"To hear, one must be silent."
The Power of the tongue and intelligence of a human being is what makes them different from God's other creations. It is what makes them powerful, it is what makes the human being rule every other creation. But they forget to listen and that is what will lead them to their doom
------------------------
Ayah Beizeen is a sixteen-year-old village girl with a peaceful and content life. She has loving parents, a supportive elder brother and an adorable younger brother.
But she is different: Ayah was born mute. She didn't cry when she was delivered and hasn't uttered a word ever since. Sometimes, she wishes she could - she was envious of everyone who could convey their emotions through words, for she has no other option but to keep them bottled up inside her.
However, Ayah Beizeen has a special friend from the age of five, when she was found on her terrace staring at the Moon. She talks to the Moon and it listens. Talking to the Moon is the only way, Ayah knows, to share her feelings.
One night, the Moon comes with strange tidings - it says that everything that she knew about her life is going to change. She has somehow stumbled upon a strange path and the destination is uncertain. It all depends on the choices she makes.
A tale of love, heartbreak, dreams, failures but above all - redemption. Follow Ayah's journey as she surpasses all odds. Is she the 'living miracle' that the Voice of the Moon claims her to be?

Muraad~e~Siya
~ A story as a Poetry itself ~ MURAAD SIDDIQUI "He never touched the flame. He simply waited for it to burn its way to him." Born into power, raised in shadows, Muraad Siddiqui was promised a bride before he could even tie his shoelaces - a girl he'd never met, but whose name sounded like poetry: Siya. While the world handed him legacy, influence, and control, he built a life around the only thing he never chose but always wanted. By the time she stepped into his haveli, still a child in uniform, he had already crafted a world where she was the centre. But love like his is not tender. It's sharp. Unvoiced. Unholy. Because how do you love someone who sees you as a stranger, when you've lived every breath for them? He stays close-but silent. Present-but untouchable. Not because he can't confess. But because what he feels could undo her entire world. SIYA RAGHUVANSHI "She was signed away with a pen. And now she lives in a palace she never asked for, but still always dreamed of-with a man whose eyes know too much." All Siya wanted was to study literature, hide behind her books, and lose herself in fictional darkness. But instead, she was unknowingly married off at fifteen - not out of love, but a centuries-old debt of honour. Now, she lives in Siya Mahel, a haunting haveli, filled with whispers, strange rituals, and one devastatingly silent man who keeps rubbing her feet every night as she falls asleep. She doesn't know what binds them. She doesn't understand why he flinches every time she asks him questions. Or why his gaze is both a prayer and a punishment. All she knows is that her life isn't hers anymore... And the one man who seems to care, is the one she fears the most. ~ One haveli. Two families tied by silence. Seven sacred stages of love. And a birth from shadows. Love is a blessing. But what if it's also a sentence you can't escape. This isn't a story. It's a rebellion sealed in sindoor and blood. ~~

Talat
"Ayesha Madam! I want you to write my story in this. My hafiz-ji gave this to me." I smiled breezily, relishing my victory of finally hearing her speak. "I will, Talat. I will." As I held the frayed old diary, I could see a saga chiseled on its grimy brown cover, as if it was a witness, a faithful friend, an unfailing narrator. On the first page, it was written in Urdu- "You are gifted, my child. With his blessings, insha'allah you will go a long way." Encapsulated in a world brimming with limits and restraints, Talat heard these words with strange trepidation, she doubts whether she has the authority to determine the length of this "long way". Meet Talat Sheikh, an ordinary 16 year-old girl who hails from a tiny village named Rasoolpur. Accompany her on a journey of persevering, transitioning, discovering, losing and conquering. Married at 16 to a man named Aftab who belongs to one of the wealthiest family in the village of Karaundi, read how a young Talat goes through a jagged path, grappling with her own feelings, challenging the lines inscribed on her palms, abandoning her girlhood, her identity, belying her love for her first sweetheart Mahib. Did she win? How long did it take? What did she lose? What did she gamble? There are a lot of questions. So go on and see for yourself. Set up in the years 1998-2015 , Her journey is equally poignant and beatific. It will inspire you and it will unusually shatter you. Have a great read!Complete
