My loyalty is with my country, and my life is dedicated to ensuring the youth are given the chance to have a bright future. Not easily done in Tabiq.
I could’ve taken a different path, but I choose to be the School Administrator for a reason. The students needed to be exposed to the outside world, so they too could one day spread their wings and follow their dreams. Not a priority for most in Tabiq. But I wanted to change that.
What I wasn’t expecting was to be pulled from suddenly pulled from my position and then told I need to train my replacement who was coming from another country.
Raya Davison might have the qualifications on paper, but this job requires more than just a master's degree. And if she thought she could just walk in and on day one, start doing things her own way, she was mistaken. I wasn’t going anywhere until I knew the students were in good hands.
I set the bar high, and Raya needed to prove that she was as passionate about their education as I was. There was just one problem, any time I was around her, an entirely different kind of passion sparked, and there was no denying the chemistry
between us.
But as thing began to heat up, and finally we were on the same page, her ex decided to contact her. She said she needed to return home to the United States to settle a few things.
I told her that the school needed her. The truth was, I needed her just as much. But was love enough to get her to come back or has she gone home for good?
