It was shortly after breakfast time and the children were just finishing their karak tea . While debating who should get the ps4 controller, mom stated that it would be neither of them and they were ordered to go to the beach as a family, views of white sand surrounded by water. palm trees were scattered, and in the distance , the baby-blue sky merged with the the blue water. It was an unusual day for the Al Falasi family as clouds enveloped the sky’s and the temperature was cooler than usual. A gentle breeze brushed through the beach was a cool hairdryer blowing agents thier rosy cheeks.
''It’s all your fault!'' Shouted Quasim
while crossing his arms. ''Catch! Got 'ya!'' Replied Mona ignoring her twin brother usual grumpy mood. Giggling, screaming and lots of tagging went on and Quasim quickly forgot about the ps4 controller. Fifteen minutes passed and the children laid panting on the soft sand. In the distance, beautiful waves of bright blue was covering the big island and piles of used plastic bags destroyed the picture
view of the beautiful beach. '' what do people do to our environment?!'' What on earth has happened ?!'' Stated Mona as she slared socked gazing into the horizon.

After hours of intensely debating the topic of the trash in the beach, the twins came up with a master plan.
Eventually, they agreed that Mona would be the researcher and Quasim
would be the 'Maker'. Together they got a caravan to watch into the beach to analyze what was happening so deep into the ocean. It wasn’t long until they got their answers. I know just what happened here!'' Stated Mona excitedly but angered , '' I have a plan to save the beach?'' Quasim as if he was Superman
A few weeks passed and Mona and Quasim had been working incredibly hard. Signs were made and put into the entrance to the beaches all across the U.A.E , they had started an Instagram named @savethebeach and they had spoke to the local newspapers to help people looking after the environmental. Exhausted but really enjoying their challenge, the twins spoke confidently to everyone and it was a big surprise what happened next … their school told the local news , the local news told the national news and as soon as they knew it the sheikh contacted them! After not much time and many meetings, sheikh built an industry and supported the children in many ways:
.promote and raise awareness of the importance of saving the beach.
. insert waste bins across different land.
. set up charities to help littered areas.

After days or maybe months hard work the kids had made their entire family proud . Over time the unlitered beach became more natural and clean ( just how they wanted it to be.) One winter night they were sharing foga and a desert of unmak Ali and sitting around a campfire roasting marshmallows. While honoring their hard work and dedication. In the distance they saw splashes and they realized there were dolphins jumping out of the water. They all gathered and around and Mona and Qausim said “,we did it … What’s the next journey?”
