I've Become Like Him
"Ahhh!!!" The man's body falls to the floor limp and I fall to the floor out of terror, "Why are you screaming? I saved you from being raped." I look at the man who is holding a gun with a little smile on his face. He holds the gun up to my head and I start crying, "P-Please, p-please don't do this. I-I won't tell anybody." He bends down and I whimper, "I don't think I can let you go. What happened you run and tell in the next three days? You've already seen my face and heard my voice." I shake my head, "I swear I won't tell anybody! I-I don't know anybody!" He looks at me up and down, "I'll give you two choices. I kill you now or you come with me. You can keep me entertained for a while." €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€ Lyric Dime is a twenty-one year old loner who works in a top tier casino.

Novah
Leaving behind the small, sun-soaked island of Jamaica, Novah-Lee Brown boarded her flight to Miami with a heart full of hope and a suitcase packed with more than just clothes. The weight of her past-memories of her mother's death and the suffocating shadows of grief-had followed her for years, pulling her deeper into herself. She craved a fresh start, a chance to breathe again, and she believed the vibrant streets of Florida's big city might offer the escape she desperately needed. But Miami wasn't the sanctuary she had envisioned. The city, with its endless motion and noise, overwhelmed her. She found herself navigating uncharted waters, caught between the chaos of her new environment and the lingering pain she'd tried to leave behind. Yet, even amidst the struggles, Novah-Lee couldn't help but wonder if, somewhere in this unfamiliar world, she might finally find the connection and love she'd been yearning for-a chance to begin again, not by forgetting her past, but by building something new. ****Editing, Changing plot and Characters***

my online buddy ✔︎
"I stared at her beautiful caramel skin, her glass skin. Even her freckles were smooth and soft. I'm not sure if other people would classify her as beautiful, but her large blueish gray eyes, the ones that held such intelligent and innocence and serenity, that is was impossible for me not to be held prisoner by them. Her cheekbones weren't high and defined, and her nose was a little too small to be considered perfect to other guys. However, her glorious features kept me captivated. Her lips weren't as I imagined them to be. I expected her to come with makeup on, maybe a little lip gloss, but they were coated with lip balm. I could smell it from here, the sweet scent of mango. She wore her natural hair, or at least I thought it was, and it was pulled into a high messy bun. There were curly baby hairs around her whole head. She wore diamond earrings. I expected her to be dressed up, since that's normally how I perceived girls to be, but she dressed comfortably. She wore a forest green sweatshirt, black tights, and brown Uggs. She might've been kinda creeped out by the way I was looking at her, but she was just so beautiful. She was my world."Complete
