This is essentially Crop Circle but rebooted into a coming of age and time-machined to somewhere in the really late 2000s. This book allows me the space to be the writer I am now. HoneyTree will look at the same cast and world through the eyes of teens WITHOUT the excessive drug trade and gun fighting, by narrating through Tatiana who is Qamari's little sister and mentioned a few in Crop Circle (see ch 20&23) and Romeo an additional main character. Crop Circle will still be up for those who love it I guess for the meantime.

She once told him that she'd only consider them if she found someone she could love, but even then, she wasn't really trying to search for that person. He knew it was dumb to try and make her see the beauty in those things because he could now only see them with her. I do not own any of the media content used within or associated with the story.
