The Beginning

                        It was a normal sunny day in bahrain, and everybody else was already awake. Nayla already was well on her way to the one person she could always count on . Her best friend Mariam. Their moms would some times look at them and say :


" Each one of those girls have half a heart when away from each other, but when together, they are one." 


They were a living testimony of soul sisters. When ever Nayla felt an unbearable pain in her heart, she knew something was wrong with Mariam. .Those thoughts were going through her head when she felt something was wrong. She called mariam right away .When Mariam picked up, Nayla knew she'd been crying.


Nayla : "Maryoom, love what's wrong ?". 


Mariam : " Salman left me Nayla . He thinks I cheated on him with his best friend and he knows his best friends' a player ".


When Nayla heard that , she told her driver to speed up, she sensed something terrible was about to happen. 


Mariam : "Nayla I'll talk to you later , but there's something I need to say before we hang up ...". 


Nayla didn't like the sound of her voice.


Mariam : "I love you , you've been and always be my other half.." 


Nayla felt tears coming down her cheek out of nowhere.


Nayla : "Mimo , stop talking like that , what are you up to ?". 


Mariam : "I swear I'm not up to anything , I just felt like saying " I love you " " 


Nayla knew she was lieing and that she was up to something


Nayla : " Aight , if you say so. Heads up , I'm 2 mins away ". 


Nayla hung up fearing the worst.

When she got to Mariam's house she literally jumped out of the car and walked through Mariam's garden. There was always something about her garden that was peaceful. Maybe it was the Jasmine Viens that hung from the wall , that always seemed remind her of Victoria Falls, or maybe it was the beautiful yet fragile pink roses, that seem to grow at the weirdest time of year. Nayla picked one and held it to her nose.She took a deep breath in and felt it's scent calm her down. Suddenly she felt it's thorns prick her deeply, which it never did . She knew something was definitly wrong.

She quickened her paces and opened the front door. She went and said hello to Mariam's mom. She kissed her hand and the crown of her head as if she were her own mother . She rushed to up the flight of stairs to Mariam's room . When she opened the door , she found all the pictures that Mariam and Salman had taken together. Along with their love notes and gifts they gave each other. Nayla looked at them and thought


 "Why the hell would he do something this bad to hurt Mariam?". 


She always knew Jaber was no good. Ever since he tried to forcefully kiss Mariam once at a party, but she never told Salman, even though Nayla told her to, she never did. While walking through Mariam's light honey coloured room with wooden flooring room, she noticed a letter with her name on it. Something was up. She opened the letter and started reading it .

" To My honeybee, you always knew the right thing to say when everything was wrong. You've always been idol, strong,tall,and kind. Not a day goes by when your not on my mind, just as you feel my pain, I feel yours. When your over-the-moon happy, i suddenly find myself jumping for no reason what so ever" 


Nayla laughed at that part, and contuined on" you've always been my guardian angel, even when your not around you always seemed to protect me even when your not around, your pure and sweet soul always kept me going and surronded me wherever I went. But I can't let you continue doing that. Salman broke my heart, and without a heart i can't live. When you read this letter, it'll be too late to do anything. Salman was my love and life , and I know that I can't live without him . I'am sorry honeybee, but you got live this life, without me, I love you, and I'll live within your heart as you have in mine, yours truley and blessingly, Mimo...."

Nayla Jumped off the bed and run towards the bathroom. There , was the turning point of her life , Mariam was lying lifeless on the bathroom floor with empty pill bottles around her. Nayla grabbed her, while crying uncontrollably 


Nayla : " Mimo, please don't leave me alone, I can't go on without you." S


he started preforming CPR while calling Mariam's mom. Mariam's mom screamed at the top of her lungs asking what's wrong with her .


Nayla : " She's not breathing, I can't feel her pulse!!!!". 


She rushed and called 999 while Nayla continued to preform CPR. Then Mariam opened her eyes and said 


Mariam : " Tell him, He's always been the light of my life" .


Nayla : "Mariam stay with me please".... 


But it was no use, she was gone. Nayla held Mariam's cold face to her head and started moving back and forth while reciting سورة ياسين over her lifeless corpse....

As you see, this is where all her troubles began and her demons came alive. When Mariam died, Nayla died along with her.
