With the end of the day, her excitement was at peak; she had waxed and downloaded some romantic songs off iTunes. Eva promised to buy her some scented candles and some condoms. She hoped this meeting with Amir bring some relief in her life. She couldn’t wait to see the next day.
Sometimes, it troubled Aarifa that how much they had grown up for their age. Law stated that it would be considered rape if someone had physical relationship of any kind with a girl younger than sixteen years. What she was planning with Amir was illegal, despite her consent. But so was too put someone in a situation that suicide seems a good idea.
Elders who had made the rules and regulations sometimes forget to apply on themselves. In an ideal world of laws and orders, she would have talked with Rosie or Martian about murder at school but that wasn’t the case for her, was it? was there any way for her get out of the pain she deep below her chest?

But Amir was there too and she was drunk playing truth and dare with Eva and Tessa just an hour ago. Moreover, Tessa seemed fine to her when she was here. Ignoring all the crazy thoughts and full of lust, Aarifa looked at Amir.
Amir looked back at her and walked into the house. Hurriedly, Aarifa changed the music to jazz from my pc, looked at Evan Rachel wood and her in wallpaper for a second and rushed to bathroom attached her room. she got a message from mom—going out. It might take time. Amir will be there with you. Take care.
