Alicia woke up the next morning and dressed quickly for the University as every morning, she joined her best friend in front of the school entrance but today something changed. They didn't talk about new discoveries anymore...
- Alicia, my dear! Here you are at last!
- Hello Sarah!
- I have a picture of him! He is so beautiful.
Alicia didn't need to question her because she knew who she was talking about. She turned her eyes around and stared at the screen her best friend put in front of her.
- he's not bad!
- Alicia, oh my God and that's all you can say? But my dear, don't you see how beautiful he is!
He was handsome, yes, but he did not captivate the young woman, unlike her friend.
- I'll show you another picture! Here she is!
The young woman looked carefully at the picture but it was not the brother of the Sheikh she was looking at but another man on his right, he looked very similar.
- Who is that one!
- It's her brother, the Sheikh! Made Sarah by grimacing!
The irises of Alicia remained cloîtrés on the photo as if they were stuck and it is when the bell resounded in a start her spirit returns to her. She gave the phone back to Sarah without caring that the latter was talking to her.
That day Alicia did not pay attention in class while this man was in her thoughts. Even the teachers noticed the absence of her attention:
- ...Miss Miller? I want your attention.
- Excuse me, teacher!
It was the second teacher who had called out to her during the day. When the teacher's back was turned, Sarah leaned over and whispered to her:
- Are you sure you're okay! I can't understand you since this morning!
- Yes, I'm fine. I missed some sleep last night!
Sarah was worried about her friend, and she knew her, and she could see that Alicia was lying to her, but she was stubborn, so she wasn't going to say anything. So she concentrated on the class but looked at Alicia from time to time to see if everything was okay.
When class ended, Sarah and Alicia walked to Sarah's car and headed home. Sarah talked but Alicia remained silent. She was startled when Alicia wrote:
- ... I found? A white dress will do!
- Yes!
Alicia felt guilty because she didn't listen to anything her friend said. Fortunately the silence was made in the car what avoided to the young woman, excuses.
When Sarah parked in front of Alicia's house, the young woman got out and greeted her friend before going home. She greeted her mother and sisters and then went up to her room to do her homework.
The days passed quickly and the day of departure arrived. The young woman was in the jet with Sarah. Sarah was taking care of her outfit while Alicia tried to calm her heartbeat. Yes, Alicia hated airplanes even if she loved to see new things. Every time the plane shook, she felt like it was going to crash:
- I don't understand how you can stay calm and take care of your clothes when the plane is just shaking since a while ago, I'm sure there's something and the pilot doesn't say a word so as not to scare us. We don't even hear the voice of this stewardess as in all planes!
- Because we are in a private jet and we are the only passengers so stop making a drama! Look at the picture of the hot guys on instagram instead.
- Yeah right!
The plane shook much more violently than the previous ones.
- That's it, we're dead. I can't die now, I'm too young.
Sarah rolled her eyes and looked out the window before laughing:
- No, we're just landing!
-Landing or falling?
- Landing, young lady!
When the plane landed, Alicia breathed a sigh of relief. She waited for a while and when Sarah got off, she almost ran off the plane, which made Sarah laugh. When they were on the ground the first thing that touched them was the intense heat of the place. A piece of sugar was put on their tongue and they were put in the limousine of the hotel where she was going. Alicia didn't stay there as long as she was amazed by the landscape of the country.
- Someone will have to face us to visit this wonderful country...!
- Yes yes but I will have the dizzy because you gesticulate too much I have difficulty to see all that you show me...
Alicia was far too excited to listen to her best friend. She was pointing to a church, a square or a silver sari that she had seen through the window of a store...
When the car parked in front of the big hotel, the young woman remained with her mouth open and it was her friend who pushed her to get her out because the driver was beginning to feel like a big fool to hold out his hand to a young woman who was only looking at the hotel entrance...
- Well I know you like to travel but...
Alicia was far ahead of her because as she spoke she wanted to take some tickets to give to the driver...
- Eyyy Alicia... But wait for me!!
She ran behind her and the triumphant entrance she wanted to make was ruined but too bad the goal now and the most difficult of all is to channel Alicia take their room number and get into their room then close the door...
Alicia was a tornado. She loved adventure and it made her look childish but despite that she was the more mature of the two girls. Sarah is an interesting little girl. She has in her dressing room the latest Gucci suitcase that has not even been on the market for 3 days. She has all the makeup tools of the biggest brands that exist. Basically, she's a real model. You might be wondering why she studied history and not modeling, well she just loves history for some reason...
Well... Sarah managed to get Alicia into the room and put the card in a drawer while Alicia was already jumping on the bed she had chosen...
- I feel like we're in Hawaii...
- Yeah it's beautiful here! Said Sarah with a careless air...
- Beautiful??? She says with a vexed air... No Sarah it is splendid, extraordinary and incredibly beautiful.
- Yeah okey but I must rest I am exhausted...
Sarah let herself go on the bed, already sighing with tiredness and the young woman herself, took her headphones and listened to music while starting to write in her diary...
Dear diary,
It's beautiful here...
