Aliyah moves from London, England, to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and joins a new school, leaving behind everything familiar. On her first day, she learns about a mandatory class bonding trip to help students make friends and get along with each other by bonding through numerous activities. Her mum signs her up for the trip, leading to new experiences. What happens next?

I didn't know what to say, so I stayed quiet. After a moment, Cris gently nudged my shoulder. "You should lie back. You'll hurt yourself more sitting up like that."

There was a long pause, and then, without really thinking about it, I leaned back on the bed, resting my head on his lap. He didn't say anything, but after a few moments, I felt his fingers gently running through my hair. It felt weirdly comforting, and for the first time in a while, I didn't feel so angry at him.
