RE: Beyond the Abaya | عبایا کے اُس پار

The story was well written and the message was very clear and vivid.
Here's another thematic perspective which I've seen in the story.
You see how influencial is the effect of familial bondage on one's personality.
Society's gonna do what they always did, but one's family is the prime protection. If they believe in you and got your back, then who cares what others think of you.
Also we cannot totally blame Sadia for judging others, because this is what she grew up in.
Though, there's no doubt that contradiction of 'Appearance Vs Reality' is always gonna be there🙌
I'm glad that this story made out of your drafts, and got published.✨🦋
By the way, it is always nice to see one's name as the protagonist 😅

I perceive the matter regarding family a bit differently. In my opinion, it's not necessary that family always supports us in the right things. Sometimes, it's essential to consider what society might be thinking as well. This also helps reaffirm that family isn't playing a significant role in leading you astray. These thoughts crossed my mind, so I thought I'd mention them.

I didn't imply any blame on Saadiya in my story; I was simply depicting an environment similar to what is found in some Pakistani households.

Well, someone mentioned how long this story had been brewing in my drafts.

Sometimes, I forget that your name is Ayesha. Thank you for reading the story and liking it. I hope your encouragement will help me write more good stories in the future.
