The first thing Leila noticed was that Daniel stopped asking how her day was. It didn’t happen overnight.

Letters Between the Lines. AI-Generated.
In a dusty corner of the Oakbridge University library, nestled between the aisles of forgotten literature and fading journals, Elara found her favorite escape.

Sacrifice
In a dark room, the ticking of a sewing machine echoed. A mother with a bent back, tired hands, and weak eyes was stitching her son's school uniform. The electric light in the room was dim, but in her heart, the hope for her son's bright future shone brightly.
