 ABSENCE is a collection of missing pieces—stories that reflect on the complexities of relationships, or sometimes the lack thereof. Each narrative explores the different ways absence manifests itself in our lives, whether through physical distance, emotional gaps, or unspoken thoughts.
 With a poetic and introspective approach, these urban tales invite the reader to pause and consider the beauty hidden in life’s smallest moments. Through these stories, we discover how the subtle and often unnoticed details of everyday life carry profound meaning and can shape our understanding of connection, loss, and everything in between.
