Hi, everyone.
I wanted to start today's chapter with something personal. Right now, I'm having a really hard time — emotionally, mentally — and honestly, I broke down while trying to process the devastating things happening in our country.

Because of this, I wasn't in the right state of mind to write today's chapter. But thankfully, my sister had already written this part, and she stepped in to help me out. It's her first time writing, so please shower her with love. I truly hope you all enjoy today's update, even if it came from a place of pain.

I don't want to sound preachy, but please, please be careful.

Given the current situation in our country — the horrifying reality we're waking up to every day — I urge you all to carry something for your protection. It can be anything:

A small knife

Pepper spray

An umbrella

Or anything that can be used to defend yourself in a moment of danger.

No woman should ever have to think like this. But here we are.

My heart goes out to the beautiful soul of the doctor who was raped and murdered.
May she rest in peace.
She deserved safety. She deserved life. She deserved so much more than this.

And yes... we say "Not all men," but it's always a man.
That's why we joke, cry, and scream that we'd rather trust a bear than a man — because being eaten feels less horrifying than being violated. And if you felt that in your bones, you're not alone.

I know this note has been heavy, and I know it's not easy to read.
But if I keep going, I'll cry again, and my family will worry.

So I'm closing this here.
Take care of yourselves. Be alert. Be safe.
And please — take this seriously.

There was something unsettling about the air this morning.

I couldn't quite place it.
A strange discomfort sat heavy in my chest — like a knot that refused to untangle. An uneasy gut feeling, a tightness behind my ribs.

And trust me, I'm not the type to randomly panic. I like things logical, practical, explainable. But right now... something just felt off.

Everyone at home was safe. My parents were asleep, my sister was back at college, Rayan was probably snoring like a whale... So why the hell did it feel like something was wrong?
