A boy and girl are teasing each other. He tells her she probably wishes she could kiss him. She says that she would actually find that disgusting. He tells her that's probably why her boyfriend left to another country. She then says:
Haha athak el mafroud?
The guy then says:
Show it to me.
She says:
Why should I show it to you? You are here.
Then she shows him some pictures of something (I don't know what). They laugh a lot, and he says: You are drunk.

| Thank you, Shereen. This is so obvious now, but I kept reading it as "th" instead of at-hak. |
