Chapter twelve
Ameera couldn't get over how she had tricked him so easily. Adham was just smiling at her in amusement as she kept on rambling about it in happiness. And suddenly she heard and felt the flash of the camera; he had captured her rambling with a smile and the sun falling on her red wavy hair. Ameera looked back at him to make sure she was the one being captured. When he smiled back at her she put both her hands on her face and hid her blush "Oh I didn't know you already started taking pictures" He just smiled "I'm always ready and I saw a view that's worth capturing" She ignored his complement. Ameera wasn't used to receiving complements and it wasn't easy for her to react to them.
"Show me" Ameera asked and came closer to inspect the picture.
"Wow you are a good photographer man" He had captured her side view with the smile stretching her face and her red hair contrasting with the green background and the sun reflected beautifully. In the background the twin towers appeared perfectly.
"Or you are a beautiful model" Adham answered awkwardly, combing his hands through his hair. He wasn't himself with her and that's making him nervous.
"No no you are so good" She smiled back at him.
"No, you go I have something to do." Adham already guessed that it has to do with her family and he just nodded. "Ok then" he shrugged "Take care of yourself." He smiled and before she could answer Adham entered the dorm building.

One hour later
Police station:
Ameera couldn't believe what was happening she was actually being asked as if she is a criminal. What was even more surprising was that Aidah was into drugs. Ameera was still in denial, but it couldn't be denied they found a kind of drug in her blood and when they searched her car and locker they found drugs. Ameera was still in shock she didn't even tear up.
She was just answering robotically, that's if she needed to answer at all in the end her lawyer was with her. And he had assured her that this was just a routinely action, they may not be suspicious about her. She didn't care. Ameera just wanted to return to her dorm. She doesn't want to see anyone. She doesn't want to talk to anyone.
Ameera blinked as the officer swayed his hand in front of her "Miss. Miss are you okay..." When she nodded he went on "We are finished here you can go" She nodded again robotically she swayed as she stood up. "Woah" the lawyer said as he tried to help her gain her balance. Ameera raised her hand slowly to stop him and balanced herself.
Exiting the door, she was surprised by Asser hugging her; Ameera pushed him immediately if he kept on hugging her she was sure she would cry and sob her hearts out. They had taken a blood sample from both siblings to make sure they weren't on anything themselves. "I want to go back to the college" she said emotionlessly. Asser just slumped his shoulders and nodded. They both walked back to Asser's new car.
Ten minutes later and they were at the college's gate. It was a very silent ride and it wasn't the good silent. Exiting the car, she entered the building without even acknowledging her brother. He totally understood her, but he can't see Ameera like this he just can't. He has to fix this he will meet her tomorrow after this shock.
