In a quiet town, little Laila spent her nights caught between fear and shadows. Whenever darkness fell, monsters would emerge from the corners of her room, turning whispers into terrifying melodies that played on the strings of her little heart.But one night, when the moon was at its most beautiful, “the smiling man” appeared.The man wore the cloak of night, and his face glowed with a smile full of warmth and reassurance.He gently told her that he lived on the moon and that he was there to protect her from all her fears.His words were like magic, clearing the clouds from Layla’s sky and granting her a deep sense of peace.
