That night, as she sat at the dinner table with her family, Mihret realized that things would never be the same again. Her father's absence loomed over them, and they all felt the weight of his absence. But they were determined to stay strong and support each other through this difficult time.
Weeks turned into months, and Mihret's father remained in hiding. She missed him terribly and longed for his return. But she knew that he was doing what he had to do to protect their family and their community.
