My Diary (17)

The week passed by with Maya next to 5aled's side. She never let him out of her sight, she was always there taking care of him while his parents were still out of the country.
They sat, they talked, laughed, ate, had a nice time. Maya forgot all about the pain she felt when she thought she was losing him. He made it all go away.
"hello" said the dr. coming to check on 5aled, "how r u doing today?"
"fine thanks" said 5aled with a smile on his face
the dr. smiled at Maya, and she smiled back, blushing a little, sensing that the dr. sensed something between them.
"u look good today, we'll let u go tomorrow morning" said the dr. with a wink
"REALLY?" Maya jumped in, she was dying for him to leave the hospital.
"yes.." smiled the dr.
"thank god!" said 5aled with a big smile, looking at Maya, while the dr. found his way out.
"did u hear that??" Maya went over to kiss the top of 5aled's head
"yes i did ya b3d galby" he said as looked at her in the eyes, seeing his future.

The next day
Maya got up early that morning, rushed to the bathroom, took a shower, and changed her clothes into fresh new ones, put on some light make up, put a hairband on her hair, and left the house, dialling Lulwa's number
"heeeyyyy" Maya said before Lulwa could even say hello
"hii" Lulwa said in a tired voice
"oh shit u're sleeping... i'm so sorry! i just wanted to tell u... 5aled's getting out of the hospital today, i'm really happy lulu, and sorry i haven't seen u around for long, i've just been so busy with him u know.." Maya felt happy, but guitly at the same time for ditching her friend... 'well, she understands' figured Maya
"its okaaay hun! u go get ur man, and call me when u're done, dont worry about anything, luv u" Lulwa said, making her friend feel better
"luv u too! byee"

Maya reached the hospital as she realized she didn't have anything for breakfast. She got out of the car, and literally ran to 5aled's room. She froze for a second... 'where is he?!' she thought.
His bed was neat and clean, his things were gone, he was gone.. no sign of him.
Maya made her way to the door, confused...
"where are u going pretty girl" his voice shot across the room, as he was walking out of the bathroom fully dressed, wearing jeans and a black Armani t-shirt.
Maya turned quickly and ran over to hug him
"wooow..calm down there" 5aled said, laughing swooping her up
"3baaly re7t 3any" Maya said with a shy smile
"ana aroo7 3anich? ana aroo7 3an 7abeebat galby?" he said looking at her, kissing her cheek
Maya couldn't stop smiling, her lips were smiling, her eyes were smiling, her heart was smiling, and her soul was smiling.
She felt safe, she felt at home, she knew now and then, that 5aled was the one.
"did u have breakfast?" 5aled asked, hoping she would say no so he could have breakfast with her
"no" Maya was still smiling
"then lets go have breakfast" he said as he took her hand and lead the way.
As much as she wanted to keep holding his hand, Maya knew it was wrong, so she slipped her hand away from his and kept walking, he noticed, but didn't say anything, he wanted her to be herself, plus, he liked that she cared about what's right and wrong.
They sat at the cafeteria of the hospital, oreder cheese sandwiches and milk tea, and sat on a small circle table.
They sat facing each other, eating small bites, and looking at each other in between, and smiling.
"Maya" 5aled's voice was deep, "inty t7ibeeny?"
Maya blushed at the question, she did love him but it was hard for her to say it to him because she never said i love you before, she was never in love actually, 5aled was her first, and hopefully her last. So she just nodded instead, avoiding his gaze.
5aled knew this was too much for her, he wanted her to look at him in his eyes and say it, but he just let it go, he knew the time was coming. Soon.
"ana a7ibich, oo 7abaitech min awal ma shiftech" he looked straight into her eyes, making her blush, as he remembered the first time she blushed in front of him at the restaurant. He wanted more memories, he wanted more. He wanted a future with her, he wanted his whole life with her by his side, just like the previous days at the hospital.
He was just about to say something when he saw her. His ex. Tahani.
Maya saw him staring, so she turend to look at what he was looking at, and to her extreme shock, she saw Tahani, her so-called friend whom she took her fiance away from her. At the sight of Tahani, Maya felt sick and nautious and disgusted with her self, and then the rush of mixed emotions from the past hard days, and Tahani and everything flew through her body like a huge flow of waves. She wanted to get up, go back, erase what's happening. The only thing that kept her at her place was the feeling she felt towards 5aled, just a glimpse of what she felt during the days when he was unconscious was enough to let her fight for 5aled, even if it meant losing Tahani.
"Maya?" Tahani said, looking confused
"hii Tahani" Maya mumbled in a low voice
"what is she doing here?" Tahani asked 5aled, prepared for a fight
"she was here with me, she's taking care of me, 'why do you care about her, we're not a couple anymore!' 5aled wanted to add 'she had to understand that' 5aled thought
"oh" Tahani said dumbstruck, "i was just here to see you, i just heard about the accident, but it seems you're okay.. madarait i've been replaced" Tahani shot a look of rage at Maya, and left.
"don't worry" 5aled whispered when Tahani was clearly gone.. "she has no right to do that"
"yaa" Maya said softly, thinking about what just happend
"you know that we only started when Tahani and i were done, right?" 5aled asked, trying to eas Maya's frustration
"yes, but.."
"and u do know that me and Tahani were never right for each other, right?" 5aled interrupted
"yes, and.." Maya tried to finish, but 5aled interrupted her again
"so then why all the frustration 7abeebty, 5ala9 e7na we're in love, let her accept that. Everything is hard at first to adjust to.." 5aled said in a soft tone that eased Maya's mind.
"ya u're right.." Maya thought about it..

Maya spent the day with Lulwa, after having breakfast with 5aled. He went home to rest. Every few hours Maya would call him and ask if he was okay or if he needed anything...
He said he liked hearing her voice, and was glad they were working it out...
He had a feeling Maya was it.
And she had a feeling 5aled was her first and last.

Later that night, when Maya got ready for bed, she tought about what 5aled said, and she agreed with him.. 'it's not like i stole him from her, we're not kids anymore.. he was the one who left her..i'm sorry for her, i honestly am, but what else can i do.. they weren't right for each other.. what was i supposed to do? and how could i control my feelings?...his feelings??...
This all happend when they were over..when he broke up with her, and i still tried avoiding him... til when am i going to kill my feelings and happiness for others...' Maya thought to herself, and went to sleep thinking of 5aled.

She woke up the next morning with a huge smile on her face...
little did she know what was about to come from her so called "friend".
