I went straight to Maitha's car, dropped my things and went to have coffee at Laduree, we talked about Graduation and the after party. She then brought up about my skydiving experience. This was my opportunity to tell her about wat Khalid told me.

Maitha: Wallah ur so lucky Khalid let you skydive
Me: Yah i went with him tara
Maitha: Abdullah would never let me
Me: Maitha i'll tell you something but i hope it wont upset you.
Maitha: Sho?
Me: And please don't take it personally, remember today when khalid interrupted us and he looked mad.
Maitha: Yah wat was wrong with him
Me: well he was upset that Abdullah came, he didn't like it
Maitha: But Abdullah was far away from us
Me: Yah thats wat i told him, he still didn't like the fact that my best-friend's boyfriend was there you know what I mean
Maitha: Yah i know if Abdullah knew Khalid was ur boyfriend and we were in the same place together it would upset him too.
Me: Oh yeh and please don't tell him about me and Khalid
Maitha: So i just let him keep in his mind that your still with Mayed.
Me: No, just tell him Mayed and i broke up and about Mayed.......


I went on and on telling her wat happened between mayed and i today etc..

We then left Dubai Mall and head straight to my house.
Maitha dropped me off at the house, i got in rushed straight to my mom

Me: Mama!
Mom: Halla 7abeebtee estanastee ams?
Me: heih mama ww 7ata alyoom

Me: Sho??
Mom: Mn 3end gom Khalid

i threw my laptop on the chair and ran to my room, and my room was filled with flowers and gifts. I just went through all of them to see which one of them did khalid send me. I tried calling him a million times but he wouldn't answer. My gifts were from my aunts, cousins, uncles and my moms friends. But i couldn't find a gift from Khalid.

Mom: {pops her head} 3anabooch yal khebla shaleity rbei3 lein ehneeh!
Me: Mama hadaya lazim bark'6
Mom: Ilay ysma3ch ygool inha bint fager
Me: {laughs} mama !
Mom: Ta3aleee alkhadamat 7a6an ba3ad hadeya-lich hneeh hay hee men 3end gom Bin X

I rushed to the living room between mariam and i's room.
And there was the gift from the " Bin X "

Mom: Weih ta3alee 9a7 nseit akhaberch tara obooch 3azmnhom alyoom 3dna
Me: Sho?
Mom: Yoom chaf khalid fltakharuj ams galeh lazem yt3ashon 3edna, fa obooch kalam Khalaf oo kelhom bayoona alyoom
Me: Bas mama i'm not ready ! leish baba y3zmhom today

I just felt my heart beating so fast, Khalid knew about this! and he didn't tell me !
I just don't know wat to say or even how to react.

Mom: Yalla bsr3a goomee tsab7ay wtlabesay lein matkhal9een hom baykoonon ehneeh
Me: Lazem anzel?
Mom: Heih lazem

As i had to go downstairs, i went took a shower, blow dried my hair, applied my make uo wore my midi dress from Valentino.
There was still no call or BBM from Khalid
I straight away rushed downstairs to help with the table setting and everything.

Mom: Shaikha! Mariam!
Me: Na3am!
Mom: Ta3lo yallah, ww hatoo Sherineh

My heart started beating even more i stood in front of a mirror and looked at how i looked.
Took a deep breath and went to my parents who were escorting the guests in.
All of the Bin X came in, Khalid was not with them.
This broke my heart
