Rafay’s life begins in tragedy-the loss of his parents shatters his world and leaves him to face a life of loneliness and hardship under his uncle’s roof. Each night, he writes letters to the parents he can no longer touch, saving them like pieces of his heart locked away in memory. Despite cruelty and sorrow, Rafay finds light in education and faith. His determination leads him from a small schoolroom to the halls of a university where his brilliance shines. Along the way, he meets people who see the goodness in him-teachers who believe in his potential, friends who stand by him, and a woman who teaches him to love again. Through struggle, prayer, and patience, Rafay transforms his pain into purpose. He builds a foundation to help children who’ve suffered as he once did, proving that rain doesn’t just bring sadness-it nurtures new beginnings. Years later, as he stands by his parents’ graves with tears in his eyes and his family by his side, he whispers, “I did it.” “When It Rained Inside Me” is a moving story about endurance, gratitude, and the quiet strength that comes from never giving up on yourself-or on love.
