    THE DAY AFTER I MET YOU A Two-Part Psychological Romance Novel Genre: Slowburn BL / Psychological Drama / Slice-of-Life Tragedy Themes: Emotional Dependence, Memory Loss, Childhood Trauma, Identity Erosion Logline: What remains of love when the shared history that built it completely disappears? Synopsis: Book 1: The Day After I Met You (Zaique's Perspective) For twenty four year-old repeater student Zaique Liam, survival has always meant keeping his distance. After a catastrophic childhood accident claimed his parents and left him emotionally frozen, he mistook rigid order, predictable routines, and complete isolation for safety. Then, he met Nicolas Yin. Nicolas is everything Zaique is not-loud, socially effortlessly, warm, and constantly sacrificing his own energy to carry the emotional burdens of everyone on campus. Intrigued by the quiet space Zaique occupies, Nicolas invites himself into Zaique's structured world, gradually turning ordinary cafeteria lunches, train station walks, and quiet rooftop moments into a sacred, irreversible routine. But just as Zaique lowers his guard and realizes he is falling in love, he notices cracks beneath Nicolas's vibrant persona. What everyone assumes is simple student-council exhaustion is something far more terrifying. Book 1 ends on a devastating cliffhanger as Nicolas collapses, forcing Zaique to realize that the person who became his emotional home is slipping through his fingers. Book 2: The Day I Forgot You (Nicolas's Perspective & The Future) The story shifts entirely into Nicolas's mind, recontextualizing everything the reader thought they knew. Written through an unstable, fragmented narrative, the first fifteen chapters reveal that Nicolas was suffering from a progressive neurodegenerative memory disorder long before anyone noticed. He wasn't just tired; he was terrified. Every casual smile, every passed note, and every shared memory was a desperate attempt to anchor his dissolving mind to the one person who

    Rainaa Srivastava and Vaarin Mathur marry out of timing, pressure, and a shared sense of maturity, not love. Both are cautious, shaped by the marriages they've watched unravel, wary of how easily hurt can change people. The trauma runs far too deep to not live with it everyday, if not every second. A man who questions marriage, but chooses to stay. A woman who has seen its wreckage, yet still believes in its possibility. The marriage they enter is not built on certainty or passion, but on honesty, restraint, and the willingness to sit with discomfort. What unfolds is not a promise of forever, but the slow unearthing of trust, vulnerability, and a kind of love that is not demanded, only discovered.

    Some stories begin with "Once upon a time." Mine began with survival. I grew up in moving between homes, foster care, schools, and versions of myself I thought people needed me to be. Along the way, there was heartbreak, shame, grief, and choices I never imagined I'd make. But there was also laughter. Freshly baked bread at my Nan's house. Unexpected kindness. People who loved me without conditions. And the quiet, stubborn hope that life could become more than what happened to me. This is a story about trauma, resilience, and finding your way home-even if home is something you have to build yourself. Trigger warnings: discussions of childhood trauma, foster care, grief, mental health struggles, and adult themes.

    This collection is not just about what happened. It is about what remains. These poems move through the after, after silence, after rupture, after the moments that should have been safe but weren't. They trace the strange mathematics of survival: how the mind learns to function while the body remembers everything, how language fractures when it is forced to carry what was never meant to be spoken. At its core, this is a study of contradiction. Love that wounds. Family that shapes and distorts in the same breath. Memory that arrives uninvited and leaves no clean edges behind. Each poem is a record of what it means to grow around pain rather than past it, how identity is often not discovered, but constructed from what was endured. There is no single narrative here, because trauma does not move in straight lines. It loops, repeats, interrupts, rewrites itself. These pages reflect that instability: fragmented voices, shifting perspectives, and moments where language itself struggles to stay intact. Yet beneath everything, beneath the anger, the numbness, the questions that have no resolution, there is endurance. Not the kind that looks like strength from the outside, but the quieter kind: the act of continuing, even when continuity feels impossible. This is not closure. It is witnessing. A record of what it means to survive something that never fully leaves, and to keep speaking anyway.

    We have all heard the saying that nothing worth having comes easy, that no pain equals no gain, but my personal favourite is the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. Those quotes are always followed up with stories of people who fight against great odds, and still find a way to somehow rise above them. However, those tales only skirt our subconscious boundaries. They never truly touch on the depravity of humans, for most of those tales never venture into the dark. So what happens when one of those stories steps into the light? Park Min-joon must navigate the harsh realities of life while shouldering the burden of generational trauma. Driven by a fierce desperation, he fights his way from the forgotten slums of Korea to the packed stadiums in L.A. One lucky moment becomes the opportunity that can drag him out of a life very few people get to escape. Rose doesn't flinch from the darkness that clings to him, not because she's afraid but because she understands that survival has a cost and some people are forced to pay it in full. Can they rise above this impossible challenge to change the world? This is their story. I hope you follow along to see if love is something that survives greatness or if it's something that must be sacrificed to achieve it. Content and/or trigger warnings: This story contains scenes of violence, mentions of SA, substance and child abuse, which may be triggering for some readers.

    Slow burn alien drama that explores the story of mostly three main characters as they mature and change. There is romance, heart break, death. These are short stories written for colony 638 from my flyu universe. You're going to find mostly stories around XG5, XT5, and KK9. Not every story will take place on this specific colony in the Flyu Empire, but many will. If you're familiar with these characters, you'll want to start with the chapters marked under childhood and read that in order to get a more in-depth look at their upbringing. Things might be out of order. These are companion pieces to go along with the characters as they exist in interactive fiction (chatbot prompts or eventual visual novel) Originally I was going to post stories for many flyu here but decided to separate them based on planet so things don't get crowded. I'm writing from the understanding that the flyu world is the natural default world and earth will not be mentioned or if it is, it will be alien and strange to talk. The focus is on the flyu characters with occasional focus on humans as they exist in this universe.
