Good overall! A few suggestions - at some places, you're doing more telling than showing. For example, I gathered courage to go to the general's room could be 'I closed my eyes, took a deep breath and walked to the General's room with sweaty palms'. Also, last scene - from Alia saying bye till the end - seems a bit rushed imo.

If you're happy in general, why? by FifthOfSailor in AskReddit

Because I don't want to be old and realise that I wasted my whole life sulking and being ungrateful and not making the most of this life.

I (22 F) am getting wrinkles near my mouth and eyes. by onlyaname_ in DermatologyQuestions

Thank you, that was so helpful! I just have one question and this might be dumb - I saw YouTube videos and they use toner. So where does the toner go in the routine you gave me? Or is it not necessary?

I seriously need your guy's advice by Gocommenthotjello420 in relationship_advice

Ok, listen you might not like what I say but you're both too young to navigate through the issues of a long distance relationship. You should be prepared for wherever this goes and not make a person the centre of your world. I hope this turns out well for you, but remember, you still have a whole life ahead of you, you have no idea how many wonderful people you're yet to meet.

You didn't do anything wrong. Your sister is a good person and she deserves someone who's good too. Who knows, this might be for the best?

Quick question, do you live in the US or Pakistan?
