Phoenix in the Woods by yinmanlau
10 parts Ongoing
In the quiet town of Havenbrook, Oregon, two teenagers from vastly different worlds find solace in secrets they cannot share with anyone else. Lila Marquez, a quiet Latin American artist, channels her struggles with family expectations and her mother's abandonment into illegal phoenix murals painted on abandoned barns. Eliot Reed, a Black new student from Chicago, hides his grief over his father's death in poetry, fearing that in this small town, his athletic talent will become his only defining trait. Their connection ignites the moment Eliot stumbles upon Lila's secret artwork in the woods. Bonding over art and poetry at the local café, they begin a tentative relationship-only to face immediate challenges: Lila's abuela opposes her dating someone from a different cultural background, Eliot encounters subtle discrimination in the town, and both face pressure from their respective peer groups. As their relationship deepens, they confront a town crisis that threatens the things each holds dear: art for Lila, and track for Eliot. When a tornado devastates Havenbrook, Eliot's act of bravery finally bridges the cultural gap with Lila's family, proving that overcoming differences does not require erasing them. Phoenix in the Woods is a touching story of the courage to love across cultural divides and the healing power of art. It follows two teens as they learn that rising from adversity-like the phoenix Lila paints-requires embracing both their roots and their wings.

"The lights flashed in my eyes. They were too bright, my eyes went black. Then there was a deafening crash. "Rebecca!" My dad cried, then nothing. I woke up soaked in sweat. My whole body ached from memory of the nightmare. I checked the time on my phone. 4:27am Wow, it was late for me. Almost 6 hours. I groaned, rolling over and turning on the lamp. I slid on shorts over my underwear and pulled sneakers over my feet. I sighed, remembering it was cold. But I didn't care and kept going, slamming the door shut behind me. My mom likely wasn't home to be woken by it. " Perfect Rebecca Birch became somebody else after the accident. She was long lost in the eyes of those around her. Except for Will, he knew Becca was still in there somewhere.
