It was a time when day met dusk and birds chirped testifying that to God belonged all glory.
Amina had just finished her evening prayer and sat in sujood (prostration) longer than usual.
She felt a sense of calm divinity enwrap her.
Doctors had ensured that her chemo sessions would be over before her 22nd birthday.
Tomorrow she will turn 22.
They had kept their promise. She thought and kneeled to thank God again.
Closing her eyes She felt free of sufferings, calamities, cancer and this worldly life.
Death couldn't have been planned better or tasted sweeter.
