Evelyn Saploat has watched her older sister and mother complete countlessly at their annual Saploat Family Reunion against a web of cousins, aunts and uncles, plus a few cranky grandparents. Now, she finally gets a chance. But this year, the Saploat's competition craft is crochet. Throughout all her years at working at the family business, Evelyn has never bothered to learn any string related crafts; it was all too tangled for her. Now, trapped in her own string of lies and too embarrassed to tell her family, she pretends to know all there is to know. Then, Evelyn is struck with luck. She meets Duncan Hodlings, a quirky new customer. It turns out that Duncan has spent most of his life crocheting, knitting, embroidering, stitching, and performing every other string art out there. He agrees to teach Evelyn in time for her reunion, but Evelyn needs A LOT of help.
Maybe, just maybe, from the grace of the string gods and blessings of the loop saints, Evelyn can possibly crochet.

Captive{ated}
"First you captivated me... then you held me captive." Evelyn was like most college-aged girls working a part-time job when she met Caleb, who came in to her life when she wanted him least but needed him most. He captivated her. By the end of summer, she had fallen in love with him. It was then that he wanted her to meet his parents. And that's when everything changed. Caleb was not the man Evelyn thought he was. He came from a secluded village that did things much differently from the rest of society. Isolated in one of the most sparsely populated areas of the country, it was as if they live in their own little world. They were a traditional village for the most part, but there were some aspects that they did much differently than any other, especially in the ways of courtship. It didn't take long for Evelyn to realize one thing: once you were brought home to meet the parents, there was no escape.Complete
Tum Hi Aana | A Short Story
How differently could things have turned out after Waqas Ahmed had stormed into Khan Haveli and shown each and every member of the Khan's the mirror whilst clearing the smears of shame on Meerab's character? How differently could things have been for Meerab and Murtasim had their longing for one another after their cruel separation at Malik Zubair's and Haya's hands turned into something more fruitful? How differently could things have been if the writer of Tere Bin had been as extra, filmy and dramatic as yours truly? This four-shot begins from when Murtasim leaves Meerab in Karachi. Its what I believe was a heartbreakingly crucial point in the story. *Some mature content* Cover by my talented moonshine1_Complete
