The Firefly That Refused to Fade
Story: On the edge of a quiet village, nestled in tall blades of grass, lived a firefly unlike any other. His name was Lumo, and unlike most fireflies who blinked their lights for brief moments of courtship or instinct, Lumo carried a different fire—one not just in his abdomen, but deep within his soul.

world of the Day
There are things I want to write about, but I’m also holding back more than usual these days.

The Ones Who Never Learned to Numb
I’ve always admired people who can shut things off. The ones who can bury their emotions like they were never there. The ones who don't cry in public. The ones who can read the news and not flinch. The ones who can walk past a homeless man and not carry his story in their chest for the rest of the day.

In University:Behind Closed Doors
Behind Closed Doors It began like any normal semester. Students at a well-known University in Pakistan began attending their lectures as usual. Among them were students in the Computer Software Department, a place where students dream of launching tech careers, building apps, and writing code.

When I Said Allahu Akbar, Everything Changed
I used to be someone who lived only for the world. The sound of the azan never moved me. The name of Allah never slowed me down. I thought prayer was something for old men, for the weak-hearted, for people who had nothing better to do.

The Day He Never Came Home
It was a Tuesday morning in early March. Cold, grey, uneventful. My father, like every day, left home at 6:30 AM sharp. He worked as a delivery truck driver for a logistics company. Always on time. Always dependable. He had the same routine every morning — kiss mom on the forehead, grab his thermos, pat me on the back, and walk out the door with his signature “Let’s get this over with.”
