One day, as he was sipping his tea, his phone beeped. It was a message from Lina. She wanted to keep in touch and so began their conversations. They shared stories about their lives, dreams, and aspirations, and their friendship began to bloom.

As time went on, their conversations took a passionate turn. However, amidst the excitement, there were some alarming signs. Lina once mentioned tracking her ex-boyfriend's phone and having a listening device in her flat. Hamza's curiosity turned into concern, making him question the truth behind these words. One evening, as Hamza and Lina were talking, Lina's voice trembled. She took a deep breath and confessed something bewildering. "Hamza, I must tell you the truth," she said with a heavy heart. "I haven't been completely honest with you. I am not 28 years old as I claimed, but 36. I lied about my job, my university, my degree, and even my name isn't Lina."

Hamza's heart sank, and confusion filled his mind. He couldn't understand why Lina had lied to him about so many things. Lina explained that her deceit was born out of the strict norms of her Saudi Muslim family and the need to protect her true identity. She felt trapped and misunderstood, hoping that by pretending to be someone else, she could find solace and true connection with someone from a different world. Struggling to process this sudden revelation, Hamza decided it was best to distance himself from Lina. He felt overwhelmed by the weight of her secrets, questioning the authenticity of their friendship. But Lina, desperate for one last conversation, pleaded with Hamza to listen.
