The angel of the orphan
In a forgotten village where hardship is inherited and hope is a scarce currency, one woman stands as the beating heart of hundreds of broken stories. Angel of the Orphans is the breathtaking tale of a woman who gave everything-love, shelter, her very soul-to over 500 abandoned children, without the help of the government, without applause, and without asking for anything in return. She is not rich. She is not famous. But to the lost and discarded, she is everything. Through famine, ridicule, political neglect, and spiritual trials, she builds a sanctuary from scratch-brick by painful brick. Her home becomes a fortress of second chances, her arms a resting place for shattered spirits. But her light also casts shadows in a community poisoned by patriarchy and silence. When she rescues a young underage wife from an abusive marriage, she challenges an age-old system-and the system strikes back. With lyrical prose and raw emotion, Angel of the Orphans is both an intimate character portrait and a sweeping social commentary. It's a story of resistance wrapped in maternal tenderness, and a searing reminder that love is not a weakness-it's a revolution. And revolutions, even the gentlest ones, come with a cost.

Before we knew what love meant
It started the way most first loves do-quietly, almost like an accident. One moment, they were just classmates sharing glances across the room, and the next, it felt like the world shifted every time they were near each other. It wasn't the kind of love built on perfect lines or grand gestures. It was awkward, soft, sometimes clumsy-but it was real. She didn't expect him to matter. He was just the boy who sat behind her in math, the one who always seemed to be late but somehow knew exactly what to say when she needed someone to talk to. He didn't expect her either. She wasn't the loudest, or the most popular, but something about the way she saw the world made him want to see it with her. They learned what love wasn't before they ever figured out what it was. There were moments of silence that felt too long, fights that didn't make sense, and heartbreaks that came before any real promises were ever made. But in between the confusion, they found something worth remembering-a kind of love that only happens once, because it's the first. This is a story about growing up and falling in love without knowing how to do either. About holding hands for the first time and not realizing it would be something you'd miss years later. About two people who met too young to know what forever meant, but old enough to believe in it anyway.
