Play! [Discontinued]

Message From Maja Diana

Hi guys.

I don't know how many of you actually reads the messages I broadcast on my board, but I thought I should post it here anyway. First of all, SORRY for tricking you into thinking I've updated. I know, I'm the worst of scums, and I'll forever hide in a corner filled with shame.

As mentioned before, I had every intention of finishing this story. And while that still counts, I have to be realistic about it. It's not going to happen in the near future. But before you curse me out, let me try to explain myself, eh?

One of the reasons, as you already know, is because of my health. I took a pretty psychological hit back in December when I was presented with the possibility that it might be cancer. Of course, we all know that it could happen, but at the same time, once it's right in front of us, it's scary as hell. (Pardon my language) and in a way, my brain just suffered a small meltdown from that. At first, I just kept trudging through, writing to forget anything else, and if you guys recall, I wrote a lot during that time. Then finally in January, I was told to seek out other explanations, and that took a physical toll. That's when my break started.

During this time, we have crossed off a bunch of illnesses without coming any closer to an explanation. And while it's a relief that I don't suffer from the big baddies, it's the uncertainty that's slowly eating me up from the inside. The fact that something undiscovered could be really wrong with me, but without knowing what it is? Aish. It's agony, I tell ya.

Unfortunately, there's another reason as to why I'm posting this too, and it's honestly one I've held to myself, hoping I could overcome it on my own.

As many of you know, during the time I was away, Zayn left One Direction. Personally, I don't have much of an opinion about that, because I'm sure the people involved have thought it over for themselves, and I wish them all the best forward regardless of their choices. But it does make me feel like writing Play! seems a bit awkward really. Especially, because Zayn was a relatively big part of this story. I know this is fiction and all, and the fact that they're a band isn't that big a part of the story, but it still makes me feel weird.

So, for now, I've decided to stop writing this story. I can't say I'll never finish it, but when and if I do, it'll probably be in a rewrite without including 1D at all. At that time, I hope some of you might remember me, but I'd understand it if you didn't. I'm aware that a lot of you are reading purely for the 1D aspect of the story, and to you, I'm truly sorry.

I don't know when I'll get back to writing in general either. To be honest, I've been considering writing some non-fiction reviews for a while, but there's no actual decision there yet.

So to sum it all up:

I'M SORRY!

I hope you won't hate me.
