This Week's Quote:

Lee Chong Wei,you betrayed me!!!
I gulped in a lungful of air and smacked the shuttlecock across the court with all my energy.I cursed under my breath as my opponet served back with such ease,it ticked me off.I ran forward to hit the shuttlecock again but Lee Chong Wei,my partner, was faster and whacked it back to the other court.I smiled gratefully at Lee and focused on the game.
It went on for hours and I was completely drenched in sweat.Then the moment we've all been waiting for came.The points was so close and I felt my heart slammed into my ribs as the adrenaline pumped in my blood.I hit the shuttlecock across the court and cheers erupted around me.Lee ran towards me and embraced me in a tight hug,it knock my breath out.
I laughed and pulled away.We won!WE WON!I wanted to jump and scream that out to the whole world.My coach,Misdun Sidek,came running towards us and embraced us both.He had tears in his eyes and we all laughed in ecstasty.The host annouced our names and together we walked towards the stage.
Cameras flashed around me and I heard the crowd applauded.My face burned with pride and I couldn't help but smiled.Lee squeezed my hand and went on stage.I followed behind him but lost my balance.I felt the wind rushed past me.Time went slow and I was blinded by lights.
The ground touched my back and I landed on the floor with a loud thud.The pain entwined with my body and I winced from the pain.I cursed at myself as I realized I had just tripped and fell.In front of everyone.On live TELEVISION!I wanted the ground to eat me and run away from the shame.Someone pulled me up and I shielded my eyes away from the flashing cameras.Somewhere in the crowd,I heard somebody said: Izzati has just fallen!I repeat,Izzati has just fallen!
I wanted to punch that jerk and scream:Yeah just say that out loud why dont cha?!I bit my bottom lip in embarrassement as Lee Chong Wei appeared in front me and stared.I stared back at him and mouth the word sorry.He leaned down and whispered "You embarrassed me Izzati" into my ears.
He backed away from me and gazed at me sympathically.He shook his head and walked away.My tears betrayed me and I wiped them off.I turned and ran towards the changing room.Suddenly everything went black and fell to the ground.Then I woke up...
THE END :)
P.s. I had this dream a few days/weeks ago and decided to write it cause it was sorta hillarious but also sad cause Lee Chong Wei betrayed me!!!Grrrr....

An Extract From My Book.
Here's an extract of my current novel-which still does not have a title-hope you guys like it:
DANIEL:My eyes searched restlessly for any signs of movement.I raised my nose towards the heavens and sniffed the air.My nose twitched as it embraced the familiar scent of her.She is here,I know she is.I followed her scent,carefully hiding in the shadows.Then,I saw her.
Her naked skin shimmered under the inky,black sky.Her hair swept over her face like a black curtain.She seemed to glow with perfection and everything else was beyond imperfection.I walked gently on the ground,making no sound as I moved.I stood a foot away from her and stared in curiosity.How could this angel sent down from heaven be cursed with this destiny?
The slight change of emotion altered a strange sensation up my spine.Heat engulfed my body and pain shot up and down my body.I gasped in fright as the heat burned my chest.Then,I was shaking.My body shook with such force it made the angel jumped.
ELENA:I jumped in shock as the demon howled in pain.I stared down at it in shock,its body shaking unexpectedly.It was morphing!Sparks flew from every inch of its body.The demon threw back its head and moaned in pain.Suddenly,he burst!
His paws disappeared and a strong,muscular hand appeared.His back legs disappeared,replaced by a pair of masculine legs.His body shook and the furs evaporated and a man gasping for air lay on the ground.Sweat trickled down his cheek and he shuddered.I stood motionless and gasped.I crawled down on the ground next to the boy and lifted his head up.
"Daniel?"I asked.
I bent down to his face and looked into his eyes.His eyes blinked back,still lost in another dimension.I gasped and wrapped my hands around him,pulling him onto me.He shuddered again and coughed.I pulled my jacket and scarf off me and wrapped it around him,hugging him tightly to me once more.
DANIEL:Her warmth spread quickly to my body.Her touch sent sparks all over me and I shuddered again,but not from the cold.I didn't look at her,afraid of what I might see.We stood like that for a moment and then,I flinched.I looked up and stared into the darkness.
"Whats wrong?"She asked,her breath tickled my neck.
I stared into the shadows,my eyebrows embracing.Then,I froze.I pushed Elena behind me and growled.
"Daniel what's wrong?"Her voice quivered with fear as she spoke.
He stayed silent and waited.Then,something moved in the dark.Elena gasped and grabbed my arm.
"Daniel?!"
"Shh!It's okay Elena.I'm here."
"What's going on Daniel?"
I didn't reply,afraid of the truth.I should morph back,I thought.I tried summoning my energy but I was tired and my body ached in pain.I sighed in frustration and gritted my teeth.Suddenly,in the darkness a large wolf the size of a lion appeared.
Moonlight bathe over its features as it came out of the darkness.Its fur was the colour of night,its yellow eyes shone like diamonds in the dark and its claws as big as knives,clenched the bare ground.It bared its sharp teeth at us,its eyes locked on Elena.I growled in warning and the wolf froze,its eyes drowned in mine.
ELENA:I looked at Daniel and the wolf and back again.A moment of silence passed over them.It was like they were exchanging a message in a secret language I couldn't understand.Their eyes piercing into each other and I was afraid something bad was going to happen.The wolf glared at Daniel and turned its head towards me.I felt cold as ice as its eyes met mine.The wolf bared its teeth at me and turned away.The darkness engulfed the wolf and everything was quiet.
DANIEL:What should I say to her?The truth?The lies?I doubt she'll take me seriously after all she has seen.She'll probably act sympathetically towards me and the moment I'm away from her,she'll call the police on me.I bit my lips and tried making up a simple and sane excuse.
"Daniel?"
I froze as she called out my name.My stomach did a couple of embarrassing somersaults and I cursed myself for having any feelings towards her.I breathed in deeply through my mouth and turned to face her.
ELENA:I stared into Daniel's emerald green eyes.I was speechless like always.What just happened?Would he tell me the truth or would he avoid the subject?I hoped not,I would really like to hear something truthful from him.
DANIEL:A moment of silence passed over us and I couldn't help but stared back at her beautiful face.The next thing I knew,my mouth was on hers and we was kissing.
ELENA:His lips was soft on mine and I felt strangely warm.His arms wrapped around me and I surprised myself by wrapping my hands around his neck.I ran my fingers through his hair and then I froze.What the hell is going on?!This isn't how it's supposed to be!We just survived a traumatic event and now we're kissing!What the bloody hell is going on?!I pushed him away from me and punched him in the face.

The Future Is Magic.
I had the most beautiful dream ever a couple of days ago.I dreamed that I was an adult teaching this little child how to play the piano.When she finished playing,she hugged me and said: "I love you umi(which means mum in Arabic)".
Strangely enough,I could never remember the child's name nor her face.Could this be my future child or was it just my imagination?
I hope its real cause I would love to hear those words from my own child.
