I was sited on the waiting chair outside Khalil’s room. Tears continuously fell to my chin my eyelashes were constantly dripping tears. This is all my fault, if I had not left Khalil alone nothing like this would happen. Why! Why? Did I leave him home alone? My tears were uncontrollably falling, I didn’t care about the people looking at me, this is a hospital and I’m sure I’m not the first person to have cried in here before. Noor! She must have done something to him, I know it I just know that she wouldn’t give me empty threats. I should have listened when she said she will hurt Khalil, I’m such a fool, I foolishly followed Rayan, why did I do that?"Khalil!" I whimpered If anything happens to him I won’t spare Noor, I won’t let her be. She is the cause of everything since day one. I slowly wiped my tears when I heard footsteps coming in my direction. I knew it is Abu, I didn’t want him to see me crying. Abu brought Khalil to this hospital, he says it’s the best hospital in the cit

I can’t be thankful enough for what happened. This still feels like a dream, a dream I don’t want to ever wake up from. I can’t believe, everything is going to be fine, after a whole year of tears and pain, Khalil is finally going to get better.As I left the doctor's office, I head down to see Khalil. I can’t wait to break the news to him. He will be so happy, I bet he won’t believe me until the doctor tells him. Oh lord, thank you for everything. I had a broad smile on my face when I walked into Khalil’s room, but the smile faded once I didn’t see Khalil."Khalil,” I said but there wasn’t any response from him. I knocked on the bathroom door and placed my ear on the door. No sound was coming from inside, I opened the door and peeked my head though, Khalil wasn’t in the bathroom. "Khalil" I called out I wonder where he is. I was looking around the room when a nurse walked in "Hi, can you please tell me where Khalil is, I mean the patient that was treated here.""Uhm….I don’t know"

I stood in front of the door, continuously banging on it, I have been in this exact position for a couple of minutes, I need answers, I’m not leaving this house without Khalil. I never thought that Rayan will throw me out of his house. I know he is hiding something from me, if isn’t then he wouldn’t have stopped Abu from talking. I have to get Khalil out of there before they hurt him or do anything to him."Open the door," I yelled as I continued to bang on it."Open it! Where is Khalil? What did you do to him." I asked but still no response.They leave me no choice, If they don’t open the door on the count of three, I will call the cops."I’m gonna count from one to three, tell me where Khalil is or I will call the cops.” I said "One……two……three." I paused and looked at the door"That does it, If you can’t tell me where Khalil is then I have to use the authority." I dialed their number, and it rang for a couple of seconds before it ended, I called them again and on the second ring, i

5 years later After everything that has happened, I can’t believe I’m willingly going to that house. It’s been five years but I still haven’t forgotten a single thing that happened, how my feelings got hurt, how my emotions were played. I still remember that night like it was just a few minutes ago. FLASHBACK I braced myself although the whole night, I cried throughout as I was deeply hurt, deeper than a mirror could cut someone. I was told to leave the park because it was already time for it to close. I walked to a hobo corner and sat down, I didn’t care if it was safe or not, all I could think about is Khalil. My eyes had become small and a lot swelled, and my face had a lot of questions that my heart didn’t want to answer. My mind continuously replayed a question, ‘How did Abu know that Khalil isn’t actually a cancer patient’ if I remember clearly I never told him that. I was laid on the floor, tears streaming down and rain beating me. As the rain poured heavily flash of lightni
