17 Kapitel Laufend The town of Nooran was unlike any place Zayn had ever seen. It stood still in time, untouched by the rush of modern life. The air carried the soft hum of the call to prayer, weaving through the streets like a quiet whisper of faith.
Sunlight bathed the town in a golden glow, reflecting off the intricate blue-tiled mosaics that adorned the grand Persian-Islamic buildings. The domes of the mosques shimmered under the sky, their towering minarets standing like silent guardians of something greater.
The streets were lined with old stone pathways, shaded by date palms swaying gently in the warm breeze. Markets buzzed with life, the scent of saffron, fresh bread, and rosewater filling the air as merchants called out their wares. Yet, despite the movement, there was a stillness to this place-a serenity that wrapped around Zayn like a long-lost embrace.
It was here, in this quiet town forgotten by time, that he met her.
A woman with steady steps, a voice that carried wisdom, and eyes that held a light he didn't yet understand.
Nooran was not just a place. It was a feeling-a gentle invitation to slow down, to listen, to rediscover.
And perhaps, for the first time in years, Zayn was ready to accept it.
