The local cafe down the street has always been a safe haven for twenty-one year old Roxie Wilson, as well as many others. One day, however, Roxie encounters two enigmas in the cafe -- Mikey, the boy in the back corner table who cries everyday with a pencil in one hand and a journal in the other, and Meera, the sour waitress who seems to be stitched together with bitterness. When the three of them take a step towards each other, it is discovered that they all have one thing in common -- they are all looking for shelter from the storm called "Life." As the storm grows worse, the three grow closer together and learn to build shelters for one another, working to face the storm together.All Rights Reserved

Portraits of You and I by jim3pie

Emma is a guarded, strong-willed barista who has built high walls around her heart to keep the pain of her past at bay. Cold and distant, she's vowed never to let anyone get close again. But everything changes when she meets Aiden-a warm-hearted, sweet-natured artist with a love for painting and an unshakeable belief in the power of love. Their worlds intertwine in the cozy corners of a quaint café, where Aiden's gentle persistence and infectious optimism start to melt Emma's icy facade. As a slow-burn romance begins to blossom, Emma finds herself drawn to Aiden's kindness, his art, and his unwavering faith in love, even as the shadows of her past threaten to pull her away. Through moments of tension, humor, and heartfelt confessions, Emma and Aiden embark on a journey of healing, trust, and love. Together, they discover that love isn't just a fleeting feeling but a powerful force that can heal old wounds. And when a beautiful daughter joins their family, Emma learns that true love isn't about perfection but about commitment, shared dreams, and growing together. Portrait of You and I is a touching romance about breaking down walls, rediscovering trust, and how love-once let in-can transform even the most guarded hearts.

A second. So many things could happen in a mere, fleeting second. But what if a second was all it took. For her, all it took was a simple second, and her life came crashing down in flames.

Her mind was set, she was determined to fix everything. But was fixing everything worth destroying herself, and everyone, in the process?

Chances Of Truth ☑️ by zZohana3

"It's too much to remember everything and everyone, all pain and hurt is killing me day by day little by little. I wish I could remove all the pain and move on in my life. I wish I could find an eraser or Better a delete button, so that I could start from beginning, without any misery or pain." ......................................................................................... "Hey Eva, you know you can trust me, right? " He asked me again cupping my cheeks, I can't let him continue this. It had to stop now or it would be too late. I can't risk everyone's life specially his. If hurting him means, him being alive then I would do it without thinking. Again and again. "Eva are you even listening to me?" Noah asked moving his face closer. From this close I can even see the scar which he told me about, its just below the border line of his hair, it can be easily conceal but from this close its more real. His eyes, they are magical. I would love to look at them all the time and never get tired of looking at in them. No, I cannot do this to him, I can't be selfish, I have to do something this time. "No" I answer and walked away from him. .............................................................

Four years ago, a 13-year-old blackmailed me into friendship by holding my doughnut captive. We've been close ever since. I soon noticed that I wanted to be more than just friends. I was in love with my best friend. But sadly, he didn't feel the same way. I thought my world was over. I was crushed. But to my utmost yet most delighted surprise, I just happened to fall into the arms of a certain bad boy. Literally. He didn't just save me from what could've been a hell of a concussion that night. He saved my heart too. But hey, let's not get in over our heads now. It wasn't that easy. Not even close. After all, when two opposing worlds clash for the very first time, we can't just expect it to be all rainbows and sunshine. Now, do we?
