Aliaa And Gaza

Episode 18's

Day by day Aliaa passed. During his last assignment in Jabalia (there was Hafsha as well as dong ye kann to keep Qudsi and Asima ^-^) , Shafa discussed with Aliaa and Aisyaa about returning to Egypt.

"Aisha, are you going back to Egypt?" Ask Shafa.

"No. I'm moving to Ramallah with Qudsi. There's a friend of mine there."

"If you were Aliaa?"

Aliaa. He lowered. What should he answer? 3 Eyes to see it. There are Shafa, Jannah, and Hafsha waiting for the answer.

"What we are fighting for is not just our homeland. But also the honor of the world's Muslims. We defend Al Aqsa. The first Qibla of Islam. That's why we fought to death." ; "I'll settle here." ; "How are you doing in Gaza, son? Uma hope you can return to Egypt soon." ; "Aliaa, hurry home. We all miss you here". Those words revolved around Aliaa's head.

"A-I'll..."

"Aliaa Jawablah. The continuation of all this depends on your choice" said Hafsha.

Aliaa looked at Hafsha. A pair of eyes expecting Aliaa to stay in Gaza. Yep. Aliaa knows. Hafsha has been trying hard to train Aliaa. It was Hafsha who chose Aliaa to be the next generation of Al-Aqsa liberators. Is that worth wasting?

Every choice has benefits. But Aliaa could not choose both. If he returns to Egypt, he will gather with his family and be able to continue his education in peace. If he stays in Gaza, he will fight alongside Hafsha, Izzati, Khalah, Zuhair and other Gazans to defend Al-Aqsa.

Aliaa took a deep breath. He has made his choice. He returned to Egypt and remained in Gaza. Aliaa confirmed her choice. He hoped that this choice was best for him and wished Allah to be pleased with him.

"I will stay in Gaza until the angel of death takes my life." Aliaa replied firmly.

Jannah smiled looking at Aliaa. He knew Aliaa would choose that answer. While Shafa was testing Aliaa, whether he had settled on his choice.

"I want to meet them. But what is fought here is not just a homeland! But also the honor of the world's Muslims. The first Qibla of Islam! Al Aqsa." Aliaa replied firmly.

"All right" said Shafa.

The day quickly passed. Today a team of journalists and a team of volunteers from Egypt returned. Shafa, Jannah, and the rest of the team of journalists took their farewells to Aliaa and Aisyaa.

" May God take care of you." Shafa said while hugging Aliaa and Aishaa.

Aliaa smiled, then prayed back to Shafa. Same with Aishaa.

"Tell it to our families, God willing, we will be fine. There is a God who takes care of us" said Aliaa.

Aisha nodded in agreement. Aqsha or Qudsi was already in his carriage. Aishaa's friend had come to pick up Aishaa.

"May Allah have mercy on you Aliaa."

"Jazakillah Aisha. May God take care of you wherever you are."

2 The friend hugged. I don't know if they'll ever meet again or not. At least they prayed for each other. Aliaa looked at her Junior High friend who was starting to move away. Aliaa felt Aisha's smile never fade away.

Aliaa went back into the house. Yasmeen and Nadiah's house was deserted. In 2014, the house contained 5 people. In 2016, the house contained 4 people. In early 2018, the house contained 6 people. And now, it only contains 2 people.
