Naina...A girl with an optimistic nature. She finds positivity in every bad thing, she is someone who wouldn't ever express her pain to anyone, not even to her own mother. She was a passionate Kathakali Dancer, she is unparalleled at studies, she is gracious by heart, timid and self-consciousness by brain because since childhood She was listening to only one word, and that was She has a excessively dusky skin complexion, and No guy would ever wish to love her body. She doesn't mind having toxic people around her, who instead of encouraging her for her exceptional merits, finds opportunities to taunt her for her darkish face colour. But sometimes She yearned to have an understanding partner or a friend, who would have understood her situation, and helped her to come out of the delusion that She isn't made to be loved, and she doesn't deserve to have high expectations from anyone. Her hope of receiving love from someone was dwindling each and every day, and The stinging comments thrown by her own folks about her inability to look beautiful was shattering her heart awfully. But there was someone, who used to admire her with only one wish to see her once in a lifetime genuinely delighted and confident. There was someone, who always loved her for her calibre and courteous nature. He never disliked her dull skin. But He knew he wasn't the appropriate guy with whom this girl could spend her whole life. He knew he wasn't qualified enough to be in her liking list, that is why He never summoned up courage to confess his love to her, to that girl whom He gifted his heart for lifetime. Will She ever accept that She isn't born to be hated by this judgemental society? Will she ever know the feelings of her one-sided lover? NOTE : The whole story is solely imagined and written by me, if you will dare to copy a single line or any scene from this book. Then don't forget I know how to make someone famous in just one night. :) Cover Credit - @_littlebitcrazy_

"I call this one pain. And this lil one right here under his wing is suffering." "No offense, but...who the hell would wanna be reminded of pain and Suffering? If I was going to get something etched into my skin forever, I'd want something that would bring me joy." His grin bemused her. As if he expected her to contradict his moral logic. "True that, shorty. And I agree, no doubt. But who's to say my birds don't bring me joy?" Dumbfounded, Jett lifted her eyes from the silhouetted birds up to meet his tender gaze, stumped on how to answer his question. She shrugged with one arm, "Do they?" * * * Jett Jaletta has enough of her own problems. Unreliable family members that depend on her for everything, too many bills with not enough income. And a federal probation sentence that's held her hostage for the past three years. The last thing she needs is the drama that comes along with a handsome face, drama that could jeopardize everything she's working for - a liberating dance career. But Roman Carter isn't liable for the damage caused by his blessed good genes. As a matter of fact, his alluring appearance and its effect on the opposite sex is the furthest on his list of priorities. The recent murder of his only brother has left him unfocused, indignant, and irrevocably heartbroken. Well, he is focused on one thing...retribution. BlackBiirds is the intertwining story of two characters-who's deepest pains and struggles happen to be caused by the other person. Ironically, surrounding situations, dangerous rivals, and even their own family members cause these two to become tangled in ways they can't escape from. * * * BLACKBiiRDS is the rewritten, reworked 2.0 version of its former draft: Souled Out.
