Mina's P.O.V"I don't want you to leave out anything that happened can you do that? From the minute you walked into school that day " the He asked kindly.
I still don't know how I was in a police station being questioned by this police officer. The room was fairly small.
Almost like you would suffocate if anything you said was wrong. The room was cold and dark.
After that guy was taken away it was as if everything that happened after was a merely blur.
I don't know how I got here or exactly when..
Daniel I recall his name. Apparently Mathew and him know each-other.
Everything that had happened today was a mistake. Just another test I say to myself.
Maybe this is a sign or somthing?
But, now thinking about it, I remember bumping into a kid with a similar looking jacket as Daniel was wearing. Big and dark. was that him?..
wow now I am just getting paranoid.
I comeback from my weird daydream and notice the sun just about to set. I feel sad and tiredness swelling inside of me.
I look back at the patient police officer
He's looks at his notepad and reads what he wrote "so, you were on you way to the office to drop of something when you saw Daniel on the ground" he asks
"Yes" I say having the whole situation play in my head. "Well at first I thought it was a jacket but, as I got closer..uh
I take a breath and try again.
"I was walking to the office whe-n" I said shaking wanting the right words to come out.
A tear running down my cheek.
"But,-then..I sat next ---..him and.." More tears
"It's okay that's all for now" he says closing the note pad.
"Thank you for at least trying" he says with a smile
"Uh..will he be okay? I ask scared to hear the response
"For now he is in surgery but, we can only hope he is going to come out okay" "your parents are outside I will walk you over"
I get of the cold metal chair and wipe my sweaty hands on my skirt. Crossing both of my shoulders over my chest He opens the door and I can finally breath again.
He leads me through all the offices and a few people tied to metal seats. Are they drunk?
They only look about the same age as I am. I see two boys one of them yelling drunk to the impatient officer. The other a sleep. Next to them two girls both brunette one puking in a bucket crying for her parents and the other angry.
What are they insane? They are so young. I try not making eye contact with the girl that looks pissed as she looks me up and down in disgust.
I catch up with the police officer who I still do not know his name. Did he already tell me?
We make our way towards two big doors that lead outside. He opens them for me to get out first
It's really dark out now. And the cold air hits me hard.
"Mina" my mom yells
"Oh my Allah" my dad whispers "Are you okay"As they both make there way up the stairs I know now I am in definite trouble.
"Yes" I say trying to pull off a small smile
They pull me into a hug.
"Mina this is my number call me if you remember anything and we will keep in touch" the officer hands me his card as well as my parents
"Thank you so much sir" my mom says
"Yes thank you" my dad shakes his hand
"Goodnight" he says and makes his way back up the stairs
I feel cold and exhausted now as we quietly make our way towards the car
"we will talk in the morning" my dad says quietly putting his coat over my shoulder.
Thank god
My mom takes passenger seat and my dad helps me get into the back. Putting my seat belt on for me like I am three.
He kisses my head as my mom hold my hand
all energy gone from my body, I fall asleep as soon as the car starts moving .
"Remember Mina what ever happened today was not your fault Allah put a situation in your hands and you had to decide what to do with it" my mom says in worry
I am already shutting my eyes
Think and only thinking about Daniels life "may Allah help him" I whisper
And finally dose off.
