“We left everything behind, but I promised my daughter a new tomorrow.”
Leila held her daughter’s small hand tightly as they walked the endless road away from the ruins of their home. Her heart ached with every step—memories of laughter, meals shared, the scent of fresh bread now replaced by dust and fear.
Her husband, eyes weary but resolute, pulled their cart with the last of their belongings. Around them, thousands fled, all carrying stories of loss and dreams of safety. Leila whispered soothing words to her daughter, whose wide eyes searched the unfamiliar horizon.
At night, under the cold sky, the family huddled close. Though the road was uncertain and the future unclear, Leila’s promise was clear: they would find a place where hope could grow again.
In the face of despair, their journey was a testament to courage—a fragile yet fierce determination to survive, to rebuild, to believe.
Each step forward was more than escape—it was the beginning of a new story.
