   For a month and a half, every day that passed, Razan was more depressed than the day before. Each day was titled as a differet kind of depression. The stress of finals and last minute assignments didn't help at all. The work load was pilling up on the both or them. Aseel did everything she could to cheer the both of them up. She tried to decrease the days and hours where Razan would be alone. She tried to make her avoid the library, in case she bumps into 7amad. Razan was still refusing the idea of seeing him. Although they have decided that the civil thing to do if they do bump into each other is to say hi and all but keep the conversation short and limited. After all, what they had wasn't nothing, it might have actually been the best thing ever.

   Aseel bumped into 7amad about 5 times since he got back from the spring break and every time he would plead with her to just give him 10 minutes with Razan, just 10. As much as she wanted him to talk to her, as much as she wanted them to work things out and get back together she couldn't do something Razan didn't want. She promised herself she would support her all the way.

   After all those days of spending hours and hours studying at home or at the coffee shop across the street she couldn't take it anymore. She wanted a new place to study at, a different place with different people. One Tuesday morning she woke up at 8 knowing Aseel would still be sleeping. She took a shower and got dressed into abercrombie navy blue sweatpants and a grey fit shirt. She pulled her hair up in a bun and just put on her cherry labello. She wrote a tiny note telling Aseel she's heading to the library and left it in the coffee table for her.

   In about two hours Aseel joined Razan at the library. She thought that if Razan insisted on studying at the library then she would stay with her incase anythings happens. Nothing interesting happened though, it was the usual. Both of them sat their making notes and learning things that needed to be learnt.

   Around 2 o'clock they left their things as they were and went downstairs to the cafeteria to grab something to eat. As soon as they stepped onto the ground floor and walked by the entrance to get to the the other side, Razan noticed someone very familiar walking out of the library and crossing the road, even though she could only see his back. She kept looking until that person disappeared. A feeling in her gut told her it was 7amad. The only thing she could think of was thank god he didn't see her. She was lucky he left the library before they bumped into each other.

   Razan got a salad and Aseel finally settled on a chicken sandwich. They grabbed their drinks from the fridge and went to the cashier to pay for their items. The took a 30 minute break to freshen up and to recharge their brains. They gave themselves enough time for the information to settle in and to disperse to the many files in their heads giving themselves more space for new information.

   They went back to studying until it was about 8 at night. Aseel had a group study session with a couple of people which would take at least 2 hours. Razan was too tired and had enough for the day so she decided to leave. She grabbed her belongings and placed everything in her back making sure she didn't leave anything behind. She went down the stairs to the ground floor and swiped her student ID as she walked out of the entrance.

   Just as she put her headphones on and pressed play on her ipod, she felt someone grabbing her arm so gently but it scared her. She jumped out of her place. She quickly turned around with her eyes wide open with fear and her heart beats accelerating by the second. She pulled her ipod out of her pocket and pressed the pause button as she took a very deep breath in attempt to slow down her heart. "You scared the hell out of me!"

   "Im sorry ma kan '3a9de, bs i called out for you masma3teeni..."
