I walked around the school's unfamiliar campus watching everybody move from building to building full of hope and excitement. Also, the few introverts who seem nervous surrounded by all the movements and people, not to forget the disappointed faces from those who did not get accepted.
My best friend, Bernice and I walked to the building we were asked to report to receive our letter of acceptance or rejection.
A few nervous minutes later, we were both pleased to find out that we were both accepted. On our next journey to life, one of many. Full of hope that we are on our way of being promising members of society.
If only we knew at this time.
If only we knew, the harsh reality of the real world.
•All that is valuable in human society depends upon the opportunity for development accorded the individual.

The Pack
Moving to Chicago, I never thought it would be like this. I never thought I would have the friends I have today, I never believed that I would be accepted into there pack. I always felt like an outsider and they didn't do anything to make me feel like I was welcomed either. I had to earn my way into there pack and I did, but I didn't do it alone. In a way each of them helped me, it may not seem like it but they did. We're all alike in different ways....we all have our inner issues that were dealing with and we all have done things were not proud of. But we help each other get through that shit, were there for each other when we feel like we have no one left, no one on our side. We accept each other, understand each other, flaws and all, we're a pack, a family, and just like every other family we fight. But at the end of the day we stand together and put our differences aside.Concluida
Disturb My Peace (Revising)
I adored the way love appeared on the big screen-two people destined to go to great lengths just to be together. Above all else, they bent the world to make space for their love. And yet, I never once asked why: if love is boundless, without constraint, why does it so often arrive as an interruption-demanding more than it can give? Maya says love recognizes no barriers. I take that as gratitude for those with genuine hearts and sound minds. As for me, if you must intrude, disturb my peace-not my time. I remember the first time you let my heart bleed. We were young, and I prayed to God to change your mind-but my life was just beginning. I told myself, if it's meant to be, it will find its way back to me. So I wiped my tears and continued on my way. But then I found you again. Maybe I should have turned the other way. Maybe I should have been harder, colder, wiser. But something in me stayed soft. And just maybe-you were the answer. So I stayed. And I pray that my love for you won't be the end of me.Concluida
Accepted
My works #12 //. Part One : All I've ever wanted was to be Accepted, rather by others close to me or even just my mom. Part Two : It's just some things in life that you have to learn to accept, whether it's disapproval from ones close to you, a person you thought you loved or a person you used to call a friend. • • • DiaTheLit™ ©2016 all copyrights reservedConcluida
No Love
"Love is probably one of the many things I can't and probably won't ever be able to explain. But what I can tell you is that it's not supposed to hurt and it doesn't hurt. It's the people you love and let in that hurt you. If what you call love is hurting you, then it ain't it. Love is kind. It doesn't dishonor others and it keeps no record of wrongs." "Do you love me? Like really love. If I was to say that I gave up on what we've built so far, would you still fight for us? Be honest. Or better yet do you see this as a temporary thing or are you really aiming for a lifelong commitment with me?"Concluida
The Guy I Could Never Have
Some people arrive quietly. No fireworks. No background music. Just a look. A name. A violet shirt in a white room. You don't realize it's the start. Not until you're too far in. I didn't fall for him the way stories say you should. There was no moment of knowing. Just a slow ache that built between library tables and half-finished coffee cups. The kind of love that feels like a question no one teaches you how to ask. We were never official. Never obvious. We were playlists. Eye contact. A sentence that almost sounded like confession-until it didn't. And somewhere in that space between almost and never, I became someone I didn't recognize. Someone quieter. Smaller. And then... someone who walked away. This is not a story about the guy I ended up with. This is about the one I couldn't have. The one who arrived too late. The one who taught me that not all love stories need a happy ending- Some just need a girl who finally chooses herself. And this time, I did.Concluida
Cynical Souls

This is the type of love you wish you found in high school but probably know way too well that it only exists as fiction. Today I'm turning my fiction to reality. ❣️•••❣️ Excerpt: Just as I was about to seek shelter under some building's roof, the tires of a car come to a halt, I wonder who might pity the lonely girl walking in the rain. The passenger window rolls down, and I spot the most unexpected person seated behind the wheel. "Get in" comes out his voice, and I must've stood there agape for a few moments because next comes his rhetorical question. "Are you getting in or continuing walking in the rain?" Eyebrows raised expectantly. He sounds annoyed, like he regrets his decision to ever stop and help me. ❣️•••❣️ #5 in cynical #2 in loveandfriendship #1 in opinionated #4 in ihatelife #10 in nerdgirl #10 in HighschoolRomance #26 in GoodGirlBadBoy *contains mature themes. *contains cursing.Concluida
Finally Meant (Book 5 of Series)
I made my way through the dark apartment and found the couch. What was going on at this hour that wouldn't allow me to sleep? Whatever it was it was intense, and I wasn't able to ignore it. The rain could be heard smacking into the concrete and against my window. I step out into my patio to watch it, nothing seems of the ordinary, or nothing I could piece together. I felt...sad in a way. This wasn't my sadness, my heart ached for someone else, but who? Why? I rubbed my chest, puzzled by this mystery. I was somehow feeling someones misfortune. I prayed to God this person was alright. Final Book of the 'Meant To' Series.Concluida
Choices We Make
As the bell rang, signaling school ended for the day. I watched everybody rush out of the class to meet with their friends in the halls. As for me, I tried to stall still inside the classroom, not wanting to face the bullying and teasing that came with not dressing nice in school. Standing from my assigned seat, gathering my things together before putting them inside my bookbag, I took my sweet time. Seeing the class mostly empty now, I tossed the straps around my shoulders and headed out of Mrs. Coan's classroom. Walking into the main hall, I brace myself to face the popular kids gathered by the lockers, showing off their new outfits, jewels, haircuts, and pocket money. Although we were in elementary school, it wasn't hard to notice which kids came from money and which students struggled at home. As for Myself, I was one of the bummy kids. Knowing somebody would pick on me for something they had & I didn't, I strolled towards my locker to get my coat. I was the student who never had money to buy snacks at lunchtime or books from the book cart that came to our homeroom on Mondays. I was always sharp when it came to schoolwork, and learning came naturally to me. It was effortless to get straight A's on my report card. Yet I couldn't add up how to change my living environment and earn money to buy nice things like the others in my class. Where most kids couldn't wait to get home to play their video games or sports, I was going home to an environment full of crime and drugs.Concluida
Unwritten Pages
I was never meant to stand out. Just a quiet guy in a crowded world-walking hallways, reading books I never cared about, watching people laugh from a distance. Then one day... she forgot her book in the library, Hana. She didn't say much. She never smiled. But for the first time, I saw someone who felt like a reflection of me - Alone. Detached. Tired. I don't know why I picked up her book, but I did. And that one, simple decision? It changed everything. This isn't some perfect love story. We didn't fall fast. We just... found each other-in the silence, in the grief, in the little moments most people overlook. This is about loneliness. About losing everything. About finding someone when you've stopped looking. And about learning to live, even when your days are numbered. This is our story. These are our... Unwritten Pages.Concluida
