That was a very sad contribution indeed... only those can understand the hidden pain (thats more to see than to read in here) who have lost a precious gem from their already plundered treasure. Keep ur hopes up Ayesha :)

Interesting read, though her life sounds like a desolate, melancholy existence.

Re: # 1 Faiqah, you are right, only those who have suffered a loss can understand the pain. You have to let go pain… otherwise it becomes a sore wound.

Re: # 2Thank you for appreciating the effort. That’s true the protagonist is grieving and alone; or has the feeling of loneliness. The feeling of loneliness is worst than actually being alone.

Re: # 5 It may sound cliche but then I would say time is the biggest healer so let the time play its role.
