homecoming..

please be friendly.
please give me a chance.
please be understanding.
please dont be a bitch.

please dont be late.
please dont get lost.
please bring everything.
please be calm.

a foreign number appeared on the cell. i answered, expecting to hear a familiar voice. "Nura?"
confused, i listened closely. she spoke and slowly a smile appeared on my face. my mouth spoke without thinking, asking stupid questions that i can get the answers on the website. cursing in my heart, i took down the details i need and thanked her. i put down the phone and instantly jumped for joy. i kept smiling from ear to ear. my heart's saying "thank god, finally."

i looked at her with tears in my eyes. even by looking just through her eyes, i can see everything. tired. battered. worried. sad. strong. after all the stories i heard, she's gone a long way. still going strong. im so proud of her. i can only offer my empathy. and i regret.

dear God, help her get through your obstacle in life.
for i know You love her.
guide her and shower her with Your strength.
she needs it God.
