❝ I pass by these walls, the walls of Layla
And I kiss this wall and that wall.
It's not love of the walls that has enraptured my heart, But of the one who dwells within. ❞

Layla Hayat wasn't allowed to fall for any one. She was to be married off to whoever her father chose for her. She didn't plan on breaking her promise, especially not for someone as arrogant as Qais Malik.

But as it turns out, Qais is not just a rich brat. He is a poet, a sufi at heart and so much more than he lets on and she realises she never had a chance but to fall in love.

Their love is willing to endure all prejudices and heartbreak but will it be able to transcend the seperation of their motherland into two different countries?

A Laila-Majnu retelling.
