Add to basketPaperback. An unmarried mother's baby.Maira was his enemy, a beautiful one. She was one of those for whom he could cry, and he did. A literary crossover of psychological realism. He is a Muslim, but adores a Christian family as his own. Abandoned at birth in the middle of night near the gate of a public park, found, rescued and blessed by a Christian morning walker, he is now the Managing Director of Hayat Group of Companies. He blames his biological family and the society for his abandonment, not his mother. A wealthy Muslim family has raised him. He has so many mothers now, an abundance of everything. 'The Baby Who Brought the Storm' is a tribute to unmarried mothers. The protagonist has paid a heavy price for this tribute. For this mindset. Pakistani families can raise the illegitimate children of other people happily but kill or abandon their own if born out of wedlock. Aadam is grateful to his biological mother for giving him life; he has never seen her, nor does he want to see her, still he has a soft spot for her. He is taking a new start with his friend or girlfriend, Mooba, the girl whom he has loved since his school days. Meanwhile, he meets a sad and beautiful unmarried pregnant girl and, moved by her helplessness, decides to do something for her. It becomes his biggest mistake and ruins the family that has raised him. He's trying to control its fallout and wants to change the situation for the better. Rightly or wrongly, he is known to be a manipulator. He wants to save as much as he can, important things first, such as his love. It has several dream worlds; some get broken; some remain intact. Smiling when he should cry, Aadam is trying to save his dream world. It is a tale of bliss and sorrow, oscillating joy, ecstasy, grief, depression, forbidden love, loyalty, betrayal and social taboos. This item is printed on demand.
