I'm in a room all alone. Sitting on a chair. There's a desk in front of me and another chair at the other end of the desk. He walks into the room with a tired expression on his face that makes my heart hurt. But when he sees me, his face immediately lights up. I can't help but smile back at his beautiful face. He comes over to the desk and sits in the chair opposite me. He pulls my hands towards him and places his face on my palms. I can feel his eyelashes on my fingers and they make me feel so nice and warm. He blinks and it tickles. Then suddenly I feel something wet on my fingers. Teardrops. 'I'm sad. You broke my heart, why would you break my heart?' I can hear his voice clearly even though he's talking into my hands. And I swear I can't breathe. I feel this pain in my chest like someone's trying to pierce it with a knife. He looks up and the tears are flowing so unrealistically as if his eyes were waterfalls. The pain gets worst -like I'm continuously being stabbed. And then he's gone, just like that. I look into my cupped hands and instead of saline tears I see blood. Thick crimson blood. 'You broke my heart' Lets romanticise this tragedy

Islam. Only one word, but more than twenty percent of the population. At least one fifth of this whole entire world is Muslim. But yet there are some who don't know anything about them, despite being a Muslim themselves. Among these people is an Afghan Muslim girl whose name is Amarah Sahar. She is seventeen years old, a senior in high school. She was born and raised in Canada with an Afghan background. Amarah has lived her life thinking that life is all about people not religion. She's never even wondered what the word Allah meant until she met the man who mistakenly changes her life. She wasn't snobby, she wasn't a girly-girl and neither was she a good girl. She was the most popular girl in school. She was lazy, immensely dense and had incredibly bad habits . But with that she was also funny, teasing and loud. No one ever saw her as a threat. She was an only child with parents that spent two-thirds of their life working and only one-third living with Amarah. They failed to educate Amarah and give her support. But when a 22 year old student teacher enters the school and sees Amarah's bad habits, he won't forget and neither will he forgive so easily for what she has done and what she continues doing. Out of all the people who cut her some slack, he isn't any of them. Will this Islam-loving, strict but sincere teacher ever show Amarah the true light of Islam?
