Every basketball player I saw, nothing was like him
as I walked alone the school compound the view I saw had completely changed me and I knew I won't be the same again,
the sunset was so gorgeous maybe because he was standing in the direction
The smile he had on his face I had never seen someone so bright
as I stood a gaze on him I felt like my time had stopped everything including the world
I sat at the corner of the court and watched them play
I didn't hear my phone ringing and it was from my mom how I had never seen before nor did my dad ever tell me about
Will, I be able to imagine a happy future, with him
Is the season willing to bring us together
Or our destiny was also a stranger crossing by.

No More Daddy's Little Whore
Years ago, as strangers we sat on a bench in the park. We agreed on the beauty of the weather and I proudly, but lacking true confidence, told you of my aspirations to be a writer. You smiled whistfully and began to talk, fated to tell me the journey of your life prior to that moment. So many times throughout your reminiscings, in a sad voice you said, "but no one believed me." Through my tears and adminration for all you endured I vowed to give credence to your testimony. You smiled and nodded, your eyes pleading for successs, but also offering absolution because I had listened. Then you walked away. Forgive me for neglecting my role. I feared I wouldn't do you justice but, finally, here it is. I hope that you find it. I pray that it brings you the warmth of truth now that it's been exposed to the light.Complete
Because of Haven Beach
"The moon's really beautiful, if you think about it," I blurted. "Yeah?" he asked, mild amusement and curiosity mingling in his voice. "Yeah," I confirmed. "It's just- there's something about the moon that's ethereal. I don't really know how to describe it, but it's a constant in life. You can't always see it, but you have to trust that it's out there somewhere. And when you can see it, it's all bright and shiny and overcomes the darkness." I paused, searching for the right words. "I don't know. I guess it's a reminder that there are good things out there, even if you can't see them... And it's cool to think that someone hundreds of miles away is staring at the exact same moon as you. It makes me feel not so alone in life." Turning my head, I saw him staring at me intently with a thoughtful look on his face. "Too deep for a Friday night?" I laughed nervously, feeling my face grow hot. And this was precisely why I didn't go to parties. He shook his head and seemed to snap out of his daze. "It was deep in a good way." *** SHE was quiet & left out.

Written in the Margins
"You're like a book too," I said before I could stop myself. "And I think I've just gotten to the good part." He looked at me then-really looked. Not with flirtation or teasing, but with this quiet kind of awe, like he hadn't expected to hear something like that. Like he hadn't expected me. We didn't say much after that. We didn't need to. The silence between us was full-of things felt but not yet spoken. That's how our story has always been. Not rushed. Not loud. But tucked gently into the soft moments-the after-school walks, whispered prayers, voice messages at midnight, the brush of hands, the rain.Complete
The Boy Who Found Her
Prologue A long time ago, there was a girl with her short height who always spent her break time the same way quietly tucked away in her secret place under the tree, reading her notes. Every day, without fail, sometimes she sat alone by the window in the farthest corner of the classroom, hidden behind a curtain of silence and sunlight. The world outside bustled with chatter and footsteps, but in her little corner, time seemed to slow down. She always wore her earphones, soft music playing just loud enough to drown out the noise. Her long black hair fell gently over her shoulders, framing a face that was too often lost in thought. She didn't care how she looked why would she? She believed no one was watching. To her, this moment of peace belonged only to her. But she was wrong. She didn't know that someone had been watching her all along. A boy. He sat a few rows away, quiet and unnoticed just like her. Day after day, he observed her from a distance, curious and drawn to the way she seemed so content in her own world. He didn't know her name. He didn't know her story. But something about her made him pause, made him want to understand the silence she lived in. What she didn't know was that he would soon become the one to change everything she believed about herself. He would be the one to break her quiet world And he would be the one to show her that happiness still exists in this world.

The Honest Liar
He just stood there. Looking at me. The way I had reacted had put him in a state of shock. "I... I um," Every word I had learned from pre-school to now had just flew out of my mind and left me speechless. "I should go." I could tell he could barely hear the hurtful words I had just chocked out of my mouth, but I didn't care. Not anymore. I walked away. Fighting back tears. I drove all the way to my house and when I got there I fell against the cold wall. What had just happened? All I knew is that I wasn't able to think straight. My mind was clouded with memories of him. I shook my head trying to forget everything that was involved with him. But I wasn't able to forget. These thoughts were a part of me now. He was a part of me.Complete

Worth the Risk
August & Colin | WRU series | book 1 We take risks. We make mistakes. We lie. We love. We hurt. We lose total control. I took a risk. I paid the price. I made a mistake. I felt the guilt. I lied. I lie. I loved. I try not to. I hurt. I still do. I lost control. I'm losing again. I try to stick to my plan, I try to follow my rules, I try to silence my heart, I try to keep control of the domino stones that represent my life. But one domino fell and the rest just followed. *** "We shouldn't do this," he whispers against my lips. I should applaud him for having the strength to act on that thought because I haven't been able to. At one point I wanted to, but his touches made the impulse to stop vanish. Now, the only thing I want to act on is the longing inside my chest as I think about demolishing the space between us. "Do you want to stop?" I can feel his frown against my forehead. He nudges my nose before placing a featherlight kiss on my mouth. His hands slide over my jawline, his thumbs slowly caressing my cheeks. He gives me another kiss. Slow and deliberately, as if he's still debating the answer to my question as he slicks his tongue over mine. He softly sucks on my bottom lip, dragging it with him when he pulls away. "I can't," he confesses before he presses his lips back on mine. *** All Rights Reserved (Do not copy this story, thank you :))Complete

Now, an orphan living with his grandparents, Huening Kai faces the daunting prospect of adapting to a new school, Teaser: ❤️🩹 The sun cast its warm embrace as I approached my new school, clad in a hoodie that shielded me from the world. Strangely, the radiant day did little to lift my spirits. Life seemed simpler when hope was a distant memory. Wandering down the school halls, I contemplated the profound change in my perspective. Not a year ago, I could never have imagined looking into someone's eyes and thinking, 'they'll die soon.' Humanity, as I once believed in it, proved to be the harbinger of my family's demise. It felt like an act orchestrated by Satan himself. Everything happened for a reason, or so they say. Yet, in the face of life's twists, I couldn't help but mutter, 'what the heck.' Resigned to the newfound peace in apathy, I strolled through the immense school, dismissing the importance of classes with a wry smile. Thank goodness echoed in my mind, but not the words 'thank God.' The deity who took away my happiness and presented me with this supposed fresh start didn't warrant my gratitude. I questioned what this was meant to be-this abrupt shift in my life. Suddenly, my introspective thoughts were interrupted by an unexpected encounter. I stumbled to the ground, a collision with another soul. "Sorry," a voice apologized, and as I looked up, I found a hand extended towards me. "Totally my fault," the person insisted. I took his hand, my gaze fixated on him. "Uhm, I'm Soobin. What's your name?" he asked, breaking the silence. The encounter offered a glimpse of connection in a world that seemed indifferent.Complete
