Workaholics Stories

Living and existing are two completely different things. And when two people so opposite meet, the collision is inevitable. One wants to live. Truly live. Sunshine in their veins, vibrant skies in their eyes, hope sparkling at the corners of every glance. The other drifts through life like a shadow. Not caring, not wanting, just enduring, waiting for the day it all ends. Dark luminous clouds cling to him, eyes heavy with past regrets, memories broken and scattered. Hopelessness drips from him like rain. Will they find each other, two halves finally converging after years of longing? Can light and darkness coexist, healing and illuminating one another? Or will their clash consume them, leaving only ashes of the people they once were?

21:29 o 'di kaya'y ika-siyam at dalawampu't siyam ng gabi, para sa iba ay simpleng oras lang yan. Oras na para magsimulang manood o magpahinga. Pero kina Timery at Marty? Wala sa bokabolaryo nila 'yan. Para sa kanila, nasa kalagitnaan palang sila ng araw para isubsob ang kanilang sarili sa trabaho. Hihintayin pa yata nilang ibugaw sila ng kani-kaniyang pamilya para man lang magkanobyo at nobya bago pa man umalis ang kanilang edad sa kalendaryo. What would happen if the two workaholic freaks met at their favorite concert? Is the time 21:29 still a normal time for them that night, or is it the time of their love?

"Then I'll just put my mark on you, Katherine" his hands went in her hair as his eyes searched hers.

She thought she knew who she was. She was wrong. Some mistakes spend seven years becoming a rivalry. When her twin sister Darya calls at six in the morning with a fever and an eleven-page password-protected document, Sara Amiri agrees to do exactly one thing: show up to a black-tie gala in Miami, accept an award under the wrong name, and make sure Dr. Ira Bared - Darya's most infuriating professional rival - sees her accept it. One night. One name tag. One dress that isn't hers. What could go wrong. The man Sara spent the evening pretending not to notice is the same man she kissed at a Stanford party seven years ago and never saw again. The same man whose backpack she accidentally took. The same man who went looking for her afterward, found Darya instead, and built an entire rivalry out of the misunderstanding. He figured out she wasn't Darya before she even finished the acceptance speech. He said nothing. He bought her iridescent green flip flops at a CVS at one in the morning, walked her to the water, and asked about her work - not Darya's work. Hers. Sara Amiri does not do this. She reads. She travels. She works until there is no more work and then finds more. She had a fiancé once and let him go because she knew, somewhere she wouldn't look at directly, what it felt like to want someone to stay. She just didn't expect to find him at her sister's gala. Wearing her sister's name. No Itinerary is a slow burn romance about mistaken identity, a rivalry built on a miscommunication, and two people who almost happened once - and have been circling each other ever since. For readers who love the wit of Pride and Prejudice, the emotional precision of Emily Henry, and the kind of love story that tastes like sake at midnight and smells like salt air.

Hve you ever felt like second place to something else: maybe a parent is too busy working, a friend too occupied, a lover not as interested as they used to be, or even to your own obligations and desires? This is a poem about feeling undervalued.

This is a compilation of various one shots and short chapters of the many Magi charecters loving you, yes you and the ships I like or that are Requested. Requests will be taken, and for the most part it will be fluff with the occasional 'fun stuff' if I made it without the request.

In the summer of 1967, the lives of two people were at stake; they were gone missing....and the House of Adeliede was sold by a grief-stricken family. More than 60 years later, the mystery reappears to a person who doesn't know anything about it; an eccentric billionaire who lives with his practical sister. Together, him and sister and nephew must solve the missing puzzle piece; what DID happen that night in the house? Why were there so many secrets? What was the conspiracy behind the whole thing? (It's a two-era novella; past and present. Check the years!) A short novella by MousseTheLynx. EDIT: This novel is currently on hold and the chapters will be edited by the summer. Thank you for your patience, and hopefully it will be worth it. I'm going to be taking down chapters, and I'm very sorry about it.
