Maria Hayat- beautiful , clever and lovely with a great smile which made her seem a joyful woman .
She had lived around twenty-two years in the world with a despairing feeling arising at the thought of her family background . Her name says it all ; Hayat - Muslim , Maria - Christian! There she was living in a house with her father a very strict , systematic and authoritative man - Mr Osman- but there was also an elegant lady with black curls, she was a lady of discipline - Mrs Leah and finally we come to the real reason of happiness of the family; the brother a young man , the dynamic and jubilant personality. He was named after his grandfather whom he barely knew , Adam.

Earphones plugged in and her favourite song was on , Starbucks in her hand , sunglasses on the table . She was overwhelmed by the admirable sunset of Saudi Arabia. It was time to leave, she stood up grabbing her passport and boarding pass in her hands while effortlessly arming herself with her backpack.
Finally a new journey was waiting to embrace her , it was literally the first time she was travelling alone and she was so fascinated about it .
" Thank God , the monster ain't with me else travelling with an authorative man is a complete nightmare and disgust ".
Minutes later , she is already on board , enjoying the luxurious comfort of a Boeing 777 from Saudi Airlines . She was leaving her hometown that is Madina to go to Jeddah , the second most lively city of the Kingdom of Saudi.

Maria was definitely having a mixture of feelings ; she was excited , contented and pleased as punch . As the plane was about to take off , she felt satisfied, the call to freedom could be heard .

Finally all the bullshits are over ......
I have survived and it has been a welcoming distraction of my first flight alone .
I miss Adam and I imagine him how he used to love reclining on me when we were travelled to Jerusalem.
Adam is my life , and even perhaps one of the main reasons I'm still alive . Since I was young , all that I ever had was a baby brother and so a pattern was developed from our love ; wake , school , cry , hug and sleep.  I love his hazel eyes the way he stares at me when he wants something that's just a sweet escape . I have become my own destroyed escapism , a landscape of hatred and bad luck . But still my happiness seems to always be back to Adam and what he is to me.

When people say this " this is the worst day of my whole life ", they eventually do not know how well off they still are though most of the times because of the little annoying things that would happen to them.
Maria standing in a queue going through security check-up at the King Abdulaziz International Airport was trying to keep calm . All that she could do is to keep calm and not to utter a word that came from her little pink lips. As she peeped around the airport , she only recalled the moments spent with baby Adam .

" How tall and good - looking my baby boy has become " , she whispered to herself in a low voice . Her demons were killing her inside by making her think of her little diamond , Adam .

His shimmering hazel eyes
His soft little hands
His sentimental character
His fluffy favourite jacket
Just him and him!

All these memorable moments
All these long nights
All these wonderful laughs
All these crucial talks
Just all of it

There Maria was , standing outside in the warm weather of the Kingdom, she was waiting for the chauffeur to pick her up .
She was beautiful and outstanding in all the magical moves she made . She lit up those pathways with glitter as she walked by  
Who knew her importance? 
No one !
All that glitters is not gold, that was Maria's life!
