Cherish The Moments We Had Together
Cherish The Moments We Had Together A Story of Second Chances and New Beginnings When Ethan Collins is uprooted from everything familiar-his hometown, his friends, his girlfriend-and transplanted to Westwood in the middle of junior year, he's convinced his life is over. Armed with bitter resentment and a long-distance relationship he's determined to maintain, he arrives at Westwood High expecting nothing but misery. What he finds instead is a world that refuses to let him wallow. There's Andy, the effortlessly charismatic athlete who won't take no for an answer. Dayna Prescott, the mysterious "Westwood royalty" who seems to have her own agenda. And a cast of characters who all seem to know who he is before he's even introduced himself-courtesy of his surgeon mother's growing legend and his lawyer father's rising star. Ethan doesn't want a fresh start. He wants his old life back. But as boxes get unpacked and unfamiliar hallways become navigable, he begins to realize that maybe-just maybe-being forced to rebuild isn't the end of his story. It might be the beginning of something he never knew he needed. This is a story about the messy reality of starting over. About the guilt of moving forward when part of you wants to stay stuck. About discovering that sometimes the worst thing that can happen to you opens the door to the best thing you never saw coming. Not every ending is an ending. Sometimes it's just an uncomfortable new chapter. Disclaimer: This work is a completely original piece of fiction.

Autumn Lake thought she could have anything she wanted. Despite her father's wealth, there were three things she could never get with money; love, freedom, and friendship. She had never experienced such things. She had always wondered how they felt, for she never felt loved by anyone; not even her own father. She had no one to socialize with other than her maids and her father's coworkers and prestigious clients, because of her father's imprisonment. The only things that she usually did in her spare time were reading novels and countless encyclopedias, which left her to wonder how good and generous the world was. That was until she went to college. Everything she imagined how the world outside would be went topsy-turvy. CREDITS: Cover by: Andini OktaraniComplete
When I Met You {English}
"You disappoint me... What do you even see in him?" "Aren't you tired of this already?! If you want to pick a fight, fight me, not him. Got it??" What he did enraged me so much that I threw my hardest punch at his face, forcing his head to snap to the side. "If you ever touch him again--" before I could finish my sentence, he grabbed my arm and slammed me against the wall. "If I touch him again, what?!" he shouted, his face inches from mine, as I trembled with rage. "Got a big crush on the kid, huh?!" he exploded, and I could feel the weight of everyone's eyes on us. ~~ Have you ever wondered how different your life would be if you changed just the smallest of your actions? Because that's what I do. I wonder how my life would be now if I hadn't made that tiny mistake in the schoolyard. Everything started then. When I met you, twelve years ago...
