"You know that I can't show you myself, give you all of me... But I still want you..."
In the middle ages, in a remote city in northern Italy, Matteo grew up in a family that didn't want him, never experienced the feeling of being loved and never learned how to love himself. The only thing that made him happy was his flowers, planting and taking care of them.
Serafina was a mysterious girl that started stealing the flowers from Matteo's garden. Matteo hated her at the beginning for doing that but his mind slowly changed. She had her own problems and that was why she stole them.
She started going to Matteo's garden everyday and he started waiting for her. Everyday.
Could this girl change the way he saw himself, and possibly love him?
This story is inspired by "La Città di Smeraldo" and the music "The Truth Untold" by BTS.

We Never Broke Up (A Second Chance Romance)
"So... what about us?" he asked, and I looked at him, a bit bewildered. "What?" I inquired. "You and me... what are we, Sera? You know how you affect me. You make me feel like I'm losing my mind, and I feel incomplete when you're not around. I yearn for your touch, your scent, and everything about you drives me wild," he admitted, his words close to my face. I let out a shaky breath as I felt a warmth spread through my body. "Thad, I think you're getting something wrong," I began, but he interrupted me. "No, you're the one refusing to admit that you're feeling the same way I am," he insisted, causing me to fall silent. He was right, I couldn't deny the feelings i had for him. They had always been there, but they had intensified with his return. ●●●●●●□□□●●□□□●●● In their final year of high school, Thaddeus and Sera epitomized the dream teen couple, envied by all.
