"You're getting adopted"

Those very words shook Fatima's inner core and she wondered just what was happening to her normal and peaceful life. 

***

Fatima Mahmood was your ordinary Muslim girl living in a Canada. She had a small family that only consisted of her father, mother, and a brother on-the-way, she went to the local Muslim private school, and she was happy. That all changed when she lost her parents in a car accident. 

Soon she found herself kicked out of the only home she's ever known and placed in an orphanage. She didn't expect anyone to adopt her when there were so many other younger and more religious compatible kids running around. So imagine her shock when she gets adopted by a Christian family.

Follow Fatima in her struggle to live with her new family, where she understands the meaning of friendship, love and family beyond blood relations.

Thanks to the Whelms Family by TaylorAnnGunterman

(I am about to undergo major edits on the entire story soon. I wrote this when I was 13, and since it is my first story, I owe it the proper creation it deserves. Thank you for your patience, and I hope you will enjoy!) Samantha, Sam, Peers - a 13 year old girl who grew up with an abusive father who hits her every time she talked or laughed. So Sam just stopped saying anything, but when she accidentally bumped into her father he her beat again. Now Sam flinches at every sudden move, waits until everyone is out of the class room to leave for her next class, she walks so she doesn't have to sit next to anybody on the bus, and if you say her name she puts her hands over head in attempt to block out the world. So when she comes to school for the fifth time looking all beat up with a swollen lip and a bruised cheek the principal calls the authorities. Sam's father gets put into jail while she has to stay at the police station until they can figure out what to do with her. Because of how she was treated Sam can't stay at a foster home and because she is so scared of people she can't go through the adoption process. But when a lawyer hears of her situation from a friend who's police officer he wants to help this young girl realize that not every person is like her father and that its ok to have fun and be a kid. So him and his family take Sam in to show her that she doesn't have to hide her voice or lock herself away from the world. And with the help of his wife and four sons they just might get her to open up to them. Sam might think that if she makes any noise or even one mistake she'll get punished but the Whelms family is here to prove her wrong.

The Unknown Truth by Salwa786

10 years ago "I would never forgive you for what you have done to me today. It's perfectly fine to be a loner than have someone like you by my side. I never imagined in my worse nightmares that you would do this to me." "Look Layla I can explain." Fatima tries to justify her actions. "No there is nothing that you can justify. Especially when my parents already kicked me out of the house without even listening to me. They believed you over me. Listen to me I will never forgive you ever." ___________________________________ Layla was an innocent girl who never thinks wrong for others. She is sweet and kind but something happens which changes her life and she never ever looks back again. She stops trusting people and has nobody to share her sorrows with until she meets Azaan Ahmed and starts trusting him again but she remains scared that one day he will also break her trust. ⚠️ I am not perfect and I will have grammar errors so please bare with me I'm sorry in advance. Start : July 2022 Ended: April 2023

Broken by ShirleyVixtoria

"Can I take you home?" Those usually the only words an orphan would want to hear when a person wants to adopt them right? Well, those exact words were never told to us. Well, niether of us in here actually. Our whole life is just in this torturous place you people would call an orphanage is just the nightmare everyone gets here every night. But, just until this person comes up from somewhere. Just wanting to adopt. Some kids from the orphanage say that she's one of a kind. That she is the reason that they're alive at this very moment. Some say that she's a lady who changed people's lives since she was in this place called "rehab." She came out of the blue and adopts one of us. We are Charlotte and McKenna Lovato, and welcome to our living misery.

strong brothers by unknowismine2

guys I've decided to remake strong brothers 😉 about: (a boy named Avery, kidnapped at the age of 2. tortured, beaten, and even starved. for he was a weak boy who never experienced love. yet he called his abuser "father". for a 12 year old, he was an experienced survivor, worthy of freedom. his 6 brothers, desperately searching for him day and night. though he wouldn't know, for he was concealed under ground for over 10 years. there will be a day where he finds peace. there will be a day where he experienced true love. there will be a day where he is reunited with his family. at last. he will find a loving family. where one of his parent would never come back. supported by his eldest brother. ace.) okay guys idk what just happened in the description lol. but I promise I won't type like this in the actual story.

Judging Me - Completed by author_raazdar

"Well, well, look who's over here," spoke a voice full of venom. "What do you want, Samantha?" asked Syedah, boredly, her eyes still fixated onto the words on her book. ~~~ Syedah Muhammad is a Muslim girl, victim to societies stereotypes. However, this girl is determined, determined to change their views even if it means to get bullied by the one and the only and knock some sense into her. Samantha D'Bleu was once a very kind girl but past difficulties and problems changed her for the worse. In her heart, held only love for her family. She had vowed to make the lives miserable of those who made her go through hell even if it means to hurt those who are innocent. ~~~ These characters are all fantasy. They do not target or represent anyone. If you feel they do in any way, it is just coincidental. I will not tolerate anyone stealing my work for any reason whatsoever. I have put a lot of effort in writing this book. If this book does seem to go along the lines of another book you have read, i assure that this book was not meant to be a copy and was written through pure imagination. Thank you for understanding. ~~~ I will try to update AT LEAST once a month. ~~~ BEWARE: UNDER MAJOR EDITING!!!

When she finds out that someone is following her and wants to see her fairytale ending go up in flames, will she rely on those around her or handle it herself as she has had to do her whole life?

Caiden Evens isn't normal. by elliethefryingpan

"You're so fucking insufferable Nathanael" He lets out a deep chuckle that sends tingles down my back. "That's hilarious coming from you." "What is your fucking problem with me?" I ask slightly pissed off but mostly confused. "What's my problem with you? You're a hotheaded, loudmouth, annoying prick." He steps closer to me with every word. "Yeah, well you're just a condescending, egotistical, full of yourself, little bitch." He walks so close he's between my legs as I'm still seated on the counter, and the distance between us is all I can think about. "I hate you so much Evens." He breathes out, the warmness of his breath fanning over my lips. "The feeling's mutual, Rivers." Our eyes never break contact, and a suffocating silence takes over the little distance between us. His eyes flick down to my lips and then back up to my eyes. Before I can speak his hands grab my waist and pull me closer to him. A soft gasp leaves my lips but it's silenced when his mouth crashes onto mine and without a second thought I kiss him back. ~~~~~ Caiden Evens isn't normal, he's been in the foster care system since he was three, he has no idea of how he ended up there but after more than 20 different placements over his life he's stopped hoping that his real family might be out there. That is until his current foster father moves him across the country and into a school where he meets two strangers who look abnormally like him. What happens when he meets his father after 14 years who he always believed gave him up. Add to that three extra brothers and their arrogant bestfriend who won't seem to leave Caiden alone. All while trying to hide the constant abuse he's put through at home, will he ever find a true family? ~ I know the blurbs pretty shitty but this is my first book so I promise it will get better [DISCONTINUED]

Project Muslimah [COMPLETED] by NiqabiUndercover

Islam. Only one word, but more than twenty percent of the population. At least one fifth of this whole entire world is Muslim. But yet there are some who don't know anything about them, despite being a Muslim themselves. Among these people is an Afghan Muslim girl whose name is Amarah Sahar. She is seventeen years old, a senior in high school. She was born and raised in Canada with an Afghan background. Amarah has lived her life thinking that life is all about people not religion. She's never even wondered what the word Allah meant until she met the man who mistakenly changes her life. She wasn't snobby, she wasn't a girly-girl and neither was she a good girl. She was the most popular girl in school. She was lazy, immensely dense and had incredibly bad habits . But with that she was also funny, teasing and loud. No one ever saw her as a threat. She was an only child with parents that spent two-thirds of their life working and only one-third living with Amarah. They failed to educate Amarah and give her support. But when a 22 year old student teacher enters the school and sees Amarah's bad habits, he won't forget and neither will he forgive so easily for what she has done and what she continues doing. Out of all the people who cut her some slack, he isn't any of them. Will this Islam-loving, strict but sincere teacher ever show Amarah the true light of Islam?
