She was studying. Soon she fed up and thought to have a short break she started scrolling Facebook, and suddenly she got a text on messenger. "Hey beautiful! is it you in the profile picture?".

She ignored the text. After a couple of hours, she got another text "I just want to tell you, your heart is pure and made of gold. although I can't see you as you have cover your face with a sticker". She again ignored the Message apparently, but deep inside she was thinking about the guy...

Late in the night, she again got a message " hey! you are just a sister to me, can we talk as siblings? " . the girl thought, how pure and genuine this guy is, He is giving me respect. I must talk to him. Then they started chatting. they used to chit chat late in the night, early in the morning, in fact, every time. Soon the boy revealed, that they both are studying in the same academy and insisted her for a meet-up.

The girl hesitated at first, but the boy assured him that she is like her sister. They decided the spot, where they had lunch together.

The girl then introduced him to her friend's group saying, there is as such no relation between us except siblings.

time ran so fast, they used to meet, they lunched together. One day the boy called her to meet up at an inappropriate place, the girl thought, He has respect for me, he treats me like a sister. he isn't not going to do anything wrong. But, she was confused about how to take permission from her parents to go outside. Then she thought of an excuse. She lied to her parents that she want to go for group study at her closest friend's home ( where she often goes for some parties and stuff). Her parents allowed her.

The boy picked her up (from a spot they decided before), and they went to a hotel room. Where the boy told her! "I don't know when I fall in love with you, if we tell this world that we are just like siblings, no one going to accept and allow us to meet, let's have a name to our relationship". Then she gifted her a brand new cell phone and some branded makeover items. The girl was so happy, with having such an expensive phone and gifts. She came back home and hide the things.

Now they started gossiping like a couple. after some time boy again invited her for lunch, they had lunch together and shared a room. At the start, she felt uncomfortable with some inappropriate acts, but then the boy relaxed her.

This incident remained on her mind every time. They used to gossip every time. Now the boy insisted to share some nudes. At first, she hesitated. But, soon she accepted the request and send nudes. Days and weeks rushed and their feelings for each other became strong.

In the 6th month of their relationship, the boy demanded her to fulfill the desires of his friends too because he lost in a game and if she didn't do so, he will viral her nudes and videos.

The girl was very afraid and depressed in this situation. She was unable to tell this story to anybody. She was left with the option of going to that place only. She went there, it was a small apartment, where 2-3 boys were drunk, suddenly police arrived and arrest all (including the girl).

The officer called her parents too. When the parents arrived they saw their daughter they were shocked after listening to the whole situation. The girl's father who was already a diabetic patient had a sudden heart attack and lost his life.

Now she is living with her mother, they leave their home because everybody now knows about the incident. Their relatives cut off. They are living now hands to mouth.

Dear girls! don't respond to another gender. The only brothers you have are those born in your mother's womb. In our religion and society, there is not a single inch of permission for any kind of relationship before Marriage. Without getting nikhafied everything is haram. and how can you trust someone's somedays love and forget your parents? We girls have an only thing, that is our and our parent's honor, please take care of it.

And dear boys! I know in the end society is not going to blame you, it's our dilemma. But think one time of your mother and sister, They are also girls. think one time of the day of judgment. don't play with girls.
