Mariam dreaded going to school.
Not because of the children or the chalk dust or the endless registers.
But because of him-the principal whose lingering gaze made her skin crawl, whose presence stole the air from the room.
At home, she was a dutiful daughter-in-law.
At school, she was something else.
Not because of the children or the chalk dust or the endless registers.
But because of him-the principal whose lingering gaze made her skin crawl, whose presence stole the air from the room.
At home, she was a dutiful daughter-in-law.
At school, she was something else.
And when the doors closed and the halls emptied... Mariam's world blurred between fear, guilt, and a desire she didn't want to name.
