Khai finds himself contemplating the meaninglessness of his life, his insecurities and all the many other things he thinks is holding him back, realising along the way just how little he matters to anyone, and how they wouldn't even care, wouldn't even notice, if he disappeared.
Somehow, someway, one small, blossoming friendship, forged online through mutual friends helps him come to terms with himself - and an upbringing he'd rather keep hidden - but with this new friendship, that proves to be all but easy, as Khai finds himself without a filter when it comes to their conversations, to the point that he feels like it's the only time he ever feels understood.
What will he do when it comes time to reveal who he really is?

Everyone's a little trapped in their own heads. Cassian is the only child of very wealthy parents and has grown up being moulded to their expectations of him. He's a great son and a model student while being popular and confident and he consciously strives to be perfect, so much so that he has never even had an unscheduled moment to breathe or think and the thought of making a mistake terrifies him.

When the quiet, lonely Theodore transfers to his school, Cassian cannot help gravitating towards the new kid despite the disapproval of his friends and parents. He's determined to pull Theodore out of his shell only to realise he may be in one himself.Complete
Monsieur Laurier
"What is love in this temporal life, if not just a distraction from the pain that doesn't seem to end." After losing his best friend to an unexplained suicide, Mateu finds himself left to pick up the pieces with his best friend's younger brother, Ferran.

But uncovering the truth requires the uncomfortable task of facing it for what it is. Only a thin line separates devotion from obsession, dedication from delusion, and passion from mania. Mateu has to choose between coming to terms with the past or be swallowed by it whole. *** Editor's Choice August 2022 @wattpadComplete
