Even his dreams offer no respite. In them, he is still trapped, still accused, still burdened by the weight of his aunt’s lies. He dreams of escape, of freedom, but the visions always dissolve into nightmares, where the walls close in around him, and his aunt’s voice becomes a deafening roar. Muzammil wakes in a cold sweat, his chest heaving, his heart pounding. The line between dreams and reality blurs, and for a moment, he wonders if he will ever truly be free. But as the first rays of dawn filter through his window, he steels himself for another day of torment, determined to endure, no matter the cost.

The world outside the house seems to mock him, its beauty a cruel reminder of the life he has been denied. Muzammil watches from the window as children run and laugh, their joy a stark contrast to his sorrow. He longs to be among them, to feel the warmth of the sun on his face, the freedom of a life unburdened by cruelty. But the chains of his reality hold him back, their grip unyielding. The window becomes both a portal to hope and a mirror of his despair, reflecting a world that feels forever out of reach.
