I spent the rest of the two classes outside comforting Shamsa. I've never seen her like this before. She was drowning in her own tears. Could someone really cry that much? We sat down outside class in our ditching area, and had water and tissues all over the floor. Shamsa buried her head in her hands and rocked back and forth, sobbing as she did so, the tears streaming down her face. Her cheeks were wet as i whipped the tears away. "Shamsa please stop crying" i demanded. She cried even more and placed her hands on her heart, protecting it from shattering into pieces. I patted her back and tried my best to calm her down. She felt helpless and worthless, that's the effect of love. It makes the strongest person weak, and the weakest person strong. What's even harder than falling in love was falling out of it. Shamsa already fell deep in the whole of love, the deep tunnel of both joy and misery. Hamdan walked up the stairs and caught sight of Shamsa crying. He looked at me with his eyebrows jumbled in confusion. "Shamsa are you okay?" he asked with sympathy. She didn't reply, and neither did i. "Hamdan it's okay, go to class Habibi" i stated with a smile. I walked towards him as he was leaving and whispered in his ear. "Talk to Nayef, and let him fix this mess" i whispered. "Okay" he replied and left a quick kiss on my cheek.
It was the end of the day and i walked Shamsa towards her driver's car. As she was opening the door, she spotted Nayef placing Angelica in his car. Shamsa felt weak, and suddenly fell to the floor. I ran to her and carried her up. "Shamsa! Shamsa!" I yelled at the top of my lungs. I patted her cheeks and tried opening her eyes. She wasn't waking up or speaking. I spotted Hamdan crossing the street so i called him. He ran towards us and sat on the floor in shock. He got out a bottle of water and spilled some water on her face. She didn't even nudge. He stood up and saw Khalaf talking on the phone outside the car. He ran towards him, and told him what happened. Khalaf dropped his phone when he heard what happened and he ran towards us with Hamdan. "Shamsaaaaa!" he screamed. He was trembling from fear, sweat was drizzling down his forehead, and he was panicking. "What have i done to her?" he yelled. Her driver called the ambulance to come as soon as possible to take her to the hospital. Khalaf tried spraying perfume on his hand and put it to her nose so she would wake up but she didn't. We were all frightened, and certainly didn't know what to do. The ambulance was heard as it was making it's way towards us. The flashing blue and red lights and loud sirens were the school's main attention now. It parked next to Shamsa's driver's car and they pulled out the gurney and placed her on it. I went in and sat next to her. The ambulance was filled with many medical tools, boxes, drawers, and handles. They immediately put an oxygen mask on her nose and mouth to regulate her breathing cycle. They also checked her blood pressure, and found out she had high blood pressure.
We reached the hospital and they took her to the emergency room. We were back to the same spot we were in when Hamdan had his accident. We all sat down, and were all worried. "It's all your fault!" i shouted at Khalaf. "I know!" he yelled back with anger. "Khaloof, why did you do such a sick move to her?" "you know she loves you" Hamdan stated to him. "I don't know, okay, i don't know!" Khalaf shouted. "So where's she now?" i asked in a rude way. "I told her i had an emergency and left her in school" Khalaf replied. "But why? why didn't you go out with her?"i said sarcastically. "Cause i love Shamsa" he replied with honesty. "Oh really? why didn't you think of that before talking to Angelica?" i asked. He didn't reply, just put his head down in shame. "Khaloof, when they allow us to see her go in and apologise" Hamdan mentioned to Khalaf. "Yea and i'll go get her flowers, Layla can you come with me so you can help me pick some for her?" he asked me. "Yea okay" i answered. "Don't take your time, and don't test my patience!" Hamdan mentioned before i walked away with Khalaf. We walked towards the flower shop, and it had all sorts of flowers. From daisies to roses, from tulips to sunflowers, and from red roses to white roses. "Hmm, what do you think she'll like?" Khalaf questioned me. "I think you should get her red and white roses" i replied. He told the worker to wrap up a bunch of red and white roses and wrote a card. He held the bouquet of beautiful white and bloody red roses and walked back to her room.
"The nurse says she's awake now, Khalaf go in" Hamdan stated as we got to her room. He walked in slowly towards her room, and opened the door. Their eyes caught sight, and smiles were drawn on their faces. Shamsa turned her head to show that she didn't want to talk to Khalaf. "Hey babe" he stated with a shy voice as he gave her the bouquet. "Thanks" she replied sharply. "I'm sorry Habibti" he uttered. "Sorry isn't enough, i want to know the reason why you did that to me?" Shamsa stated. "I don't know" he yelled. Shamsa jumped from fear and tears started rolling down her face. "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, i didn't mean to scare you like that my love" Khalaf said with affection. He reached for cheek and planted a kiss on it. "I'm jealous from the moon that gets to know all your midnight thoughts and secrets, your sheets cause they get to touch every part of you as you fall asleep, but the sun is the luckiest cause when you're half asleep, groggy, and unaware of how beautiful you look, the sun kisses you with it's sunlight, i'm jealous " She said to him as she was battling with her tears. "I love you and will always love you" Khalaf replied with a kiss on the palm of her hand. "I promise you, i will never hurt you again, i promise" he stated as he was pleading her to forgive him. "Don't brake me, for my heart is just a fragile glass that could be shattered at any moment" she stated. "I will cherish your heart cause your love is running through my veins" he uttered.
We reached the hospital and they took her to the emergency room. We were back to the same spot we were in when Hamdan had his accident. We all sat down, and were all worried.
