#WINNER OF WATTPAD INDIA AWARDS 2021 (MATTERS OF HEART CATEGORY) Veritas is one of the big players in journalism- legacy, history, hard hitting journalists and writers. A family of truth tellers. Anita was born into the same family; raised on facts and logic. And she is aware- a news story needs both. Anita is an ambitious, intelligent journalist- she's keen on maintaining her father's heritage while also creating her own space. Her professors think she's meant to be one of the greats. But too much ego- isn't good thing at 21. And life has a lot to teach you at 21, Anita learns. An accident temporarily cripples her and sends her for "rest and recovery" to England. But Anita is too restless to rest. What ensues- is a troubling twenties cocktail- she falls in love. Its' reckless, its' passionate - and most importantly conceals the truth. Truth telling, no more. When a house of cards falls down- nothing remains. Can Anita find it in herself to build a world of her own when things fall apart? Or will she bow down like many before her? What does it mean for a woman to have a world of her own? And can the modern woman truly have it all? The story that didn't make it to the headlines. ( 59,000 WORDS )

Chance Taylor really wishes his life would slow down. He's tired of moving. Noah Brennan really needs a change. He's been stuck in the same town his whole life, which he loves and hates at the same time. When Chance moves to yet another new town, he expects it to turn out the same way it always has-hiding from people, refusing to make connections with anyone or anything, not unpacking his stuff because he knows he probably won't be there longer than a year. But on his first night there, he quite literally bumps into a boy named Noah, and they quickly become friends. But with Noah's growing instability and Chance's inexperience with friendship, will it last?

This story starts with Nicolas Pearson moving to a new school. This story will move on into him meeting Thomas Weiss, a "straight as a pole" and popular football jock who doesn't care about his existence, and developing a big time crush on him. Then, he'll find out he has a class with him and by destiny they'll have to partner up and work together for a project. Thomas will hate Nicolas after finding out he's gay but after spending some time with him, he'll magically fall for him and they fight some more because well, Tommy doesn't want to be "out" yet but they'll get over it and eventually be the best gay couple in the campus and they live happily ever after. Yup, that's Cliché Beginnings or should I say, how it should be; only instead, Thomas Weiss is the popular gay jock who'd set his eyes on the new straight kid, Nicolas Pearson.
