A Woman Who Struggles

"When a woman is used to getting hurt, she won't know what to do when someone starts to truly appreciate her. So, she pushes him away."

"Sir... Please, if you could spare some change..." I begged the man in a suit. He stared ahead, unfaltering. He kept moving. He kept avoiding-because that was the nature of a billionaire.

This story wasn't born from pure imagination. It was born from a competition.
An opportunity that lit a match in the depths of my creative despair and gave this story a pulse.
That spark brought to life the tale of a girl-discarded, mistreated, and silenced-whose only crime was being vulnerable in a world ruled by powerful men.

Though fictional, this story draws strength from truths many women carry quietly. It reflects selfless love, the ache of abandonment, and the cycle of being hurt so often that you forget what care even looks like.

This book is not just a narrative. It's a wound that found words.

A Woman Who Struggled contains themes of past abuse, psychological trauma, and emotional violence. If any of this feels too heavy or triggering, I ask that you proceed with caution-or not at all.

This story was once titled The Anecdote of the Abandoned Girl. But as the words took shape, the girl became more than her abandonment. She became a woman. One who struggled, yes-but one who also endured.
