"I told him my father’s story. Of shedding a burden when it was becoming too much, a burden taken on by choice and not necessity. By the end the air felt thick even though I’d forgotten to plug in the electric heater again." Read @alizah_hashmi on AMPLIFY ournameisamplify.com/fiction/djinn-…

This publication means so much to me. I worked hard to get this story to say what I felt. (Many drafts!) It was inspired by @Harry_Styles’ cover of Girl Crush by @reba. I had to capture what that song made me feel and here it is.
