She put her cell phone aside, And was about to look through the window when
she realized that the waiter was looking at her again, which made her feel a little
uneasy.. After all, she was sitting for a long time. A lemon juice would be better
this time, right..?
Waiting for her new order to come, she found her hands grabbing her cell
phone again, feeling furious at "Magdy” because he put her in that situation..
She dialed his number again and:
- The cell phone you are trying to reach may be switched off or unavailable....
The cold mechanic voice answered her, so she placed the cell phone aside
feeling horrified..
Maybe he got bored and decided not to come at all..?!
Or even worse: he found someone better..!!
Sexier..?!
Smarter..?!
She tried to think about something else to prevent her mind from dealing with
those thoughts, So she grabbed that novel she started reading yesterday, and
decided to read a couple of pages before calling him again ..But words just kept
running before her eyes with no meaning at all.. Five whole minutes passed
before she finally realized that she was still struggling to understand - uselessly
- the first sentence. Not a single word passed through her brain..
Rereading it again and again hoping to understand it, and hopefully go to the
next sentence didn’t make a difference.. Just meaningless letters lined next to
each other, staring at her.. She put the novel aside after she finally realized that
she wasn't in the mood for reading.. She stared at the glass of water in front of
her blankly, then at her suitcase anxiously..
