"I Found an Old Phone in the Woods. It Still Had Battery—and Messages"
It was supposed to be just a short hike. I needed a break—from work, from the constant buzzing of notifications, from life. I left my phone in the car, zipped up my jacket, and followed the old trail behind my grandfather’s cabin. The path wasn’t marked, but he had shown it to me as a kid, and muscle memory took over.

"The Stranger Who Knew My Secret Before I Did"
I first saw him on a Tuesday, sitting at the far end of the park bench — the same one I always went to when I needed to think. The air was cold that day, unusually still. I remember because the trees weren’t rustling, and my thoughts were louder than ever.

"The Day I Disappeared Without Leaving a Trace"
I always thought “vanishing” was something that happened to other people—runaways on milk cartons, hikers swallowed by fog, names on missing‑person flyers that flutter at bus stops before anyone remembers to read them. Then one hazy September morning, I became one of them.

"That Night… I Never Told Anyone What Happened"
That night… I never told anyone what happened. Not because I didn’t want to, but because I knew no one would believe me. It was the summer of 2018, and the monsoon had just begun to wrap the city in its familiar dampness. I had returned to my hometown after five long years in Delhi. The reason? A wedding. My cousin Aarti was getting married, and the whole family had gathered in our ancestral home — a crumbling, three-storey haveli in the outskirts of Lucknow.

"I Fell, But I Didn't Break – A True Story of Resilience"
Life doesn’t send warnings before it flips your world upside down. I learned that the hard way. One day I was just another dream-filled teenager, the next I was gasping for hope, buried under the weight of loss, failure, and despair.

"Voices in the Silence"
The Echoes of Everything I Couldn't Say The room was quiet—too quiet. The kind of quiet that makes your thoughts echo like footsteps in an empty hall.

The Girl Who Stole Shadows
In Luminaris, a city drenched in artificial light, darkness was outlawed. Years ago, when the Great Eclipse left half the world in endless night, humanity built a salvation—giant solar domes powered by synthetic suns. Now, cities like Luminaris shimmered twenty-four hours a day. Shadows were considered dangerous—remnants of a time when fear walked freely and secrets thrived. So they banned them. Every corner lit. Every alley scanned. Every citizen watched.

"The Train Killer"
The year is 1996. The Karakoram Express cuts through the cold darkness between Lahore and Karachi. Onboard is a mix of ordinary passengers: families, soldiers, businessmen, and one man with a secret.

"Everyone Gave Up on Me—Until One Moment Changed Everything"
was 22 when life completely fell apart. A few months earlier, I had dreams. Not just casual ones—big, ambitious, sky-touching dreams. I wanted to become a graphic designer, open my own studio, support my family, and prove that I could be more than just "that quiet guy from a poor neighborhood." But life, as always, had its own script.

"Taking Inventory"
Marina stood in the center of her childhood bedroom, surrounded by boxes, dust, and memories. The air was thick with the scent of old wood and forgotten years. It had been five years since she last set foot in this room, and even longer since she’d truly seen it.

"The Poisoned Rose"
Leena never expected to fall in love at seventeen. Not in the way she did—not the kind that makes your chest ache and your world spin with a single glance. But when she met Ayaan, everything else faded.

Whispers of the desert wind
The sun bled gold across the endless sea of sand, casting long shadows over the dunes that rolled like waves frozen in time. The desert was ancient—older than any kingdom, older than the bones buried beneath it. And it whispered.
