"Michael!" was the last thing I heard before gunshots echoed down the street. I heard mama scream before the clicking of her heels hitting the asphalt. I stood frozen as I took in the events that just took place. I was zoned out as everyone ran around in panic. I snapped out of my trance when flashing lights pulled up to the scene. There she was on the ground holding his lifeless body in the street. My face appeared calm and expressionless but my mind was racing with thoughts. That bullet should've been in me... it was meant for me...

MANAL
A few minutes into the walk, I heard footsteps shuffling behind me. I tensed up and halted in my tracks. My heart began to pound violently in my chest. I felt too afraid to even do anything. I stayed glued to my spot, but that didn't stop the footsteps from approaching. Mustering all of the courage left in me, I spun around and to my utmost horror, two men - more like thugs were standing just few inches away from me. Ya Allah, please protect me! I don't want to die like this. I spun back around and started walking, my pace increasing rapidly. "Hey! Where the f*** do you think you're going, bit**" One of the men slurred. By the tone of his voice, I could tell he was tipsy or high. The rate of my fear intensified. MANAL ❤ ©2019Complete

Take me higher (English version)_complete
It was dark and the rain poured down mercilessly on him. His hair dripped, his clothes were soaked and stuck to his body. At first, he couldn't see anything, but after a while he realised that he was standing at a junction. How had he come here? He tried hard to remember. Fragments appeared before his inner eye. Scenes like from a film... his first meeting with his roommate, the first meeting with the other residents of the dormitory... the countless hours with his new friends, the laughter together... he thought back to the last weeks. And he thought about him. When he saw his dark eyes and his laugh, the way he hugged him... despite the cold, his heart was warm, and he smiled involuntarily. He felt a longing rising within him. It became stronger and stronger, as if every fibre of his body were consumed by touch. He could almost feel it. He imagined it ... at least he tried. But his imagination could not do him justice, it seemed as if he were slipping away. He couldn't stand it any longer, he had to go to him, immediately. His body moved seemingly without his help, his legs carried him further and further. He ran along the street, but still he didn't seem to get away. He ran faster, but it didn't change anything. He became more and more desperate, but after running for hours, as it seemed, without covering a meter, he gave up. What was going on? He got down on his knees, he could no longer hold back the tears. He wanted only one thing, to hug him again. Author's note: This story contains violence and clear content.

Disturb My Peace (Revising)
I adored the way love appeared on the big screen-two people destined to go to great lengths just to be together. Above all else, they bent the world to make space for their love. And yet, I never once asked why: if love is boundless, without constraint, why does it so often arrive as an interruption-demanding more than it can give? Maya says love recognizes no barriers. I take that as gratitude for those with genuine hearts and sound minds. As for me, if you must intrude, disturb my peace-not my time. I remember the first time you let my heart bleed. We were young, and I prayed to God to change your mind-but my life was just beginning. I told myself, if it's meant to be, it will find its way back to me. So I wiped my tears and continued on my way. But then I found you again. Maybe I should have turned the other way. Maybe I should have been harder, colder, wiser. But something in me stayed soft. And just maybe-you were the answer. So I stayed. And I pray that my love for you won't be the end of me.Complete
