The Girl Behind The Scenes

Some hellos aren't easy

            Shagrah's pov

  Where am i? Where are my parents? And what the hell am i doing in a hospital?!.
   I started panicking not knowing what to do. I started yelling names. "Mama!! Papa!!" No answer " take me out of here" no answer. I saw my phone beside me and decided to call my parents.
     To my surprise both numbers were said to not be registered on network. MTN and their wahala. I tried and tried again and later gave up. Just then shagranah came in.

"are you ok? How are you feeling? Thank God you're awake, are you having headaches?!" She yelled. I was sure the person in the next room could here her.

"Bro chill, I'm fine. May I ask you if you haven't forgotten, how the hell did I arrive at the hospital"

"I should be asking you"

"How am I supposed to know".

"Well maybe because you're the one wearing blue I guess" she said ooh so sarcastically.

"Where is Mami and Dadi" I asked trying to change the subject.

She just stood there like I told here her name is next on death's list. Or I told her dajjal is looking for her. Haba mana.

She excused herself and ran out of the room. Keyword "ran".

             SHAGRANAH'S POV

"Where is Miami and dadi". Shagrah asked me with the most innocent face. I then remembered what the doctor said "she has lost her memory". Yes!!! I overheard him telling Ya Muhammad..

But...
If truly she has lost her memory how then will she remember me, my face, mami, and dadi.

Maybe it's because you have the same face dumbo.

I ran as fast as my stick legs could carry me. I told the doctor what happened. He said she has a rare case of.... allegiance... abiii... something that rhymes with it haka.

The doctor called like 3 nurses as the all hurriedly came as he kept saying, "Room 108, patient with acute allegiance". They all came like they were hypnotised.

You know..... honestly speaking... losing shagrah is the worst thing that can happen to me right now. Yesss... I know... I lost my parents😔. But maybe the pain of losing shagrah will be worse.

Call me a psychopath but losing the other part of you... the half that completes you and at the same time is your total opposite. I hate myself for saying this but I am closer to shagrah than even my parents. And only twins, triplets, quadruplets and all the other multiples out there can understand the feeling of losing just 1 of you. You will kill for your siblings.

I didnt know when I hit my breaking point. My legs couldn't carry me anymore. My head started spinning. My nose was clogged from all the crying. My eyes were blood shot red the last time i looked at the mirror when i was about to break down. My whole world started crashing down on me.

I felt like I was on an earthquake. I couldn't take it anymore. I wasnt having it..... I just lost it. Last thing I could remember was a nurse running towards me calling my name.....

Just to put that out there.

I also want this chapter to remind y'all that the way you treat your siblings define you.

I gave shagranah those lines because I'm a twin myself.

Though Alhamdlillah I dont know what it feels like loosing a twin but y'all need to feel what she feels. I 100% relate when she talked about her twin. "The half that completes you and at the same time is your total opposite.

You see... my twin's a boy, I'm a girl. He's an extrovert, I'm an introvert..etc. so I dedicate this chapter to him. Love you  @
AmmarGambo.

But that connection you share from coming out of the same womb lives in all of you.

What I want you to do now is to stop whatever you're doing. Drop the phone, laptop, whatever and go to your siblings or call them, twins or not and tell them you love them.

You know the words of 'I love you'  goes a long way. It can stay in someone's heart forever. Please do that. Even though not for me but for your own pleasure. Even you will feel good about the response you'll get. Try and see.

Love Ayeesh💘
