Penelope burrows herself in the shelter that is her mind; both figuratively and literally. It's come to be both a blessing and a curse.
Luuk is burdened by the demons that exists within his mind and has no way to overcome the darkness that's overtaking him.
Two internalizers in their own right come together when Luuk suddenly transfers to Penelope's school on a foreign exchange program.
Penelope: sarcastic, quiet, studious, and severely misunderstood, bonds with Luuk: a Dutch, artistic, reserved, mysterious foreigner, through a series of random chance encounters.  
As the two begin to learn the puzzle that is love for the very first time maybe they'll also learn to live, and enjoy life, and remove themselves from the abyss that is the human mind.

If It Ain't Love, Then I Don't Know What Is by Derelius
5 parts Ongoing
Senior high school was probably one of the best moments in life, at least for certain folks. We learn the meaning of life from those periods. It only happens 3 years for the majority of people. But the moments still linger on our mind. Parties, school events, board games, clubs, extracurricular activities, part-time jobs, driving... basketball, soccer, volleyball, cheerleaders, panties, etc-etc! You name it~ Although there are many differences across nations, one thing is familiar and identical: Senior high school is probably where we learn the most-not only academically but also in empathy... in love. This story is based on an Indonesian High School, where a male teen discovers a new perspective on affection. *Notes - Sorry for my basic, amateurish English and story telling. I'll do my best to improve. Peace.
