Leap Of Faith

chapter 7

"Nawal" He sobbed, and I quickly pulled him inside the house.

"What's wrong?" I asked and he just pulled me in for a hug. Making butterflies erupt in my stomach.

"I-" He started but I cut him off.

"Come on...let's go to my room" I signaled to the rest and they nodded, understanding and I pulled him to my room.

"What's wrong yazeed?" I asked him, trying to make sure my voice didn't crack. Something about him sad also made me sad.

Why he chose to come and see me during this hard time, I didn't know.

"Camilla...she..she...cheated" He said, bitterly.

Oh no He found out

"I'm sorry yazeed..." I said, pulling him for a hug as I rubbed his wet hair.

I didn't care if it was wet.

"I love her..... I loved her and....she just...she just...with my own brother" He said the last part silently.

I knew he looked familiar.

This is really awkward for me because:

1) I've never gone through a break up. Ever.

2) I've never seen a guy this sad...or even cry...what could make him feel better?

3) why would he come to me? We met just recently but then again. I know we've had a connection since the beginning.

4) it hurts to listen to how much he loves and loved her.

I sat us down on my bed, and he hugged my waist placing his head on my lap.

Butterflies.

I wanted to ask him why he had come to me but I didn't want to seem rude. I just sat there playing with his hair as he blabbers about her.

Can u believe they dated for 2 years?

He stopped talking for a few minutes and I lifted his head up a little and saw that he was asleep.

Awww

I smiled at his cuteness and raised him gently from my lap and layer him down on my bed. I raised the comforter over him and left the room to go hang out with the rest.

my mind was somewhere else through out the night, i kept thinking of him and the image of him sad and miserable made my heart fall.

Why do I care so much about him?

I woke up to the sun reflecting on my left eye. Great now that I'm awake I can't sleep back. I checked the time on my phone.

7:09 am

Still so early. I got up from the couch to see everybody still sleeping on the floor. I quickly got up and went to the bathroom in Yasmeens room to brush my teeth and hair.

There's no way I'm walking into my room with my rat nest hair and bed head. I don't want to scare yazeed to death.

After I was done, I did my morning prayer and went to my room to check on yazeed. He was also asleep.

Still looking cute as hell.

I suddenly felt the urge to play with his hair like I did yesterday. It was just so smooth, curly and silky.

My body suddenly took control of itself and I found my self sitted at the edge, next to him, carefully trying not to wake him up. i placed my hand on his hair, he began to stirr.
