Behind The Mask - ‎? Behind the Mask – Episode 7: “Heartbeats in the Silence” ‎✍️ by TheSilentPen

After hearing that one sentence…

‎

‎“She’s not from this school.”

‎

‎Aliya’s heart broke silently.

‎

‎She didn’t cry.

‎She didn’t say anything to anyone.

‎But something inside her… changed completely.

‎Life didn’t stop.

‎School didn’t stop.

‎

‎Soon, it was time for 9th-grade exams.

‎

‎Everyone got busy with studying, revision, books…

‎

‎Except Aliya.

‎

‎She was there —

‎physically present,

‎but mentally somewhere far away.

‎

‎Aliya didn’t smile much anymore.

‎She didn’t talk a lot.

‎She stopped laughing like she used to.

‎

‎Farah said one day:

‎“Aliya… you’re not like before.”

‎

‎Aliya smiled softly and replied:

‎“Just tired.”

‎

‎But in her heart, she whispered:

‎

‎“I’m tired… of dreaming about someone who was never mine.”

‎

‎9th class exams came.

‎Aliya gave every paper on time,

‎but her mind… was always thinking of him.

‎

‎And then —

‎10th grade started.

‎

‎In 10th class, everything felt normal again.

‎Miss's lectures, Farhan’s jokes,

‎Farah’s random laughs.

‎

‎Zayan was still there too.

‎But now…

‎Aliya didn’t even look at him.

‎

‎She didn’t sit in the front row anymore.

‎She didn’t draw flowers in her notebook.

‎And… she didn’t smile at all.

‎

‎Then one day… something strange happened again.

‎

‎Aliya was walking near the staffroom.

‎She heard Zayan’s voice inside.

‎

‎He was talking to Miss.

‎

‎Zayan said:

‎

‎“Miss… I used to like someone.”

‎“But she got engaged to someone else.”

‎“I was just timepass for her.”

‎

‎Miss:

‎“I’m so sorry, Zayan.”

‎

‎Aliya stopped.

‎She heard it all.

‎

‎Her heart… felt confused.

‎

‎She was happy that girl left.

‎

‎But at the same time…

‎she felt bad for Zayan.

‎

‎Because now…

‎both of them were heartbroken.

‎

‎That night, she wrote in her diary:

‎

‎“I see him every day…

‎but today, I saw the emptiness in his eyes.”

‎

‎“Maybe now he’ll understand…

‎what silence really means.”

‎

‎To Be Continued…

‎

‎Two hearts...

‎both broken…

‎and one silent connection begins. 💔
