A decorated war hero over 10 years ago. Now he is stuck living like many other vets around him... Homeless, without a job and sleeping on the streets. But he lives his life with a little twist, when he was no more than eight years old his father told him a tale. A tale about helping others dreams come true.
This story is based on a writing prompt I found. It was supposed to be a short one-shot type thing but I ended up writing more than planed.
There is some swearing in this, and some of the stories are quite sad. More like all of them are.

Taqdeer
Their love story was not just a tale of passion, but a saga that defied the very laws of time and fate. It was said that true love never dies, that it is eternal and divine, but there are rare love stories that transcend the ordinary and carve their mark into the annals of history. Their love was one such story-beautiful yet unpredictable, wholesome yet dangerous. It spoke of a bond so deep, so unyielding, that even the Gods would tremble before it. This was the love story of the God of Death and his Broken Angel.

As long as I'm with her, nothing else matters. -------------------------------------------------------- After all he had known was anger and hatred she was like a breath of fresh air to him. With just one look into her mesmerizing chocolate eyes and one listen to her angelic voice he knew he was ruined. He despised this feeling. He felt helpless.
