Selfworth Stories

Nora never wanted much. Just a steady home. Simple days. A life that held its shape. She didn't crave excitement or change. She only needed predictability. Her routines, her quiet, her small world. It was enough. She believed that if she kept everything perfectly still, the life she had built would hold. And for a long time, it did. But when the ground finally shifted under her feet, Nora didn't move with it. She froze in place, the way people do when they have no other direction to turn. Because where does a person go when they have nowhere to go? Warning: This story uses mature language and scenes. © IcecreamSundae5. All rights reserved.

Elia never expected to be noticed, especially not by Aiden, her best friend's tall, charming, too-good-to-be-true boyfriend. With her oversized glasses, quiet ways, and insecurities she carried like a second skin, Elia had always been the invisible girl in the corner. Until she wasn't. Until he started looking at her like she mattered. What began as stolen glances grew into a love that broke the rules and broke someone's heart. Elia thought she had won, but when Aiden's lies finally came to light, everything she believed in shattered. Now, in the wreckage of what used to be love, Elia is left with the hardest question of all. Was he ever worth losing herself for? This is not just a love story. It is a story of betrayal, regret, and the slow, quiet work of healing. A story of learning to walk away, not to chase someone else, but to finally return to herself. Because sometimes the bravest thing a girl can do is choose herself.

She Chose Her Name is a short, heartfelt story about a quiet, anxious young woman who falls deeply in love with a boy she once admired from afar. Their connection feels perfect at first-mutual crush, instant spark, shared dreams.

Surrounded by a society full of cheating, dishonesty, and people pretending to be someone they're not, she struggles to understand what real love should feel like. This story becomes her journey of courage-learning to walk away, learning to choose herself, and learning that independence is not a flaw, but a strength. It is a reflection of modern relationships, self-respect, and rising again after heartbreak.

Michael's humiliation turns to anger, and Jennifer becomes an unwilling internet sensation - "the Kiss Cam Girl." But when Michael admits he's embarrassed by who she is, Jennifer walks away, choosing self-respect over shame. As the world watches her rebuild her life, Jennifer learns that healing isn't a straight line - it's messy, public, and powerful. Her confidence grows, her career flourishes, and fate brings back the stranger from that fateful night, now revealed to be everything Michael never was. But Michael can't let go. His obsession spirals into chaos, forcing Jennifer to confront him - and herself - one final time. The Kiss Cam is a story about public heartbreak, private healing, and the quiet courage it takes to love again.

(Take note that the author (me) will upload a new poem every day for twelve consecutive days until 12 poems have been uploaded, indicating the completion of the poetry series/collection 'Twelve Letters') Synopsis: Twelve Letters is a collection of confessions, memories, and goodbyes written in the quiet of nights that feel too long. Each letter is a fragment of life-small, raw, and aching-capturing moments of love lost, words unsaid, and the weight of waiting for something that never comes. Some letters are to people who are gone, some to people who never knew, and some to the writer themselves, trying to make sense of a heart that keeps breaking. The collection doesn't try to fix anything. It just holds the sadness, the awkwardness, the fleeting happiness, and the tiny sparks of hope. Through these letters, the reader walks alongside someone learning to let go, to forgive, and slowly, maybe, to heal.

What if the hardest battles we fight are against doubts that were never truly ours? This isn't just a book, instead it's a quiet corner for reflection. A space to talk about the insecurities we carry, the ones that sneak into our hearts through comparison, culture, or the loud voices of social media telling us who to be. Here, we slow down and ask honest questions. Why do we feel "not enough" when standing next to someone else? Why does beauty seem measured by filters, or confidence by validation? And how can we unlearn all of that - gently, but surely? Insecurities and the Soft Art of Being Human is a growing collection of thoughts, reflections, and open conversations. It's not about perfection or pretending to have it all figured out. It's about exploring what it means to live, feel, and heal together. This space isn't about fixing yourself. It's about understanding yourself and realizing you were never broken to begin with. Welcome to a community that celebrates imperfection, courage, and kindness.
