Thanks, Dipta. Hope your weekend is as amazing as you are.

I've tried to stay positive, giving people the benefit of the doubt and tolerating more than I probably should. It’s a way of managing stress and maintaining inner peace by choosing to focus on understanding rather than letting negativity take over.

I’m not sure I’d want to turn back time. Let’s let the past stay where it belongs.

I love my facial features—they’re like a perfect mix of both my mom and dad. It’s like I carry a bit of each of them in one look.

Just be comfortable with me. I really love it when people open up and share their stories without feeling the need to hold back or fear being judged.

Amara feels like that rebellious little sister whose mood is always unpredictable. She can be such a nag, always finding something to tease or complain about, but she’s also always there—constant, dependable, even if she doesn’t always show it. And when she’s in her serious mode, she gives the best advice. She’s got this bright, outgoing personality that makes everyone think she’s invincible, but sometimes I see glimpses of her more fragile side, the part of her she tries so hard to hide. It makes me want to protect her, even though she’s the one always looking out for me.

Yes, I’ve set my eyes on someone, but I’m not convinced the feeling is mutual. So, I guess I’ll just let it slide?

A long weekend spent savoring delicious meals, each dish lovingly prepared by my grandma. Also, it’s been so long since I’ve seen her smile, that beautiful smile that lights up her whole face.

It’s almost strange to reflect on a year and not pinpoint one glaring moment where I wish I could have done things differently. But at the same time, isn't that something worth celebrating?

You know I prefer action over words, sayang. Let your lips find mine and let that kiss speak for us.

Derai, you’re an incredible writer, and I really appreciate your work. Our first encounter was quite intense and too [redacted], but now that I’ve come to know you better, I find such comfort in our conversations. You’re a charming and fascinating person, and I’d love to get to know you even more.

I think I’d definitely choose the modern era over any historical period. The conveniences and all the everyday comforts make life so much easier and more enjoyable.
