Saif gestured me to go to the balcony with him because the living room was too loud. I followed him out into the wide balcony and I awkwardly stood there waiting for Saif to talk to me. 

"5air feek shay Saif?" I asked, trying to kill the silence. "Ha? Um.. la bs kint aby agoolch.. umm.. you look beautiful." He finally blurted out, staring into my eyes. My cheeks suddenly turned apple red and I looked down to the floor, my smile not escaping my face. "Mashkoor Saif, you don't look that bad yourself." That was cheesy, Yasmeen! He started laughing and asked if I wanted to go back inside. I nodded and made my way back to Reem and Layan. 

Reem was dressed in a gorgeous, black dress that had studs on the shoulders. It was Japanese cut and was till right above her knees with black heels that had studs on the back. Layan wore a long sleeved, gold jumpsuit with a black 7jab and nude heels. As I approached my friends, Jumanah came and stood right in front of me, in her sequined, silver dress that reached her knees and was short sleeved with nude heels, and said "Chftch itsolfen weya Saif! Yaso, please tell me mafy shay bainkum." giving me a serious look. "Juju! Shda3wa laa no way! Bs kan yaby ys2alny 3an shay!" I replied, a bit too defensively. I didn’t want to lie to her, but I couldn't let her question my friendship with Saif. Or whatever was happening between us.

 After a few hours, only a few of us were still at Jumanah's house, so we decided we'd all go sit on the balcony. Me, Jumanah, Reem, Layan, Faisal and Saif went out to the balcony and started chatting. Saif came and sat next to me on the porch swing and asked if we could talk. Everyone was in their own world that no one was going to notice us talking, so I said okay. "Yasmeen, enty tadren mnn emta e7na en3arf ba3a'9?" he asked me, while staring at me. "Ee, mnn nursery." I replied, confused. "Inzain tithakrayn shlon t3arafna 3la ba3a'9?" "umm, laa sorry." Now I was really confused. "Inzain ana bagoolch el89a.. Ayam nursery, I didn't have any friends. So one day, kna klna nl3ab fel sandbox ela the kids decided to throw sand on me. 3ad you didn't" At that moment, he looked into my eyes and flashed me a smile. "W gmty w s7abteny from the box and we ran to the swings on the other side of the playground. After that, you gave me half of your lunch and a juice box and we sat on the swings till the end of recess." Saif never took his eyes off me while telling me that story and I couldn’t help but notice that I was blushing. We sat their quietly for a few minutes. "Saif, I can't believe you even remember that happening. A9lan why do you remember that?" I said, growing curious. "Because from that day, you were the kindest, prettiest and the most genuine girl I had ever met." Saif replied, looking away because of how shy he became saying that. I didn’t know what to say! I was speechless. Maknt adry Saif was so kind... "Yasmeen! Yasi! Yalla we're leaving waynch?" Reem was shouting from inside the house. 

I was so invested in my conversation with Saif that I didn’t even notice that everyone went inside. I flashed Saif a smile and ran inside. I was so overwhelmed with emotions. Reem and Layan were staring and me the whole ride home. I knew that they would eventually ask me why I was being so quiet, but I couldn't stop thinking about the conversation I had with Saif. I couldn't even act like I was busy with my phone because it died, so I just decided to act sleepy. I frequently would yawn and 7mdlah they bought it. We finally got to my place and I gave the girls hugs goodbye. I ran up to my room to charge my phone. *Dling! Dling!* my phone kept ringing from the BBMs and twitter notifications I was getting. I scanned through the BBMs, which were mostly broadcasts, then decided to check twitter. A couple of mentions from people tweeting about who was at the party and a DM. 

I smiled to myself when I saw that it was Saif  that had DMed me, even though I knew it was him from the start. Yasmeen, stop it! Hay Saif el weirdo ely kla kan y5zch. I blocked out the voice in my head and opened up the DM. "Heyy Yasmeen! I enjoyed talking to you bel 7afla today :D bs knt Aby as2lch etha you could add me on bbm? Pin:2********" I replied "yeah, me too! I'll add you now" I switched to bbm and added Saif. 

 *BBM chat with Saif* 
Saif: hey 
 Yasmeen: hello :D 
Saif: sha5barich x? 
Yasmeen:7mdlah and you x? 
Saif: I'm good x bagoolch watch this video on YouTube :D link: xxxxxxxx 

 And that's how it all started. We started talking about random things and sending each other funny pictures and YouTube videos. Random chats grew into good morning and goodnight conversations, which grew into 24/7 conversations. And my feelings towards Saif grew stronger than ever. I was falling for him, and fast. I didn't know how to stop it, and a big part of me didn't want to. 

 -A week after he added me- 

*bbm chat with Saif* 
yasmeen: good morning xx 
Saif: morning. 
 Yasmeen: feek shay Saif? 
Saif: w inty sh3alaych? 
Yasmeen: Saif! Your my friend... I care about you... 
Saif: well don't. 
Yasmeen: umm.. Okay bye. 

I was pretty pissed at Saif. Ya3ny he's the one that followed me on twitter, and he's the one that asked me to add him on bbm, and now? He wants me to just not care. The school day passed by pretty slow and my anger turned into worrying. I knew that I was falling for Saif because if it were anyone else I wouldn't even bother thinking about what happened. When I got home, I noticed that Saif had bbmed me. And he had tweeted me. AND DMed me. Now I was confused.
