The Queen

The Queen They were smirking at her in a way. She was unsure of the decision she has made, but her courage never let her give away.

Traveling miles from her land, in search of future for her shadow, carrying a small hand luggage on her back which contains responsibilities of her tale. When you looks at her, all you see. She’s looking at everything that’s new and scary. ‘Yallah yallah’,when she hears, she’s confused at once. She looks around, here and there and calm herself down.

It’s her responsibilities which made me come here where humans are like me in different ways, its hard for her to explain, thinking of home from where she came. She collects herself thinking, maybe her step to work would improve her families lifestyle. She waited long to reach this foreign land now. Now waiting for her sponspor to response. She turns around and realized her own community members are giving her strange look like a stain on her cloth but when I saw her, I smiled at her.

She looked at me as if I was a ray in this cloudy sky. She smiled back at me in such way like a hope in the bay. I looked at her and just left, because I saw her sponor recognized that she is his housemaid, yallah amshee he said, I knew her journey just beginning. I knew her meter is down and prayed to God that she finds good house where she will be treated like a human being and will return back home on her feets.

I have noted in many cases some travel back in casket or a wheelchair. Some never meet their fate and the rest? Go missing. Whenever I see this warrior in their uniform. I bless them in such a way, that i hope they achieve their goal and land back to their loved ones for whom they had travelled to touch the sky.

I know her agent must have told her fairy tales there is a country where money grows on plants and tree just rub the lamp and I’m your Genie. You wishes will be fulfilled like your dream. Trust me Im the only Genie when actually he’s the Jin. She trusted her agent who sold her out without her knowledge she only realized when she reach.

Five figures aren’t always same. Some get good sponsor who believe in God treat them like their family and friends, because they know she is The Queen of her own kingdom which she had left behind faraway from here.
