"Wait.. am I seriously falling for her?" -Unknown


••••

Hi, my name is Maya Cooper, you might know my dad, Harris Cooper. Who he is or what he does is not important right now. What is, is the fact that I'm doing my senior year at a new school. In Chicago.

I'm a timid girl, afraid to speak up. 
But be aware.. take a step back when I do.

Yes my father was unreligious when he married my mom. If he still is unreligious, you may ask? You'll have to find that out throughout the story. 

I barely have any family left. Dad's side doesn't want anything to do with us and we only have my uncle Saïd from my mother's side.

I'm not complaining though, I've seen people turn on their own blood. 

Choose your own family..

••

Hi, I'm Max. I was born in an unstable home, 18 years ago. My mom was a drug addict. Emphasis on 'was'. She's not anymore, not since my father left. 

Sorry, stepfather. Yup I only found out recently that the guy who raised me, never was my real father. My mother lied to me for over 18 years. How I found out? I'll tell you that later. 

The important thing right now is confronting the jerk that left me with someone who could never be a real father figure. 

Someone who made sure I, like him, was destined for hell. 

Sigh. 

Let's began, shall we.

Healing between the lines .. <3 by Imaan2009
20 parts Ongoing
Imaan never imagined that love could be this complicated. It wasn't supposed to be this way. Growing up, she had always been told that love would come when it was meant to, that it would be simple and pure-guided by faith, respect, and the traditions of her Pakistani roots. But now, sitting in her room late at night, watching the soft glow of her phone screen, she wondered if she was meant to just follow the path laid out for her, or if there was more to love than what she'd been taught. It had started when she met Rayan again after all those years. They had known each other since middle school, but it was only now, in high school, that something shifted. He wasn't just the guy she'd seen in passing anymore. He was someone who made her feel seen, heard, and respected in ways she hadn't even known she needed. But there was a problem. Her heart was still tied to the past-the scars of a relationship that had torn her apart. Aayan. She had loved him with all her heart, only to find out that he had been unfaithful. He had broken her trust, and with it, the possibility of ever believing in love again. Now, with Rayan, she faced a new kind of fear. Could she trust him? Could she let herself fall in love again? Or would her past repeat itself? As Imaan lay awake that night, the answer was clear. The fear of getting hurt was too great. But deep inside, something whispered: Maybe love is worth the risk. (some dialogue is in urdu/hindi & punjabi)

BOOK 2!!! She was soaked. Her clothes, face, hair, everything was soaked from the rain and I just looked at her. She was breathing heavily but kept eye contact with me at all times. I could see through her shirt but I quickly regain focus. " Are you gonna let me in or not dude" she says biting her lip. As if she planned to come like this alone at night at my house. I pull her in the door by her arm slamming the door shut, reminding her why she came here.... Isaiah is 19 years old at his university. He plays soccer and one day, after a game, a group of girls approach him. As he was talking to them it didn't take him long to realize they were a grade higher than him. A stare. A stare is what caught his attention when he felt it from the back of the girls. There was a girl in the back who looked at him with such a disgusted look. He had never received this look before so he was puzzled. He then knew that she was gonna be a pain in his ass. That disgusted girl was Hani. She played volleyball and was extremely smart, but she was a very cold person so she had a small group of friends. When she encounters Isiah, she realizes he's the boy that had a traumatic altercation with her little brother. She wants nothing to do with him and only feels disgusted.... Yet they keep meeting? As their rivalry grows something else does too? Attraction? Kinks?... love?

#4 in highschoollovestory on 11/2/2020 ****This book starts off with the present time of a wedding and reveals a hidden love story**** Now, going to be married, Sairah reminisces about her past love story. Sairah's a hijabi... and life as a hijabi isn't easy at Kendale High School. Sairah is witty, sarcastic, modest and beautiful. She receives looks of admiration, and hatred because of her loyalty to her religion. However, one day someone takes things too far... Ahmed, the new kid was also Muslim and had just moved to LA. He's bold, charming, egoistic, handsome, and sometimes gets a little too in over his head. However, when Sairah's and his path clash insults are exchanged and so is flattery. Learn the eventual result of these two hot-headed Muslims and where life takes them... Both start off with a rather teasing and sarcastic friendship, but time leads them into something more-- something beautiful. ************************************************************************************************ "Now? Now I have to deal with you throwing all your hard work for a girl! A girl Ahmed! A girl!" He emphasizes 'girl' with annoyance and disappointment. I clench my jaw getting heated. "Dad she is NOT some girl okay! I love her and she loves me! She is more than just some girl!" I soften my tone, "dad I love her okay and I'm not leaving NYU because of her. I'm not even thinking about NYU for her. And for our future together." I try to reason with my dad who is shaking his head in disbelief. "Ahmed I know you care about her okay. There's nothing wrong with falling in love-- unless she's taking you away from your life plan!" My dad explains visibly frustrated. "Dad, it was never my life plan to begin with. It was yours!" I run a hand through my hair. ************************************************************************************************ ALSO, THIS STORY IS A TAD RELIGIOUS BUT IT IS FICTIONAL

''I want you out of my life! I don't want to fucking see you!'' His voice got louder. ''Then I'll do what you want!'' I stutter trying to walk away from him, but before I got to do that he pushes me against the wall again. He lifts my chin up and looks straight into my eyes. ''But my heart doesn't want the same thing.'' He says underneath his breath before he crashes his lips into mine. Matthew Bayaroads, 28, is one of the richest people in America. He has everything, Money, Cars, Houses and much more that people dream of having. Every woman wants to be with him and every man wants to be him. Nawal Hassan, 22, is a poor Muslim woman who lives in a small village, but that doesn't mean she can let people look down on her. She's a strong woman who always talks back when she sees or hears something wrong. Matthew finds Nawal interesting due to her behavior, he knows she's not like every other woman. Day by day he finds himself stuck on her as Nawal is stuck on him too, but the problem is their love for each other is unacceptable.
