Alishba. She signed her name on the document. What an ordinary thing it was, a signature. She remembered being in school, writing her signature over and over in her books for the fun of it. However, this time, her hand trembled. Turning the page, she filled in another empty slot. Her eyes skimmed over the contract, barely making sense of it all. The ink spelled out her name in the final slot of her marriage contract. Since she was younger, Alishba has always dreamed of a future full of success and a busy work life. Her life turns upside down when her father is accused of holding an illegal business and her family falls apart. Before she knows it, she is wearing a bridal dress and is marrying a guy whom she has never even met. When he fails to show up at the wedding, one rash decision leaves Alishba at the hands of a dangerous group of people. As she tries to adjust to her new reality, she only ends up weaving herself deeper but in the process, also unwinding herself and the secrets that are hidden in the crooks of dark streets and placid smiles.
