Out of the blue , Walaa headed back to Steven after she closed the door then she got down on both of her knees in front of Steven , touched the ground under Steven's feet with her hand then she put her hand on her head and moved her hand to the back on her head .
Steven was completely shocked and did not know what she was doing , so he bent , grabbed her from bothof her arms , helped her to stand up again and then he asked her , " What are doing ? "
Walaa said , " It is an Indian's custom the Indians always do it to take the blessings from under their ancestors , their parents and other loved ones' feat ,
but I did not do it for the same reason , I did it to make you know that I do not only love you , but I love also the ground where under your feet because you stepped on it . "
Steven was totally shocked because it was the first time he heard anyone saying such words or made such an act then he took her between his arms unconsciously while her tears was rolling down on her cheek .
Then he started to talk to himself , " What should I do now ? She believes that I am her husband , now we are alone and the room is closed on us and she is between my arms now . Who will save me from her words and her deeds .I had already alot of this throughout the day , I had enough , I will not be able to resist any of this anymore . "
" I do not know why for the first time I'm feeling that I want to share the same feelings with the woman who is standing in front of me , although I was always so firm with all the women before and I have never had any relationship of any kind with any woman before . "
" Even my fiance I did not establish any relationship with her so far but for the first time I feel that I am so weak in front of this woman and I fear that I became weaker , forget who I'm , establish a relationship with her and break the promise that I gave to her mother , but this is not my nature to break any word I gave it to any one before . I have to change the subject and find any excuse to keep her away form me for a short while until I calm down , focus and think carefully what to do next. I just need a short break .
Suddenly he pushed her back gently while he was looking into her eyes and saying , " Walaa what a lovely name what does it mean ? "
Walaa smiled and said , " Did you really love my name ? I am very pleased to hear this. It is an Arabic name means allegiance . "
