Sohayb and Yazmin stayed in the bunker for three days. During those three days Sohayb tried his best to stay away from Yazmin.

Finally after three days, the two decided it was safe. Sohayb wanted to keep his promise.

They started their journey to head back home to find Yazmin's father.

The two walked for hours. It was beginning to be dark. The sun was on the verge of setting.

As they got closer and closer to their destination, Sohayb spotted something from afar. It was a body.

"Stay here" He told her.

"He walked closer and closer. He recognized the body. His heart sank. It was Mr. Malik.
He didn't have the heart to tell Yazmin.

He walked back to her. "We should leave Yazmin, I'm serious".

"No, you promised me." She pleaded.

She started walking faster ahead. Sohayb ran in front of her to block her.

"You don't need to see, trust me." He said.

"Stop blocking me." She said frustrated.

Sohayb wanted to stop her. He managed to block her avoiding skin contact. Yazmin tried pushing him away. "STOP! STOP BLOCKING MY WAY."

"Listen to me. You can't go. Your father's dead don't you understand?" Sohayb frantically said.

She stopped squirming. "Is that him?"

Sohayb stayed silent. She looked down and tears began blurring her vision. Her breathing got heavier.

" let's go." He said walking away. She followed. Yazmin had never felt such pain. She felt her heart physically shatter, like shattered glass.

Her precious father gone. Suddenly stopped existing. What was she supposed to do? She felt so alone and weak. She felt hopeless and defeated.
