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."

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.

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?"

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYmCGSlP2W

Zara replied:

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

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx08S5lOFvp

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.

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZUkM5qD4z

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

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjjPdmd9EM

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

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JgRLKIIAZ

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

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."

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGuga0Tivc

But then a thought came from her heart:

"But… when does the heart ever listen?"

That night, Aliya was sitting in her room,

still thinking about Zayan.

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuV1x5JNGZ

She took out her diary… and started to write:

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPD9cLmKj6X

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

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