Araba

Original date: December 24th, 2024

Once upon a time, there lived a large mansion in a town where everyone knew each other.

Within this mansion lie hidden secrets that only a single individual knows about.

However, he has a dark past surrounding his parents’ criminal past.

By the time he came of age, he found a headscarf and a dress worn by the dancers and women in his area, where there are Arabic and Swahili speakers.

Upon wearing the outfit, he did a pose and started calling himself “Araba”.

While in the village, Araba opened a shop in the bazaar, where he started selling spices, magic carpets and dresses at a cheap price, and after he sold all his products, he decided to use all that money to help other people in need, before he went to do other things.

One day, Araba saw Hiram and Yousra carrying a basket containing their harvested crops, and asked them if he could help them out, in which they allowed him to do so.

Later, he made a name for himself in their village and became well-respected among the local villagers, and whenever he wasn’t selling, he would spend most of his time either painting or helping people.

However, there was one problem in the village, and it turned out to be none other than Chido.

Chido was the son of the head priest, who Hiram got his revenge on several years ago for taking advantage of younger women.

He was no better than his dad, as he often gets into accidents, go partying, drinking and taking drugs, not to mention, engaging in risky behavior for attention, that people avoided him everywhere he went.

That is, until a villager informed Araba, Hiram and Yousra about Chido’s wedding.

Upon finding out that he summoned the entire village, they all went to his wedding.

On the day of the wedding, everyone saw Sania, the bride, without her face covering, all in shock, until Arslan, one of the villagers chosen by the groom to present them, walked in to speak out for them.

He then revealed the gruesome details of the history between the couple, including the fact that the bride had a vendetta against Araba and her soon-to-be husband Chido, to the point the entire wedding got cancelled after the latter found out that she was cheating on him with another guy.

Afterwards, everything went well for Araba, until the day his entire village got annihilated by a cyclone and a fire the following night, that everybody from that village was exiled to other places at Sunset Beach.

However, Araba was nowhere to be found after the village was rebuilt several years later.

By then, everybody but their descendants as well as Hiram and Yousra, had all disappeared.

But still, despite finding out about Araba’s disappearance, Hiram and Yousra remained determined to find him no matter what.

And so, they started a group called “Araba Search Party”.

Now as the Araba Search Party, Hiram and Yousra set out for Araba’s parents’ house, which was now home to a school.

There, they saw the new owners, who had known Araba’s parents for a long time.

They asked them about Araba’s whereabouts, and they told them that they had no idea who he was until Yousra told them everything about him.

Soon, they got interested in his case and joined the Araba Search Party.

Several days passed, and still, the group hadn’t found any traces of Araba.

While in exile on a small island, Araba started searching for things, when he stumbled upon an unused diary and a quill along with its inkwell.

He then soon used it as his diary while drawing every single day for several weeks until the day he was found by Arslan and his two friends Hiram and Yousra.

Turns out, the main reason why Araba was exiled to the island was because of Chido’s ex-fiancée.

Arslan told Araba to join him, Hiram and Yousra to get their revenge on her for trying to ruin Chido’s life, back in the village, and to his surprise, Araba agreed to take part in Arslan’s revenge.

Upon their return to the village, they saw Chido being abused by Sania, to the point Araba stepped into Chido’s defense and told her to stop abusing him.

Nearly everyone came to his defense that this enraged Sania to the point she summoned a large pair of scissors and challenged everyone to a fight.

However, she was easily overwhelmed by Chido and Araba, who knocked her down to the ground.

After the fight, Sania started to throw insults towards nearly everyone in the village, before leaving the scene.

A few weeks later, Chido thanked everyone for saving him from her and changed himself for the better.

Soon, they forgave him, and not long after, Chido became friends with Araba, Hiram, Yousra.

On the other hand, Sania was later executed for her infidelity and bringing dishonor to the village as well as her harassment and defamation of others.

In the end, Araba thanked everyone for being on his side before he left off to wander across different lands, only to be never seen again.

Several years later, the village was now named Araba, after his nickname, and since then, his story has been passed on from generation to generation, even to this day.
