Based on 1970s Pakistani Punjabi x Indian Punjabi Qudrat has spent her life being looked through. As the eldest daughter, she learned early that love comes with conditions, silence comes with praise, and responsibility never asks if you're tired. She carries a house that is not gentle, memories that are not kind, and expectations that were never meant for someone her age. She is not allowed to choose herself. Not in a world where duty comes first. Not in a world where girls are taught to endure, not dream. Then there's the boy with green eyes. Zahir knows what fire takes. He watched it steal his parents, burn his past, and leave him standing in the smoke with nothing but survival in his hands. He does not believe in safe things. He does not believe in staying. And yet, somehow, he stays when he looks at her. He sees Qudrat - not the responsibility, not the role, not the silence she perfected - but the girl underneath it all. And he doesn't look away. What happens when love asks for more than you're allowed to give? When choosing yourself feels like betrayal? When a boy who escaped one fire walks willingly into another? This is a story about duty versus desire. About girls who are raised like anchors. About boys who are made of ashes and hope. About love that does not arrive gently - but still feels like home. Some fires destroy. Some teach you how to burn without disappearing. - - - - - - - - - - - -
