The Journey Alone

by N. Ammatullah Hussain

Hidaya has big dreams for when the war is over. Right now though, it is up to her and her brother, Hamid, to look out for the rest of their siblings after they must say goodbye to their parents. Arriving in the UK as refugees, they face an unknown culture and new routines as they settle into their new lives with their foster parents. But will this be the last time they have to move?
