"I love her so much, It physically pains me to imagine a life without her, I feel like I won't survive a single second, without her. I feel I am drowning and only she could save me, But here I am, drowning without her, and she'...

Why was there that red smear on Mahib's face on that photo?
It's not that only he was present in the frame. There was Eman, Zayed and me.
But it looked like only Mahib was targeted.
Why him?
My stomach churned at the thoughts that kept sprouting in my mind all night long.
I place the photo face down on the mattress and tap my hand on Noor's chest.
It's four in the morning and I haven't got a wink of sleep.
The text Eman send me two hours ago replayed in my mind like a broken loop.
Are you guys back yet? Read 00:34.
Hey, sorry for the late text. We just got back.
So late? Read 2:16
Yeah, nothing to worry but we got into a small accident.
Accident? Are you both okay? Read 2:17
We are fine, no one is hurt but our taxi would have had a greater impact if it were a large vehicle. It was a sedan which hit us. We had to change our taxis. Read 2:32
My mind got struck on only one thing.
It was a sedan which hit us.
The car which kept appearing was also a sedan. Could it be a coincidence?
Or am I thinking too much?
Whenever I try closing my eyes, a new tortured memory played in my mind.
It's as if my brain is my biggest enemy. Whenever I try to close my eyes, it keeps replying every single painful memory of the past nine years.
I pick up the photo again.
The red smear on Mahib's face.
The accident that happened nine years ago.
The run in with the sedan.
I sit up. Holding my head in my hands.
No. Not there.
I don't ever want to see Mahib in his own blood, unmoving. Again.
All because of me.
He got another chance in life. And I am not going to lead him there again because of me.
But if I have to keep him save, I have to...stay away from him.
Tears spring up in my eyes.
How could I go from feeling free after so many years to going back to that spiralling of dark thoughts?
