Beauty and the Knight ± Chapter 4

Oh  .. My ... God !
i seriously don't believe what I'm seeing here
for a second I thought i was just imagining that he's here
BUT HE'S ACTUALLY RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME !


Zach: Alright Shaika this is Kalid and he'll be joining us today

he said it with a very sharp british accent, i mean come on i saw him for the first time yesterday and today we're playing tennis with together ! Does he even know how to play !!!

Me: Do you even know how to play?
Khalid: 2faaaa 3aleeichhh
Zach: Guess thats a yes, come on let me see you guys play a one on one game
Me: seriously !
Zach: Yes seriously. Yala !
Khalid: Ha...? Yallah ba3ad (laughs khalid)
Me: Yah Zach knows some arabic words
Zach: Just two shaika Yala and Wala, cuz thats the only two words she uses
Khalid: Don't worry now that i'll be joining you, i'll be teaching you more words
Me: Joining us?
Zach: Enough with the talking lets play !



My first one on one game with Khalid it was, hmm how should i put it . . .


Zach: AMAZING GAME YOU GUYS! i would never put a male and female player against one another but the first round Kalid beating you up sure brought up the anger in you and made you win the second round
Me: Yah it was quite a nice game (looking at khalid with a smile)
Zach: Today we may wasted some time but on tuesday, i'll book the court for 3 hours to have a long harder match between you two, and get you shaika ready for that tournament
Khalid: Tournament ?
Zach: I got to go i'll see you two tuesday. Khalid great to meet you
Khalid: You too ..
Me: How did you know i was playing here
Khalid: tarach entee khabarteenee
Me: oh... bas keif 3eraft minoo modarbee
Khalid: You were the only one playing today
Me: Ahaaa, yalla i'll see you tuesday take care
Khalid: Haaaa 9abreee, shooo salfet al tournament
Me: i have this tournament in AD next month so i have to train well
Khalid: Aywaa, ok shoo rayech we get a quick shower and meet up in the cafe
Me: no i can't i have to get back home mom is forcing me to have lunch with them today
Khalid: 2faa, khalas next time nshalla
Me: Ok byee

I went into the changing room took a quick shower, got dressed quick and went to my car.
While i was standing outside waiting for the valet to get my car i saw around 15 missed calls from Mayed. How stupid of me not calling him on my way here not even checking on my BBMs. The first thing i did was call Mayed.


{Outgoing call MayUs}

Mayed: Shaikha!
Me: Hiii baaabyy i'm sorry
Mayed: You should be! enteee wein?
Me: I was at my tennis practice
Mayed: Ww leish mat9alteelee awal ma nasheity
Me: Sorry baby i was late so i had to rush here !

All of a sudden

Khalid: Haa shaklich ba3adch hnee
Me: (couldn't even form a sentence) waa... haa...

{Mayed over the phone}
Mayed: Shoo?
Me: Mayed mumkn thawanee bas let me get into my car and i'll call you
Mayed: Quick cuz i'm dead tired i wanna talk to you for a bit
Me: Sure thing babe bye

I turned around and glared at Khalid..

Khalid: Bismelaa shoo saweit ana ?
Me: Nothing, but i hate it when i'm on the phone with someone and someone comes and talks to me
Khalid: 2asef ana
Me: La 3adi
Khalid: You drive?
Me: Heih...
Khalid: 7ata ana (smiling)
Me: (trying to hold back my laugh) really
Khalid: Arnt u 17 yrs old?
Me: Us permit, never been stopped in Dubai
Khalid: (laughs) showing off?
Me: No, its just something you need to know about me
Khalid: so when is ur birthday?
Me: my car is here i got to go
Khalid: tell me when?
Me: we'll talk on bbm, bye
Khalid: (shouts) 3an el sr3a


i looked at him and saw that KILLER smile that makes me feel like i'm melting ever since i saw him. i got into my car and looked at the rear-view mirror and saw him get into the car behind me.
First thing i did was call Mayed.
The usual he spoke about his day.
I spoke about my day.
And then he slept.


I got back home and as soon as i set foot into the house, i heard a loud voice calling me that is coming from the living room, i knew that voice was familiar

Me: BABA!!
Dad: Shawakhy !
Me: Welcome home baba, how was your trip
Dad: Al7amdila, shaikha shu gelna na7na khala9 lazm tarmseen 3erby. Mayestwy tedkhleen aljam3a wentey mat3arfeen titkalmein bel 3erby

Me: (laughs) they'll be home within 15 minutes, ana baseer abdel malabsee ww barja3lek


i went upstair to my room placed my tennis racket to where it belongs, wore something nice as usual no matter where i go to even at home i have to look my best, grabbed my blackberry and laid on my bed, sent mayed I love you, read the usual Maitha's complaints about her mother not letting her to sleep since its the weekend. And then there was Khalid.

I just got into my own world, my mom went on and on i didn't pay any attention to wat she was saying I just can't believe what was i hearing, i quickly ate my food and rushed to my room, grabbed my blackberry, i just had to know if this was THE KHALID .
