"STOP"

AL-KHWARIZMI 3

once upon a time,
there’s this one girl named
Ain who was transferred to
a boarding school located
very far from her
hometown.

page-2

In the hostel, she got to
share a room with 3 other
roommates. they all seem
pretty friendly but that’s what
Ain is scared of. ‘FRIENDS’.
why does she’s scared of
having friends? well that
sounds weird, right? but soon
enough, you’ll know why.

page-3

It was her very first day
being in her class. the
moment she walked in the
classroom, everybody was
staring at her, not knowing
who she is. her whole body
was shivering from
nervousness. she’s scared
of her classmates’ first
impression about her.

page-4

After the first class
period, there was a group of
pretty girls coming up to her
desk. with that, she ran away,
not wanting to talk to the
girls. the girls were left
dumbfounded and shocked to
see Ain running away from
them. ever since then, no one
ever talked to Ain anymore.

The next week, her teacher
announced that the exams will be
held the next month. since then,
everyone including Ain was
studying very hard to score for
the upcoming exams. but, Ain
was struggling with mathematics
and science. when she opened
the text book, she could not
process anything she read from
the book. so, she closed the book
and decided to take a nap before
continuing to study.

On the weekends, she decided
to study for mathematics.but she
understands nothing. literally
nothing. she could not help but to
cry her eyes out. her roommates
witnessed that and decided to
talk to her. but Ain wasn’t feeling
like opening up to someone, so
she kept her problems to herself.

After the exams were all
done, it’s time to get her
exam paper. she was very
disappointed with herself
when she got her marks. 25
and 42. she got 25 for
mathematics and 42 for
science. she was so humiliated
and ashamed to face her
classmates.

The next day, the
counsellor told her to meet at
the counselling room. on her
way to the counselling room,
she piled up all her courage
and decided to talk to the
counsellor about her
problems.

page-9

After almost 1 hour
talking to the counsellor, it
was found that she was a
bully victim in her previous
school. since then, she was
scared to be friends with
everyone because she’s
afraid that she’ll get
bullied again.

Because of her past, she
couldn’t make friends. every
day, she felt so lonely and
sad as she has no one to talk
to.

page-10

Days went by, and she also
has come to her senses. she
finally made her first move to
find friends. she went up to
the group of pretty girls and
greeted them. at first, they
don’t really want to make her
as their friend, but soon after
she explained her situation,
they slowly accepted her and
eventually became her best
friends.

page-11

She found a different side of
herself, a happy and friendly
version of herself. she realized
that this is the real Ain, the
Ain that she’s been looking for
and the Ain that she wanted to
be.

Ever since then, she became
friends with everyone. her
friends helped her with her
studies by studying together.
she eventually got better in
mathematics and science.

page-12

The moral of the
story is :

don’t let your past rule
your life. because every
thing can change in the
future. move forward
because your life isn’t
going to stay in the past.
