COVER BY: Meromada_Floweritta

Alina was born in Palestine and has lived through some of the most intense and horrid wars in the country. At the age of 14, she and her family move to California for a new start. Since singing is her passion, she auditions for American Idol. As she journeys through the show, she receives a lot of praise for her voice, but she also deals with criticism and racism because she's Arab and Muslim. On top of that, she feels pressure because some fellow Muslims don't approve of her. Will her fame really be worth the heavy price she's paid for it?

NOTE: This story should have been rated PG-13 instead of G. I changed all my chapters to PG-13, but I don't know why it still says G.

There are endless examples of "girl hates boy, boy makes girl fall in love, boy and girl live happily ever after" stories. This is just another one. But that's not all. Nazeeha Afzal cared only for three things: God, her job, and her girls. She paid no attention to those around her and did what she had to do to be happy. To the world she was intelligent, independent, and responsible. For those who really knew her, she was pure-hearted, wise, and free spirited. At only 20, she understood how the world worked and she wasn't one to keep quiet about it either. And that's exactly why she and Ali would not get along. Ali Al-Ameen was every girl's perfect man. Charming, funny, and could sing Bollywood songs for days, Ali had no problem becoming best friends with every stranger he met on the streets. This 20 year old lived for excitement, adventure, and the thrill of being alive. It was a shame he fell in love with the one girl who was just like him in every way, but he'd never be able to see it. Nazeeha and Ali were two sides of the same coin, but Nazeeha lived her life carefully. She despised those who had nothing to worry about and strived to bring justice and equality to those harmed by the inequalities in the world. She never saw Ali as anything more than a spoiled, rich kid and he finally met the one person whose walls he couldn't break through. This is your ordinary love story, but about a pair of extraordinary souls. Part of the Al-Ameen Family series: 1. Through the Dark 2. One Way or Another 3. Good For You 4. Naina

COMPLETED: 28th OCTOBER, 2017 --------------------------------------------- "Every time she cried she remembered that every teardrop is a waterfall but her tears weren't waterfalls, they were floods and every time they came, they shook the building of her soul to its foundation. Yet, like floods do, they spread a layer of oblivion over her soul so it wouldn't know it was falling apart" -------------------------------------------------------- Think of the worst possible thing that can happen to you? Does losing your parents, one way or another, count? Because that is what Amna has been through. She lost her father to death and her mother to life. But she gained some beautiful relations throughout those intense years too. Nonetheless, she's one of the most cheery people out there Her theory: all that is wrong with her life is because of her. Then, just like a breath of fresh air, comes Mason Rogers and both of them become best friends instantly while Amna is on vacation. 5 years pass They cross paths again by a certain coincidence on Amna's part and no coincidence at all on Mason's part. But there is something peculiar about Amna. She's no longer one of the most cheery people. She has changed like the day turns into the night. Like the sun is replaced by the moon. Now it is up to Mason to figure her out, to bring back the girl he calls his best friend. Amna tries hard to resist Mason, to not let him break down her walls. Fate has its own plans, and they will unfold in the most beautiful way possible --- or will they?
