She still had her parents and her big brother she still had her home. She had a normal teenager’s life. Now Salama volunteers at a hospital in Homs helping the wounded who flood through the doors daily. Secretly though she is desperate to find a way out of her beloved country before her sister-in-law Layla gives birth. So desperate that she has manifested a physical embodiment of her fear in the form of her imagined companion Khawf who haunts her every move in an effort to keep her safe. But even with Khawf pressing her to leave Salama is torn between her loyalty to her country and her conviction to survive. Salama must contend with bullets and bombs military assaults and her shifting sense of morality before she might finally breathe free. And when she crosses paths with the boy she was supposed to meet one fateful day she starts to doubt her resolve in leaving home at all. Soon Salama must learn to see the events around her for what they truly are—not a war but a revolution—and decide how she too will cry for Syria’s freedom.
