Distant FriendsA Chapter by Abdalla Maro JilloThe story is based on family, and friend love. it spells the love, struggle and unity among family and friends. There is also love and respect between two strong friends, no matter the social barriersINTRODUCTION It is said that in death, all things become clear. Mamush Ummi now knew it was true. As she watched her daughter (Anjali) clutch her chest and crawl to the ground in pain. Mamush knew the horror of her daughter’s suffering and now it was crystal clear that her daughter’s condition had elevated. People appeared, clustering over Anjali, trying to help her, but all in vain. It was that early morning when Daymian Mars woke up his eldest brother Jay Mars informing him of their sister’s condition. Moving out of his canopy bed, Jay Mars knew all was not well. Outside, it was pitch-dark. Something eerie penetrated the chill-cold air. Jay Mars stopped short, the sound resounding in his ears. In a wave of horror, he feared the worst; her sister’s condition turning from worst to critical. He briskly moved towards his sister outside the house and knelt down in front of her, trying to give the necessary possible help, but all his efforts proved fruitless. Ummi looked hopeless from her sitting posture, but she knew that it was not yet over until it was completely over. Imagine one of the worst feelings on earth, a mother watching her daughter suffer and knows that cannot help. “My sons be strong for your sister.” Ummi comforted her sons who stood stranded in front of their ailing sister. “Bring a vehicle to move your sister to the state hospital.” She instructed her sons. The state hospital was located in Arcadia, a town away from their current location. The sons respectfully obeyed the command, in love of their sister, and in help in that time of need. Only if Daymian Mars could have known that it would be the last time for him to see, touch and hear her only sister, he would not have allowed himself stay behind and let her sister go with her mother. Jay too was in preparation for the journey to school, to which it was situated in Arcadia, and there he would pay a visit to his sister. ************************************ © 2014 Abdalla Maro JilloAuthor's Note
