I opened the door to find Dadi (paternal grandmother), not mine but Rehan's dadi. I looked at my outfit, I was wearing a T-shirt and a pajama without hijab, just a dupatta around my shoulder. My hair is no less than any mess.
"Assalamualaikum!" I greeted her. Thanks to Allah, ammi is not here. She will not leave me for being a mess around some elders.
"Walaikumassalam!" She greeted me by kissing my forehead.
"How are you? Heard you were in the hospital."
"Alhamdulilah! I'm fine now. What about you?" I said.
"Fine as ever". She chuckled. "Cover yourself, child, I'm with my grandson," she said tapping my shoulder.
"Could you please ask him to wait outside, my friends are here too" I asked.
"Sure," She said and yelled "Rehu beta, stay there for a few minutes"
I smiled at his nickname and rushed to the living room. "Clean the room," I said wrapping my dupatta like a hijab, a great advantage of this is it covers me to the knees.
We three started cleaning, I took all the chips and placed them on the near table. Maryam took the empty soda cans and tossed them in the dustbin. Safa took the charge to off the TV. Finally, everything was in the right place. At least it didn't look as bad as before.
I went out to receive dadi. "So can we come in? " She asked. What an embarrassment! I nod my head saying yes.
I turned back to see my friends in their beautiful hijabs. "Where is Amira(my mom)?" Dadi asked. It's weird to call her dadi, what should I do she asked me to call her by that name.
"Ammi has gone to the hospital with Aisha"
"Is everything fine?" She asked, concerned.

"Yeah! Actually, Aisha is pregnant, so it's her appointment with the doctor"
"Masha Allah!" She said fully happy. This is the thing about elders, they get happy for every reason. She turned to my friends and gave me a questioning look.
"These are my friends, Maryam & Safa," I said pointing to each. Dadi kissed their forehead too.
We all sat talking about random matters. She is too young for her age. I missed Sidra. We bonded great last time.
"It would have been great if Sidra was here," I said.
"She has exams" She replied.
I looked at Rehan, who was in the corner of the room. Why didn't I notice him before? He was on his phone. Poor man! What else he could do among us? He looked at me and gave me a smile, which didn't fail to bring some new feelings in me. A perfect smile.
"Always on phone," said dadi pointing to Rehan.
"Sorry" He replied with a grin, keeping the phone back in his pocket.
I don't blame him for this. We are indeed addicted to our phones and what else he could do among us?
"Rehan, where are the Gulab jamun which I brought?" dadi asked.
"It's on the table outside, I will bring it," he said.
"No. I'll have it" I said, already on my feet. I found the box of Gulab jamun. I took it to the kitchen to fetch some cups and spoons. This is my favorite sweet.
"Fine?" Rehan asked.
"Yep" I replied. I must say he is so handsome in this black down button shirt. Wait, he always dresses in black, why?
"Need some water." He said.
I gave him water.
"Can I ask you something?" I nodded saying yes.
"Will you marry me?" He asked.

Macabre Mim
*Note: This story is on hiatus. I intend to pick it up again, but the mood of my life has shifted for the time being and I'm going to be working on a side project for a bit.* What would you give to live the life of your dreams? What kind of deal would you make? And when you were there, forced to stare your dreams in the eye and live them every day, how long would it be... before they broke you? Author's note: This is my first excursion outside the realm of villain fan fiction and I welcome feedback. The thing I've loved most about RRL so far is the potential for writing to be an interactive experience with excited readers. That said, also, the primary genre this is intended for is the blossoming realm of LitRPG. Namely, a slice of life tale in the manner of Grimgar or Re:Zero. So, likewise, I don't expect there will ever be a clear beginning-middle-and-end type of pattern to this story. It will likewise always be a bit more of a reactionary, exploratory novel into realms unknown - much like the 1800 travel-novel theme used by Jules Verne. Or, at least, that is my ambition.

Whites' Veil
A boy leaves his hometown, tired of his menial life and, most importantly, the poverty of his village. His destination is Rubia, Capital of the Five Continents; and his goal, money to bring home. Though, that may just be an excuse; an excuse for him to leave the confines of his so-far idolised life--a life free from the endless adoration and praise, for reasons he detests. So he invites you to join him, to grow alongside him and to, one day, celebrate next to him. The year is 97c. Welcome to the Pentas Dale. Welcome to Whites' Veil... ‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵ Useful info. Usually, I publish on Sundays, if not, I aim for once a week or attempt to keep at least a bi-weekly schedule. This is a hobby/side project for me so I may go for long periods of time without uploading. I also recommend reading the story with Garamond, as this is the font I use for my manuscripts (obviously optional). ‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵ Links.

The Contact Person
It was the modern day earth. Kaushik Roy was a typical Indian. He had a rough upbringing. His parents were not the most responsible ones around. But he tried to fit into the society. He went to office, worked to the bone all day, and came back home late at night, all the while trying to pay the bills and save enough for the future. He didn't even had one girlfriend till now. A bona fide Virgin. Roy thought this is how he will spend the rest of his life, sad and alone. However, all of this changed when he opened the promised gift on his birthday night. Follow Roy as he goes from being a common earthling to being the most important person in the history of mankind, The Contact Person. This will be a light hearted story at its core. There will be no torture, rape, or any dark theme. There will be action sequences and blood, but nothing excessive. There will be different alien races. No usual elfs, orks, dragons etc. For now, I count 5 girls around Roy. Number may increase in future. Magic will be there, however it will be different from the usual found in this website. With all that said, please enjoy the story and don't forget to support me through Paypal and Patreon.
