Gathering Emotions

Now feel the words with a melodious playback! Presenting to the readers, a fine musical touch in the background while you continue reading. (Press Play) Some people own this magical aura that whenever you see them, a reflexive emotion of ecstasy builds up in you. You feel like spending a greater span of time with them. You wish that the moment should never cease. Their words feel like the melodies you can never get tired of listening. Their actions become a record of events that you can replay numerous times and still won't yawn out of boredom.

She informed me that they left Syria last month. It was the very next day that we spoke. I became a little restless but she assured me that it was all planned and now we have our own house in the capital of Egypt, that is Cairo! I am overwhelmed. I’m still telling every friend of mine this news ever since the phonecall. But that wasn’t all about the phone call, mom even asked if I pray. I didn’t answer it but I know she knows the answer. I never liked to believe in God and now that the two of them don’t ask me to pray, I’m free to do as I please. Don’t get me wrong,...
