It wasn't just his words that broke her it was the trust he never had in her. Basma longed to belong, to be someone's "home," but destiny chose otherwise  she was meant to be no one's.

Raised under rough parenting, Basma's parents looked after her needs but never truly saw her. Love was there, but so was neglect  a kind that hurt more than absence. She grew up learning to smile through silence, to prove herself even when no one believed in her.

This is the journey of an Indian Muslim girl navigating the chaos of life  from being taken for granted at home to facing heartbreak, fading friendships, and a world too cruel to care. Step into her world, where every second is a battle against betrayal, expectations, and the weight of being misunderstood.

A story that captures the raw truth of a girl who fights quietly in a world that never truly listened.
