Behind The Mask - Episode 1 The First Glimpse

Aliya was standing outside her new school.

She was a little nervous and thinking to herself:

"Will everything be okay?"

Suddenly, someone touched her shoulder.

It was her cousin Zara.

Zara said,

"Come on, let’s go inside. I know you’re nervous, but everything will be fine."

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHqVT8yDX6

Aliya gave a small smile.

She felt better now… because she wasn’t alone anymore.

Zara held her hand and took her inside.

At the gate of Class 7,

Aliya stopped and looked at the whole class.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWnjxWMrf6

The girls were sitting on the left side,

and the boys on the right.

Then suddenly…

Aliya’s eyes stopped on one boy.

She whispered to Zara:

"Is that Zayan?"

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSMgaBocIM

Zara replied:

"Yes, he’s your dad’s friend’s son. Do you remember him?"

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fQ967VMGz

Aliya said,

"I saw him when we were little… but today, he feels different."

Zayan was sitting with his best friend Farhan, laughing.

Zara introduced Aliya to her own best friends:

Maya and Farah.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmk9FRje05Y

Farah was funny, childish, and always made the class laugh.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQmrDrezJU

Maya was mature, serious, and sometimes got angry quickly.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzPFz3jJYy

Zara was sweet, but she only talked to her close friends.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7X5mHaNJvI

Zayan was tall, smart, and the kind of boy who loved to enjoy life.

His best friend Farhan was funny — the class clown —

and he always argued with Farah over silly things.

Aliya sat with Zara, Maya, and Farah in class.

As usual, Farah and Farhan were fighting again.

Zayan was laughing at something,

and Aliya kept looking at him again and again.

She told herself:

"I’m a new student. I don’t have time for silly things right now."

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IHcE7Gm0Y

But then a thought came from her heart:

"But… when does the heart ever listen?"

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrIKgIOKg8

That night, Aliya was sitting in her room,

still thinking about Zayan.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqX0MPJG78

She took out her diary… and started to write:

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3L5utRFw9P

Dear Diary,

Today I saw him… Zayan.

It felt like an old memory came back into my life.

I don’t know what it was about tha

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdKbVnbJQf

t moment… but for a second, my world stopped.
