06 Lost

Is it too late now to say sorry.
Cause I'm missing more than just your body.
Is it too late now to say sorry.
Girl I know-o-o that I let you down.
Is it too late to say sorry now.

**Amal's P.O.V**

I served my self a little of the rice before putting the the kidney sauce just my favourite and poured some water in my cup before finally turning to face "him".

And my heart skipped a bit.

I then turned to look at Salim but was met with two pears of cold brown eyes. He was staring at me intensely which made me scared. His eyes held some cold emotion that made cold shivers run down my body but we still didn't break our gaze. I was lost in his eyes. It held some kind of emotion I couldn't read.

I broke the stare looking down shyly as I realized what we just did making him come back to his senses too.

I took a quick glance at everyone and I sighed in relieved seeing know one noticed. I turned to Aisha and she was giving me her knowing look. Oh this girl she never misses anything. I smiled innocently at her which she returned with a smirk before going back to my food.

After dinner I, Aisha and Fatiyyah headed upstairs to Fatiyyah's room to pray isha while the men went to the mosque.

"This is the bathroom you can shower if you want" she said.

"Yeah I was just thinking of doing that" I replied sarcastically.

"Will you just get in and perform your wudhu and stop talking nonsense". That was Aisha.

"Hey I wasn't talking nonsense"I defended.

"Yes you were" she replied.

"No I wasn't".

And that was how we started our usual argument which was stopped by Fatiyyah.

"Hey guys stop, that's not a topic to argue on, really you are all wasting your time arguing like five year old kids. You should go and pray before they all come back from the mosque" said Fatiyyah making us turn to her.

"Did you just call us kids?" Aisha asked with her hands akimbo.

"Nope" Fatiyyah replied sarcastically popping the 'p'.

"Better, pray and let's do something fun like 20 questions to get to know each other better before they come back." She said pushing me towards the bathroom.

Aisha and Fatiyyah didn't pray as it was their time of the month so I was the odd one out. After praying we played 20 questions and chatted teasing me at some point before Abba announced it was time to leave.

They all escorted us out and we said our goodbyes before leaving.

Their house was really fun and now I have a new friend. Did I tell you that we go to the same university, yeah Fatiyyah goes to BUK, faculty of law, but it's miraculous that we've never met even in the hostel or the shops when they come for some lectures at old site.

It was already 11pm when I entered my room so l just changed to my comfy pajamas with a turban cap before rocking the bed and was driven to la..la...land.

*************

I creased my eyes shut when the light rays of the sun entering the room from the peak of the curtains hit my eyes jolting me awake.

I stood up and did my morning routine before putting on my red and black Ankara gown with a black veil, black flats and my black LV bag. Putting my phone and car key in the bag, I sprayed my perfume and took my books before dashing out of the room.
