“What those men are trying to do, what they’re trying to sell you, this idea that you’re lost and they’re saviors and the rest of the world is evil, that what you need to do is bow and surrender and fight, they’ve been doing that for decades. You think you’re the first one?” Alia is unhinged and is so right. I feel for Abdullah though. The world is cruel and unfair; just need to grasp at some control.

It’s crazy how the kids of the people displaced from war seems so unaffected . I do hope they learn the details of what their parents went through because “the war I learned about in school” is wild to say when your parents lived through it.

My heart breaks for Atef . Even a decade later he is still doing the work to not burden his family and feel better about the situation. Him not even knowing where his brothers are 💔💔 also crazy that Bic was a worldwide pen in 1977 but I guess I need to brush up on pen history too

Oh Mustafa 💔 fell in love with him so quick and was taken away just as fast
