Everything changed the day Amira was born.
The world outside was collapsing — bombs, dust, screams, and fear. Yet inside a small room, by the dim light of a single candle, a new life began.
While others were running for shelter, I was holding my newborn daughter, trembling, crying, trying to believe that something so pure could still exist in a place like Gaza.
I named her Amira, because I wanted her to feel like a child of life —not a child of war.
A year has passed since that night, but nothing has really changed
Our house is still rubble, our streets still carry the smell of smoke, and the sky still echoes with sounds that make Amira flinch in her sleep.
She has just turned one.
She’s learning to walk, holding my finger with her tiny hand, laughing at the smallest things — as if she doesn’t see the destruction around her.
She doesn’t know the word “loss.”
She never met her father, but when she smiles, I see him there.
Sometimes I watch her sleeping, and I wonder what kind of world she will grow up in — whether she will ever know what peace feels like, what home smells like.
And yet, when she opens her eyes in the morning and says “mama,” everything becomes bearable again.
I want to rebuild our home.
Not just for the walls — but for her future.
For Amira to have a small room, a safe place to dream, a life that belongs to her, not to war.
I’m not asking for much. Only for a chance to give her a beginning filled with warmth instead of fear
My name is Saja. I am a mother, a wife, and just one of many women in Gaza trying to hold on — to hope, to my family, and to a life that no
A Mother’s Message
To everyone reading this — thank you for listening to our story.
Your kindness means more than words.
Every share, every message, every donation — it all helps me rebuild not just a house, but a future for Amira.
From the heart of Gaza, from a mother learning to hope again —
we will live. And I will make sure my daughter grows up in a world that knows love more than war.
( fic ; 1.2k + ! ) cw ! ━━ blk!f. reader ( she/her prns. ) modern au. suggestive. you & gaku attend the same college. cheating. implications of sex. swearing. kissing ( making out ). gaku is nonchalant nerd (6’1 nonchalant dread head type shii😏😏). low-key cliche. very veryyy rushed. not proofread.
"I know you fucking lying." you mumbled in disbelief as the tray of juice fell from your hands, at the scene before you.
Your boyfriend━ no.. your EX - boyfriend in bed with some random girl, half naked, fondling and groping each other, quite literally on the verge of fucking.
Upon hearing the juice and tray hitting the floor, they both flicked up, the girl grabbing a nearby pillow and covering her naked chest. "Fuck!" he yelled
You squint your eyes at her and scoffed recognizing her face as your ex scurried over to you with a pitiful look on his face.
" baby look I-" at that point you basically zoned him out stepping past him and the spilled drinks, grabbing your charger that you left yesterday from his dresser and made you way to exit the room.
"Y/N please!" he yelled grabbing your wrist. you turned around and slapped him in his face.
"you're fucking disgusting, okay? As a matter of fact, you both are—absolutely disgusting. What happened to her being your cousin, huh?" you snapped, going off on them.
"And you," you pointed at the girl, who had a shameful look on her face. "you’re such a low-life bitch. Are you not ashamed? He introduced you as his cousin to literally everybody, and now you’re about to spread your legs for him."
"fuck you. Both of you. Fuck you and fuck off," you spat dryly, before slamming the door behind you to keep them from starting another sob story.
You sighed holding back the tears that were trying to escape as you took up your purse from his counter and shoved your charger in there while removing your phone. You travelled 1 hour for nothing apparently.
"so fucking aggravating" you mumbled to yourself. as you were leaving you called for an uber to pick you up from the mall close by, you quickly slid your feet back in your crocs, exited the house and made your way to the mall.
After awhile your uber arrived and you entered the car and greeted him, telling him exactly where you were going.
ding! ding! ding! 3 new messages from "gaku ( coding class ) 👾 ' ."
You sat up quickly unlocking you phone and sliding in the chat, responding to the messages from Gaku, he's this really fine shit from your coding class who's been preying on you for the longest while and literally your only friend in that class. You guys recently got paired up for an assignment so you've been speaking more since recently.
'I should've fucked with him, from the first time he was flirting with me, maybe it would make me feel better about what just happened but unlike that asshole I'm not a cheater and never will be, unfortunately.' You thought to yourself
You smiled to yourself replying to his messages, fidgeting your toes against each other.
" ━and then like I slapped him in the fucking face and told both of them off and stuff.. so yea that's basically what happened"
"so did he hit you back or.. what?" Gaku asked with a raised eyebrow
"oh no, he was so shocked I think he was in the same position even when I was leaving the room" you answered proudly.
"you're awfully happy about this" he snickered
You smiled "because I thought I would cry and make a fool of myself, but thankfully I didn't"
"oh, good for you"
The room━ his room got awkwardly silent but for some reason it didn't necessarily create an uncomfortable environment. "so about what I said in those messages" gaku started leaning in closer.
You felt your heartbeat slightly increase as you fidgeted with your fingers "what about it?" you were both seated on the edge of his bed, his long slender feet flat on the floor, while you're feet were hovering over the wooden floor, showing an obvious difference in your size compared to his.
"give it any thought?"
"is there something you trynna say Gaku?"
"Y/N.."
"hmm?"
"will you please be my girlfriend ?"
at this point your heart was practically beating out of your chest, your ears getting clouded and your face was basically a heater "huh?"
gaku chuckled quietly at your reaction before repeating the question even louder with a softer tone.
"Y/N L/N would you please be my girlfriend?"
"what the fuck?
am I getting dysfunctional or something.. I thought you gave up on me.. well relationship wise atleast,
I assumed that message was just some silly joke to cheer me up or something━ this is insane, this shit is actually real? like actually? " you started to ramble
Before you could go any further, in one swift motion, you felt a pair of soft, wet lips connect with yours. You gasped at the sudden action as the platinum-haired boy stared at you quietly.
"sorry, was that too sudden?" he asked.
Without a second thought, you grabbed his face and pressed your lips to his once more. The subtle scent of lemons wafted over your nose.
He slowly placed his hand on your hips as you leaned in, deepening the kiss—like a secret passed from lips to lips. Gently, he squeezed your hips, causing you to gasp softly. Seizing the moment, he slipped his tongue into your mouth.
You hummed softly, your fingers threading through strands of his hair as you pulled him closer. Your tongues intertwined as he gently laid back, pulling you on top of him—straddling him on his lap—without breaking the kiss. Your teeth grazed his lips, and as the kiss grew messier, the wet sounds echoed in the room.
Within a few seconds, you both pulled back, smiling at each other.
"my answer is yes," you whispered.
"I could tell," he responded quickly, a smug look on his face.
"I'm sure you could" you smiled resting your head on his chest.

I definitely didn’t forget about this ( hahahahhahaha ) but moving on… sorry for the random pop up guys, hope you missed meeee, I haven’t logged in to tumble for a while now and I’ve been demotivated for the longest while due to school and personal life. My country is currently experiencing a category 5 hurricane ( hurricane Melissa ) so h in have no wifi or electricity atm luckily there’s signal here and there so I’m able to access the internet using my mobile data☺️☺️’ .
Probably gonna change up this wip master list cause I lost the ideas for a few of these things but I’m gonna add new ones so don’t een worry bout it.. anyways
I know I might’ve said something like this already but I’m backkkk!! And hopefully I can get more work done to grow my platform and wtv. My laptop isn’t on tho cause it’s dead so for now this is just a small notice I guess????
I don’t think I’ve improved on my writing skills as yet so my fics are probably still going to be rlly shitty!
I’m also planning to change my user and my theme so stay tuned.. I’m also updating my whole blog since I’ve found new interests but ummmmmm hope this msg does some justice as to why I was missing for so long!
