can I help you?" I asked him.
"Yasmeen...right?" He asked, with a blank expression and I shook my head.
"No...I'm her roommate-" he cut me off.
"Oh..well um Harini said I should drop this off for her, she left it at our house the other day"

"Here" He handed me a purse and turned around to leave, but I stopped him. He looked really familiar from the back, with his curly dark hair sticking out.
"Um..you look familiar" i said to him.
"You don't know me and I don't know you"
And with that he left.
Rude
I just rolled my eyes and shut the door.I walked over to the kitchen where Yasmeen was.
"Here someone dropped this off for you" I said, handing her the purse and grabbing a chocolate cupcake.
Yum
"Harini?" She asked, snatching the cake from me and placing it back on a tray with the rest.
"Nah..a guy" I told her, as I looked back at the cupcake with a pout
"Yazeed?" She asked, placing the cupcakes far away from my reach.
"No" I said again and then she froze.
"Omg" She said, her mouth opened wide.
What?" I asked, taking a handful of gummy bears that were kept on the kitchen counter.
"Anwar?" She asked, eyes widened with curiosity.
"I don't know his name" I rolled my eyes in annoyance.
"This guy?" She asked, showing me a pic of the guy who was here earlier, on instagram. My eyes roam around the picture and stopped suddenly when I saw the username.
Anwar alhassan.
Oml
"Is he...?" I began."Yazeeds older brother? Yes" she finished for me.
"Wow.." I said, surprised. "Are they all that good looking?" I asked and she gushed "I know right!"
No wonder they looked so familiar but he so different from yazeed. Yazeed is sweet, nice, cute and really friendly, but Anwar looks arrogang with a serious look, but also handsome as hell. I guess it runs in their blood.
"I thought you said yazeed is the heir of the alhassan enterprises? How comes he has an older brother w-" I was suddenly cut off by the door bell.
"Oo they must be here " She said, squealing and forgetting we were ever having a conversation. She ran towards the door and opened it. I heard squealing and giggles. I just sat on the counter thinking.
Yazeed has an older brother? Camilla is cheating on yazeed?
I was interrupted from my thoughts by Yasmeen yelling.
"Nawaaaaaaal the movies about to start bring the snacks oh and I forgot order the pizza"
"Kay" I yelled back, getting of the counter and grabbing my phone to order.

"Boring.. let's watch something else" Radek, one of my newly made friends said.
"I know right...this isn't what I expected, like the trailer looked so lit" Daniel said, disappointed.
"Damn...why do you guys only have a collection of horror movies?" Harini asked, as she searched through cds.
Harini is yazeed and anwars sister.
"Nawal is addicted" Yasmeen shrugged, taking a bite out of her pizza.
Okay don't judge me. I have this crazy obsse- interest in horror movies. I get scared alot but that's what makes it fun and interesting even though I end up sleeping with my mom or dad or Yasmeen.
"Love them" I said.
"Oo let's watch insidious" Hamna said, removing the cd from its pack.
"Yeah"
"Sure"
"Okay"
Everybody murmured.
"You aren't sleeping in my room tonight, naw" Yasmeen said, as he got comfortable on the couch.
I actually haven't watched this yet. I covered myself with my fluffy blanket as the movie began.
●●●●●●●●●●
"Ahhhhhhhh"
Me, yasmeen, zaynab and Hamna screamed together as thunder struck. Don't ever watch a movie when there's a storm y'all. Someone suddenly knocked, making all 7 of us scream.
The knocking continued and I decided to open the door. I went towards the door slowly as if in a horror movie.
I swear I can hear the music play.
I slowly reach for the handle and opened it, revealing a wet and shivering yazeed in tears.
