(Zulaykha)
I sighed as I started the shower. Hana wanted to come in here with me, but... Yeah...
Anyway, Ziyad, Yasin, and Yasir had went outside to check out the scene and comfort the neighbors. It's sad what people have to go through... All because of me...
No... It isn't my fault. Alma is the one who is doing these evil things. It's not my fault...right?

(Yasir)
I'm smart, you know... I can see that something weird is going on here. All these deaths are not just a coincidence... The way Zu freaked out in the car... She said everyone was going to die and we can't cheat death... She said something about a desk...
Yasin kind of brushed it off and never spoke of it, but me? No. I haven't stopped thinking about what she said after that.
When I'm around Zulaykha, I feel cold. Yasin does too. Sometimes, I can hear Zulaykha talking to someone in her room.
Seriously, what is going on? I'm thinking something, but I don't want to say it... I-Is there a j-jinn with Zulaykha?
No...
That's ridiculous.
If Zulaykha knows a jinn and if this jinn is the one who is causing these deaths, Zulaykha wouldn't be associating with them... Zulaykha wouldn't become 'friends' with a bad jinn...
Unless... This jinn isn't the one causing the deaths...
"Yasir!" I heard my name being called. I shook my head, snapping out of my ridiculous thoughts.
It was Yasin.
"We're going back to the house..." Yasin said. I sighed. I felt so bad for the neighbors. I kind of knew their daughter. I used to see her around school. She was a pretty girl—nice, sweet, always smiling, lots if friends. It's sad that such a beautiful life had to be taken away.
