Amarah Akhtar spent a year of her life imprisoned by her kidnappers for a reason she has yet to figure out. She was kidnapped on June 6th, 2018 and spent about a year in captivity. She was only 16 then, but after something unexpected happens on May 29th, 2019, she is given a chance to escape. When she returns home, she is 17 and isn't surprised when she sees that everyone assumed she was dead. They had just started to move on with their lives. As she begins her attempt at healing from her traumatic experience, she has to deal with the high school drama that comes hand in hand with her senior year. The pity stares she receives certainly doesn't help, as well as the rude remarks that are thrown her way from a certain group of people. She also notices Eli Westley, the new guy that moved to America from London. He has no clue what happened to her and is curious as to why he always catches people giving her looks of pity. With everyone knowing, it's no surprise that he soon finds out, but that only raises his curiosity. •~°~• ☆This story is fictional.

But it is a plant that once gave hope to people, and gave them the strength to move on, to live on. Oleander bloomed when no signs of possible life were seen, proving one can live in any environment if one is persistent enough. Her mother had told her the story of Oleander, the official plant of the Japanese city of Hiroshima; and now her mother wants her to bloom in the deserts of her homeland, away from her father and her old life. She wants her to bloom in unfamiliar surroundings, with people she barely knows that her mother calls family, and far away from everything she had ever known as home. With a broken-hearted mother, a faraway father and a confused identity, the Oleander has to struggle with more hardships and yet bloom.
