بِسۡمِ اللّٰہِ الرَّحۡمٰنِ الرَّحِیۡمِ
" In the name of Allah , the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful."
There was chaos all around the bus, screams everywhere, ear piercing screams.
Ringa Ringa Roses
I gripped the nearest seat to me, as I felt the gravitation dragging me down, I gripped it tightly and looked around to find the ladies holding on to something or another.
A Pocket full of poises
There were still screams everywhere, the lights blinked, and I could see in those blinking lights, the harsh light coming from the ipad that was on the floor of aisle, its speaker still blaring around.
Ashes! Ashes!
My heart felt like it's going to burst, and I honeslty felt like I was having a heart attack, my eyes clouded with tears.
We All Fall Down
The screams there were able to make people deaf, as the bus fell down from the mountain leading all of us to our ends.

"I won't bite. . .yet. . .I promise"
He said with a teasing smirk.
Walking in the rain didn't sound like a bad idea. Naima didn't want to sit in a car alone with him.
As her luck was rare, the thunder clapped and she found herself racing into a practical stranger's car.
That wasn't the plan.
Naima looked at him weirdly. "Fine. . .but don't try anything funny."
"You have my word. I won't try anything. . . funny, Habiba."
She could have voiced her disapproval in his insistent need to call her Habiba. But there were much more bigger problems.
***
Blurb.
A bump in the high school hallway?
Cliché. . .I know.
But it did happen. And personally Naima hated clichés.
She was clearly going to hate him too.
But she didn't design life. No one did.
And Tawfiq had a way of sneaking up into people's lives if he wanted.
And he wanted to sneak into the one hijabi in his French class.
Things start not to match up with what Naima knows and questions are raised.
Everyone hides something from the world. . .
Even stars hide behind clouds on a cloudy night.
When the clouds move, will a beautiful starry night be seen or a dark sky with no stars?
As the saying goes, Nothing is really truly hidden...
Forget Disney and fairy tales.
For this is a whole different tale.
WARNING ‼️ ⚠️
You'll laugh with them.
You'll cry with them.
You'll hate some with a passion.
You'll love some with the same passion.
