Scary Night

So i guess my so called good day on Sat was not complete after all!!
at 2:30 am of Saturday night..or Sunday morning...somebody threw a rock into our bedroom window and broke it...the rock landed on the other side of the bed and alhamdulilah no one was hurt. I was sleeping alone on the bed...Ammar was up late reading in the computer room, and zaido alhamdulilah did not feel anything.
So as i said i was sleeping alone in the bedroom and i can not describe the terror of that night. I woke up screaming like crazy...the sound of the crashing glass was So freeky...and subhanallah..I've been hanging this blanket on the window because those window blinds has been falling off and i just did not feel save..because if the light is on, people can see us from the window...so subhannallah if this blanket was not there, the broken glasses would of been all over me.
The problem started shortly after we moved into this house. We noticed that there is those bunch of teenage boys who always come and sit outside the entrance of our complex. They come very late at night and eat, drink, and talk very loud at 12am and sometimes later. One time i actually saw them selling drugs and stuff. They even jump over the entrance door and just come inside our complex! So ammar and i have been calling the cops every time we see them...it is very annoying because we can hear and see everything from our bedroom window...and the police do come..but those boys manage to run away most of the time...or the cops do catch them but they can't find anything with them. It is SO frustrating.
So basically that night they boys were outside..and Ammar as usual called the cops on them...and they ran away...BUT the thing is those boys now know that we are the ones who have been calling the cops on them. HOW? well because they have seen ME and AMMAR watching them from the window. It is getting SO scary...apparently one of the boys have got sick of us and wanted to scare us...so he decided to throw this rock...
I was freaking out that night..Ammar and I could not sleep, We could not even go inside our bedroom again. We wanted to go downstairs to make sure that the window and the door are all locked...we both were shaking. Every time we hear a small sound we both jump...the police came but they said that they can't do anything because no one saw who throw the rock...!!

But we could not sleep..there was no way!!what if they came back...what if they are watching us..what if .......
all what we can do is pray and pray...ammar and i were holding each other tight..we were breathing so hard...our hearts were beating So fast..wallahi it was the most scary thing ever...just sitting there in the computer room and not knowing what next is going to happen....I've told ammar before that those kids know it's us.....and that they will do something to us..it is just about time. And now it's happening ya Allah..
in the middle of the night..Ammar send a message to the Mayor and told him ..this is what happen to us and if you want to come visit we will be at home...
and surprisingly, at 9:30am..the Mayor was knocking at our door!!! He said that he was on his way to church but when he read the e mail...he told his wife to go and that he will catch them later but he had to see us first!!! He did not just show off...he actually called the chief of police and told him to come right away!!! I mean 3an jad....at that moment i felt a little bet better...they did some stuff..
not only that..i mean the Mayer came back at 4pm with another police and they took picture and stuff. The Mayor told us that the police talked to one of the boys who lives in our complex....he gave him a real talk and that they are basically watching him....so he better be careful!
Any way...we spend the night at my Brother's -in law's house the other night...we talked to all the neighbors about it....we are going to meet with the home association tomorrow..the Mayor will show up too with the police....
There are so many things is happening now.....and I'm tired of writing....but the most important thing is that we are going to put a camera on our window...
any way....Alhamdulilah that we are all fine and no one was hurt.
I'm writing this while I'm in school.....its good that I'm out ...when one the neighbors heard about what happened to us, she came that morning and asked me..r u ok and stuff ..she told me if i was scare one day or if i was alone to just call her ..she told me call and I'll come ..or u can come and spend the time with her....when she wanted to leave ..she hugged me and cried!! alhamdulilah ..we really have a good neighbors...as ammar said to me....its sad that a tragedy had to happen to meet our neighbors!
i have to go pray now, eat cus I'm so hungry..and then head for my second class....

plz plz pray for us....i'm really scared

    Lobna what is this? I'm so worried about you habibty insha'Allah everything will go well, don't let those punks get to you. Allah yehmekun min kul shar. I'll call you as soon as I'm done with class today, and maybe I'll stop by on my way home. Alhamdulillah the mayor was really helpful, hopefully they can catch those losers.

    What the...why is someone asking the street name??

    Anyway Lobna, you are in our prayers inshallah. Allah ye7meekon! Alhamdulillah no one was hurt. Would you guys also consider putting up an alarm system in the house? That might make you feel safer at night.

    Keep us updated on how you're doing.
