An image of Achut with her sister Anguet.

Our childhood is what echoes in my mind to remember you.

Our silliness sneaking out the house to go for walks,

visit neighbours and babysit their children.

Laughter,

I remember you laughing so hard to the point of trying not to pee,

sometimes peeing a little.

Your funny observations made my day,

your love of children and caring nature mesmerized me.

I remember summer school with you

- the best/last quality months I spent with you

battling Khartoum | خرطوم heat and moasalat | مواصلات | transport.

I remember our nerdy ideas and inventions

-that time we discovered randok (Arabic backwards)

to communicate in order to point out funny observations.

Our strange fights; the silent treatment we gave each other was unbearable.for me

-you were my best friend, the only sensitive soul my spirit found comfort in.

Your soul will forever live within me.

My best friend,

Anguet
