my stepsister (book2##)

Forty

At 10 in the morning, Amira has already clothed herself and eaten as she is well prepared to accomplish whatever it is that she had planned to do. She sat impatiently on the window seat waiting for a call. She finally rested her head on a big grey pillow and closed her eyes thinking about her family

"Amira!!"

Amira sat up abruptly "Ya Allah Ahmad do you have to shout so loudly " she held her head as if aching her

"I've been calling out your name for god knows how many times and you haven't been answering" he sat beside her "what are you doing here? You look so prepared for something? Are you going somewhere?" He asked

"One question at a time, but first what are you doing here at this time Ahmad?" Amira asked

He stood up and adjusted his white jalbab "I told you I would come, so I decided to have breakfast here with you guys ,where's that douche of a brother? God I'm feeling hot"

"He's still sleeping I guess, he came back late last night" she answered him

Ahmad chuckled "totally unlikely, Zayed cannot be sleeping now, that's..."

"Outrageous" Zayed said descending the stairs looking clean "who do we have here" Zayed smiled at Ahmad

"Only myself" Ahmad smile back

Zayed smirked "couldn't keep the long distance huh" he said and Amira laughed as Ahmad rolled his eyes

" well here I am" Ahmad said letting out as Zayed took a seat facing them. He looked at Ahmad and paused, analyzing him

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Ahmad asked with furrowed brows

Zayed turned and looked at Amira "O my God" Amira raised a brow in question as Zayed let out a mischievous laughter "Ahmad hasn't washed himself up maybe yet" as he continued to laugh

Ahmad widened his eyes "wait what, okay maybe I didn't but I haven't eaten and it's not like......."

Blah blah blah, Amira smiled watching how Ahmad is trying to defend himself and Zayed laughing ,the brothers are back to themselves Alhamdulillah

"It looks like everyone's in a good mood today" Layla said smiling as she moved towards them with a tucker-bag " oh I'm sorry, daqqatu albaba (I knocked the door) and I waited enough so I let myself in"

"It's okay" Ahmad said ,he was actually the only one who looked at her. Zayed was backing her and he didn't turn to look at her but for Amira she just decided not to look at her because she doesn't like the girl provided she'd be adding more trouble to her plan

"Thanks, so um..Zayed?" He turned to face her "yess" he forced a smile, "I thought we should eat breakfast together like before, so I brought this" she said raising her tucker-bag.

"Food" Ahmad snatched the bag from her and peeped inside, he picked two sandwiches from the bag and grinned "I'll make coffee and make myself comfortable in your room Zayed, I know mine is dusty and all" He smiled gratefully at Layla who just smiled back at him and winked at Zayed, he started ascending the stairs as he turned "and Zayed, I forgot to bring my clothes with me, that your new grey jalbab will do, thank you"

"Ahmad" Zayed started with gritted teeth "don't use my coffeemaker, don't use my bathroom, and don't touch my clothes" he said a little louder for him to hear him clearly from where he is

Ahmad turned "asif, shu qult" Ahmad changed his tongue asking Zayed of what he had said. Ahmad didn't wait for answer of course but continued ascending the stairs but a little bit faster this time
