It's been 2 hours already I'm tired a lot happened today, my father telling me to come here, meeting my first friend Hayat, and also goin to work,Omar consoling me and this program every thing has been tiring all I wanna do is go home and sleep but I dont think that's happening anytime soon after a while I was bored because of all the talk and start watching tiktoks

I think the program has ended and by the program I meant the gifting and talking program it's about to be 9:00pm and this is past my bed time as I always come home tired and it kind of become a habit so I started feeling sleepy as I was as well hungry, and I heard to most beautiful word today it was time to eat and host told everyone to go to the buffet according to their table number and their were about 20 buffet for the 20 tables, And ours was on buffet 5 and Amal and I went to the buffet together with her little brother who I found out his name was Besam and it's a beautiful name for a cute boy like him he also has manners and also too mature for his age anyways there were different kinds of food and it felt great I want to eat everything I heard Amal laugh when I turned to her not only her but also Omar was laughing I looked at them weirdly I waited until they were finished, after a while they stopped laughing I asked amal why she was laughing she told me the I was looking at the food was like as if I have found the love of my life, I can feel my face heating up because not only did she see me but also omar has and that was very embarrassing oh god, after that we took our food and went to seat in our table I was talking with amal and omar while t my brothers were talking with eachother and my father was talking with Abu omar and Umu omar they look like they were having business conversation as for my brothers they also look like they are having a serious conversation they have a frown on their face and I also think it's about me as I heard them say my name few times as they were not even trying to hide it so the night went on and it was about to be 6o'clock everyone was goin home as well but I don't want to go with my family as there face is scaring me while we were goin out I asked Omar and Amal if they could take me home in which they agreed but while I was goin to there car my father stopped me and asked where I was goin when I was goin to reply Omar told him he would be taking me home but my father told him that it wont be needed since I'm goin with them omar was gonna protest but I stopped him saying he could go, he just nodded and went with Amal while I entered the car in the back while my brothers sat in front and fauzan was driving while Hamza was on the passenger seat they all had a scowl on their face which was not a good thing
