afgahnistan afganistan anger arranged beggar brother fight free hate history love marriage outside rules sister taliban

Imagine having so many rules you have to follow, it's hard to keep track of.  Imagine being ranked lower than a dog in society.  This is what life is like for 15-year-old Layla who live in Afghanistan under the rule of the Taliban.  Join her on her struggles through life and be with her when she goes through her fight for freedom.  Can she find a scrap of love in this new and hateful world?

WARNING: There is controversial material in this that I had not intended when I wrote this at a very young age.  Since then, I have learned more on the subjects and hope that one day I'll be able to re-edit this and change those conflicts.  I am eternally sorry if I offend you in this story.  It was not intentional.

NOTE:  I wrote this story in 2011.  It's kind of my baby because it was the first time I was ever excited about writing a real story.  It's not exactly in the greatest condition.  I hope to edit it at some point!
ALSO, I tried my best with the facts and the Afghan and Muslim culture.  Seeing as I am neither of these, it is impossible for me to represent them perfectly.  If anyone has suggestions or tips, they would be much appreciated!All Rights Reserved

Her Favorite Book(Rewrite) by Sunsetstyle6

This is a redone, more realistic, more detailed, more writing experienced version of "Her Favorite Book" I wrote that story in 2021, I'm pretty sure, and I was less experienced than I was compared to now. Looking back at the story, I realized I could have offended certain people with my depictions of the abuse in the Rosa household, as well as her relationship with Charlie, and how she seems to not care as much about him as an older sibling, especially a protective one, would act. All of these problems are going to be fixed and all the chapters will be edited. I would also like to make it clear, I might change a couple things in the book itself, like, for example, I'm changing Alex(Ryder's younger brother) into a little girl who only speaks Spanish, and her name is Allie. Also, Ryders household life before Stella(Why his mom works so much, why his dad isn't in his life, etc) will be written in more detail than before. If I offended anyone in the original version of this story, I deeply apologize. Now, to those certain people that like the original story, I won't be taking it down, as it was and still is a big growing opportunity for my writing career as of now.

limerence | COMPLETED by abbyklake

Where Layla, a seventeen-year-old high school student, must learn to come to terms with how Kai, who is new to town, looks exactly like the nameless boy she's had dreams of for years. [Young Adult/Teen Fiction & Romance] Layla's had dreams about the same guy since she can remember. It's probably just a cruel joke that life is playing on her. After all, with parents who basically forget she exists and with school constantly reminding her that she'll probably do pretty poorly in the real world, it really isn't out of the question. When the Lees move into town and she meets Kai, a boy who looks exactly like the one in her dreams, she doesn't quite know what to make of it. All she knows it that she's incredibly drawn to him and that it's very likely to do with her dreams. Right? But Kai doesn't know who she is because he's never seen her in his life before, and although he's the spitting image of the boy in Layla's dreams, they aren't the same person. But how can Layla not confuse the fictional boy she loves for the one standing in front of her when they look exactly alike? ---------- ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

NOTICE: Before the Morning is currently undergoing revisions! A sensitivity reader (someone who goes through your manuscript and assesses representations in your work) identified a number of issues surrounding the Filipino representation in BTM. I'm rewriting with the goal of creating a more authentic and respectful story. I'm sorry for the pain I caused by failing to include accurate Filipino culture and in having written from Nora's point of view.

"Goodbye Curly Head" by NUmaker

Through thick and thin the Law shall prevail. A new sense of purpose awaits us, children of light, in the land where it all began. The darkness in which we once cowered in fear, now curbed by the might of our endless light. Come, brothers, come, sisters. Let there be peace among the wicked, just as the Law dictates. Peace and certainty is all that you have ever longed for, little angel. A bright, stable future. A roof without holes above thy head. Acknowledgement and recognition of thy existence, feverish dreams of grandeur. Greed born from yearning, treacherous vines of rapacity taint your innocent soul. You seek a future that does not exist. Let thy fingers hold the fragile line between dream and nightmare. Let thy light navigate the path. Shall thee give in and falter, O' land of old, envelop his body in thy unending flame of chaos. Spit out nothing but an empty husk, the remnants of a smile once so bright. Shall thee prevail, O', Great Kazdel, I ask of you, the impossible - take mercy on the innocent. Don't let the radiance dim and don't let the mind turn bleak. Wake, young traveler. Bid thy farewells and burn thy bridges. It's time to say goodbye, curly head. Cross post from AO3. For a shorter and more on-point description, look no further! I had something silly written up before throwing it out in exchange for that wall of text upstairs. It's a little story "about a young, dumb sankta who's been dealt a bad hand at life, looking for his place in all this mess. The pointless search for a better future leads him far, far away from home, to a country forever ravaged by war and misery - Kazdel, the promised land where devils roam free and peace feels out of place." Anyway, it's quite lengthy, but hopefully enjoyable? Slide a comment if you want, I'll give you a tiny kiss on the forehead. Man, do I love comments. (Lastly, to point out, English is not my native language, but I don't think it'll be much of an issue ;3)

"Are you really going to talk to Abbu?" She asked being serious after some time and I nodded my head. "Yep. I can try, right? I know there is 0.1% chance of him agreeing with this but still I will have satisfaction that I have tried. I haven't just ran away like a coward. And running away is very big step." I said smiling lightly at her and she nodded her head. "But be ready to runaway cause that's the only option we'll be left with." She said nodding her head and I smiled. "Okay. I'll be ready. But will you really adjust in my life? I'm not rich like this. Your one room is my whole house." I said smiling at her and she smiled. "Richness is a prison. I don't want to live in prison.

Negina | ✔️ by xxbeyondmythoughtsxx

Arranged Marriage. It's what most Muslims go though, and Afghans are no exception. For Afghan's there is no such thing as 'love marriage'. Well, at least for most of them there isn't. Through generations parents have arranged marriages for their child with a close relative or friend, and the child has nothing left but to agree. Twenty-two year old Negina is left in the same situation. When her parents broke the news to her, Negina is devastated and all she wants to do is die. Dear reader, you've probably heard at least one person say negative things about themselves. Am I right? Well, Negina thinks the same way. She's not beautiful like all her cousins and sister. Impossible to even imagine what she went through in school. All the girls wore makeup and shorts with crop tops and high heels. But Negina's parents are against all of that. Only after graduating high school she was aloud to wear makeup. Shorts? Crop tops? "Never in a million years." Is always her parents answer. But now she's getting married to Khalid Malik. Negina has heard many stories about 'love after nikah' yet when she meets her fiancé for the first time she's more than surprised to see his reaction, and the circumstances she has to live with may be unbearable. ||7/28/18 ~ #25 in #spiritual||
