This isn't a fairytale. It's not about healing wrapped in pretty metaphors or families tied together with love. This is Adhira's story. A girl who grew up in a house that looked like a home from the outside but felt like a battlefield inside. Where taunts were louder than love. Where silence was survival. Where every choice she made was questioned, every spark she had was shamed. She didn't ask to be different. She just wanted to be seen. But instead, she was judged for opening her hair, for speaking up, for simply existing. This book isn't about revenge. It's about truth. The truth of what it feels like to grow up being told you're never enough. The quiet kind of pain that doesn't leave bruises but still scars you for years. And maybe just maybe it's also about finding the strength to stop shrinking. To stop apologizing. To stop hiding who you are. This is for every girl who was told to lower her voice. For every daughter who was made to feel like a burden. For every version of Adhira still learning that her existence doesn't need permission.
