The meeting.

We entered his house. 

I was really nervous about how things will go on... I couldn't go when it was me who requested it in first place. As soon as I did he just accepted and I couldn't believe it, it was way too easy and I was not prepared for it yet, but I was very happy about it in fact. Once we were in the living room he excused himself and left the room for a few minutes. I was extremely nervous, like "what to do?", "what to say?", "how to act?" It was way too much on my shoulders! But I couldn't walk back now, not when he was allowing me to.

When he came back I finally saw her, she was beautiful! and smiling. But it was curious... the way she walks I mean, like trying to don't make any noise. As soon as I stood up to greet her properly she put up her hands like "Stop" I asked myself if I was doing something wrong or what, then he laughed over my "what" face and her "please no" face, I was about to laugh hard but I just bit my low lip and remained motionless. He talked finally:

- She doesn't want us to make any sound in order to don't wake the baby up. He said smiling and then everything made sense to me, not the fact of the baby sleeping but the fact of me being there in such an embarrasing situation, him.

- Oh, it's okay. I said almost whispering so the baby won't wake up.

- Thanks. His sister reply and her voice was so nice. What were you waiting for? I asked myself, It's pretty obvious her voice was going to be that good since her brother has the best one. I smiled.

- Peace, I am Jody, nice to meet you. I told her and she walked quietly til she reached me and hugged me. I can't even describe the rain of emotions that I got in that moment, I could never explain how kind was Mahira to me since the beginning.

- Nice to meet you Jody, I am Mahira. I couldn't control my happiness and started crying. She felt my tears in her shoulder and push me away slowly til she had us face-to-face.

- Oh honey, what's wrong? She asked me and he came close to us.

- What's up baby? He asked as well a bit confused over my reaction.

- I'm just, I'm just so happy. It was all I was able to say while I came back to her warm shoulders, feeling her a part of my family since now on, feeling her as my own sister for real, feeling myself part of his life more than any other day, more than ever. And his sister just hugged me tight comforting me.

And while we were there, trying to calm me down, he has left the room one more time and I started asking myself if he got any mad at me and he maybe thought I was over reacting; he was not the type of guys who get mad at me over anything actually, he used to take anything I do in a good way. In fact I could do anything I please and he may smiled at me saying I am nut and I'll laugh with him. But this was different, I mean it was involving his family and I knew how important his family was for him. I started getting worry and stopped crying. Mahira asked me to sit down and she sat down next to me, holding my hand like asking me to chill. I was about to ask about him but he appeared up with tray. 

- I got some tea for you girls. He said with a huge smile over his face and that was it, moments like that used to remind me why I was crazily in love with him since some many years ago. He was different to the rest, he was maybe the same in a lot of boys stuff but he had his strong points that I used to love so badly.

- Thanks. His sister replied.

- Thank you. I said and smiled. 

He sat down in the furniture next to us and as his sister served us the tea, that tea that she didn't allow me to served even when I was on my way to do it, he held my hand. 

We started talking about a few things like how is her life and how is mine mostly, well, I can't say "talk" because as me as her were whispering, but he was just talking in her normal voice tone, which I found strange.

- Why are we whispering while you talk? I asked while I lifted up one of my eyebrowns and wore an "interrogation" face. It was just like I pulled a rope behind his back because he started laughing like a crazy and couldn't stop and so I did, except for his sister who was losing her mind over the baby waking up while we have fun, yet she was smiling & I could say she was having a good time as well.

It was probably one of the best days of my life, it was the beginning of a new stage; we were on our way to make things more serious and getting closer to the idea of a real family. I was ready, was I? Well, I've always been ready, but he was ready, it was him who at the end got all what he need in order to make a family next to me and I was just there, letting him hold my hand through this life and guide me to our destination, the one I could only catch with our holding hands.
