Beauty and the Knight ± Chapter 1

Whoever thought that I will end up with him
out of all these girls i was the one;

i remember it as it was yesterday being forced to go to a carnival i wasn't looking forward for..

i remember just looking at him from a distance with his big smile . . bright teeth . . that amazing fit body

i didn't want to get close to him . .

Maitha and Hend my two best friends had to play a human paintball game i didn't want to,
i just wanted to stand there and look at him..

I spotted him going to his friends where the paintball was, unintentionally i just went there and told my friends i wanted to play. .

i remember maitha looking at a guy and say" we'll be three not two " the other guy was preparing the guns and he was just looking at me and smiling i can never forget they way i felt that day

i remember him looking at me with his killer smile and says " will u handle the paintball gun " i just remember laughing and turning red . . .

Maitha and Hend also went crazy over him, i just had to keep it to myself without going crazy like they did in front of them ..

Well here goes,
My name is Shaikha and this is the story on how i met the man of my dreams Khalid

'Til death do us part - Chapter 34 (Finale 2/2)

* 2 years later *

He suddenly couldn't breath i saw his face turn blue i had to rush him to the hospital .. i called abdulrahman crying and screaming telling him our son is dying.. Hamad is only 3 months old .. They took my baby away i rushed behind the doctors they wouldnt let me in but i had to i forced myself.. I can hear abdulrahman's voice ovetside screaming

" I will do anything for you to save my son! "

i looked around me and saw three nurses were trying to calm me down. Just looking at my son on a bed in front of me not moving kills me .. the nurse grabbed my hand and kept saying 

" stay strong he will be fine "

As she tried to calm me down i shut my eyes and just started praying to god .. i suddenly heard a long beep I knew it i knew he died but i was to scared to open my eyes and face it. Tears started rushing down i heard abdulrahman shout 

" Jawaher ! " 

i opened my eyes saw his face turning red i looked at him and said 

" 7amad mat ? "

Abdulrahman grabbed me and took me out and told me 

" 6ayr min 6yoor al jana nshalla " 

i was in so much shock that when i got home Ahmed was asking me about his little brother i couldn't even respond i didn't know what to say or how would i explain to a three year old his baby brother died ..

My step-mom and my dad rushed to the house my step mom cried so much the only thing i can say to her Abdulrahman told me was   

" 6ayr min 6yoor aljana nshalla " 

Abdulrahman and I stayed strong as our families came to us .. we didn't want a funeral or anything we just wanted to be with our family..  

No matter wat happens .. no matter what Abdulrahman and i go through nothing will break us we would always stay strong .. We know our son is in a better place now .. and it was a challenge from god for us to see how patient we are..

Life goes on and we had to tell Ahmed that Hamad is with god and we will see him someday nshalla.

And no matter challenges Abdulrahman and I have nothing other than death would tear us part..

'Til death do us part - Chapter 33 (Finale 1/2)

2011 ended really bad with the split up of Abdulrahman and I, but 2012 is even worse.. fighting for custody, arguments between both families.. However Ahmed and i haven't spoken .. In mid February i won sole custody of Ahmed.. When the judge told us that i first turned around and looked at Abdulrahman, his face was pale and blank.. i teared up just looking at him, he looked at me smiled and walked away.. who ever knew that after one year of getting married I'd be a single about to be divorced mother.. I never wanted this to happen.. our families being so stubborn causing all this.. i love Abdulrahman and i do want him back, if he doesnt want me i'd rather have shared custody than sole custody of Ahmed.. My baby needs to be with his father !


Me: Ubooya mumkn aklm Abdulra7man shwy
Dad: La2

Me: No dad i have to, no matter wat he's still the father of me son!

Dad: Jawaher geltlij la2

Me: You can't make me .. Abdulra7man!

Dad: Jawaher!

I ran to Abdulrahman held his hand and told him

" no matter wat i'll always love you, ur the love of my life and the father of my son,  non of our parents can do anything to make us live apart i know you dont want me anymore but we still have a7mad and he's the only one who'll keep as connected to each other "

Abdulrahman: I'll always love you jawaher, but you already signed the divorce papers, I'm on my way to sign them now thats wat our parents want, u'll be a good mother to a7mad lat7ateen

Dad: Yes jawaher he's doing the right thing 

Me: No he's not! abdulra7man i love u can't live without you, a7mad needs his father in his life ! hes almost 1 now he needs you ! Dad do something please ! dont ruin the life i always wanted, i was happy with abdulra7man how could one thing just do all this to us !

Abdulrahman: 3ami..

Dad: Tbaha el bent?

Abdulrahman: Haih 

Abdulrahmans Dad: Abdulrahman mt2akd ?

Abdulrahman: Haih ubooyh

Dad: 3eyal twaklo

'Til death do us part - Chapter 32

Standing in front of the judge, 

Fighting for my sons custody,

I never thought things would lead to this 

One stupid lie

And everything changed.. 

I knew i shouldn't have believed him 

I thought we were brothers

This is what he has done to me..

He ruined my marriage and my family

I knew Jawaher would never do such a thing 

I knew i should've believed her..

God she's my wife, Or should i say was..

Whats done is done..

I lost my wife..

And now I'm about to lose my son..

This wasn't suppose to be like this..

She's not even looking at me..

Not a glimpse.

*****************************

If only he knew how much i loved him..

If only he would believe me 

Abdulrahman was the love of my life 

How could he believe Marwan

I knew it was a mistake hiding what Marwan did to me 

But why would i risk my marriage and bring up something like that..

God i just wish i told Abdulrahman..

We wouldn't be here right now..

I can never hate Abdulrahman ..

It wasn't his mistake for hitting me ..

He was just mad..

I don't know if i'm just saying this 

Or I'm saying this cuz i still do love him..

Look at us in a room together, 

I can't even try to look at him..

I'm so scared

I don't want to lose Ahmed 

Or Abdulrahman

But i'm sure he no longer wants me..

I'm trying so hard to be strong..
