I slept like a baby that night. The fact that i was spending more time with her made me feel good. The girl had a vibe .. An Aura surrounding her , you know what those weird psychologists always say ' that a person carries positive energy? and that person may carry his/her energy to effect others around him/her ?'. I think that's what happened to me when i met her.



I woke up and found that 7amanni ,Salim and 3bdallah went out to Sul6an to get some stuff and 3ammar was still sleeping. I went straight up to the porch and just as i had hoped , she was there.




I stood there for a little while watching her gracefully dancing through the water and found myself in a daze. I hurried to the shore and jumped in slowly arriving at where she was floating beautifully, she suddenly gasped and flipped herself under




" Ambai! " She popped up again holding her hand close to her chest " Wayed 5eft! WAYED! " She took some time to breathe and looked at me with piercing eyes " 3bdelwahab .. "




And i found myself acting like a fool again , i couldn't help it .. It happened every time she mentioned my name



" You can't sneak up on people like that "



" I wasn't trying to scare anyone " I said as gently as possible, i honestly wasn't !



She frowned and looked away breathing slowly " feel free to scare me when we're actually on solid ground , i watched Jaws yesterday and am not a fan! stupid Lamia made me watch it. I hate her now .. this .. not even Mcdonald's could fix " There it is , the non step blabbing i was a sucker for. I smiled at her not really knowing what to say



" WhaT?" She asked



" You know sharks couldn't possibly BE at this part of sea right? "



" YOU watch that stupid movie and tell me how YOU react when you take a swim alone and someone sneaks up behind you "



" Am .. sorry? " I tried to say but my face wasn't helping , I was still amused by her genuine reaction



But before i said anything else , she disappeared again under water and i found myself looking left and right to see where she went




I remembered the other day at the beach when i saw her suddenly jump and went right after her ..



I remembered how scared i was for her , i had no idea why ..




I looked again and again and that feeling wasn't nice at all , i didn't like looking for people .. or things for that matter, because after some point you freak out and your senses start being overworked.




When i was 10 i lost my Ultimate Battlefield crafty yoyo my dad had got me from a mini mart. ALL my friends had one of those things and we'd use them in the shower if our parents said we could. I lost mine one day and missed out on an important match with my other buddies only to find that it was under my bed the whole time, so all my crying and anger was for nothing. After that i decided i HATED looking for stuff .




I knew it was silly , that there was no need for me to act like that, She was just playing around .. But memories came flooding in and i didn't like them to ..




I could't help what i was feeling and my reaction was uncontrollable. But at just the right time her pretty head popped out again behind me forming a mischievous lovely smile on it " See? told you it doesn't feel nice "



I smiled , god if only you knew what happened to me just now , i thought.



" You're right , am sorry "



" So why are you up at this hour ? " She asked as she flew by me again , swimming rhythmically in a circle around me



" I told you i wanted to see you "




I could see her smiling , It's been a while since i put so much effort in when i liked a girl .. It felt crazy weird , but still nice




It was worth it , i mean .. if only you looked at her




The way she was at ease moving in the water , the grace she had , the rhythm .. All indicated that she wasn't just swimming for fun. Her actions showed a lot more than that




" You swim beautifully " I told her



She swam a little closer to me then stopped when her face met mine " Thank you " She said meeting my gaze , her cheeks were burning i could tell but she tried so hard to hide it



" It's what i live for .. " Her hand ran across the surface of water then she looked back up at me " I won a golden medal once , but i never got in any contest again after that "



" Why not? "



She just smiled awkwardly and looked away at the horizon again , i didn't want to pressure her so i just changed the subject " The weather is perfect today "




" Yeah , " She turned her head to where i was looking and i took the chance to steal a glance at her again ..



I just couldn't look away , she was breathtaking



Her black hair was even shinier under the rays of the sun , her matching eyes were twinkling fighting drops of pure shiny water on her face



I never saw much of that back in Canada , everything was different here. The girls couldn't be more lovely over there , they seriously couldn't. but this ..




I remembered characters from Arabian nights , the beautiful women who made men go crazy over them ..



My friends back there told me they'd kill for an Arab featured girl with black hair , dark eyes and a caramel complexion to match , and now i knew what they meant.




She caught me again staring at her , but i just smiled. If she knew she had that effect on me so be it , i didn't mind ..




" Do you mind if i ask you a question ? "




" Sure go ahead "




" May i .. please take you to lunch? " my voice was hopeful



I saw her face turn red with surprise , but then she smiled



" 3bdelWahab .. " She began " i don't know about the whole going out part , " Her face fell " am not used to that sort of thing "




I was a little disappointed then. Okay ,very
disappointed . But she was right , i couldn't just offer something like that to her , she barely knew me



" But i'd love to sit down for a picnic on the beach with you "



My heart instantly went back to it's regular beating ,Before i could react " McDonald's is what i live for "



I found myself laughing , Man




I think i just found the perfect girl




" So McDonald's it is. I'll be at your Shalaih's porch at 2 ?"




" Perfect "


She disappeared again before i could say another word , i watched her run out of the sea and grab her towel.



Then she was gone again




I hated for her to go , to run away on me like that .. But i had a certain pleasure of watching her, even when she was leaving ..





I waited at her porch as planned , after i told the guys what happened they went crazy on me



3bdallah thought it was a great idea and offered to come with me to prepare for our picnic, 7amanni told me to ask if the color on one of the cars near Shai5a's Shalaih was custom made , Salim gave me some Gel i couldn't really use on my crew cut and was going to come with me and Shai5a if 3bdallah hadn't punched him




And 3ammar .. He said i reminded him of the good old days. But said that the beauty of marriage , is that you can have dates whenever you want without appointments with the woman you love



I was wearing a dark Abercrombie shirt and jeans , Salim thought shorts were going to be an understatement of the evening ..




God knows what THAT means




So in a short while she showed up , wearing a nice white sun-dress that made her skin glow , her hair was down and decorated with big nice waves pulling up only the first two strands on each side of her head




" Good afternoon " i said as she approached me



" Good afternoon to you too " I didn't know whether to concentrate on her captivating scent or her pure voice " Shall we go ? "




She nodded gently and i took her to a nice nearby spot away from all the busyness of the Shalaih's




A baby blue mat me and 3bdallah got from Sultan's lay at ease on the sand and big McD's paper bags were lined there too




" After you " I gestured for her to sit , she giggled and sat before me




" I didn't know what you liked , so i picked up a few of my favorites .. I hope it's not much "




" When it's McDonald's theres no such thing as too much food "





A girl who loves the sea and food?! i think am in love






" I got you ice cream too , i hope it didn't melt yet "




" Let's start with it then ! " She suddenly said excited




I stopped and looked at her surprised and amused at the same time " Start with ice cream before real food? "




" Dessert is ALWAYS more fun before the real meal , plus life is too short man! "




I laughed and pulled out 2 Oreo McFlurries " Thank you " She said and took one from me hand






" So , do you do this often ? " She asked




" Do what? " I said after taking a mouthful of ice cream in my mouth



" Do picnics on the beach with girls and buy them all of McDonald's Summer stock ?"



I laughed , " Not really , no. Am not really that guy "




She gulped " Really ?! "



" Really "



" And .. your ex didn't mind? "



It was a little painful to hear about Kenzii as my ex , but i sucked it up for Shai5a's sake and answered politely " We weren't exactly that sort of couple "




" No movies, no sharing popcorn and no long walks on the beach? "




I shook my head with a smile , " You really do watch a lot of movies , don't you? "




" Not Jaws .. " She shook her head " God knows i won't watch THAT stupid movie ever again " She looked at the Sea and her body shivered




I laughed " It's okay , i guess i can take a few sharks down "





" Wah! Mr. big head "




" Better , i been Mr. big muscle for way too long it won't hurt to change " i winked at her




She laughed " You're unbelievable "




" What about you ? Dora the explorer ! what .. you want to travel over to the north pole and save Penguins now ? "




She looked at me in a funny way " Okay , i won't even ask how you know that show "




I smiled remembering little Lulu , i missed that little thing and i had to say i owe her alot



I mean , the girl introduced me to a whole new culture on TV !




I couldn't wait to see her tomorrow , wait! we're going back tomorrow




My heart sunk at the thought of it , means i won't be able to see Shai5a sitting out on the sand or swimming around ..




I won't be able to steal a sneak peak at her face whenever i wanted to





" So , when are you going back to the city? " i asked reaching for the other bag to take out our Sandwiches




" Tomorrow i think "




" Us too " i nodded




" Shai5a .. " I hesitated before i asked




" hmm? " She looked up at me



" Do you mind if i gave you my number? "




She almost choked " What did .. did i say something wrong? " i asked again




She giggled " No , But why do you want to give me your number ?"




" So we can call each other ? " I shrugged , " You DO use a mobile right? you don't think it's against humanity or that it's going to turn into a Robot and kill you or something , do you? "




" Whaat?! Why would it do that it's a machine ! "





" Did you NOT watch I-robot? "




" There's a movie too ! " Her voice was a little too loud , okay .. there was a little possibility she was going to freak out on me





She put her hand on her forehead , closed her eyes and sighed " Dear god , there are a whole lot of movies i been saved from , thank you so much "





I would've laughed if i didn't find it too darn cute , i just kept thinking when would this girl stop amazing me?




We continued eating our meal and i truly and utterly enjoyed her company more than food itself , which was a huge miracle ..




She had Ideas about the world that no one's ever thought of , she had meanings for words i could never understand ..



But i liked that about her



After we were done , we took a long walk ..




Which she enjoyed , because she wanted to ' introduce me to the world i never knew ' as she said it , since i wasn't ' that guy '





I didn't say she wasn't weird .. Shai5a was beautifully weird




And i absolutely loved every single second i spent with her





I walked her to her Shalaih at last , " So .. You're not going to give me your phone numbeR? " I asked





I saw her smile mischievously , she lowered her head and moved closer to me " I'll tell you what .. am sure you'll come back here with your friends soon , and i will too. If we're meant to see each other again here at the exact same spot we first saw each other , then we'll see where we go from there. Then , i'll be more than glad to give you my number "




I stood there startled after being rejected for the first time in my life, even when it wasn't rejection .. not really ..



But something inside me told me to wait , to listen to her




To believe her and go with it




I found myself smiling



" We leave tomorrow morning " She told me " But in case i don't see you .. " She moved even closer to me and her head was only a few inches from the side of mine




She moved a little next to my ear and i could sense her breath " Thank you for everything , 3bdelWahab " She whispered to me




And then again , she disappeared




I stood there not being able to move , that girl had a spell on me and i had no idea how to break it
