As the ship's shattered hull sank into the depths, only two survivors remained: Naib Subedar and another passenger. The storm raged on relentlessly, and the two clung to the wreckage, fighting against the fury of the waves. Naib, even amidst the chaos, remained calm, as though he had faced such peril countless times before

'Hold onto this rope tightly,'

Naib instructed, his eyes fixed on the crashing waves. Without hesitation, the passenger obeyed, their trembling hands gripping the rope. Naib swiftly secured it to a sturdy fragment of the wreck, his movements deliberate and unyielding despite the storm's wrath

When another wave slammed into them, Naib pulled the rope with practiced precision, lifting the passenger to a safer part of the wreck. As the storm tested their limits, Naib’s steady resolve became their only anchor in a sea of despair

Hours seemed to stretch endlessly before the storm began to subside. As the first rays of dawn pierced the horizon, the water revealed only Naib and the passenger still afloat. Exhaustion and fear were etched into their faces, mingled with the disbelief of survival.

Naib pointed toward the water.

'Look,'

He said

That piece of land. We can make it there.' With weary determination, they began their journey toward the distant shore

By the time they reached the beach hours later, both were battered but alive. Without a word, Naib rose to his feet, his movements heavy but purposeful. He walked away in silence, leaving behind not just a rescued life, but a story of survival and resilience
