your guardian angel [ 16 ]

3eesa was very eager to hear her response , he moved his head a little closer and his eyes were glued to hers

Say it , he thought

She looked at him and shivers moved up her spine , she bit her lip and opened her mouth to say what was making her heart pound so hard but she closed it again and looked down , should I tell him ??

" I was scared that he would hurt you if he knew we're .. we're even friends .. he's crazy .. "

COWARD ! , she thought to herself

3eesa pressed on his lips harder , looked down and moved away to sit straight on the chair

" He has no right to .. he cant hurt you while am here.. but when am gone Raseel , I swear to god if he … " He closed his eyes tighter , and let out a sigh

" I don’t want you to get hurt , do that for me will you ? , just go to your uncle's house"

" Fine.. " , and 3eesa's face lit up

" Thank you " he brushed her hand with his finger

She opened her mouth once again so she could tell him , she didn’t want him to leave , she was getting attached to him more and more and she didn’t want to let go

" When will you be back ? " she asked

" I don’t know it depends , a month or two.." she could tell that he wasn’t happy about this either

" Come , I want to show you something .." after he paid he took her hand and led her to the car

" Where are we going ? " she asked excitedly , she loved surprises

" You'll see .." he gave her a wink

Okay , so you already KILLED me by telling me you're going away now this ? , he was so gorgeous that she felt like she wanted to jump and eat him up ! , and now im being scary

She could see that they were approaching the beach , but she didn’t exactly know what the surprise was , 3eesa parked the car and opened the door for her


From afar she saw some people holding kites , you know the HUGE type that you can hold on to whenever the wind is strong enough


" What's this ? " she grinned , she never tried something like this before , or seen it up close

" Come with me .." He held her hand , a little too tight than a friend should but she loved it , she couldn’t deny that there was something going on .. some sort of feeling .. he must feel .. but never dared to really make sure

They approached a young man with nice hair , he was well built and had amazing skin texture very similar to 3eesa's , Raseel didn’t see his face though

" Ya3goub ! " 3eesa shouted in his beautiful masculine tone

The guy turned around and smiled , he had a nice wide smile , it showed that he had great personality

" Hala 3wais ! , hala bil 7abeeeeeeb " he handed his kite to one of the guys standing there and quickly came towards them

" Il salam 3laikom , " He greeted shyly

" Wa3alaykom il salam .." Raseel answered smiling

" You must be Raseel " he said

" Yes I am .."

" Wow .." he said nodding his head , 3eesa punched him on the arm "Uhh ! I mean wow the weather right !!? perfect .. nice to meet you .."

" Nice to meet you too ," Raseel giggled

" We want to give it a try .." 3eesa told him

" Oh sure .. sure .. come on ! " He went straight and they followed

" But be careful , its very tricky and it needs strength " he warned


3eesa took the kite from his hand , and walked backwards to where Raseel was standing , there were a few people standing being busy with their own kites , 3eesa moved away just a little bit so he and Raseel can have privacy

" Ta3alay , " He said after he settled the kite in his own hands , it looked so pretty moving in the air and 3eesa made it look effortless

She moved towards him shyly , he held out his hand for her to hold

He took it and placed it on the handle " No 3eesa a5af ! , its heavy .."

" Give me your other hand "

Raseel wasn’t sure , but she did it anyway " 3eesaaaa …" her face was worried

" Kany wagef Shfeech 5ayfa ! "

" Madree wala marra jarrabt "

" Now you well " he smiled at her

" Promise you wont let go "

He made her stand in front of him holding the kite and his hands held it with her so her delicate hands wont slip " Promise.." he said into her ears ,his voice was almost a whisper now

This time he was also standing too close , but Raseel didn’t feel awkward or scared or uncomfortable .. it was just right..

He was leaving her soon and she wanted to treasure these few moments they have left 3eesa was completely respectful and a gentleman , he made the whole thing easy and natural , the situation was very innocent and 3eesa knew his boundaries and respected them very much

" This .. its amazing …" Her voice was a little shaky

" You're scared ? " he told her almost giggling

" No ! " she tightened her grip on the handle and he laughed " Okay.. okay I believe you .., so you never tried this before huh ?"

" No.. and am glad I did … thank you 3eesa "

" You're welcome , that’s one .."

" One what ? "

" Oh I decided am going to count every thank you from now on , it seems to be your favorite word especially when you're around me"

" Well you do nice things when you're around me too ! you deserve it .."

" And you deserve it too .." Raseel couldn’t see but she can tell he was smiling , she felt his warm breath on her hair , her neck ..

She wished that he wouldn’t move so she wouldn’t feel the cold wind again

Her eyes noticed his hands , his hurt hands , she almost cried .. All because of me ..


" Hey.. " He said into her ears again " Stop looking at my hands am fiiiiine ..."

Time passed quickly and soon it was time for lunch

" So.. do you have to go home or ..? " 3eesa didn’t want her to go .. he wanted to spend every minute of every day he has left with her

" Um .. actually no .. am pretty much free.." Raseel was surprised at how free she was when the nursery had a holiday

" Are you in the mood for lunch ? " he asked

" Sure , but where ?"

" Well , am sure you got fed up from all the junk food .. so I was thinking.. do you want to come over my house ? "

" 3eesa no .. what will your parents say ? .. " she looked down

" First of all .. my parents ADORE you , second of all my mom wanted to have you over so she can thank you for coming with me to pick Rawa2's costume.. so this is a perfect time.." he winked

His parents were very nice people , but they were also traditional .. pretty much like Raseel's parents , they knew 3eesa and Raseel were some sort of friends but they wouldn’t exactly approve of them hanging out a lot outside..

" 3eesa I don’t know "

" Wallah kanaw gayleen a3zemech , "

She looked at him for a second , who could say no to that face ?

" Fine ," she blurted out

He grinned and took the kite from her hands and gave it to Ya3goub

" Ha re7taw? , yalla allah weyakom.. 3asa bas estanastay Raseel ?"

" Yes very much thank you Ya3goub .."

" You're more than welcome Raseel , again .. nice to see you "

" You too "

Raseel and 3eesa walked slowly along the shore and then made their way to the car

" It was a very nice surprise " Raseel told 3eesa when they got into the car

" Well am glad you liked it , I'll drop you off to your car and then you go change if you want to and come home ? "

" That'll be great "

" Okay then "


3eesaa dropped her off to her car and followed her home , to make sure there are no disturbances with Msa3ad and then went home

" Yumaa ? " he walked into the living room

" Hala 7beebee !? , ta3al ana bil ma6ba5 "

" Shloonich yal '3alya ? " he kissed his mom's cheek

" 7mdelah 7beebee , "

" Ha shno il '3ada? "

" M6abbag zbaidee "

" Yah yah , a7la shay mn eed el walda 3ad ! ya36eech il 3afya .. "

" Y3afeek 7beebee "

" Yuma il yoom 3ezamt Raseel 3al '3ada .."

" Ee 7ayaha allah yumma ana mn ams gam agoolik ! , hathy il sa3a el mbareka , meta betyeebha ? "

" Ayeebha ? " he was very happy to , but he wanted to play dumb

" Ee yumma b3d 3aib yimkin tet2a5ar 3endena b3d mayseer bnya broo7ha , mo gilt ahalha msafreen ? "

" Ee 5alas la t7ateen yuma ana ray7 foog abaddil .."

" Ee zain bas mo tet2a5ar 3ala bnt el nas ! "

He laughed

He was almost skipping up the stairs with a happy wide grin

" Yah yah yah .. shal wanasa ele nazlaa 3laaik yuba .. enshallah doom ! shely mwansek chthy ? " his dad called out from the upstairs living room holdng Rawa2 in his lap


" Yuba Raseel betyeee 3al '3ada "

" Ee 7ayaha allah yuba , zain ennik 3ezamt'ha il yoom omik msawya 5ooosh '3ada .."

His grin was wider than before " Yalla 3n ethnik yuba ana rayi7 abadel "

His father smiled , they say like father like son and 3eesa's father felt like his son had something on his mind .. maybe something in his heart as well


" Ana bayeee ! " Rawa2 got up from her dad's lap and went to 3eesa

" Wain tyeen enty ! babadel "

" An6ew .. " She looked at him raising her eyebrows in the cutest little way

" Ehheh yalla lmn agoolich deshay deshay ok? "

" Okaaaay …."

He shut the door and took of his shirt .. just before he could unzip his jeans his phone rang , " So did you tell them ?" Raseel's voice was on the other end

" Yes I did , 3la 7athich il yoom m6abag zbaidee .. 3ad mn eed el walda shay mo 6abeeeee3eeeee "

" 3ad mn zman mo makla hal sowalif .. mn eed 5alty akeed 7loo.."


"Get ready am picking you up soon.."

" You're picking me up? Laish ? "

" Well omy marethat tyeen broo7ech 3aib .."

" Way b3d 3mree ! 5alas okay .. am getting ready , any ideas on what I should wear ? its your parents house I dont want to look like … madree ! "

" Are you kidding ? you never look like madree.. anything you put on looks wonderful"


that made Raseel blush , the bond with 3eesa was very strong that she felt she can nag about clothes and he wouldn’t care !


" Yalla yalla .. lebsay ay shay ana yay..mo tna6reenee bil sayara "

" Hmmmm fine ..see you in a few "

"Okay .." He closed the phone and fell hard on his bed smiling to himself , imagining what she would look like , every time he saw her she was prettier than the last

" 3eeeesaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa !! aw you finished !? "

He forgot about Rawa2 who was standing outside the door !

" Oops " 3eesa giggled , he quickly put on his pullover and opened the door


" Ana baroo7 ayeeb Raseel "

" Okay ana ban6ewha hnee "

" Matabee tyeen? awal marra ! "

" La2 goewge mayabee yeg3ad bwoo7a " she said looking at George

" Man5ali9 e7na mn hal george , yalla bye bye " He kissed her head and went out

He picked up Raseel who was wearing a cute white coat and a baby blue scarf around her neck , her hair was let loose and straight around her shoulders

" Hey you ," she said as soon as she climbed in

" Ahlaan " he tried not to look at her for too long

" Okay so here we go .. " ,

They reached the house and 3eesa's mom and dad greeted Raseel lovingly and led her to the dining room where Rawa2 sat holding George


" Hey prettiness " Raseel went to kiss Rawa2

" Helloooo " she grinned

" Yalla Raseel yumma erta7ay , 3a6eenee jakaitech 5al a3alga .." 3eesa's mom told her


She took her scarf and her coat off , she was wearing a baby blue cotton dress that was rapped around beautifully on her tight body

" La ma3alih 5alty ana awadeeh "

" Bas 3a6ee 7g lalita .."

She went to look for Lalita when 3eesa snuck up behind her " Hey you ! "

" Aah ! you scared me ! " she gave him a light punch

" Do it again .."

" Why ? " she looked confused

" I want to know when exactly will i feel the pain ..hhhmmm...? " he made a face looking up towards space

She had to admit his body was amazing .. not too built and not too skinny just perfect!

" Btetfalsaf 3lay just because you can hold a kite better than I do? "

He laughed and looked at her

Maybe I should make the first move .. , he thought to himself .. if something should go wrong to me in surgery and she doesn't know how i feel...

" Raseel .."

" Hmm ?" She looked up at him with innocent eyes


" 3eesaaa Raseeeel ! ta3alaw yumma 7a6aina el '3adaaa ! " They both heard 3eesa's mom call out
