A young woman graduated from college and has no idea what to do with the rest of her life. No one will hire a nobody with no experience and a lot of time on their hands. Spiky (her nickname), tries to find her way in life while many odds are stacked against her, such as a lack in money, the lack of experience, her friends, society's definition of being an adult, and the struggle of being her own cheerleader.

The Girl No One Chose
I gave him everything. My heart. My body. My secrets. He gave me silence-and loved someone else. I was just the distraction. The warm body. The easy f*ck. Not the girl he showed off. Not the one he kissed in public. Not the one he chose. Now I'm done waiting. Done begging to be seen. Because the girl no one chose... She's about to become the girl no one forgets.
What If I Was Nothing?
Hannah and Ryan once believed love meant being everything to each other. But somewhere between unanswered calls, quiet dinners, and promises that became too heavy to carry, their relationship began to change. Ryan has spent years trying to protect Hannah from every fear, every mistake, and every moment of pain. Hannah has spent just as long pretending she is fine so he will stop trying to save her. They still love each other, but love has become tangled with guilt, dependence, and the fear of who they might be apart. When one broken promise brings everything they have avoided to the surface, they are forced to confront the question neither of them is ready to answer: What if losing the person you love does not make you nothing? A bittersweet story about love, identity, letting go, and learning that sometimes two people must fall apart before they can become whole.Zakończone
Tenth Grade was Fun!
Sometimes you get things to happen your way and you're happy, sometimes you don't and you're hurt. What hurts even more is to experience what you had wanted for a little while only for it to be robbed away from you brutally. However, everything does happen for a certain reason doesn't it? - - - - Getting the cute boy in her music class-who now goes to the same school as her-to reciprocate her feelings and get a good score in the tenth grade board exam was definitely in Rithvika Sharma's agenda. What wasn't in it though, was getting into a ruckus of drama. Does she really woo the cute boy? Or is a change of plans in order? But romance isn't the only difficult aspect of life now, is it? - - - - I beg y'all to point out any grammar mistakes 'cause I would love an extra pair of eyes that could point out the mistakes. - - - - 31 / 01 / 2023 : Featured in Wattpad Outreach's "💎 Featured Stories - Best of Outreach Hidden Gems". 20 / 03 / 2023 : Second Place in Young Adult Romance category of Sapphire Awards.Zakończone
Pause at 30
Growing up doesn't end at adulthood. It just gets real. What does it really mean to "have it all together" by thirty? This book is a collection of deeply personal vignettes unfolds like snapshots in a scrapbook-raw, funny, heartbreaking, and true. From scraped knees to broken hearts, dorm rooms to delivery rooms, therapy sessions to quiet moments of peace, each chapter captures a real, relatable moment in the journey toward thirty. Told through the voices of different lives, these standalone stories explore growing pains, identity, love, loss, friendship, failure, and quiet triumphs. Each chapter ends with a small revelation-because sometimes, it takes thirty years to learn the simplest truths. This is not a guide. It's not advice. It's a mirror held up to the lives we've all lived or are still living. And maybe, just maybe, it's the reminder that you're not alone-even if you still don't know what you're doing.Zakończone

Rex the Period and Silence
"Growing up" is every kid's dream. In their eyes, it is a bar of gold that can give them everything. So did I think that way. I left my country two years before my sweet seventeen which never happened in my life, with a hope to become the new mature living creature who can survive in every situation, alone. Not knowing how hurting it will be to find the gold. I had no idea how heavy is the responsibility of being gold. Growing up means being ready to bear a heavier assignment, have a stronger endurance, knowing what is right and what is wrong, have wisdom, knowing how to love, and knowing a way to trust myself and be me. Growing up alone in circumstances where you have no choice but to admit that you are speaking a different language, have a different habit, get used to a different culture, admit that you are different, and have to work harder than others just to be treated normally, gives me no choice but to study to live and shape myself to always be the best which is tiring. I always wonder what is the definition of a grown-up adult, what is the definition of a mature adult, and do I succeed to be a mature living creature? Will I find the right way? Am I growing as a good person? Will I be a great person who is strong enough to bear every heavy assignment? Whether to love others or me, will I ever know how to love and to be loved? Can I live up to my name? -R. Silience Theodore-Zakończone
