Skyscrapers. Angry taxi horns. Shoving arms and tangled feet. A seemingly typical day in the city, as the most atypical girl swirled through the madness. Her eyes scanned the faces as they blurred past, and she waited impatiently for her cue. Her attention was on the ground, as it was usually children who gave it to her. After all, the younger people are, the more attuned they are to kindness. They haven't yet been brainwashed by the world to be cruel or selfishly inclined.

SMILE ✔︎
I would bet none of you have ever had that dream summer that all of us want.... that summer where you meet a boy on the beach and go surfing even though you don't know how to surf. That summer where you look him in the eyes while he runs his fingers through your hair. That summer where you skateboard along empty streets at sunset and accidentally steal candy from a grocery store. Well, I didn't get that, but I got pretty close to it. Because for the summer I went to an island in the middle of nowhere so my dad could start up a new one of his businesses in his chain of stores. I went to the beach. And I met Royce... Royce was two years older than me and had the prettiest purplish eyes and blonde hair. He was the most charismatic person I'd ever met. Then shortly after me and Royce's first appearance we met Jack and Koa. It was amazing and I loved every second of it, until I realized that I had fallen for Royce. And he seemed to fall for me too! Until another girl came into the mix 𖣔 "Do you hate me or not Royce?" "I wish I never fucking spoke to you because god I hate you so fucking much for making me love you! It's your fucking fault! Fuck you!" "And do you love her?!" "Way more than I will ever love you." #5 in unrequited 12-3-2020 #2 in tearjerker 3-14-2021 #8 in unrequitedlove 5-15-2021Complete
Her Wish
She was all alone now... Any previous traces of the outside world were temporarily pushed away as she entered her secret heaven, separate from everything and everyone else. Reclining slowly onto her back, crushing blades of grass beneath her, a faint sigh escaped from the eighteen year old girl’s heart-shaped lips. Gazing at the stars above and spending time alone, had over time, become her only escape of reality. This wide field of grass had become her home. The natural sounds of the crickets and the occasional hoot of an owl had become her neighbors, her friends. The tranquil flow of the river nearby, her music. And the far-off, scintillating stars, her hope. No matter how many things had gone wrong, how many times she had failed to do something, how many people had turned against her; the girl always had the option of crawling back to this secluded spot that none but her self knew of. Every time, she would crawl back here and wish upon the stars. And every night, she would wish for the same thing, over and over again. She’d wish for happiness. And she’d continue to wish, hoping that someday, someone, somewhere, would take the time to listen, that they would take the time to help make her wish come true. And one day, it did.Complete

Veilborn
In a world where loyalty is currency and silence is survival, Zoe struggles quietly to stay afloat. Beneath her gentle smiles and whispered apologies is a girl fighting not to disappear. She feels like a ghost in her own life-caught between who she's supposed to be and the nagging sense that something is deeply wrong. Whispers swirl through the city streets. Secrets hide around every corner. The people around her play games she doesn't fully understand-yet she's closer to them than she knows. Seventeen, maybe eighteen. Old enough to survive alone, young enough to feel the weight pressing her down. Most days, she drags herself through the motions: clock in. Get scolded. Scrape together rent. Repeat. Hope is scarce. Trust scarcer. Yet beneath her guarded silence, she still dreams. What keeps her going? A memory, faint but burning-her mother, who saw light where no one else did. Maybe it's spite. Maybe it's the aching need to break free from a cycle that's gnawed at her for as long as she can remember. Her world is messy, tangled with politics and secrets of powerful families-some connections she doesn't even realize yet. Some people are kind. Some are cruel. Some... far more than they seem. And Zoe? She's just trying to breathe, carving a sliver of space for herself, one defiant step at a time. Because if she stops, even for a moment... everything she's fought for could slip away. And no one will wait for her to rise again.
