Hi there,
I see you have a static homepage set for your site, but you aren’t listing your posts on that page, and you also don’t have a separate page set up to display your posts. This means the only way to get to the post is via the direct link, https://barbackstories.wordpress.com/2022/05/20/pilot/
There are two options for you here:
1) if you want your posts to appear on the homepage itself, edit that page under Pages ->All Pages, and add the Blog Posts block at the point you want your posts to appear:
https://wordpress.com/en/support/wordpress-editor/blocks/blog-posts-block/
2) If you want a separate page for your posts, go to Pages ->Add New and create a new blank page. Give it a title, but publish without adding any content.
Then go to Appearance ->Customize ->Homepage Settings. You’ll see an option for Front Page and Posts Page there. Your Home page is already selected under Front Page. Select the new blank page you created under Posts Page, and update your settings.

Then as a last step, you’ll need to add a menu to your site that links to this post page. You can do that in the Customizer as well, under the Menus tab. The page here will guide you through that process:

Let us know if you run into any trouble with these steps :)

I followed each link and tried both options but still cannot manage to see the actual post…

Okay, I can see you’ve created a Posts page. But you haven’t assigned that page as your posts page in the Customizer, and you haven’t added the page to your site’s menu.
To assign it as the posts page you need to select it here:
And to add the new page to your menu you need to add it here:
