Chapter Two
The Getting To Know Each Other Part.

One night I was in the kitchen eating pizza hut, me and 3abdalla kina insolef msjs, kan 9arlina taqreeban 3 weeks kilyoom in7achi ba3ath oo chethi oo I was starting to really like him. So I sent him a msj:

Noura: “e7na shnu?”

3abdalla: “ shlon ya3ni? Mafahamt.”

Noura: “ya3ni ana weyak shnu ? Friends wela more wela shnu ?”

3abdalla: “umm, Close friends”

Noura: “Oh okay” ( I was kinda pissed to hear that ;s )

3abdalla: “Shfeech ?”

Noura: “ la mako”

3abdalla: “Golay”

Noura: “wala mako shay”

3abdalla: “ana aq9id close friends mithil boyfriend and girlfriend”

Noura: “la wala? ;p”

3abadalla: “lo0ol ee, tabeen ?”

Noura: “looool ee abi, by the way cham mara agolik lataktib chethi il “lo0ol” ma7eb e7er!”

3abdalla: “lo0ol ok sorry ;p”

Noura: “waiih”

Every relationship has the getting to know each other part. Find out the likes and dislikes. The weekly mood swings, the things that piss us off, and many others. Fa with us it was really complicated. Ana noo3i rasi yabis oo ohwa 1000 times akthar mini. Ilsuwalef ili bayna kanaw akthar shay arguments oo hwash, bas lama khala9na ekon 3adi neth7ak wen3ayeb 3ala ba3ath chena ma9ar shay. Makina min noo3 ili in3a9ib 3ala ashya2 tafha. Ili kanaw e3arfoona kanaw mestaghrebeen shloon ana weyah lasted more than a week ;p because kina bilthab6 3aks ba3ath! Ashya2 ohwa e7ebha ana akraha! Oo ili ana a7ebha ohwa yekraha! Bas ham we survived it. Ohwa gharama shay esma sea food! Shrimp, fish, and everything else! Wana ma akil wela shay min il ba7ar ma7eb kilish! Ohwa noo3a closed minded tafkeer awal oo chethi , ana 7adi liberal oo open minded kina 3aks ba3ath bil thab6 ;p ilshay il kan efare7ni ini Kint ashoofa atleast once a week, sometimes when im lucky twice ;p

Our daily routine went like this: we spend our days going out weya our friends oo chethi indez msjat 7ag ba3ath bas mo wayed mankather minhum kanaw 7ayl basee6a chethi.

3abdalla: “Waynich?”

Noura: “Ray7a movie, u? “

3abdalla: “Ay movie?”

Noura: “BLA BLA, inta waynik ? ” ( I cant think of a movie that was 4 years ago ;p )

3abdalla: “oh okaay, Dewaniya, Have fun”

Noura: “ k u2, ttyl”

Those were taqreeban all the msjs we send to each other in a day, unless we had something that we needed to say. The thing that we are alike ina both of us man7eb a7ad edeg wayed oo edez msjat wayed, mo noo3na chethi, na6fer ibser3a so that was a good thing. Another thing about 3abdalla he doesn’t know how to be romantic ;p neither did I ;p so we did have some things in common. After our day is over, when he goes home and I go home he sends me a msj.

3abdalla: “Waynich?“

Noura: “Home u?”

3abdalla: “can I call ?”

Noura: “eee”

And then he would call and we’d talk about how our day went and shnu sawayna oo if something funny happened ingool ilqe9a .. ashya2 chethi 7ayl 3adiya, the thing that happens in every single phone call is this ;p

(30 mins after talking about stuff that happened today he yawns ;p)

Noura: “ Yala nooma?”

3abdalla: “LA!”

Noura: “imbalaaa ba3th ilnas feehum ilnoom oo warahum ga3da”

3abdalla: “aah intay tabeen itnameen ya3ni? “

Noura: “ahahaha La inta!”

3abdalla: “la wala mafeeni ilnoom kilish!”

(15 mins later another yawn)

Noura: “Gooli good night”

3abdalla: “laysh?”

Noura: “La2ana betnam il7een, fa yala gooli”

3abdalla: “la mani nayim wala”

Noura “3abdalla! Gooli good night yala!”

3abdalla: “Good night, oo ba3ad shsawaitay ilyoom? “

Noura: “hahaha ya7maaar”

3abdalla: “haha yala ba3ad shway ba3ad shway”

And it goes on and on until I just be quite and he falls asleep ;p
