5.0
Farah Naaz Rishi is an ordinary girl. She is a girl just like us. She is a girl who had dreams of becoming a writer since an early age, who had a family who loved her, but who also were a source of constant pain to her. She had parents who wanted the best for her and gave her all the materialistic comfort she needed to have a stable life but said parents didn’t support her dreams. She had a difficult relationship with her mother. Her brother was her one of the comfort person but she lost him too soon, and she had a father, with whom she could talk about a lot of things, except her dreams . She’s also a girl who wanted to find love and found it in the form of her best friend who has stuck by her through her most difficult and most joyful phases of her life and seeing her and Stephen’s love and friendship blossom has really been a balm to the otherwise depressing moments of her life. She is just like us who dreamed and she, just like us, might haven’t achieved momentous wins in her life yet but she is living each day, through loss, grief, trauma and she has also found the love of her life and friends and cousins and sisters from different mothers who have been a comfort through it all. She is just like us.
