So I'm sitting at home getting ready to work on my essay (khala9t 53 words out of 2,500, btw so it's going great..) when my phone rings and it's mother dearest:
Mama: Aloo..goomay badlay o ta3alay weld 3amich FLAN AL FLANI is coming over.
FLAN AL FLANI = a cousin who i've never met and have rarely heard about who's been living abroad for the past 12 years.
Um Manaf: Enzain? shako ana ayey?
Mama: La goomay o ta3alay salmay! O lebsay 3adil (Translation: besich jeans o uggs o please for the love of God saway shay ib sha3rich cuz it's scaring the kids)
Asaker el teliphone minha wadeg 3ala my sister:
Um Manaf: ..maly khelg ayey
Sister: Adry ham ana! She threatened me Um Manaf...she said she'll kill me if I don't make polite conversation. Kill me.. as in dead..as in ..bye bye.
Um Manaf: I wonder shyayba back after all these years
Sister: I know...I wonder shimwadeeh hnaak for all these years a9lan
Um Manaf: Maybe metzawej wa7da hnaak..
Sister: ..yeahh...or maybe he's running away from something here..
Um Manaf: Or maybe he's gay?
Sister: And he has a lover...
Um Manaf: Called Paulo...
Sister: ...Or Raul..
Um Manaf: Yeah..kinda makes sense..
Sister: I know..
Um Manaf hangs up from Sister and calls mama 3ala6ool to tell her the juicy gossip that she and Sister had just figured out..
Um Manaf: Aloo Mama, don't you think it's kind of weird that he's been there for so long? .. Me and Sister were just talking about it and..
Mama: What's weird about it? He finished jam3a and now works bil sefara...why what did you think he was doing there?
Um Manaf: umm..........gotta go bye!
