[ Which is strange in and of itself, now that Kalim stops to consider it. They know everything about each other, don't they? They've been together for so long, one would think it would've come up before now. But here's something new. Here, on the other side of complete chaos and a redefinition of everything they've ever meant to one another, suddenly there are new things to learn.
And Jamil only becomes more incredible with each new thing Kalim learns about him.
So, even though I'm fine is sometimes a double-edged sword, Kalim takes his chances. His fingers wind slowly up this little skein of Jamil's hair, until they're far enough over to comb through and bring more over his shoulder. An ample amount to delicately thread his fingers through, root to tip, like Kalim were petting a particularly ornery cat instead of his best friend's hair. ]
Does Najma ever play with your hair when you're home? I don't even have that much, and the little ones still like to stick bows in it.
