He says: I’m Muslim.
As he brings the double shot of rum to his lips.
I imagine the way it burns as it slides down his throat.
He winces, then smashes the glass against table.
Everyone turns and cheers,
then they go back to their conversations.
He says it again — I swear.
I say: I know.
He looks at me with sad eyes.
Wallahi - he says,
still trying to convince me.
I say: I know.
I watch his eyes turn to glass as he downs another.
I swear I am Muslim - he slurs
I say: I know.
No— he says— you’re judging me, look
and he holds his hands over his ears and he begins to recite.
And I put my hand over his as people begin to stare.
And I say: I know.
And he begins to cry, and his tears look ancient, and his face contorts, and his mouth is open but there is no sound, and his body shudders.
And he tries again and again, never getting past Bismillah.
He keeps on saying “No you don’t understand I am Muslim, I am Muslim, I am Muslim, I am Muslim”
I know, I say.
And he holds the bottle to his mouth and he almost swallows it whole, and he says “marry me Aasiyah, I am a good man, my father is a hafiz of Quran,
it is just this Dunya, it is this world that has killed me”
I know, I say
I know.
The lovely Megan Fox in ” Love the way you lie”

Is it just me..or is BAMF Dominic Monaghan a cutie? And I’m not much of a Megan Fox fan (She’s pretty but not my kind of chick) but they make a cute couple minus the hate, lol.
PS. Rhianna is sexy. mm mm mmmm.
Whatever pain I was feeling has turned into to hope. I had a great conversation, because my best friend knows just the right thing to say.
Now I’m looking forward not to the past. There’s nothing there for me now, and whatever mistakes I’ve made only made me stronger for the next lesson. So, I’ll leave the questions unanswered.
Thank you boo!
PS. I may do things later than others, but I always do it big!
There seems to be a lot of Sunday shows that are watchable as of late. I watched homeland which was pretty good. DEXTER is always amazing, still waiting for the next book. I just snuck in on some of pan am and that seems interesting. It reminds me of Catch Me If You Can, only because of the uniforms and bags and such. I dig a few of the actors so I might have to check that out a bit more. Last but not least Boardwalk Empire is back, I didn’t get to watch the second episode, but I dug the first season so we’ll see.
I couldn’t be any more obsessed with empire, but then Derek Luke pops up! Ahhh this show is so good. And the music… Oo-we, especially Jamal’s stuff is hot.
As much as they all be tripping I adore every Lyon even Luscious’ crazy killer self :)

You should never hate anyone, even your worst enemies. Everyone has something good about them. You have to find the redeeming quality and love the person for that
