I wanna start by saying thank you to all of you guys who are reading, voting and leaving such kind comments on both Wattpad and Archives of our own! It's incredibly encouraging to see that not only do you like the way I interpreted the story and characters but that you also like my writing in itself. I've felt uncomfortable and doubtful about my writing skills for a long time and I've postponed posting the stories that I write for so many years. To know that you guys like it is really nice and it makes me so happy. Our story already has 10k of views on wattpad 😳 and I know it's not much but every single one of these 10k is someone who clicked on the story, read it, maybe liked it,voted for it and or commented on it. It means a lot.
I also wants to talk about what is happening in the us right now, as more than 50% of my viewers/readers (?) are from the USA. George Floyd was killed this week by a police officer, who stood on his neck until he stop breathing while his colleagues not only watched it happened, but did not interfered to make it stop.It is shameful, disgusting and incredibly inhuman. Black people have seen their lived being taken away for no reason other than for being black ever since white people forcefully brought them in America. I hope that you will take this moment to not only pray (if you're religious) and have a thought for him and his family, but most importantly to actively protest against the systemic racism on what this country is built on. It is not enough to not be racist, we must be anti-racist, check our own privileges and think of a effective way for us to not only uplift black peoples -and other people of colour- but to radically changes this system that has been created for and by white men. It is not enough to care about Black Death, we must care and protect Black Lives.
I know this seem like it's the wrong place for me to be doing this, I know you guys wanna read about Charlotte and Sidney and you're not here to read me talk about this heavy subject. But I cannot, will not, stay silent on this. As a white person, I will use every bit of platform that I have, as little at it could be, and use it to put light on issues that matter to means. I have been an ally and always will be an ally. #blacklivesmatter.
The next chapter will be available in a couple of days, I still have one exam left and then I'm school-Free.
I hope you all are staying safe in the pandemic. Stay strong. Stay safe.
Love y'all
❤️🖤
