The nightmares I had before and after blackout.

1. It was a cloudy day when we started the journey in the morning, enthusiastic, excited, and happy about going to the highest peaks my father would talk about , filled with snow, and walking sheep, a sight I would see all through the Eid coming. We board a bus, reciting "Hamud", praise be to my Lord, Allah . 
Unless we reached a place , full of sheep , with offwhite wool, And I jumped in happiness looking at a little lamb , and asked my father to get me one. The dealer was not a muslim , I did not know his religion. He did not sell it to us , unless we would do something unacceptable.  He wanted us not to recite "Hamud" on our way back . We refused the deal and started walking the rest of the slope for a better place , and lambs. I could climb some steps but then I fell down , I tried again , and fell down again , when I saw all my fellow men already at the high peaks. I screamed out , they did not turn to me, may be they did not hear me . I was left with the merciless dealer , who all of a sudden grabbed my hand , twisted it , and threw me down the mountains . 
I STILL DO NOT KNOW WHAT HIS RELIGION WAS. 


2. I was sleeping after my entire world was blacked out , we could not talk to eachother , we could not see eachother , I was scared that night , all I could hear was dogs barking and some footsteps . The footsteps scared me more than a gun could. As I fell asleep , I saw myself lying in my room, in despair , listening to the voices outside, screaming, weeping, angry voices. As I could stand up to see who it was, the door of my room opened so loud , and my my mother came in . She was bruised on her face , the left eye , the left cheek , and she was weeping. I asked her  "mama kyahai gow" , All she said was  "aes nai bachow! , asi nai trayan ". 
Believe me since then I am scared to sleep .
