MAYA'S LAW JOURNAL (MLJ). Status: Ongoing / Pending Updates Genre: Young Adult / Romance Languages: English, Malay Tropes: Slowburn, Law Baddie x Engineering Nerd, He's her first but she's his next, Retroactive Jealousy ----------------------- -Maya Amanda- A brilliant, hyper-disciplined, and fiery Axiata scholar studying foundation law. She protects herself with academic pressure and a fiercely organized routine, yet harbors a deeply romantic, stubborn heart that secretly craves to be chosen and loved. -Idrees Herman- An engineering student who is exceptionally rational, methodical, and effortlessly charismatic. He uses logic as a shield, hates the messy overlap of romance and academics, and views himself as highly independent, yet remains deeply sentimental beneath his nonchalant exterior. What starts as a delicate contrast between the chaotic intensity of a law student and the steady precision of an engineering nerd soon evolves into something much deeper. From late-night "field notes" documenting the shift in their gravity to stolen campus moments and the quiet friction of two different minds trying to find a shared rhythm, this journal tracks a connection that felt entirely real. ----------------------- # Author's Notes: This is a collection of fragments from a failed project-a story I initially started working on for a certain someone, before things completely went downhill between the two of us. Consider this a raw retelling of real events, mapping out the moments, the memories, and the shifting tides that occurred between August 2025 and January 2026. Because life intervened and a chapter closed abruptly, the story stops halfway. It ends on a permanent cliffhanger, and future updates are currently pending. I'm leaving these pages open for anyone to read. It is unfinished, it is real, and it is a piece of a past I am finally letting go of. Anyhow, I hope you find something to connect with inside these pages. Enjoy the reading! -LD
