author's note

Two years after her father's demise, Ikram moved to Kano for a fresh start. But life isn't all about give and take, it's so much more. And a fresh start might not mean a peaceful one. Yet, Ikram was ready to confront the consequences and live on, so long it doesn't have anything to do with him. The cold narcissist, the heartless man, the man from the shop, whichever you may choose. He makes her blood boil.

But life has a funny way of playing out, and certain things are just beyond the clutch of our fingertips.

Will Ikram cross that thin line between hate and love?

Or will she give up everything to see him go down?
