27th November 2010 – Doha, Qatar

"MIRROR, MIRROR on the wall, who is the worst of them all?"

"Not you, my sister."

Niyah Azar tied her mother's classy watch on her non – dominant wrist and admired her handsome twin brother Nayir through the reflection of her vanity mirror.

They have the same chocolate brown hair, hypnotic blue eyes and perfect skin that fit the bill. In his slick white blazer over dark blue pants and shirt, he matched his sister's marine blue mermaid gown, continuing the color compatible tradition on their birthdays.

They had a fuss in the morning to go for different styles. At the end of the day Niyah concluded the argument.

"This is much better than a classic black tuxedo." She complimented, waving her index finger up and down.

"Thank you. I did not want your mood sour today of all days and if I may ask why are you calling yourself worst?"

"It's a title I've been nicknamed then earned over the years. Today I'm turning legal for everything. It's the appropriate time to say it out loud to my gorgeous reflection," she bluntly stated and her brother tried not to laugh.

"You see Nayir, I am not afraid of being myself."

Niyah looped her hand around the crook of his arm, ready to step out of her safe haven which is her bedroom and faced the double sided world waiting for the birthday 'kids' downstairs.

"Beware of that one, she has a frozen heart."

When five year old Niyah Azar has replied 'ice cream' upon asked her favorite dessert in kindergarten, someone in the back of the class shouted ice queen hence begun the first day of bullying. Still, she managed to scare the kids off because her father Musa Azar was a lieutenant at that time.

Coming from one of the most prestigious family, Niyah Azar should have born with a golden spoon in her mouth. She should have been wearing brands to high school and drove the latest sports car.

None of the above happened as her father ditched them, the powerful owners of Azar Corporation that deals into the manufacturing of weapons including nanotech, nuclear and drones. He had discovered as much as the business is legal, they also deals illegally. They sold to anyone who gave them the best price.

Moving out to a foreign land, he married a middle class woman by the name of Noorie and gave birth to four children; the twins Niyah and Nayir; Myra, Zaynoul.

Niyah grew up as a resentful and reserved person becoming the opposite of her twin brother.

While Nayir stood out as the perfect child, she caved in as a cold person against the bullies and everyone else. She hated the fact that they led a wealthy lifestyle while her family maintained everything on a budget. If only her father had not left, she would have the world at her fingertips.
