It feels as though a year has passed when in reality it was just a night in the last days of summer.
The breeze began to cool, and the scent of rain drew nearer and nearer.
The leaves of the trees started to turn yellow, to fall to the ground,
leaving the trees bare and waiting for their spring to bloom once again.
I stood in the middle, neither memories falling to let me bloom again,
nor my eyes rain to refresh myself and relieve the burden that has weighed me down for years.
** Lisan **
The night was falling and the day was ending, and Lisan began to try to start anew.
To start meant to forget and leave everything behind, and not just rely on sleep to avoid facing the matter.
The truth is, no one truly forgets, we just move on from things somehow,
hoping that our paths won't cross again.
The sun rose with a glimmer of hope,
accompanied by the chirping of birds as if they were dancing to the beat of a new beginning.
As usual, our Victoria's Lady shone with her elegant dresses and captivating smile,
leaving her special touch before leaving home to head to work.
On the opposite side, Lujain was heading towards college.
Lujain's car pulled up in front of the college entrance, and as she arrived, she collided with Bibars, who had just started working there as a literature and poetry professor.
Lujain: "Good morning, do you work here?"
Bibars: "Good morning, yes, I'm a new professor."
Lujain: "In which specialty?" (as she walks towards the entrance)
Bibars: "Literature and poetry, not far from your major," and he smiles.
Lujain: "Lisan is also interested in literature, Victorian literature to be exact," she's also smiling.
Bibars: "That's great! It seems we have something in common."
As they walked together towards the administration building, Bibar was going to start his work,
while Lujain was going to discuss the matter of the exhibition she wants to do at the college.
Before the day ends, and before Lisan returns home, she is still organizing her office.
Lisan received an unexpected visit from her friends just before leaving work to go home.
It seems she can't escape them.
It's as if they appeared out of nowhere... Iyas, Frounda, and Lujain, all at once.
"It seems like an invasion...the police are storming the place...umm no, it's the gang that's storming the place," said Lisan.
"Wait, what?! Are you serious? This is getting out of hand. We need to call the police right now!" Iyas said.
Frounda said, "Come on, enough of your jokes. Let's go."
Iyas carried Lisan's bag while Lujain, Frounda, and Lisan walked out of the office together.
They met with Kareem and Reem who were laughing at the scene in front of them.
Reem said, "We'll see you tomorrow, right?"
Lisan joked, "I'm being kidnapped. Won't you call the police?"
Kareem smiled and said, "Goodbye."
The commotion quickly subsided, and they all got into Iyas' car, heading to someplace outside the city.
It seems that they will know something that Lisan cannot talk about.
"I loved someone once, and then what?
I loved and then I hated love.
I mean, I hated to love, or maybe I was afraid to love, or maybe I just didn't dare to love because I wouldn't be able to trust the one I love." Lisan
Lisan is a dentist who leads a beautiful life with her friends who are trying to make her fall in love.
However, Lisan has a dark spot in her past.
She has not shared it even with her closest childhood friends.
Will Bibars be the cure? Or will he make her open a new chapter in her life for him?
