God! I'm always losing my temper because of him. He irritates me like no other. Although People do say that's a sign of everlasting love, but whatever.

This tahajud tonight was to find peace with Jafir.
Allahuma.....awwwww my tummy grumbled I needed to eat something.
I rounded up my prayers thinking of what to satisfy this hunger.
Then I looked through my window. I had guards, for a second I thought it was a dream. Then I realized they were Jafir's guards and his cars were still in my yard.
With the rage in me I rushed downstairs having a slight hope that he wasn't passing a night here and there was a better explanation.
Where is Zafir? I thought going back upstairs to check on him. He was missing. I could almost scream.

I just had to control myself and not raise a false alarm searching every where in the house. They really did pass a night here. But I hadn't seen Jafir.

Shhhh.....don't cry, hush I heard a voice coming from the verandah. I walked slowly then opened the door.
Aaaaaahhh! He screamed waking Zafir, what are you doing here go back to bed, he said.
Get.....the hell.....out of my house! I yelled. I can't, he said.
What are you talking about? I asked.
Government orders, he said.
You are the government! I screamed waking Zafir
(Baby cries)
Sorry my love we whispered together. Looking up and staring at each other. Touched by the compatonate love we shared for Zafir. And the one I had for him. Then he gasped, I should show you proof he suggested.

Hmmm.......this is my proof he said showing me the news as we entered the living room.
Okay, I said. Do you want to carry him? He asked.
No, I replied have your father-son moments, I said replying messages on my phone.
Yasmine let's go talk outside he suggested.
Zafir will be too cold, I said. He is not even showing signs of falling as sleep any time soon.
Okay then let's talk, here he said sitting really close to me.
My pouncing heart was forced to stay calm. I was indoors and warm yet I had a palm as cold as ice.

Jafir's POV
It was really nice talking to Yasmine with out any arguments it's been so long, I figured I knew what that tattoo stuff was all about so I hatched up a plan.
Yasmine I'm equal.
What, I don't understand, she said.
My upper body is equal to my lower I explained.
Hmmmm.....so is mine, she said. No, I disagreed.
It is she said. Okay let me show you.
She tried bending her upper body to equally match her lower body.

It worked her shirt went down with her and I saw it. It was my name written in italics and it was henna. God the smile on my face was uncontrollably.
See she said, standing upright again.
Why are you looking at me like that? she asked.
Nothing....how??? I asked.
Why are you smiling? She asked.
Wow! I said cheering really hard for her you really are equal.
She was still clueless and confused. So she just continued binging.

The outing......
Zayad and malik were already waiting to meet up with us.
Ohhhhh......my, Jasmine you look.... oh yeah! Everyone cheered.
