"Finally" I shouted immediately as the teacher left the class. The whole class turned to look at me and they continued what they were doing. School was finally over and I can't wait to go back home and eat my mom's lovely food. The thought of
it just made me happy. Immediately I was done my best friend Rachel came running to me.

"Wanna hang out later" she asked

"Nah I can't am tired today was hectic maybe another time" i told her.
She just sigh and looked away. I put my hands on her face she looked at me with a sad expression and with sadness in her eyes I just smiled and said softly
"Hey...am sorry I have changed my mind you know what we can hangout later"
She immediately squealed and hugged me I just smiled at my friend childishness after we disengaged from the hug i waved bye and left.

Immediately I entered the house I said my salam and removed my hijab on my way to the living room I saw everything was packed in boxes as if we were moving. I went to my room and saw all of my stuffs packed too.

"MOM! MOM!! MOM!!!" I shouted my mom's name and left the room.

"Yes darling am in your brother's room" I heard her say.

I entered his room and saw my little brother helping mom pack his stuffs. I looked at her with a confused expression on my face.

"What's going on mom" I asked totally lost.

My mom chuckled "we are leaving the country tomorrow we are moving to Lebanon" my mom finally dropped the bomb shell

"WHAT!!!" I shouted "mom why, why did you tell us before time why mom" I asked already crying

My mom pulled me into her embrace "darling am sorry and we are doing this for your own good"
mom said

I stood up up and wiped my tears "mom am going to the park later"

She just smiled in approval. I went to the bathroom to freshen up when I was done I came out, i rubbed my lotion and did all the necessary things I need to do before dress up. I wore a black mommy jeans with a white t-shirt.
I dried my hair and packed it into a low bun and finally wore my veil. When I was done I went down stairs into the dining area and made myself some cornflakes to eat since I lost apatite.

I left the house after I was done eating. Currently I was at the park waiting for Rachel. I was looking around hoping to see her.

"Timtim" I turned around knowing who was calling my name. I saw Rachel heading toward me. I crossed the distance between us and hugged her and Istarted crying. Rachel started panicking immediately and asked me what the matter was.

"Rachel am so go..nna miss yo..u" I said in between my sobs.

"Timtim what's the matter" Rachel asked I could sense sadness in her voice.

"Rachel me and and my family are going to relocate to Lebanon" i said.

Rachel looked at me without saying anything without any expression nothing I just looked back. It felt like we have been looking at each other for hours before she finally spoke.

"Why are you just telling me"

I could see tears in her eyes.

" I just found out today Rachel we would be leaving tomorrow" i said

Rachel bursted into tears and hugged me. We cried in each other's arms which fell really good. When we finally composed ourselves we separated from each other. We said our last farewells and we all left for our homes.

When i came back home it was Isha time. I prayed both magrib and Isha. When I was done I wore my pj and went to bed cause I was tired. Immediately my head hit the   pillow I went to la La land.

I opened my eyes slowly and and I groaned as the sun light hit my eyes. I went into the bathroom took my bath and did all the necessary things. I wore a green long skirt ankle length with a white baggy shirt I tied my hair into a bun and rolled my veil. I checked the time it was already 10:25 and our flight was 12:00 so I took my head phones and all the necessary things I needed and left the room.

"Fatimah do you want you to be late for our flight" mom should
Unknown to her I was right behind her I hugged her from behind.

"My dear mom good morning" i said instead of answering her. 

She turned around and knocked my head.
"Ouch mom what was that for" I said rubbing my head.

"For wasting our time" mom said

Ali and dad just laughed.

"Dadddd" I said in a whiny voice did u see what mom just did.

" yes I saw it" he said with a smile and pulled his wife into his arm

I just pout looking at them.

"Ok it time to go we have wasted a lot of time" dad finally said.

We all walked out of the house. I turned around to look at the house that held so much memories for the last time.

"Sis hurry up" my brother yelled

That's when I realized I was taking time. I entered the care and we zoomed off . We arrived at the airport not long after. We all left the car and entered the airport. We boarded the plane and settled down.

"Ladies and gentlemen, all cellular telephones and other portable electronics devices, such as CD players and laptop computers, must be turned off and stowed for departure. Thank you. Please be seated as our flight is ready for departure." The flight attendant said.

I closed my eyes as the plane took off and then that's when I realized I was entering a new chapter.
