The Invisibles

I woke up and I found out my whole body was gone. I tried to scream a sound came out. I couldn't believe it! What if my family are looking for me and they find out I'm indiscernible. If my voice is heard and they can't see where I am they'd feel scared and abscond.

But at least I could see something and hear everyone. I didn't know what to do. I saw a portrayal of myself so I remembered my body and began to cry. Suddenly I heard a scream. What was that?
It was my sister Khamael.
''Oh no, what happened to my little sister?''
''I'm here, I can't see myself either,'' I answered.
''Huda, where are you?'' I didn't know what was going on. Maybe something demonic might have happened to my body. Some devil might have cut my body off. Khamael ran and told mama and Ghadeer about what happened to my body.
''Mama, come to our bedroom now, I can hear Huda's voice but I can't see her anywhere!'' Khamael exclamined.
''What on earth is going on here?'' Baba asked. He was in his and Mama's room working on his computer.
''Huda has just vanished, we can hear her but we can't see her anywhere,'' Mama replied.
I cleared my throat and began to speak.
''Look everyone, I woke up and I also found out my body was gone. I can see and hear you. I saw a picture of myself, I wanted to cry so I did.''
Mama cried, Khamael cried, Ghadeer cried and even I cried. Baba wasn't crying but he looked like he was going to.

At night we went to the jam3a at Khalo's house. Everyone got dressed except me because my body was gone. My wardrobe fell open. My clothes were gone. I didn't take any of my clothes. I was wondering who it was. Only my perfume, books, glasses, bags and shoes were tangible. We all got to Khalo's house. Everyone was there on time. Khalo Hasan had noticed I was invisible. Everyone started noticing too.
So they asked about me.
''I'm here everyone, hello,'' I said.
''Oh no, where is she?''  they asked.
''Look, my daughter had woken up this morning and found out her body was gone. We can hear her but we can't see her anywhere,'' Mama answered.
''Poor Huda,'' Julan said sadily.
''How did she wake up like that?'' Khala Zainab asked.
''I don't know, I have no who took my sister's body,'' Ghadeer said.  They all started crying, even Zanooba cried, the cute little baby girl.
Everyone went to the table to eat dinner except me. I didn't feel like eating. But the food suddenly fell into my mouth.

I woke up the next morning. My body was back. I was visible again. I was so happy I jumped in my bed. Khamael was pleased to see me so she joined me in the bed so were both jumping like crazy. Ghadeer saw us and joined in too.

The Secret Key and Sleepwalking

This is my story of how I was sleepwalking and the adventures I was involved in my dream.
We had just moved to Al Tauwun in Mamzar 1,building. Me and Khamael share a room but Ghadeer has her own room. Khamael didn't appear in this story so I had my own room. But I told her on Skype anyway.

One day I was checking something on my laptop,which is facebook of course. Suddenly I felt somndent so I finished my work quickly and I said goodnight to Mama and Ghadeer and gave them a hug and a kiss.
I got dressed in my pajamas then after that I brushed my teeth,setted my alarm on Salatul Fajir and nuzzled into my bed.

I woke up in a dream,I found myself in a different house but in the same room. Weird isn't it?
I looked at my watch. It was 4am and I was horsing around in my dream in the middle of the night.
I looked at myself in the mirror. I noticed myself I looked different. I wore a black shella,abaya,red glasses,siver shoes and white socks. I sneaked in the corridor,everything looked different too. There were stairs. ''Am I living in a strange house?'' I asked myself. I went downstairs into the hall.
I fell down. I looked down,I had stumbled on a handbag. I glared at the hall. Nothing looked different,the furniture was the same. I walked to the door. Beside the door I saw an additional table with a bunch of keys.
One of the keys were silver and sparkling. There was this secret key,I saw it in my own eyes.
I took the handbag I had tripped on then I grabbed this secret key with my right hand and unlocked the door and went outside. I was in the garden. It was very dark and I could see stars glittering in the sky.
I opened the main door of the house and walked into the streets. This place is slumberous,I thought.
There were only a few cars moving. I crossed the street slowly and carefully. I saw a mosque in front of me and two buildings next to it. ''Let's go into this mosque and pray there,'' I said to myself.
I agreed to myself so I crossed the street and hurried to the mosque. As I walked towards the mosque there were lots of sand. I really hate walking in sand it makes my beautiful shoes dirty and I have to wash them.

In the women's prayer room outside there were two doors. In the right hand side and the left.
I opened the first one it was locked then I opened the other one it was locked too.
''Oh no,what do I do now,stand there and wait till it's prayer time then someone can come and unlock it,'' I said to my imaginary friend. Aha,the secret key,I thought. I took the key out of my handbag,unlocked the door and marched in. It was dark and spooky so I turned on the light. There was an ablution place. Then where's the prayer room? I thought.
Finally,I saw a door,opened it and went inside. The room was large. There was a shelf with Quran readers,salah clothes and prayer mats. I found a spot to pray in front of a clock that said it was 5:05. I heard the Adhan then I prayed.

I finished praying then hurried outside. I had my eyes on my watch. It was 5:15. So I ran outside,crossed the streets carefully and at last I reached our home. I woke up,I found myself in the corridor. Everything was back to normal. I saw the main door of our house,it was unlocked so I locked it. It was salah time for Fajir and my alarm suddenly went of. I accidentally setted my alarm at 4am. I was about to go to the bathroom,I accidentally unlocked the door of our house. I had been sleepwalking. I heard the bathroom door open. Ghadeer came out.
''Did I just hear something,what was that?'' she asked.
''I just locked the door,'' I panted.
''What's wrong?''
I was too diffident to say. Mama woke up.
''What's wrong with her?'' Mama asked Ghadeer.
''I don't know,she's acting weird,'' Ghadeer replied.
''What's wrong with you today?'' Mama asked glaring at me.
''Nothing,I'm fine,okay,''I sighed.
I walked away into the bathroom to do my wudhoo they were still staring at me. I didn't feel like telling them what happened so I decided I'd tell them the next morning after I wake up.

Getting Lost

I was almost 14 years old when I wrote this story and my 14th birthday was coming up. I was born in 1997 in the Royal Free Hospital(mentioned in the birth story) in London. I live with my mum and I have two sisters called Khamael and Ghadeer. Khamael is oldest and I'm the youngest. She's 21 years old and she's two years older than Ghadeer. I like school,homework,pizza,chocolate,ice cream and pancakes.
But the worst thing that happened to me in my life and also most thing I hate is getting lost so I'm going to tell you my story of how I got lost in a store.

We were at my uncle's house first drinking tea. I don't drink tea by itself but I drink milk with it.
My uncle's name is Khalo Hasan and he has three children,Zozo,Mustafa and Batool. My other uncle named Khalo Baqir and cousin Aliya had just came from London. We were discussing and planning our outing to the snow park at the mall of the Emirates. So we got dressed so me,Zozo,Aliya,Mustafa,Batool,Khamael,Ghadeer,Khalo Baqir and Khalo Hasan went in the car.
But we went in mama's car so we chatted and listened to the tape of Anasheed.
We reached at last. It was prayer time so we had to go to the prayer room. Aliya had a pack of paper turbas for all of us. We finally finished praying and went to this place. But the problem was the prize of the snow park for 2 hours was too expensive so we couldn't afford that. We wandered around the shops and took pictures at some beautiful places we've seen. We went to the food court so Aliya bought a KFC chicken and water bottles for us. I really hate KFC.

We finally went to Borders but I forgot to take my Borders card. I went to the children's section and went to look for books I wanted to buy. I saw Jacqueline Wilson books I've just read. Then I saw some love Jacqueline Wilson books like 'Lola Rose'. I looked at 'Goosebumps' but it was so sad because I couldn't find 'The Night of the Living Dummy'. I booked some books in my head that I wanted to buy for later on which is 'The Naughtiest Girl Again by Anid Blyton' and 'Twins At St.Clares by Anid Blyton' that Aliya wanted to get me. I looked for Harry Potter books but there was only one book called 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Halows', there were no other books.  I finally finished and went to look for them but there was no sign of them. I looked where I last saw them but they were also not there. I then realized I was lost so I said to myself ,''What do I do now? I'll just wait till they find me but they never forget about me.''
I stayed calm and stood near the door so they can find me easily. Meanwhile,they were walking towards the car park. Khamael wanted to hold my hand but she realized I wasn't with them. Ghadeer started crying and said,''Oh my god,what do we do now?'' They were all very worried.
Khamael said,''I know where Huda is,she's in Borders.'' But they didn't know where Borders is so Khamael started running like crazy,her shoes almost fell off. Then she saw a young girl with a red scarf. She recognised this girl and shouted my name,''Huda,Huda,thank god you're all right,we were so worried about you!'' she said. At last she found me so we to Cafeteria Al Ijaza and ordered juice.

The next day me,mama and Khamael went to Mirdif City Centre and they bought me books and a mobile phone. The mobile phone was a good idea.
