True story from my friend

He asked me to sleep in his bed or sleep on the street

Realistic stories: I used to live in the Syrian capital (Damascus) with my family

We were not bombed in our area because we were in the capital

Where the capital was the least affected among the provinces from the war that ignited the country

We were almost safe

We only hear the sounds of bombing on the rest of the other Syrian governorates without anything happening in our area

One day I asked my mother to travel to another Arab country where my best friend lives

My mother was very afraid of me

But I managed to convince her and Dad that this would be better for my future

I will be able to help them if I work there

After I got my parents' approval and my girlfriend sent me the visa so I could travel through it

I started preparing myself for travel with great passion

It was my first time traveling alone and it was an adventure for me

I said goodbye to them and my parents started praying for me and my brothers were crying hard for my travels

It's the first time I've been away from them and from home

I told them I wouldn't be late and I joked them until I saw them laughing

I traveled to my girlfriend and when I arrived, I was amazed by the beauty of the area in which she lives

The first days I spent with her were so beautiful that we used to go out for walks every day

It's been 5 days since you traveled

My mother used to call me every day, but she lost her call two days ago

I called her several times but she didn't answer like I called my dad but he didn't answer me either

I got so worried and thought how to contact them

I called my aunt and heard her crying

I asked her why she was crying

You didn't answer me for a while and then you told me about the bombing of our house in Syria

My parents and siblings are dead

I couldn't believe at that moment

It was an unforgettable moment, one of the worst moments of my life

I asked her to stop joking and tell me the truth

I didn't want to believe, but she repeated what she said they were dead and buried

I used to imagine that I was dreaming and I had a bad nightmare and I wanted to wake up at that moment

But it has already happened and nothing changes the reality of reality unfortunately

I fell into hysterical depression

My friend was comforting me and talking to me a lot that God's destiny and destiny

And that this happened and I have to accept it

But I stayed like this for 3 months

I don't know what to do during that time

I can't go back to my country now and I can't stay at my friend's house anymore

It's enough that I sat with her the whole time

I asked her to look with me for a small apartment that might be cheap

So I can save some money and then think about whether to go back to Syria or keep working here

She did not agree to it and decided to live there

But I refused and told her I would go to her every now and then

She and I were looking for an apartment near her

In fact, we found someone who looked suspicious to me

He told us about his apartment and found it at an excellent price compared to what we found during our search a few days ago

A few days after I got the apartment, I decided to look for a job to live in

Since I only have a little money left

I don't know what to do after it's over

I searched social networks and some websites that offer job opportunities

But everyone was rejecting me because I am Syrian

I didn't know why, when I submitted my Syrian papers I was always refused

I don't have any money left now

I asked the owner of the apartment to give me a few days to manage myself and get the money, and he agreed to what I asked of him

Fifteen days later, I found him knocking on the door

When I opened it he asked me to rent the apartment

I told him I was looking for a job and soon I would give him his full rights

He was staring at me in a way that scared me so much

I asked him to leave so I could close the door

I'm starting to get worried, what should I do?

I don't have any chance in that city and I can't travel now and go back to Syria

At least I don't have a ticket

Two days later, the owner of the apartment came to me again

But this time he asked me something that really surprised me and made me cry at the same moment

He asked me to sleep in his bed or sleep on the street

I kicked him out at the same moment and I was sure I was alone after my family left this world

I have nothing and nobody but my girlfriend that I don't want to burden her with

And she bore her with me, but at that moment I ran to her and started crying so hard

I hugged her and complained to her about what happened to me

She asked me to live with her, she lives with her mother and brother always abroad

I agreed because I had no other choice

I went to the owner of the apartment and gave him and my girlfriend the key and took my clothes and we went

Over time, I found a language company and they accepted my education and I got a decent job and a good salary

My life has changed since then

After 5 years, the company manager asked me to marry him

I was very happy because he is a respectable person with a stature and forward thinking

I now live with him and I have 3 daughters who replaced me with my family

I made my own family

I always thank God for having them in my life

I thank my parents who taught me not to sell myself to anyone

And to protect myself always and in any circumstances.
