The Last Lantern: A Grandfather’s Secret and a Grandson’s Promise.
Every year, Ayaan looked forward to summer. Every summer he could return to the hills—to the little town where his grandfather, Baba Jan, lived in an old wooden cottage with a slanted roof and a garden that smelled of dirt and mint—not because school let out or the heat of the city subsided.

When We Were One
Chapter 1: The Old Wooden Table In a small house nestled at the edge of a quiet town stood an old wooden table, worn by time yet sturdy enough to hold decades of memories. It was on this table that Mia found herself one rainy afternoon, drawn by a curious longing she couldn’t quite explain.

A Summer of Silence – When the Heat Took Away Our Nana Jaan
When the intense summer heat gripped the city, a change came into our lives that would stay etched in our hearts forever. It was a season in which we learned a lot, and its intensity taught us lessons that we had never thought we would have to learn. Our Nana Jaan, who had always been a symbol of love for us, appeared completely different during this summer. Her smile, which used to light up our faces, had now faded. Her body, which always felt like a strong pillar, now seemed tired. At first, we didn’t pay much attention to it, as none of us wanted to acknowledge the toll her age might be taking on her body. But soon, it became clear that it wasn’t just old age; the heat had also taken a toll on her health. The change in Nana Jaan’s condition was sudden one day. She began complaining of dehydration and started sleeping throughout the day. Sweat marks appeared on her body, and we never thought that such intense heat could endanger her life. We always assumed that the physical health of the elderly was simply a result of their age, but we didn’t realize that seasonal factors could be just as severe. One day, when we noticed that Nana Jaan’s condition had worsened, we rushed her to the doctor. But by then, it was too late. The doctor told us that her body had become weak due to the heat, and she was suffering from severe dehydration. Hearing this felt like the ground had slipped from under our feet. We had always thought that her staying healthy was a constant reality for us, but that day we learned that life is never predictable. The doctor informed us that had we taken better care of Nana Jaan earlier, she might have been able to recover. But now, it was too late. We asked the doctor if anything could still be done, but his response was simple: “It’s a matter of time, and we must accept the natural course of things.” Nana Jaan’s passing was a deep blow for us. After her departure, the whole house fell silent, as if someone had taken away the light from our world. For the first time after that moment, we thought about how we had neglected the importance of spending time with our elderly. We realized that it wasn’t enough to just spend time with them; we had to take practical steps for their health and well-being. I remember a moment when Nana Jaan’s face was radiant, and we all thought of her as an inseparable part of our lives, imagining she would be with us forever. But now we had to accept the reality that her body had grown tired, and the heat had deeply affected her. After Nana Jaan’s passing, we realized that this season was not just about heat; it was a test. A test that was teaching us how to take better care of our elderly. Everything that happened was a lesson, and we had to learn from it, taking the necessary precautions for our loved ones’ health. From that day on, we made a commitment that whenever there is intense heat, we will pay special attention to our elderly. We decided that we would take all necessary precautions, from keeping them hydrated to ensuring they stay in the shade, and providing them with proper nutrition. We also decided not to let them spend too much time in the sun and to be cautious in their daily activities so as not to put any strain on their bodies. This season taught us that the summer is not just a natural change; it’s an opportunity for us to take care of our elderly family members. Their bodies are more sensitive, and we must adopt precautionary measures to ensure they remain healthy and happy. Nana Jaan’s memories will always live on in our hearts, and her untimely death taught us to appreciate every moment of life. We took this lesson to heart, knowing that it will not only be a reminder for us but for the generations to come. Now, whenever we step outside in the summer or spend time with our elderly loved ones, we are more cautious about their health. This commitment is a tribute to Nana Jaan, who always taught us how to nurture and care for others with love. We vowed never to forget her teachings and to always follow her principles۔

The Window That Cried
In a quiet town wrapped in mist, stood an old wooden house on the corner of Hollow Street. It wasn’t the biggest house, nor the brightest, but something about it made people slow down as they walked by. Maybe it was the strange ivy that grew only on one side. Or perhaps it was the small window on the second floor the one everyone called The Window That Cried.

Growing Up with a Parent in Prison
When I was seven, my dad stopped coming home. There was no explanation that made sense at the time. One day he was there, sitting on the worn couch with his usual cup of tea and half-smile, and the next, he was just... gone.

Linia's "The Invisible Wall"
All parents want their children to grow up healthy and happy. They work day and night to overcome life's challenges, just to give their children a bright future. However, in this tireless effort, some small mistakes may turn into serious problems and unknowingly cast an invisible shadow on the child's physical and mental development. This shadow will eventually solidify into an invisible wall, subtly cutting off the child's path to a truly healthy and fulfilling life.
