[Thantophobia (n.) ~ fear of losing someone you love]
Book 3 of 'Afraid' Series
"Some things are always meant to be hidden no matter how much people love them or wish to see them because once they see those, they start moving away."
"If people drift away after seeing something they wanted to see, it means that they had never really loved it."
In a world where you get cuts, which later become scars, everytime someone else breaks a promise they had made to you, Navoneel, a literature student goes back to the same cafe frequently and Tamoghno, an aspiring musician, runs a local café with his friend.
The closer the person causing the cuts, the deeper the scar will be. And those have more control over them than everyone thinks.

Isa's Scars
Sticks and bones may break my bones but bones will heal. These scars won't fade. She was fine. Fun. Chill. Always with a smile or a joke. She pretends she's fine, that nothing's wrong, that her smile is every bit as real as her cuts. She has people who need her, people who rely on her but she's slowly slipping away from them and they have no idea what's happening to her. She doesn't know what changed but it was sudden, like someone flicking a light switch, engulfing her and everyone around her in darkness. Isa's scars Betty's sight Ali's broken Sean's love Elle's disappearing I didn't write this to make the stuff in it seem glamorous, I wrote it to show that it does happen and if nothing is done it won't get any better. COMPLETED It's a novella (short novel) i am writing another book with the same characters called isa's star set after this one but u can read it before or after ❤️Complete
SOLACE (condensed version)
This is not a happy, feel-good story. This is a story of heartbreak, of a person being utterly destroyed. However, it is also a story of true friendship and loyalty, of finding oneself, of unwavering love. It is a story of keeping promises, no matter how much it kills you to keep them. (Not my cover photo) Condensed and more succinct version of previous story Bit of an 'origin story' to Hiraeth (WIP) which shows how much grief can interfere with living your life. TW: mental illness, death, abuse, suicide, drug abuse, violence, assault, sexual assault This novel is told from the perspective of Alex - as she grows up with her best friend, Andy. It follows 15 years of friendship, in the format of monthly journal entries. Andy and Alex's teen angst evolves into harsh adult realities, but they always have each other. It shines a light on a lot of prevalent issues in society: addiction, stalking, assault, abuse, mental illness, and the ever-present grief of losing loved ones. Andy and Alex never get the timing right in their love for one another, and often drift apart as a result - but they can always find each other again.Complete
