By: Abdul Aziz Ali Omer

Heind Ali is 25 years old pretty girl .She is one of my face book friends from Adelaide in South Australia. Her father Mr Ali works hard to provvide
his family with a decent life . By chance,Ihave diiscovered that she is a childhood friend of Reham, Rubah, Mariam , Rim, my neices who live there too She has one sister named Hana “We aren”t identical twins” Heind says with an invisible smile and promises to speak to .me later “I feel dizzy and tired” she apologizes and explains that as an effect of drugs prescribed by a doctor. In an another conversation, she says that she likes traditional food such as Kissra, Bamiya and Zigni She doesn”t like tea and coffee As a daughter of an immigrant father , “I”m living in Australia because my dream was work and going to university” she says duriig an isolation period in her room because of cold resulting from a virus infection. She complains a bout lack of sleep, sadness and depression ” I feel like staying in a hotle” she tells me before she begins to snooze on the dining table When I have asked her about what she would do after recovery from her ordeal, she has replied she would go shopping , buy me a gift and send it to Sudan unhappily noting that the authorities have recebtly closed the borders to prevent travellng to Khartoum ” I will do my best to send you a present which I”m planning to be a surprise” she says while opening her wardrobe “I have lots of clothes but most of them have been worn-out” she has remarked According to her, she suffers from a cerebral palsy and learning disbilities yet that never inhibit her from pursuing her study and dream of being a pre-school teacher She refuses a husband imposed by her parents as she wants to get married with the human who she loves regardless of age differences When I talk a bout a problem, Heind says “please don”t worry” How gentle and kind she is! At last, I would like to thank for her iinvitation for me to cone to Australia to work with her cousin and brother- In-law That’s a generous offer “I have a question”” is a phrase Heind often uses to attract me and raise my curousity even when I”m upset. It sounds as beautiful as “I have a dream”‘ in Martin Luther historical speech With more ” I have a question” from her more answers from me distract her from the pain she feels in her solitude for healing I wish her a good health
