1st Night
On 1 rainy night, Qarish went online and browse to a website to chat, after a long, boisterous chat with some foreigners, oversea students, he noticed a name, ‘Help Us’. Just curious, he clicked the name and a chatbox window appeared. He greeted Help Us. ‘Hi there’, he said. ‘Hi’ Help Us replied. ‘I’ll help you’ Qarish said with a smiley. ‘Thanks, I’m Farah by the way. I’m 17’, Help Us introduced herself. ‘I see, so you’re a girl. I’m Qarish, an 18 year old student and I’m from
2nd Night
‘I’m sorry I left in a rush yesterday’, Farah wrote. Qarish felt relieved, and glad, he asked, ‘What happened?’ ‘I heard gunshots last night; I’ve to hide. Sorry.’ Farah said. Qarish was immensely surprised, and worried as well, as if the incident happened to someone he cares a lot. He asked if Farah is okay and fortunately she’s fine. They chat again that night. Farah told him the misery the Palestinians are facing, gunshots are everywhere; crying is a norm, blood, debris and bombarded vehicles are all over the place. Qarish’s tears fell that night in front of his computer, thinking about the people suffering out there while he and peoples around him are living in comfort, Farah didn’t know he was crying. And again, all of a sudden, Farah wrote, ‘Qarish, there are explosions outside; I think it’s the tank. Wish us safe here. Please pray for our safety, bye’.
This time, Qarish went numb, he cried. ‘Wait! Don’t leave!’ There was no answer. On the keyboard, he cried. Tears fell vast on his cheeks. That night, he prayed all night and wish Farah, her family and all Palestinians are safe.
3rd Night
‘I’m glad you’re okay’ Qarish typed. Farah is still online. ‘I’m okay’ Farah said. ‘But my uncle and cousins died, they got heavily wounded because of the rockets last night. I’m scared!’ Farah added. From her words, he knows that she’s crying. ‘Your parents?’ Qarish asked. ‘They’re still okay. The hospital is unharmed. I’m visiting them everyday. I’m still hiding in my house right now.’ She type in smiling tears. There was a long pause then. Qarish asked a question, ‘Do you have a webcam?’. Farah said she does, and eventually turn it on along with the microphone. And there they saw each other. Farah is wearing a scarf; she’s in her room. It’s a small, tidy room, but cracked wall and a broken window spoilt the view. But Qarish is more fascinated to her looks. She’s very pretty, and her beautiful eyes are watery, as wet as her cute cheeks. She had some scratches at her left cheek. ‘Hi!’ they greet and smiled each other. ‘I’ll show you the views outside’. Farah said slowly. She moves her webcam to the window, and that night, Qarish saw the most unpleasant views on his lifetime. Smokes are everywhere, Buildings are crumbling down, and he could see some soldiers and people running everywhere. He even heard screams and gunshots He couldn’t type a word then. Farah type ‘Help us will you? Please do prayers to us, for our safety, for Muslims’ safety? I beg you. We need your prayers.’ she cried. Qarish cried as well, he couldn’t help out a lot but prayers. Just as soon as he reached for the keyboard to reply, He saw someone, he pulled Farah away from the computer, and the connection was lost! Qarish was speechless. He cried, he screamed, he trembled, and he was flabbergasted. ‘Farah!?’
And he cried. He couldn’t contact Farah from that day. But he kept praying for them. He’d decide that he should help out, no matter what.
