Her smile, her eyes, the dimples. Everything about her was perfect. I reached out to touch her, I didn't know her but there was a comforting feeling in her presence. You could just look at her and you knew you were going to be alright. 
     "Who are you?" I wanted to ask, but she just smiled and shook her head. Could she hear me? I wanted to know who she was. Was she real? Was she someone I invented? Just as I was about to reach her, she vanished. And just like that, I was alone. 

"Um, hi! I'm Laney, I just moved here from Texas. My family's been looking for a new start and it seems Manitou Spring Colorado was the place to be. New home, new school, new friends. I think I've finally found a place I belong."

After her dad pinned her moms death on her, little 6 year old cherish 's life changes. Is this change a good thing, or bad thing? "WHOO, that was awesome. I can't wait to do it again when I leave this place." I stare at her in shock. She turns around and smirks. "What, do you like what you see?" It takes me a minute to comprehend. When I realize what I'm doing I look away. I finally speak, "I'm sorry, I just didn't expect to see a person out here, better yet a train." She smirks, "What makes you think that you can be out here, but I can't?" she questions me. "I didn't mean it like that, I jus--" She cuts me off. "--Why are you out here?" She asks "I jus--" she cuts me off again. "--What makes you so special as to being the only what that can come out here?" she questions me again. "I didn't--" Once again, I am cut off. "--If you think that you're so special to be the only one here, then why am I also here standing right in front of you smiling while you look dumbfounded?" She smiles in victory. While my mouth hangs open at how she talks to a person that she doesn't even know. When I decided to speak not much came out my mouth, "Ummm" really, that's all I could say? She rolls her eyes. "The names Kat, I can tell you want to know so badly. Where are we anyways?" She raises her eyebrows at me. "HELLO!" she waves her hand in front of my face. "Oh yes, Hi Kat, my name's Cherish." She slowly circles me. "So, why are you out here in the middle of nowhere Cherish? And what's up with the bad hair dying job? Have you never dyed your hair before?"

Her brows furrowed. "You look like you have something specific you wanna ask me." The tips of Liam's ears turned red at Emma's very accurate observation. "I, uh... I usually just bullshit my way through projects, so I have no idea what the hell I'm doing." The corners of Emma's lips formed a small smile. Liam arched his brow. "What are you smiling at?" Her smile widened. "Nothing." Ever since Emma started going to Silver Creek High, she's been bullied over her discolored eyes. It all started when a boy brought attention to her in biology class one day, laughing at her and calling her a "freak" while the rest of the class laughed along with him. She never looked at him or saw his face; she just ran out of the room crying. She was now an outcast labeled as a freak and she wanted nothing more than to just disappear. She felt she had no purpose in life. Until her sophomore year when she fell in love with Liam, the guy every girl wanted; the guy every dude wanted to be. He had stolen her heart and she now wanted nothing more than to be with him. Unfortunately, Liam seemed to want nothing to do with Emma. He seemed to be straight up avoiding her. They never interacted for 3 whole years. That is, until now in their senior year, when they get paired up for a school project. The two must put their differences aside and try to work as a team. But as they spend more time together, feelings grow deeper, and secrets start to rise to the surface. Warning: Contains mature language, sex, and topics of bullying, sexual assault/harassment, self-harm, and suicide

I frowned, thrown off "Do i...remember?" "Do you remember..." she starts but her voice falters. She glances down at the sand, biting her lip debating whether to even continue. She then takes a shaky breath and finally looks up. Eyes locking with mine " do you even remember how you got it?" Her question hits me like a slap. I open my mouth, then close it, my brows furrowing as I force my brain to rewind. How did I get it? Nothing. Not a single clear memory. She steps closer, her voice trembling, but the edge of anger sharpening her words. "Or when? Or where? Or for what reason? Or what it even means?!" I flinch at her tone, but I can't answer her. I try. God, I try.. I look down at the sand beneath my feet, forcing myself to dig through every memory, every hazy night out, every stupid decision I might've made-but nothing. Not a single moment of how I got it surfaced. I let out a frustrated breath and rake a hand through my hair, feeling the panic rise like bile in my throat. When I finally lift my head to speak, Ashley's already staring at me, and I can tell-she knows my answer before I say a word. "You don't remember," she says softly, nodding like she expected it all along. __________________________________________ Crazy thing happened...Three years ago, a tragic accident left Ashley scarred and shattered. Aiden survived, but when he woke from a year-long coma, every memory of the girl he loved was gone. Now, Ashley clings to the hope he'll remember-But as time slips through her fingers, the question haunts her-will she lose him all over again? And Aiden... will he ever remember in time? ........ ⚠ warning ⚠ : Mature language, Mental health challenges, Annoying scenes, Heart breaking moments...

Dear Reader, "Nothing in this life lasts forever. Everything is temporary. Leaves that used to make us smile in the spring will soon fall down and we will forget that once, maybe long or maybe not a long time ago, we used to be happy. But this story isn't about what makes us sad. Because the winter will pass and we will see those spring leaves come alive again. And we will smile again. Just like we did many many times before. But then again, what is it about? Guess we'll have to figure it out together. Or I'll let you know once I'm back." She spent her life questioning her worth and her place in this world. Never knowing what to expect or what to hope for. Lost and confused, she wandered down the streets. They all looked the same. The streets, the buildings, parks, rivers, stations. They all looked the same. She was losing hope. She was losing everything. And then she woke up. Nowhere. To anyone, anywhere, any time. Written mostly in a form of diary, it's the story anyone can relate to. It sets no boundaries for age, race, religion or anything in between. The person in the story has no name or appearance. It's up to everyone's individual imagination. It can be you, your best friend, your neighbour or someone you've never met before. It's all up to the reader. This book shows that every single one of us is different. But we all have something in common. You're never alone. Or are you? Sincerely,
