𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗱 AZLAAN HUSSAIN AARIZ - A 12th-grade student from Karachi, Pakistan, born into wealth and privilege. Son of a rich politician, Azlaan's life is filled with riches, wealth, and expectations he never asked for. His father wants him to inherit wealth, power, and influence, even though Azlaan has no interest in it. Surrounded by riches but ignored emotionally, he learns early that wealth cannot protect you from pain. AMRIT SINGHANIA - An 8th-grade student from Punjab, India, raised in a home full of love and warmth. Sweet, calm, and gentle, Amrit has a heart that heals quietly. She notices the little things, listens when others don't, and makes people feel safe just by being herself-the soft calm to Azlaan's chaos. An unexpected online friendship bridges two very different worlds. Through late-night messages and quiet understanding, Azlaan finds comfort, and Amrit becomes his safe place. A story of healing, connection, and the people who stay. They stayed. ✨
