    Like water, soil, and sun, can you nurture me? Nasrin "Rin" Rivers grows things for a living. She's a broke twenty-four-year-old gardener raising her sick younger brother in a cramped apartment overflowing with plants, the only thing in her life she can control. Not her addict mother, not her father's absence, and definitely not the stack of bills growing faster than her plants. So when she wakes up half naked and hungover in a mansion she could never afford to walk past, she knows she's hit a new low. What she doesn't expect is the owner: Emiliano Valderrama, a stunning and infuriating Colombian heir with a reputation for being untouchable...and a clear memory of the night she can't remember. She thinks their chaotic encounter is over-until the next morning, when she learns the mansion belongs to the same man behind the high-paying gardening job she just applied for. Their accidental collision spirals into a sharp, intoxicating push-and-pull as Rin discovers the world behind his gates is full of secrets, obsessions, and dangers that bloom like nightshade. Caught between survival, family loyalty, and a man who terrifies her almost as much as he draws her in, Rin must decide whether Emiliano is just another beautiful poison, or something worth risking everything for. Rin knows how to handle dangerous growth. She can prune it, shape it, survive it. But Emiliano Valderrama? He's something she's never learned to control. And in his world, nothing is planted by chance.

    A while ago, I had a math assignment. For most people, it would've taken about 10 minutes. But I have ADHD. Most people consider ADHD to just mean "fidgety and hyper." It's not. I know so many people who are struggling so hard, and society just ignores us because it's inconvenient to try and figure us out. I did end up getting my assignment done. It took at least an hour of crying, a bit of self-harm, and I accidentally wrote a short story about neurodivergency, overworking, and masking differences and suffering in the process. This is that story. And yeah, this is Wattpad. You're probably here for romance or fanfiction. This is neither. But I figured, why not publish it? So here it is. Enjoy.

    N'a t-on pas tous marre de refaire les mêmes choses ? Se noyer dans la routine jusqu'à ne plus respirer ? Voici l'exemple d'un Monsieur Tout le Monde, sous le nom du personnage Sisyphe de la mythologie grecque, un homme connu pour pousser une grosse pierre à perpétuité le long d'une montagne au risque de s'affaiblir davantage, et au point de ne plus voir la beauté de la Vie... Bonne lecture ;)
