    Karachi, After Midnight: VOLUME 3—PART I: MY IDEAL TOP (2005)


    Shams falls hard for Mr B, who likes him back enough to take over the blog and write a post himself. He comes out to a close friend who tells him nothing has changed, drives across Karachi to meet a man who actually shows up, and lives under his mother's constant surveillance. In October the earthquake hits.
