Khadija:
After an awkward moment, I replied "Like? Come on Umar, you only think you like me but all your experiencing is an imprudent feeling that will cease to exist when you meet someone a whole lot prettier and innocent"
"You can believe whatever you wish to believe Khadija but…"
"Hey! There you both are!" Umar's dad interrupted.
"What are you two up to eh?" he asked jokily, watching us simultaneously.
We both stood there staring at one another in an uncomfortable silence - on my part anyway, before Umar whispered into my ear "We'll talk later".
Keeping his intensifying gaze on me for a few moments longer than necessary, he turned his attention to his dad and said "Erm, nothing dad… I was just telling Khadija how pretty she looks in green"
