On my way to work, I decided to park the car and go walking in the streets of down town Cairo.
I figured out that I should treat myself.
Had this urge to feel good, so I did walk to the streets of my university, where I spent 7 years of my life learning. I went to cilantro to get my favorite cup of coffee; my treat..

"Latte' skimmed milk please" was my request, and to my surprise, the cilantro guy remembered me, and gave me this big smile. While stirring my cup, the guy noticed my engagement ring and congratulated me for the engagement. His smile and good attitude made my day. And then I realised I needed to feel loved again.

For all my life I've been loved by everyone. I was never a hated person. But now, I feel hated. Although from a few people, but I still feel like I can be hated. I didnt want to go back to work where I will meet the boss who hates me and the colleague who bugs me. I wanted to stay at cilantro and maybe work from there. From a place where I belong and feel safe. I missed feeling secure.

But then I thought, maybe my boss hates me and is driving me nuts day and night, but on the other side the most beautiful thing happened to me; I got engaged to the most beautiful man on this planet earth. A man I love, care for, cherish, and adore. So why should I worry about her and the job when they are not even a priority in my life? Why worry when I have him by my side. And only then I started to smile. I enjoyed the walk in the chilly weather and enjoyed drinking my skinny latte'.

He then called me, and in his voice I felt the love we had for each other growing stronger. He said the most adorable words. His statements touched me, and made me the happiest person alive. I knew right then and there that I will be happy for the rest of my life (ISA)... And I also knew that I won't worry about anything as long as he's by my side.
