Wain il3ageed Abu Sh'hab?

*This fresh post is dedicated to Bin3agul ;-)


"Yamow, ana kteer khayfe 3la ibin 3ammi..."
"te2bireeny 7beebtii Allah yreddo bssalama ib jah inNabi ya 7a2"
.

I'm watching Bab il7ara, 7ad il indimaaj, sitting in my favourite spot on the sofa, all curled up and covered in a little blanket, when X comes in.

"Hala 7beebii", I say absently. My eyes fixed on the screen.

"Glitter babe, 3indy lich salfa", he says.

"Ok 7abeebi, can it wait till the commercial time? "

"Glitteeeeer", and he stands between me and the TV, "Come one..!! "

I look up at him, and there's a twinkle in his eyes. Hmmmm shakelha salfa ma tet6awwaf. I'm intrigued. I pat the space right next to me to invite him over. He comes and sits next to me, all smiles and says the following:

"Mishari wants to get married"
And I couldn't help but squeel with delight..

Mishari is one of X's close friends, and I simply adooore him. He has a strong well-toned body that is in sharp contrast with his doe-eyed baby face.

"Who? when? do I know her? I hope she's worthy of him.... "

X raises his hand while laughing to stop my ongoing questions.
"The thing is .... " and he looks me straight in the eyes, "He wants YOU takh6obeen lah".

"Mee ?!! " I ask, surprised and flattered at the same time.

"Yes". X nods, "He told me to ask you, and he said he trusts your judgment, and that he's sure you're going to find him a suitable bride ".

How sweet :-)
Didn't I just say I ADORE him hal rayyal?
Etlomoony?!!

Anyways,
I start thinking,,
who do I know that would be perfect for Mishari?

Hamsa..
yes yes YES. HAMSA.
Ma yabeelha tafkeer.

Hamsa is my sweet, delicate cousin.
Tall and feminie, sweet and demure. Her hair is soft as silk, and her voice is merely a whisper.

My God, I'm a genius.
I should really start me a match-making service.

I can just picture them together.
A perfect couple.
THE perfect couple.
No, scratch that last sentence.
THE perfect couple are Sweetness and Flan.
Ok ok, they can be THE second perfect couple.
6ab3an X and I excluded ;-)
