Amelia, after a stint with a punk band, feels as if life is an aimless road. Her world is crumbling apart, but so is everyone's. Right?
Antonio, a normal guy, works at the Asian specialty store, his mild manner makes him fit perfectly into a life full of sand dunes.
When will he teach Amelia that the establishment isn't real, that she has nothing to oppose.
"Establishment, you need to be significant to oppose it."
"But we are the establishment, of course we're significant!"
"Why are you trying to oppress something that you live comfortably under, anarchy is complete hell and you know it, live your life and have fun instead of dedicating your life to a cause that lost its shock factor decades ago."
"Punk is liberating, I feel as if I can be who I want to be, as if I'm part of a voice, the underdogs voice."
"Punk isn't powerful anymore, you think that you can beat order, something upheld since the birth of our ancestors by wearing a couple of studs and screaming into a microphone?"
Under the Sicilian sun, they work tirelessly and try to change each others world view.

For those who belong nowhere, those who walk the face of the earth on their own, carrying their hearts in their palms, holding everyone together while they dissolve into air. So many souls are homeless, may it be their home. May they find peace in knowing they are not alone, if not, at least they won't feel as stray as I once did. The word is haunted. Not by ghosts. By a maybe. By the soft echo of a woman who once lit his path out of darkness. A woman who no longer remembers his name... But who still lives inside every choice he makes. He was not made to follow the rules. He was made to make them. Where a match may light a room, A flame like him sets a whole world ablaze. In this story, Truth wears a mask, and order is just chaos in disguise. His world, at last, reveals its true face, when he sets it on fire.

"Please you have to remove this mask, stop making yourself hidden when you're handsome, Alex," Emelda said. "And who gave you the right to tell me what to do, all of you are all the same, "after removing this mask I would know your real intentions which I do not want. Chelsea said the same thing, and where is she right now?. I asked. "I am not the same, and if you're not going to remove the mask I would leave and never return". Emelda said and burst into an uncontrollable cry. I felt my heart shatter as I watch her shed tears for me. "Okay, I would remove it, but promise me you won't leave". I said to her feeling guilty for making her cry, I do hate seeing her cry. I love her but am afraid to say it. "I promise". she said as she moved closer to me. ❤❤ BERRY VOTE, COMMENT, FOLLOW AND SHARE! ©All right reserved📝Complete

Word Of Action!✔️
-I am not good at giving descriptions but please give my story a chance- "He was the calm and she was the storm." They always say, loving someone would turn your life upside down in a good way but I believed that it's the opposite of good, and guess what? I was right. Love was always out of my mind. I drink, eat, and breathe my work I'm the definition of work alcoholic it's the truth. Then one day when I entered this case I knew that it will let me get where I want but for the first time in my life I was wrong. I failed! Not in my work, I failed in my life and I think I deserve it. My dad always tried gaining control over me and I hated it. One day I became sick of my dad's controllers over me so I decided that no one other than me would be in control of my life. Since that day I took the remote control of my life, emotions, tears, future, work, and anything that would pop out in my mind. If you wonder what happens if I wasn't in control the answer is I don't know or let me say I didn't know! Till one day I lost the remote control and it ended up pretty bad! I don't fear love, I fear the idea of someone else having control over my heart & feelings because you never know if the person will cherish you and never break you, or maybe it's only me. I don't trust people it's a survival instinct. And me being a controlling freak over everything doesn't make it any better for me! Love is like a drug, when you have it you feel at the highest place in your life but when you lose it you'll feel miserable, that's what I learned from my story of love. If I lost Serkan I know that I'll break apart and never be the same because I love him so deeply, he's engraved in my heart. And like that when I married Serkan it was like signing a deal with the devil himself. The name of the story has a deep meaning you come to know in the story. ** The story is under editing **Complete

Saving Trevor
For once, in the world of books, it's not the damsel in distress- it's the damoiseau in distress. Thankfully, this one has his knight in shining armor waiting for him to come around. ••• "So, I have a proposal," Amelia announces. We sit on the tree stump, facing each other. The sun is in the middle of setting so there's a nice glow that casts on us. Amelia's green eyes are illuminated by the sun, and her skin practically glistens in the light making an emphasis on how perfect her skin actually is. The breeze whipping past makes me notice her hair is down and pin straight. She smiles expectantly at me and I snap out of the trance I'm caught in by her natural beauty. "Right," I clear my throat.
