꣑ৎ 𝑳𝑶𝑽𝑬 𝑯𝑨𝑵𝑮𝑶𝑽𝑬𝑹
❝ VI ❞
𝒔𝒚𝒏𝒐𝒑𝒔𝒊𝒔 - you and vi are what some call and on and off fling , anytime you two try to break it off with eachother the universe keeps pulling you both back ... this time vi tries to end it once and for all which seemed to be going quite smoothly until you almost fucking died by an olive.
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒏𝒕 𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈 - (not much of a warning this honestly so random) cursing , vi and reader are on and off , unserious short fic basically lol .. makeout session , thigh slap , err that's all.
m.list
The sound of people having their own conversations enter your ears , soft glasses filled with white or red wine clinking on and off the tables , laughter in the air as people indulged in their own conversations .... this was awkward.
really fucking awkward...
you fidget in the uncomfortable seat that was made for this fancy ass restaurant , pulling down your black skin tight dress as it kept riding up your thighs , your fingers softly patting on the table as you attempted to avoid eye contact from the red/pink headed girl across from you.
"I'm sorry, y'know .. but this just isn't really ... um?" The freckled girl stopped for a moment, her own eyes avoiding yours - that were still looking else where as if they'd make her crack. "working? yknow what i mean?"
you didn't answer her , simply because you weren't necessarily surprised by her words, considering you've heard them before.
finally, you stare at her, causing vi to be startled , the color red lightly soaking up her warm, freckled cheeks as she avoids your gaze once more. "Fine, whatever.." Your blunt words make vi look at you , her eyes slightly wide as she slowly nods, taking in your words."Uh - okay, but im being serious this time ... this just -" she stutters over her words, trying to find the right ones to make this go more smoothly.
"You're just ... alot" those words that escaped her mouth made your eyebrows jump.
this was new.
"excuse me? im what?" You ask the girl in response . You couldn't help but feel slightly offended by her choice of her poor words even though she was sorta correct ... your past relationships has always told you that you were sorta high maintenance , but how the hell was that your fault? god forbid a girl want attention 24/7.
"no! no - fuck! im sorry, i didn't mean it like that it's just ... you distract me a lot, and i have so much shit going on ..." vi stutters over her words in a panic, not wanting to offend you .. but it was true , she did have alot of shit going on in her life i means she just finished college a month ago and still hasn't been able to find a permanent job that's good enough , and her apartment rent is getting higher and if she's being honest with her self she doesn't thinks she's ready for a relationship .... but fuck , you ... you distracted the hell out of her, being around you was almost addictive.
she didn't know why that was, especially when you two are polar opposites but you were so fucking .... sweet ... in alot of ways that can't be described ... you care about her in ways alot of other people around her don't and she cherishes that dearly.
she likes that and it's hard to get rid of that , others probably wouldn't appreciate your blunt , slightly bitchy as others put it personality but vi had gotten used to it , and honestly she was sorta attracted to it.
but because you two were polar opposites anytime you'd actually try to be in an actual relationship, it always ended up with one telling the other, "maybe this isn't gonna work out," yet you'd end up in eachothers bed a week later .. a cycle that has been going on for atleast a month in a half.
At least you two were consistent.
"so what? you brought me to this overpriced restaurant to tell me this? mind you, our food isn't even at our table yet.."
"sorry! i just really need you to know this and they said the food should be out soon-"
"they said that 26 minutes ago , it doesn't take long to make chicken tenders and fries.."
"i don't know why you ordered that whe this is a seafood place"
"are you seriously critiquing my choice in food right now vi? seriously? you just basically broke up with me and now you're saying this?"
"....sorry?"
"actually, i don't think i want to eat anymore" you mumble as you grab your small purse off the table and gathering other items causing vi to frown at your actions
"what are you doing?" the colored haired girl questioned in slight confusion , her blue eyes watching you intently.
"Leaving obviously," you state clearly as you roll your eyes , your words make vi straighten her back and her eyes widened like a puppy as she mumbles a small 'wait'.
you didn't catch it as you decided to grab your leftover glads of white wine and down the rest of it , totally missing the olive at the bottom of the glass ... suddenly it felt as if your throat was clogged , your airways being blocked by a small ass fruit .. vegetable?
your hands drop the glass and they made their way around your neck, eyes wide as you looked towards vi with your big wide eyes before your body fell off the chair and right onto the cold floor of the restaurant.
vi was in the middle of a sentence when she saw your actions, her eyebrows knitted tightly in pure confusion as she watched you fall, her body shoots up in an instant calling out your name and running to your side, her eyes frantically eyeing your figure as she reaches down to pull you up off the ground.
she can hear the sudden panicked voices around her and gasps from others , chairs scraping the ground as other came to assist.
"fuck! what the fuck!" vi yells holding you up trying to get a look at your face, your hands still clung to your neck .. she could feel the shaky and unsteady breaths you attempted to breath "chokin- she's fucking choking someone help!"
"heimlick woman!"
"help her!"
to many voices entered her ears at a time , she squints her eyes in confusion.. what the fuck is him lick???
a man , suddenly walks over in quick speed - the waiter that was gone for almost 30 minutes now with your food quickly walks over, placing the hot food on the table before going to assist "heimlick!!" the man states loudly to vi , a thick french accent spitting out his mouth as he made an action of how to do a proper heimlick.
understanding and hearing what he said vi immediately closed her arms around your stomach, pushing in "Jesus! what the hell - come on!"
after a few more tries, you could feel the small olive making its way up your throat before it eventually shot out your mouth, making you breathe in deep breaths. the olive bouncing from the floor , and than nearly in an old short man's eye and then hastily in the hot plate of food that was just placed on your table minutes before .. neatly landing in the plate with chicken fingers and fries.
people's cheers were heard all around the restaurant.
"she's saved!"
"that short, pink haired gay girl is a hero!"
"how marvelous!"
vi's once tight arms loosen around you as she hastily turned you towards her facing front ... her hands making their way to your cheeks "you almost fucking died!" she exclaims with wide eyes flickering around your face and body "over a damn olive!"
"yeah im kinda aware of that!"
"holy shit! jesus you scared the fuck out of me oh my fuck!" vi spoke put rather dramatically as she removed her hands from your face and on her head in her hair .. she was still in shock about the nearly dying situation she could feel the pats on her back as people cheered for her.
your body shudders as unknown people came up to you , hands on your shoulder asking if you were alright ... you're aware they mean well, but my god, this was such an embarrassing situation , you tightly send them a smile before bending down to pick up your things that fell out your hands before hastily making your way out the place.
vi quickly followed behind you on your heels.
"Wait... wait! hey! you almost died, and now you're gonna walk away as if that didn't happen?" vi says almost sarcastically at you as she softly reached out for your wrist.
"hey , please .... let me take you home okay? is that okay?"
you sighed, feeling the hotness rise in your cheeks... feeling flustered and embarrassed at the same time.
"vi , im insanely embarrassed right now...."
"i know , that's okay..i don't think it's that embarrassing you choked on an olive"
her words that were meant to be comforting made you snatch you're hand from her grasp and cross them around your chest.
"baby it's fine okay , I'm really worried about still cause- shit that's never happened before and" vi continues still thinking about what happened in the restaurant.
"babe?" your word cut her off "didn't you break up with me a few minutes ago vi? and now since i almost died I'm your girlfriend again?"
"w-well um ... "
you sigh "how many times is this gonna happen?"
vi frowns at your sentence slightly tilting her head, "how many times? have you choked on an olive before? why didn't you tell me that-"
"no! god- vi i mean this!" your hand gestures between you and her "what even is this..." you spoke quietly as you leaned your back on the wall near you. vi follows your steps walking closer to you with a sigh.
no words are spoken, and because neither of you know what to say in response, the only thing heard was the loud voices in the restaurant main dining area .. the hall you and vi were currently in was empty , only you and her. vi leaned closer, and your eyes took time to study her as you always did her pinkish red hair , beautiful blue eyes that looked so incredibly soft at this exact moment as she stared at you ... her hand slowly coming up to softly caress your flesh on your thigh, making your body shudder under her touch.
"vi-"
"please.."
it was silent once more, vi didn't know why she said please as if she was pleading for something- and if she was she didn't know what for.
but all she knew in this moment was that she wanted your lips on hers.
her face moved closer to your own, you could feel vi's hot breath brushing against your face as she leaned in closer .. your lips parted, and your own breath became heavy due to the sudden change in the atmosphere surrounding the both of you , your hands moved to her button-up shirt, gripping it gently .. finally, she closed the distance between you, her delicate lips meeting your soft ones , while her hand firmly grasped your thigh before delivering a sharp slap against it making you let out a noise through the kiss as her other hand tenderly caressed your neck ... her lips danced against yours, savoring the sweet essence of your peach-flavored chapstick , which elicited a soft groan from her as she pressed closer against you.
you both weren't battling for dominance as her tongue slipped into your mouth ... you couldn't help but moan at the feeling , your thighs pressed together while your eyes closed tightly, your hands still clutching her shirt ... because of this, you knew for a fact you'd end up at vi's apartment, and you were well aware that you'd be waking up in vi's bed the following morning , which was hardly a shock ...
you can't even lie yourself anymore ... you enjoy this ongoing cycle or pattern you and her have going on .. you grew to love the thing others would probably call slightly toxic experiences of waking up the next day with a throbbing love hangover.
written by @baambied please do not steal my ideas / work for your own use.
this was so random but wtv lol..

💬 Just a Small Update, and a Big Thank You
Dear friends, kind hearts, and everyone who has stood with us,
When I first opened my heart to the world and shared our story, I never imagined the amount of love and solidarity we would receive. Thanks to your incredible support, we’ve now reached $12,837—a milestone that brings real light to some very dark days.
From the deepest corners of my heart, thank you.
💔 A Journey of Loss, but Also of Strength
As many of you know, I’ve lost 25 of my loved ones during this devastating war. That grief lives with me every single day. It’s in the silence that once held laughter, in the empty spaces where we once gathered as a family.
But through your help, I’ve also felt something else: hope. And that hope is priceless.
“21/Oct/2023 Before It Reached Us: The Day Our Neighbor’s House Was Destroyed” A quiet moment of fear, filmed just before everything changed.

“22/Oct/2023 The Morning After: Our Family Home in Ruins” This is what was left behind after the bombing of our home.

🌿 What Life Looks Like for Us Now
Despite everything, we’re still here. Still surviving. Still hoping.
But things have only gotten harder.
The war has returned, more brutal than before—and for over a month now, Gaza has been completely sealed off. No food is coming in. No medical supplies. No aid. No trade. No one is allowed to leave, and no one is allowed to enter.
We’re trapped.


🏚 We live with the fear of tomorrow, every single day. Airstrikes, drones, and the uncertainty of what might happen next. 👨👩👧 Our family is forever changed—we haven’t just lost people; we’ve lost pieces of ourselves. 📉 Basic needs go unmet—even clean water feels like a luxury now. Medicines, if they exist at all, are unreachable.
And yet…
Your support reminds us that we’re not forgotten. It reminds us that someone, somewhere, is still listening. That someone still cares. That we’re not completely alone in this.
Every message. Every share. Every dollar. It tells us: You’re walking this road with us. And that gives us the strength to keep going.
💖 What You Can Do
If you’ve already donated—thank you beyond words. If you can share our story again, it could reach someone who can help.
Even $5 means warmth, comfort, and a chance to breathe a little easier.
✨ Why It All Matters
This isn’t just about reaching a fundraising goal. It’s about surviving war with dignity. It’s about believing in tomorrow. It’s about making sure my daughter grows up knowing that the world did not look away.
Thank you for your kindness, patience, and belief in our humanity. You’ve helped me find my voice—and I will use it to keep hope alive.
🙏 From the Heart: A Quiet Apology
There’s something I need to say—something that’s been on my heart for some time.
When I first began sharing our story, I didn’t know what the right way was. I was scared, grieving, and trying to protect my family in any way I could. I reached out to many people, hoping someone, anyone, would see us. In that process, I now realize I may have overstepped, and I might have made some feel overwhelmed.
If that happened, I am truly sorry.
Please believe me when I say it was never out of disregard or pushiness. It came from a place of fear—fear of being forgotten, fear of not being able to keep my family safe, fear of watching everything I love slip away in silence.
I’m learning as I go. I’ve slowed down. I’m more mindful now, trying to share our journey in a way that feels respectful of the space and hearts of those listening.
If my words ever came at the wrong time, or in the wrong way, I hope you can understand where they came from—and I hope you can forgive me.
Thank you for seeing past my mistakes. Thank you for still being here. It means more than I can ever explain.

With love and endless gratitude, Mosab and family ♥️

My Journey to Escape the War in Gaza
My name is Abdelmajed. I never imagined I’d be sharing my story like this, but life in Gaza has become unbearable. I am a survivor of the war here, and in the blink of an eye, everything I once knew—my home, my safety, my community—was ripped away from me.

The war has transformed Gaza into a graveyard of broken dreams. The buildings that once stood as symbols of life and resilience are now piles of rubble. Every corner is filled with the echoes of explosions. Every moment is shrouded in uncertainty. There is no security. There is no stability. There is no light at the end of the tunnel.
Basic needs have become luxuries. Food is scarce. Clean water is even scarcer. Hospitals are overwhelmed and under-resourced, and there is almost no medical care to be found. Every night, families go to bed hungry, praying they’ll wake up to see another day. The cost of basic necessities has skyrocketed, and it’s become a daily battle just to survive.
I’ve seen things I never thought possible—standing in long lines for a piece of bread, rationing every drop of water, and watching my people suffer in silence. I have lost everything—my home, my safety, my dignity.
Escape from Gaza is my only hope, but it’s almost impossible without financial help. The cost of evacuation is far beyond my means, and without support, I’m trapped in a warzone with no way out.
I’m reaching out to you now, in the hopes that someone, anyone, can help. I am not asking for luxury. I am asking for a chance—just a chance—to live. A chance to escape this never-ending cycle of fear, destruction, and loss. A chance to rebuild my life somewhere safe, where I can begin again, where I can find hope once more.
Any amount you can give will help me get closer to safety. Even the smallest donation will make a difference—it could be the lifeline I need to survive. If you are unable to donate, please share my story. The more people who hear it, the better the chance that I can find the support I desperately need.
Your kindness and support mean the world to me. You’re not just helping me escape a war; you’re giving me a chance to live, to rebuild, to breathe again.
Thank you for listening. Thank you for caring.
