The Monsoon Lullaby. AI-Generated.
Late one monsoon evening in a quiet village on the outskirts of Dhaka, a young teacher named Leila made her way home through winding mud lanes. The rain had eased, leaving the air thick with the scent of wet earth and jasmine. As she passed the old banyan tree that marked the turn toward her house, she heard the faintest melody drifting on the breeze—a lullaby, sung in a child’s voice.

What would it be like if you saw someone else lying next to you in your sleep in the middle of the night?
When I got the new job, no one was happy. My mother said, “Don’t do this job, it’s not good to play with people’s deaths.” The people in the neighborhood laughed, and some whispered behind my back, “This boy has become a dom!”

Whispering Pines
Part 1: The Arrival There were seven of us—friends since college—craving adventure and escape from the noise of our busy lives. The mountains were calling, and we answered, planning a full week in the wilderness. We packed tents, food, torches, and spirits high with excitement. The first two days were pure bliss: laughter by the bonfire, warm cups of tea, and storytelling under a sky full of stars.

As I Walk Through the Shadows
WELCOME! I am truly grateful for all of my readers. You help me to heal through this journey. THANK YOU ALL! The mob knocks—not just at the door, but inside the mind. As I Walk Through the Shadows fragments the line between memory and distortion, survival and control. This entry captures the coded language of initiation—“orphans,” “misfits,” “ROCA baby”—shaped by an unspoken system, tested by chaos. Glitches in the feed mirror fractures in thought. The pressure isn’t outside anymore; it’s crawling under the skin. As the protagonist confronts identity, authority, and the erasure of clarity, questions begin to echo: Who attacked? Who thinks? Who watches? Each line pulses like static from a corrupted screen, revealing flashes of pain, reflection, and resistance. This isn’t a cry for help—it’s a coded transmission. And only those who can read between the static will understand the weight behind the silence.

The Jinn Who Waited Beneath My Bed for Years
I was twelve when we moved into my grandfather’s crumbling mansion on the outskirts of a forgotten village. The house, older than memory, breathed with secrets. The locals called it Bayt Al-Ghaib — “The House of the Unseen.”
