Author’s Note
Hey…
Before you step into this story, I want to be honest.
These pages weren’t written lightly. They were carved out of long nights, quiet tears, stubborn hope, and a heart that refused to stay silent.
This is my first story, but it carries pieces of me I’ve never spoken — the kind of emotions that burn before they heal.
You might find flaws. A rough line. An imperfect rhythm.
But every word is real, and every scene was written with a truth I couldn’t ignore.
Zaynah and Jimin aren’t just characters.
They are broken souls searching for light, faith, and forgiveness — the things we all chase in different ways.
If their journey shakes you, comforts you, or even hurts you a little…
then maybe you’ll understand why I had to write this.
Thank you for choosing to walk into this story.
Your time, your eyes, your heart — they matter to me more than you know.
— Sumu
