Re: Which character was your favorite?
I also found it odd that she first decided to get on the plane without Waleed when the whole trip was for him, and her whole life was around her son. Luckily, she changed her mind about it.VioletMask wrote:My favorite character was Elias. Regardless of his not so realistic story, he has his morals, sticks to them and keeps his promise. Nadia's strong character was attractive but she shouldn't have reported the ex when he had so much control over her plans. Not to mention that I really didn't like how she first decided to get on the plane without Waleed.

Well, I also consider Elias as an interesting character. Not all men are lovers of music from lady singers but he is the opposite of these men who do not give value to lady singers.VioletMask wrote:My favorite character was Elias.

I agree his actions were noble with Malika and he got Brownie points from me for that.juliusotinyo wrote:Elias evoked alot of childhood emotions on me, growing up in a popular tourist spot in East Africa. I believe his actions were quite noble with Malika, few clients if any, would do what he did even after knowing her age.

Yaser and Nadia have things in common though.AliceofX wrote:At first, I liked Yaser the best, but he soon became annoying with his endless complaining. After that Nadia became my favorite. Her story had real tension and drama to it.
