Have you ever met someone as quiet as Jayden Cole? Probably not. You'd most likely notice that Jayden always keeps to himself. He's either alone in the corner with a cellphone in his hands, or with his - not so quiet - friends, during lunchtime at the office.
Jayden has a reason why he never utters a word. A reason he feels is so shameful, that he vowed to never speak again. His friends never questioned his silence in the past - mostly - ...until Nora showed up.
Nora: new head manager of the marketing department. Coincidentally the same department where Jayden works.
Nora is a very...outspoken female. Ask for the truth and she'll give it to you. Without sparing your feelings.
They meet. And now Jayden has to uphold his vow of silence, with this talkative woman constantly in his ears, when all he wants to do is tell her to shut up. To hell, if she's his superior.
Will Nora find out Jayden's secret? Or will Jayden's... condition go with him to his grave?

Quiet Until Him
"I was the quiet one. The girl in the back row, head down, heart guarded. Until he looked at me. Until he saw me. Now the silence isn't safe anymore." Quiet Until Him follows Becca, a shy, unnoticed girl, who spends her high school days flying under the radar. Her life takes an unexpected turn when Mason, the school's brooding bad boy, begins to notice her. Known for his rebellious ways, Mason finds himself intrigued by Becca's quiet strength. As their paths cross more frequently, they form an unlikely bond that forces Becca to step out of her comfort zone and challenge her quiet life. What begins as curiosity soon turns into a deep, unexpected connection that changes both of their worlds. What starts as a casual acquaintance quickly turns into something more, and the two of them find themselves caught in a web of emotions, secrets, and personal growth.

Gravel on the Roadside
This is a love story. It's the story of a boy who stood in the corner of the classroom, fell for someone way out of his league-and never said what he wanted to say. 16 years later, he's writing it down. Not for her. Not for you. Just to finally let it goLengkap
Caerwyn Rising
Years ago, Aven Caerwyn vanished from her coastal hometown under the weight of a scandal that wasn't hers to carry. Once married to Langston Everett-the city's revered fire chief and golden boy-Aven chose silence over truth, protecting his reputation while sacrificing her own. The fallout was swift and brutal: divorce, disgrace, and exile. Now, she's back. Armed with a prestigious title, global acclaim, and a name that commands boardrooms, Aven returns to the city that once turned its back on her. Her presence is quiet but seismic. Whispers trail her every step. The summit she's headlining on urban resilience and ethical leadership is the very stage where Langston will sit in the audience-and where the past threatens to ignite. But the city isn't the only thing watching. Enter Cassian Drayven-tattooed, muscled, and brilliant. Founder and CEO of Drayven Systems, a nationally renowned tech firm known for its disruptive innovations in emergency infrastructure and AI-driven crisis response. Cassian is everything Langston isn't: unpredictable, unapologetic, and drawn to Aven's fire. He sees through the silence she's worn like armor-and he's not afraid of the truth beneath it. As old secrets resurface and new alliances form, Aven must decide: will she reclaim the narrative that was stolen from her, or let the city keep its version of the truth? And when desire collides with legacy, will she risk her rebuilt empire for a love that doesn't ask her to shrink?

My Imaginary Friend
Sometimes, a person can feel lonely even while being surrounded by people. I, on the other hand, have never been surrounded by people, because if anything, I preferred feeling alone without anyone. Or more like being alone with my imaginary friend. I created Jayden in my mind back when I was nine years old. For most of my life, I transferred schools non-stop in hopes to have a better social life, at least that's what my parents wished for me to have. Unfortunately for them, I already gave up on that. I simply continued talking to Jayden, the only friend I ever had since childhood. And it just kept going as it was... until it didn't. ~~~ ~This story is dedicated to my younger self.
