The Curse Of Curves 1

If only I was more confident like Sager my brother. He's that type of guy who makes all the girls go crazy, he's handsome, tanned, and flirty. You can describe him using two words PRINCE CHARMING.


But me ? lets start. Yes I'm smart, very actually, but i keep my smarty brains to my grades. Do i have a hot body ? well, I'm tall and have a very muscular structure. I always go to the gym to work out, not for girls but for my health so i think that yes i do have a hot body. I have very curly hair, my mom keeps complaining "entah mabatge9 sha3rck ha el kesha ?" I just laugh. I'm naturally tanned like Sager, but i don't stand out like he does. I get compliments of how sharp my nose is, and sadly my violet eyes don't attract people as they never notice it, at times it seems more black than violet. My father says i got my eyes from his mother, I heard that she was one of the most beautiful women in Kuwait in the old times but i never met her, actually i never met any of my Dads family. They aren't happy with my fathers marriage to my mother, who is from Dubai since he was already married to a Kuwaiti woman.

In nature, I'm a shy person so I'm not very noticed by women. Unlike Sager, he walks through the door, flashes that one hundred million dollar smile, looking proud and strong, everyone turns around to look at him, literally everyone !! Even married women !! But I just walk behind him, looking at the floor.

My mother asks me why am i not like Sager, proud of how handsome i am. She tries to boost up my confidence level but i just shudder and ask her to stop.

"Faris, 7ayati, ent jameel wallah ityanen, ba3ad ent a7la men Sagoory, e'67ck w bet'thaweb el dinyah kelha"

If my smile melts others, it hadn't melted a single girl. I'm not saying I'm DYING to get to know a girl and all that but a boy needs to become a man sometime.

Sager, who is older than me by three years, is a player but who can blame him ? Girls practically throw themselves at him, and he loves it. "Faris, el banat ma3ndom 3agl, shafo wa7d yehabl 5ala9 y3goon 3mrhom 3allai, mayfakroon walah, w aga6e3 galbhom a7sanly l2nhom mayfakroon ef ta9arofat'hom, 9a7 i like it when i get their attention but akeed i wont give her my time, she isn't worth it. El bent a9lan lazm itkoon thakiyah, doesn't allow her emotions to move her and that's the girl i want, that's the girl I'd love and keep" I've heard girls cry over the phone just for a little bit of attention from him but he ignores them.


"So are you looking for that special someone" I asked one night, when we were cruising on JumeirahRoad.

"no, i never look, but I'll know if i see her" He answered while checking out 8 girls, maybe more, squished in a Range Rover, with windows down, smiling all at him.

That same night, after one of the girls winked at him clearly sending a message to Sager to follow them which he did but then he noticed that they didn't stop so he can chat with them, after 15 minutes he got bored and we went back home.

As i was saying, that night, i went online. Abdullah my cousin from my mother's side was online too, he's a year older than i am but we aren't very close, we just have those special cousin moments.
He started talking to me, and suggested he'd include me in one of his conversations with a friend from school.

3abood - Halla halla bel shabab el 7lweeen, aya meet faris, and faris meet aya.

Aya - oh my god, entah mb emwagf hal invites maltck el sa5eefa 9a7 ? Abdullah i dont want to talk to a random guy or your friends !!!!!! WHY CANT YOU UNDERSTAND THAT ?

3abood - balach aya, hes my cousin Faris :S

F - i can leave if im causing trouble

3abood - la latseeer ma3allaik mnha, Aya hes just my cousin shu baygool ya3ni ?

Aya - *sighs* FINE !

'I concluded that she has problems which involves guys. And if i am not mistaken, Abdullah is one of them. But why is she still talking to him then ? She could easily leave'

F- looool

3abood- ayooooya balach, hatha faris my czn elah doom agoolch 3anah :p

'He talked to her about me?'

Aya - whatever, ellah ygool i care who he is, entah dom u invite guys abdula, meta batwagf ?

3abood- enti shu it5arfeen, wallah mara i invited guys, enti knti itgolily invite ur frnds im bored :p 3agaiti 3allai a7een ? 3adi 3adi put the blame on me (K)

'Wow, some messed up girl she is'

Aya - whatever, your crazy

'She doesn't seem like a girl who would ask Abdullah to invite guys, she did get angry when he invited me, and I'm his cousin. HIS ONLY LOYAL COUSIN. Hhhhmm, too confusing, let me try to change the subject'

F- batseer bacher 3abood ?

3abood- Madry ya5i, ite9al 7amood Al-X kamen mara yetrajani ayii, ent sayer ?

F- La La mb fayj

3abood - doomck tera :p

F- hahahaha

3abood - enzain, Ayooya, enti meta batrdeen i missed you :(
Aya- ba3adnah ef paris, inshallah 3ogob kamn youm
We continued talking, the three of us, about random subjects. But thru the whole conversation she has never talked to me directly, so how in the world would she ever ask Abdullah to invite guys to their conversations, i should not forget that Abdullah is a liar, and he makes alot of things up. Later on, she added without asking but i accepted.
Aya- hello ?

F - hey lol

Aya - dont tell 3abood i added you, he'll freak out

F- lol laish ?
Aya- Baygool enti a3g 3mri 3al guys ! which i don't !
F- aha
Aya- so how r u ?
F- good :D and you ?
The conversation between me and 3abood and Aya got nudged.
I opened the convo and Abdulah was the one who sent us a nudge.
3abood - wainckm ? balackom sekato mara we7dah

'Shit, What am i supposed to say now ?'

Aya- l2nah ana lazm aseeeeer yalla bye !!!

'Saved by aya, i guess :p'

The conversation between me and Aya started blinking. I opened it.

Aya- I'll appear offline and we'll keep talking :D

F- ok :)

She said her goodbyes and appeared offline.

Aya- back !

F- welcome back :D :D

Aya- heeey

F- why didnt u just tell Abdullah u wanted to talk to me ? LOOL

Aya- he'll keep reminding me of my past !!! /:

F- your past ? :S

Aya- ent may59ck about it

F- ok lol i was just asking

She started talking about Paris and about her summer holiday, then she REALLY had to go offline to sleep.

Abdullah was still online, so i opened a new conversation with him.

F- agoolck 3abood, 3adi at3araf 3alaiha ?

3abood - kaifck, bas hei gaylah she doesnt want to befriend guys anymore :S

I frooze 'doesnt want to befriend guys anymore ? why did she add me then ?'

F- ana se2alt'ha galat 3adi

3abood - Faroos, tera hai shes a bitch, 6a7at ef mshkela w i helped her out then she promised me she'd stay away from guys but since she doesnt mind being friends with you i guess she didnt learn anything. baini w bainck, lat7ebha. it7aml, ana rbee3i 7abaha w shu sawatbah wallah. 7lailah.

( this is what i call the " special cousin moments" )

After checking my e-mail, preparing my books and papers for school, changing into my boxers, I crashed on bed, layed down comfortably and i began

Thinking.

About.

Her.
