A soldier was walking looking around for people, while he was walking around by some houses, he saw a girl laying on the floor. Her house was on fire, and a man was laying close to the house dead. He thought that another solder had shot him. He walked to the girl and checked if she was still breathing. She was still alive. The soldier was about to pick her up when he saw her hand. Her hand had a birth mark. Her birth mark looked like a heart. "It cant be... Its really you. Leyla..."
Leyla was opening her eyes little by little.When her eyes were wide open Leyla saw that she was inside a little house. The house looked all burned up. She was laying on a sofa close to the door. When she turned around she saw a soldier. "Oh, your awake...are you feeling ok" said the soldier. "GET AWAY FROM ME!" and then Leyla kicked the solder on his nose and started to run. With a lot of pain the soldier yelled, " WAIT! Leyla!" Leyla stoped, and turned around slowly. "How do you know my name..." "That was a hard kick there...auch... Dont worry. I wont hurt you" " I asked you a question! How do you know my name!" "Sit down... I will tell you. Dont worry.... You dont have to sit next to me." "No! HOW DO YOU KNOW MY NAME!" "Ok, ok... your birth mark..." " What about my birth mark..." "I know you." Leyla was started to think, she dident know that person, maybe he was lying and wanted to trap her. "You are trying to trick me, aren't you. You just want to kill me like you and the others did to my family and friends!!!" "Hey.. This is not a trick, I promise. Look I have no weapons, im here alone, I wont harm you." "How do I know that..." "You can trust me." "Ha, yea sure im going to trust a person who did all of this mess! Who is killing people! Sure!!! Just because your my age you think you can trick me!" With that Leyla was at the door. The soldier went after her and grabbed her hand. "Let go!"
"Hey its ok... I know you have been through a lot, I wont hurt you I promise. " You dont know any of this!!! My family is gone! I have no one! OK!!!, Now LET ME GO!!" Leyla started to cry. She could not believe all of this was happening to her. "Guess you wont believe in me if I dont tell you...Im, Leyla Im David." Leyla stopped crying and looked at the soldier. She got his arm. And yes there he had a birth mark to that had the shape of a heart. The soldier was really David. " Dav..David..." Then leyla started to cry again. " Im sorry David! Im sorry! Its all my fault. Im.....sorry." Leyla was still hurt by the all of the hits that she got from the other soldier and fainted in Davids arms. " Leyla! Lets take you back inside. You are going to be ok, dont worry. I will be here with you, and I wont let nothing bad happen to you...I promise." And there he took her back inside. He layed her on the sofa that was the only thing in the house that was not burned up. Just five minutes later leyla woke up. There she saw David puting something around her hand. "Are you feeling better? You really got hurt over there." "David, your nose is still bleeding. Im sorry." "Hey dont worry, you were just worried... you were also trying to defend yourself. And a lot of things have happen to you." " David...Im so-" "Leyla dont be sorry, and dont say its your fault because it is not. We were both just six years old. Just rest, you have to rest we can talk about this later. Now sleep." And with those words Leyla fell asleep.
Once again Leyla woke up. she was in the same place. She sat up and there she saw David. David was laying on the floor. Leyla saw a jacket on the sofa and grabbed it and put it on top of David. It was dark outside and cold that day. " Layla" " oh David... sorry, you just look like if you were cold so I cover you up." " Oh its fine, thanks..."
" Yea, yea ok" and Leyla turned around to go to the sofa. But before she did, she said, "Hey...you have been sleeping in the floor for half of the night. It's my turn to sleep on the floor." David wanted to sleep on the sofa because of his back hurted.
"No. I'm fine sleeping here. Don't worry about me. You're still hurt, you have to rest." "No. I'm going to keep talking until you sleep on the sofa."
"All right...just because you keep saying it...but it's not that I want to."
"Yea, sure" Then they both changed spots. Leyla was ok with sleeping in the floor, it didn't bother her. When both of them closed their eyes, they thought of the same thing. Why is my heart beating so fast?
