sequel to Liar Liar Jachary I stomped towards him deliberately. my fists clenched at my sides. I reeled back, uncurled one of my fists then, CRACK! my hand stung on impact. in a split second, he had me pushed against the counter, his hands gripping my wrists. "watch your hands, darlin" his jaw ticked as he ground out the words. "i-i can't believe you!" I seethed under my breath. "you've changed," he mumbled, his eyes raking over my body as he stood back up to his towering height. "of course, I've fucking changed, Avery! It's been six months- You've been gone for six fucking months! You left a note, you douchebag! And you're surprised I've changed." I let out what sounded like an incredulous laugh. started: january 13th, 2021 ended: August 19th, 2021

Power is an illusion-crafted, shaped, and imposed by those who understand its nature. It does not belong to the strongest or the loudest but to those who control perception. You believe you are free, that your choices are your own, but are they? Every thought, every desire, every fear has been influenced, shaped by unseen forces. This book is not a comfort. It will not reassure you. Instead, it will reveal what has been hidden-the mechanics of control, the psychology of manipulation, the subtle hands that guide your every move. The greatest trick of power is making you believe you were never controlled at all. Look around. The world is built on carefully designed illusions. Politics is not about governance but persuasion. Business is not about value but influence. Even love, friendship, and loyalty are bound by unspoken power dynamics. Every interaction is a game-some play it, others are played. The most skilled manipulators do not force decisions; they guide them. They do not impose their will; they make you believe it was your own. True influence is invisible, a whisper rather than a command. Fear, desire, guilt, admiration-these are the strings that pull at the human mind, and those who master them control everything. But this book is not just about them-it is about you. You have been shaped, controlled, deceived. And whether you realize it or not, you have done the same to others. Now the question is: will you remain blind, or will you learn to see? Welcome to "The Grand Illusion: The Art of Power, Manipulation, and Deception". The choice has always been yours... or so you've been led to believe.

Life itself has it's own opposite, it's either you're a good person or a bad person or you're full of positivity or you're full of negativity.

Sometimes human just got to try something or someone to see if they will like them and not judge.

No, if you haven't understood the message yet, I live in an abusive household. Now, you might ask if there are any questions the answer is yes. I'll give you some. 'Do I want to die?' Yes, I sometimes do. 'Do I feel alone in this world?' Yes, always. 'Do I get a beating every day?' Yes. *** This is Amara Williams, a 13 year-old with average grades and no friends.
