My sister and I The day my sister left for England‚ something inside of me woke up. It felt like the desert sand being surprised by cool wet rain‚ my amazement and surprise was just the same. The reality that this was really happening‚ we really were being separated‚ all became too much for me. As close as two siblings could be‚ it is often difficult to distinguish between Kenza and I.

A late December night Like many other nights; it is late and I am tired‚ leaving the bar after my shift and driving home. It must be close to 4o’clock in the morning now; the roads are covered in snow like a cozy white blanket on a cold black night. I seem to be alone on this two lane highway; my headlights are the only ones shining‚ like two beckons in a lighthouse searching for others in the dark.
