Opposites

Important authors note!!!!!

So, I wanted to clear things up and possibly prepare you for trigger warnings and explain why I write some things. This is not a fan fiction. This is an original work by me that I thought I'd like to share. This is really copyrighted so no stealing :). I'm really happy that it already has like 56 reads with two chapters. I will be updating tomorrow afternoon so be ready! I've been writing a two part series for the past two and a half years and they are finally in the works of being published so I've decided to write this while I wait patiently for the publication of The Resistance Has Risen. I really wanted to share Opposites with you all because it is another story that I've written and am currently editing while altering copyrights. It's really confusing and boring so I'll shut up about that.

Okay so, in this story, there will be scenes of abuse. Cali has been through a lot in her life and I wanted to warn you for what is to come. If you are bothered by scenes like this or traumatized by a situation like this, I will put a trigger warning for abuse in front of the chapter.

Cali does keep her abuse a secret. I am not glamorizing the idea of getting someone to break down your barriers and fix you. I believe that if this has happened to you, you need to tell an authority right away as soon as you know you're safe from harm. Do not think that depression, anxiety, being abused or anything of the sort is some sort of personality perk. Sadness is not beauty. Sadness and such is something that needs to be fixed. It won't be fixed by your partner and you shouldn't leave that up to them. You need to work on yourself and not completely count on them.

The reason I wrote about Cali being abused and having a sad home is because I do believe characters need to go through hardships in order to be realistic. It's also to expose the things that really happen in the real world. Women and men who are abused go through so many traumatic events. If I can make you care enough to try in help in any way that I can, I'd be really happy. It's not to make you wish to have something like that in order for you to have a personality perk. They're not personality perks and I honestly can't stress that enough. Not only am I trying to build up a good story, I'm trying to expose the cruel culture of it all.

Suicide and alcoholism will also be lightly talked about as Cali's mother commit and her father was an alcoholic. These are also not something "special." I really hope you realize how much I'm not trying to glamorize any of these things. They're not poetic or beautiful.

Now that I've explained this, thank you for reading. I'm so excited about sharing my works with you all. Thank you for being you. :)
