Since childhood, she had been dubbed a total failure, useless and a burden. Her family was not well-off. She did everything to please them, achieving high grades and soon set to graduate with Latin honors. But things were not in her favor. No matter what she did, their treatment of her remained the same; they always considered her sibling to be better. Thus, she promised herself that she would do anything to succeed, striving to seize every opportunity that came her way. In the midst of searching for her oasis amid piling problems, she encountered a bakery-slash-café owner; a tall, visually mesmerizing, and above all, arrogant man.
She thought that being in his embrace would fill the hollow space in her heart; she believed his embrace was the safe shelter she had been waiting for.
But in just one snap, everything changed. He became her Catastrophic Oasis.

To Be Loved
There are different people who live on this planet who have different personalities, body shapes, and skin colors, but all of them are looking for the same thing. Love, peace, and a warm, comfortable life. All of them are looking for a companion to share their lives with and to help them fight their dark side; they want a shoulder to lean on when they feel vulnerable and a warm hug to embrace them after a long, tiring day. That's what most of them wished to own; this is exactly what they've been desperately seeking. Are they going to have what they desire? Or will the future be hard on them, making them suffer first before fulfilling what they yearned for? Small peak. "If you cross that door, then consider that you have no family; you will be dead to us." Her father shouted at her. She looked at her feet, thinking, what did she hope to hear from him? She turned around and looked at him dead in the eyes. "Have I ever been alive to you, dad? Have you ever for once treated me as your daughter, a part of this family?" She said it with a trembling voice. Her father was fuming with anger. "Then leave, and put that in your mind; the moment you close this door behind you, you are DEAD TO US," he yelled at her. She only looked at him dejectedly but was more determined to never stay. She reached her limit; she looked at her brother and mother, who were holding him to prevent him from reaching her, and smiled brokenly.

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.Complete
