Chapter 2 (Aya'POV)

Whatching him leave the coffeshop while he was shouting at me on the top of his voice made my heart hammer against my ribcage ... Way to go Aya I've just created a huge scene ... Apparenty every single one in the shop eyed that situatuon and now they were all stabbing me with their gazes ! Waiting, anticipating and hoping to get a reaction from me and I disappointed them greatly because all what I have managed to do was to let go of that breath I didnt know I was holding ..
As I looked to my right I saw that handsome and kind man who have helped me , turning to face him I stuttered "Umm Umm, thank you! It... it was very kind of you to... to umm... to help me"
"Well your welcome, but he requsted the manager and I just came to his assistance" he stated in an as a matter of factly tone
Looking extreamly confused I opened my mouth to speak but I couldn't form any words , my mind was only saying one thing AYA YOU ARE GETTING FIRED !!
Then he spoke again but this time with a gentler tone " I'm Jacob the son of the owner of this place ... My dad is the person who hired you but I acctually run this business , I was travelling when he hired you but I knew about you . He said you are very honest and kind lady but he missed something that is very obvious .... You are very beautiful too"
Staring up at him trying to form words after his statment-complement-flirt I finally overcame the huge cloud in my brain and snapped " Listen I an very thankful for your help I know for sure if you weren't there this would've ended extreamly badly but from what I know bosses do NOT flirt with their employees so if you will excuse me"
"Hey, hey, hey! I didn't make you uncomfortable did I I don't mean to flirt I was just stating a fact but if you don't like the way I speak go ahead draw the line and I will never cross it" he said clearly looking hurt.
"I am sorry that I have snapped at you .... umm I guess I would draw the line where it comes to flirting" he nodded and I continued " anyway what makes you help a muslima like me?"
He chuckled and looked me in the eyes and said "My family has a soft spot for muslims"
I scrunched my face and asked " what do you mean a soft spot"
"I've just turned muslim and my half brother is one" whith that he finally winked and left me standing there with utter shock.

As the weeking passed I was unpaking my boxes and never ending bags finally I could look at my room without feeling the urge to flee from horror . Although its not fully unpacked my queen sized bed is finally free from boxes and is finally tucked for the first day since I came to this beautiful country I finally was able to sleep on it! -super comfy-
As I stood infront of this huge bulding with its ginormous pillars and beautiful green ground and its mesmerising fountains only one thing came to my mind and I said it loudly "الحمد لله- thank the mighty lord!" Havent realised I've said it that loud until I saw a weried expression on some faces and when Diana gave me a nudge . " I'm sorry I didnt realise I said it out loud" I said biting by lower lip .

Hugging me she squealed " It's okay, I understand.. Now GO live your dream"

Knocking on the door of the administrator I prayed that he answers his door quickly so I don't get to be late to my first lecture. OH MY GOOOD!!! MY FIRST LECTURE YAAAY!!!
"Cone in" the administrator said. Opening the door I stepped in saying " Um Hello . I'm Aya Assaf.. umm"
Before I could continue my blabber he interrupted "Aya Assaf ! What a pleasure to meat you,come on sit here.." motioning to me to sit on the chair on the other side of his huge office desk I sat eagerly waiting for his response "So Ms . Assaf how do you like it here?" Amd with this question the cold ice broke and we spoke for a good hour about my country the possible difficulties I my face here as the conversation came to an end he handed me the papaers and told me not to upset the people who voted for my scholarship ... weird right ?
