myra's pov
doesnt my life sound perfect. yes it does and by allah's grace it was until that day. the day my life decided to throe new cards at me. I dnt even knw if I was meant to know it but it changed it all.  though everything was same but the sight I saw and the dark secret I had unfortunately come across while doing what a normal teen does, project. I tried to forget it and I am still trying. everything around me is the same except me.  evry person is the same but the secret I knew with which I could either save everone else and risk my life or keep my life nd risk everyone else's.  it haunted me day and night. the feeling of guilt. I am confused as to what I should do. I cant rely on anyone except Allah and thats what ive been doing after all everything happens for a reason. when the time comes I shall do what is right but I want to hide from it for as long as I can. With these thoughts clouding my brain I finally drifted off to sleep.

I woke up for fajr and went in to peek into Inaya's room. YES! She's asllep. I quickly went to the refrigerator and got a dozen icecubes out and hobbled to Inaya's room and 1...2....3.....here we go. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa thats what I wanted to hear but unfortunately my virgo sister behaved like a normal virgo does. Yeah the people with the zodiac virgo are known to be calm, and collected which Inaya is definitely not, sure it applies to my brother. Maybe there are two kinds of virgos but currently Inaya just cozied herself deeper into the quilt and fell asleep. What the heck! I would have been wide awake by now then how is my sister sleeping so calmly as if she cant feel the cold ice water from the cubes dripping down her shirt. Oh well I finally woke her majesty by screaming into her ears. She hates it when I hoot. That worked instantly as she sat in bed complaining she wasnt deaf. Then after offering my fajr salat I came to a decision. I couldnt risk so many people's lives so I decided to inform the police after college today. No, I wont be involving any family members in this. I will go alone to the station. Quickly grabbing my pepper spray and tossing it into my bag so that I dont forget to carry it later while leaving. I tend to forget things alot. After I was ready for college I told my parents i'l be late and lied that I would be going to my friends house. I felt damn guilty but they knew nothing about this and they dont need to.

'Hello Juliet" thats how everybody greeted me at school. Yes I was 1 of the most popular kids at school though I used to never gossip and stuff I was popular for being me. Yes i am a leo which makes me an attention seeker and my mere friendliness and beauty attracted people. I loved all my friends and was known as the friendliest girl at college. I got the name Juliet from the time I did the play Romeo Juliet here. Since then the people who dint know my name particularly the juniors as well as people who knew me started calling me Juliet. Well anyway after searching for my sociology class i went and took my seat.  My friends entered and hugged me as soon as they found me and started asking me about lil Inaya's  trick at the mall and I had to tell them every detail about it. I love these people. 

As soon as the bell rang indicating that our tiresome day was over I went out with my friends to get some fresh air. I remembered that I had to go to the police today and decided to go after my friends left otherwise they wil bombard me with a no. of questions. The last one to go was Bushra another of my friend and her brother had come to pick her up. I glanced up only to see him staring at me. Lower your gaze mister is all that I wanted to say but he was my friend's brother. I knew he had a crush on me but i never checked him out. Leave him I had never checked any guy out in my whole life. I knew he was a good muslim and stuff but the 'lower your gaze' factor which I beleive in is lacking. Quickly shrugging the thoughts away I left the college heading for the police station.
