Chapter 6 - Chapter 6: The Attempt to Kill

Though the child had survived the first attempt on her life, her aunt was not ready to give up.

Consumed by darkness and greed, she made a second attempt—but fate once again stood by the child's side, and the plan failed.

Days passed, but the danger never truly faded.

One quiet evening, Meera stood alone on the rooftop, near the edge.

The sky was painted in fading shades of orange and grey, and a soft wind brushed against her tear-streaked face. Lost in memories of her parents, she wept silently, her small heart heavy with grief and longing.

At that very moment, her aunt appeared.

She walked slowly, her eyes cold and calculating.

Seeing Meera vulnerable and unaware, she realized this was the perfect opportunity. Without hesitation, she moved closer—step by step—until she stood right behind the child.

And then, in a sudden, cruel moment… she pushed Meera off the rooftop.

The world seemed to stop.
