The future is Female

A young woman named Rozina lived in the bustling city of Lahore, where the ancient and modern worlds collide. She was known for her radiant smile and kind heart, always ready to lend a helping hand to those in need. She possessed a deep sense of empathy and understanding,

making others feel heard and valued. Rozina came from a well-respected family,

her father an associate professor & mother a housewife. Rozina worked as a

school teacher, inspiring young minds with her passion for education and her

love for literature. Rozina was a romantic girl by nature, who cherished love

and intimacy, finding joy in expressing her feelings through thoughtful

gestures and heartfelt words. She wanted to seek a life partner who can make

deep emotional connections and delights in creating memorable moments with her.

One day, while returning home from work, Rozina's car broke down. Stranded on a busy street, she felt a wave of anxiety wash over her. Just then, a good looking man approached her. His name was Zain, a labourer who worked on construction sites. With a warm smile, he offered to help fix her

car. Grateful for his assistance, Rozina accepted his offer. After he fixed his car issue, Zain asked Rozina to give her contact number. First, Rozina hesitated but after Zain’s insistence, she gave her phone number to him. Zain sent her a WhatsApp message, and Rozina added Zain in her contacts list.

Rozina, after returning home, thanked Zain again for his help. They began to develop a friendship, and soon, Rozina found herself drawn to his humble nature, hardworking spirit and good moral values. Despite their different social backgrounds, they shared a connection that felt genuine and pure.

As their relationship blossomed, Rozina's friends and family expressed their concerns. They worried about the stark differences in their lifestyles and the potential challenges they might face.

But Rozina, ever the optimist, believed that genuine love could conquer all differences.

However, as time passed, Zain's behaviour began to change. The man who once helped Rozina and replied to her messages instantly, started to show signs of manipulation. He started to ignore her

messages on WhatsApp and replied to each message after a day or two. At first, Rozina

dismissed these as signs of his deep love for her, but soon, the emotional

abuse became more apparent. Rozina remained worried on Zain’s ignorant, rude

and arrogant behavior and waited whole night for his reply on phone. She checked her WhatsApp again and again curiously to see whether Zain replied or not.

But stonehearted, cruel, selfish and arrogant Zain slept whole night peacefully without seeing his phone.

Rozina didn’t know about Zain's evil, wicked, dark and villainous intentions about her. Actually, Zain was considering Rozina as a flirt material and a timepass. He just replied to her messages for his zing and oomph feelings. He was a totally insincere and selfish person who never cared about Rozina’s feelings. Zain's words, once sweet and comforting, turned harsh and demeaning.

He started to make fun of Rozina’s feelings by sending laughing emojis to her in his replies on Whatsapp. He would belittle Rozina, making her feel worthless, inferior and insignificant. Rozina, trapped in a web of manipulation, began to lose her sense of self. Within a month,

Rozina got severely depressed and developed a lot of physical problems due to chronic stress.

The vibrant woman who once lit up every room she entered now felt like a shadow of her former self. She would often find herself crying alone, questioning her worth and her decisions. The emotional scars ran deep, and the pain was unbearable.

One evening, after a particularly harsh argument, Rozina found herself standing in front of a mirror. She barely recognized the woman staring back at her. The spark in her eyes was gone, replaced by a look of despair. Her fair complexion was faded away. She also developed many health problems like lack of quality sleep & backache due to chronic stress. It was in that enlightening moment, Rozina realized she needed to reclaim her life back from this dark trap.

With a newfound determination, Rozina reached out to her old friends and family. She confided in them about the emotional abuse. To her surprise, they welcomed her with open arms, offering their unwavering support and love. They reminded her of the strong, independent woman she once was & encouraged her to seek help.

Rozina began attending therapy sessions, where she learned to rebuild her self-esteem and regain control of her life. She also joined a support group for women who had experienced similar situations.

Through their shared stories, she found solace. Slowly but surely, Rozina started to heal. She

rediscovered her passion for teaching and threw herself into her work. Her students, who had always admired her, noticed the change & were inspired by her resilience.

Zain, realizing that he could no longer control Rozina, tried to win her back with apologies & promises of change.

But Rozina, now stronger & wiser, knew better. She had learned the hard way that true love should never come at the cost of one's self-worth.

In time, Rozina moved on from the painful chapter of her life. She continued to grow, both personally & professionally.

She became an advocate for women's rights, using her story to raise awareness about emotional abuse and the importance of self-love & empowerment.

Rozina's journey was not an easy one, but it was a testament to the strength & resilience that lies within every individual. She emerged from the darkness, not as a victim, but as a survivor, ready to face the world with her head held high.

And so, in the bustling heart of Lahore, surrounded by both the city's chaos & charm, Rozina's journey emerged as a beacon of hope.

It served as a powerful reminder that, regardless

of the challenges faced, one can always

discover the inner strength to overcome adversity

& take back control of their life.
