Noun
A French word means a star.”
Once you were a shining ètoile to my sky..
In life I've learned two things, to not trust people and to not get attached to others. Because sometime I will get betrayed or they will just leave me broken. I believe that it's my destiny.. But it hurts it just hurts so much.
I bet you're confused; so let me go back few years ago.. From where It all started until now..
It was a chilly July early morning, I was running as a morning exercise by The Yarra river in Melbourne - Australia. Half an hour later it started to rain; just like everyday. I ran to my car as quick as I can. I was so wet. I hopped in my car; I took a towel and started to dry myself. I finally drove to my house and took a quick shower then wore my black formal skirt with a blazer, I wore my sneakers and I ran with my black classic Louboutins in my hand to my car then I drove to work.
“Good morning Ms. Alflani"
"Good morning Mathew,"
I said as I asked Emily to get my coffee to my office.
"Ms. Alflani you have 3 meetings today, one from 10:30 to 12 with the incoming and outgoing section, And hmmm from 1 to 2 with the advertising section, and from 4 to 5:30 with some new staff.” Emily said.
“All in one day? Why? What do I have for tomorrow?” I said pissed off
“Tomorrow you have to check some new fabrics, see the new designs.” Emily said.
“Cancel the 4 PM meeting, I will see them tomorrow, now get me the files from yesterday.” I ordered her.
“Okay ma'am,” Emily said.
I'm Lily, 25 years old, I work in a fashion designing company in Melbourne, I work as a deputy of the owner (the owner is my mother). My father is Saudi but my mother is half French and half Australian but she lived in Australia since forever. I speak all of English, Arabic and French fluently. I got my mother natural blonde hair and my father's tanned skin. I have blue eyes, and full lips.

Nothing really intrested happened that day at work, so let me skip to when I arrived home?
I opened the door, I heard giggles of my mom and another person, he sounds like a guy. I took off my coat and hanged it in the closet and went to the guests room, to see my mom and a man, he looked in his late 20s or early 30s.
“Hello,” I said as I tiptoed.
“Hey Lily, come and say hi to your cousin, Ali” my mother said. “He just arrived from Saudi, few hours ago,” she added.
The last time I went to Saudi when I was maybe 11 or 12 so I don't really remember anyone. My father comes to visit me from time to time, he's so sweet, caring and loving person, but he and my mother they couldn't stay so long together. Due to some family issues.
Anyway let's go back to Ali.
Ali stood up and we shook hands.
“How are you lily?” he asked
“I'm fine, how about you?” I replied with a low tone.
“I'm good,” he said and smiled. His smile was so soft, and showed his kindness.
“Lil, go change your work clothes before we serve dinner,” my mother said, and her hand went through my hair.
“Okay,” I said and went to my room.
I changed to my very comfy grey leggings, and an oversized sweater, I pulled my hair into high pony tail, and spread some perfume all over me. I ran downstairs and dinner was served already, mama and Ali were waiting for me, obviously..
“Mmm looks so yummy,” I said as I smiled to our chef who was pouring some water for Ali. He smiled back.
“Red or white wine sir?” The chef asked.
“Aaa, I...” I really didn't give him a chance to complete his sentence, “chef, he's Muslim too,” I said, as I raised one eyebrow
“Oh, I'm so sorry,” he said. Ali smiled and looked at me.
“Sam7ni twa jdeed ma y3rf shay marh,” I said.
He looked shocked and his jaw almost dropped down.
“ttklmeen 3rbi?” He asked looking so confused.
“Ee? Yarb eni s3oudia mo Australian,” I said as I giggled. “Mo layg 97?” I added
“Abd,” he said and laughed
“Je parle français aussi,” I said
Translation: I speak French too.
“moi aussi,” he said.
Translation: me too.
“Amanah how did you learn?” I asked.
“In school, the used to teach us.” He said.
“That's cool,” I said.
We ate and chatted a little, he talked about "our family" there and his life.And yeah he's 29 years old, and he's getting married in 4 months, how cute!
After dinner, Ali left our place.
“He's nice,” my mother said as she winked and giggled.
“Mom! He's getting married!!” I said.
“So what?” She said.
“Mom please don't act that you don't know my religion nor culture.” I said with a pissed off tone.
“Okay I'm sorry I'm sorry,” she said.
“I'm going to sleep,” I said as I kissed her forehead and ran upstairs.
When I laid on my bed, I was checking my phone, suddenly Ali sent me a text saying “I need to see you tomorrow! It's important”
What's wrong.
“Okay, when? And where”
“5:30 at Melbourne central.”
“Okay, I will be on time!”
--
Next day at Melbourne central, 5:40 PM. I was waiting for Ali. He's 10 minuets late.
“Hey,” he said. Finally (:
“Finally,” and I let a sigh out
“I'm sorry I got lost,” he said.
“Lw eni martk mo a7san?” I complained.
“Next time don't worry,” he said.
“So what do you want?” I asked.
“I need your help.. Please.” He said and his cheeks turned to 10 shades of red.
“Sure, but with what?” I asked.
“I need to choose a gift for my finacee” he said.
“Mmm I see, thanks god it's Thursday.” I said.
“Why?” He asked.
“Only on Thursday the shops close at 7:30”
“Kwais!!” He said.
“Let's go?” I said.
“Yallah, ladies first,” he said and we both giggled.
After an hour of roaming around that mall, we finally stopped by Fendi and we decided to get her a bag.
“Excuse me madam,” the worker said.
“Me?” I asked
“Yeah you, are you ms. Alflani?” Shee asked.
“Aaaa yeah it's me,” I said
“Oh my god, finally I've met you. I swear you and your mother designs are the best.” She said.
“Aww, thank you. That's so sweet of you,” I said with giggles.
She smiled and went to her friends in the shop.
“Lily,” Ali called me.
“I'm coming,” I walked to him.
“Shrayek?” He asked, as he showed me a black peekaboo bag.
“Great choice!!” I said “you should get it for her,” I added.
“Would she love it?”
“Are you kidding me? Akeed!!!” I said.
“Okay, excuse me, I want this.” He ordered.
“Your taste is good wallah,” i said.
“Mshkoora,” he giggled.
We went to pay.
“Are you paying cash or visa?” The cashier asked.
“Visa,” Ali said. “But wait,” he added.
“Lily, ngi wsh tbeen? Knt b5tarlk wallah bs mdri wsh tbeen,” he said.
“Shd3waa Ali, lw abi shay byw9lni lain 3ndi 7ta ma y7taj aji,” I said
“Glna designer bs mo tshofen nfsk 3leena,” he said.
“Ma ashoof nfsi,” I said “bs k4a 7yati,”
He paid for the bag and we went to have dinner.
After we ordered, Ali decided to break the ice between us.
“Talk to me about yourself,” he said.
“What you exactly wanna know?”
“Aish kan g9dk lma glti "bs k4a 7yati.” He asked.
“7yati Baini w baink? Tzhg. Magdr a6l3 bdoon guards w e4a 6l3t bdoonhom lazm at5ba w ma a5li ay a7d yshoofni. Ant shft elyoum ha4a w Ana labsa glasses w snapback km marh 9wrt? Km marh I signed for people?” I said.
“Kl bnat es3udia yboon zayk,” he said
“Everyone wishes for this kind of life, but when they try it, believe me, they'll get bored.” I said. “Meetings and replying emails all day isn't fun at all.” I said
“I feel you,” he said.
A moment of an awkward silence.
“Hey Lily.” Ali said
“Call me Lil“ I said.
“Okay, Lil, 3adi lw n9wr snapchat?” He asked.
“Hmm yeah, bs your finacee btr'9a?” I asked.
“Ee shd3waa, she knows a9ln enna 6al3een,” he said.
We took a snapchat and he added the picture to his story.
“3ndk snapchat,” he asked
“Mmm, yes I do, but PLEASE I BEG YOU don't give to anyone. No one.” I said
“For sure,” he said
“Thank you,” I said.
“Kli 6ayb,” he said
While we were eating, his phone started to ring.
“Rana!!” He said
“Who's Rana?” I asked
“My finacee,” he said
“Take your time,“ I said and smiled.
“Hala 7beeebti hala b,rou7i,” he said
“7amxellah mshtag lk wallah, enti bshri 3nk?”
“Ee klha youmen aw 3 bl,ktheer w Ana raj3.”
“Ee hy,” “wallah asf bs ma'6n tr'6a,” “l7'6a bs2lha”
“Lil, Lil,” he called me. I was so into my phone.
“LILY,” he yelled.
“Haaaa, sorry sorry ma sm3t, and please lower your voice mani nag9a nas t3rfni." I said.
"Rana is asking if she can add you On snapchat?” He asked
“Like 5 minuets ago I told you it's too private!!!! Ali please!!!” I said pissed off.
“Sm3ti?? Gltlk bs ma tsm3een,” he said.
I turned my gaze back to my phone and glued it.
“Lil!!”
“Lil”
He waved his hand front of my face.
“What?? You want to give her my phone number too?” I said angrily.
“Relaaaax I'm sorry, but she asked me w mo m9dga that it's too private.” He said.
“Okay 9dgt.”
“Lily please,”
Suddenly a girl came to me. “ are you Lily alflani the designer?” She asked.
“Ammmm,”
“OH MY GOD FINALLY I SAW YOU!!!!!” “I LOVE YOU SO MUCH LILY YOURE MY FAVORITE.” She yelled.
Suddenly everyone in the mall gathered around me, and they want to take a photo with me.
“Ali lazm nmshi bsr3aa,” I said. We stood up and Ali was walking behind me and pushing people away. Paparazzi started to take photos. No please no.
I called my mother.
“Mom please send the guards to Melbourne central,” o said
“Okay okay!!” She said.
10 minuets and guards were here.
we hopped to the black car and I gave one of the guards my car key so he can bring my car back home.
