Mia seems to live an ordinary fun loving life, but the face she puts on everyday is very misleading compared to her actual life
It's so hard for her to even feel slightly comfortable in her own skin, so it's even harder for her to make friends. It's already hard enough with her being the laughing stock of the family.
At this time in her life she really needs someone who will come into her life and stay there. Not someone who will come into it, destroy it, and then leave her there trying to put back the pieces that she didn't even have to begin with.
Mia yearns for that someone, whether it be a friend or the love of her life. How will this dream even become a possibility when she can barely hold a conversation with her mom?
Watch what happens when Mia stumbles upon the kid in the back of the classroom that's always quiet and never talks to people, but is praised for his good lucks and followed around by a group of girls everyday trying to be with him.

Not even a glance
"I walk down the school hallway, "don't make eye contact" I keep repeating in my head. The sweet smell of cologne and perfume fills the halls. I keep walking trying not to get noticed. I see the doors of the school getting closer and closer. I speed up trying to make it in time. I reach out to grab the door handle, and right as I'm about to take my step to freedom, I hear my name being called. And I know exactly who it is. The person who makes my life miserable. The person that makes me want to die more and more each day. The one person who knows my only weaknesses. The school bully." Jessica is a 15 year old at Marino High school. She's a straight A student and she lives a normal life. Or at least she did. It all started when she was 7th grade. Her mom became MIA (missing in action). Her dad became an angry man. He thought the whole reason why Jessica's mom left, was because of Jessica. He beats her every day. And to top it all off, she gets bullied at school. Will her life ever become normal again? Or will it just keep falling apart.Complete

She goes to school, she comes home, she scrolls through life like it's happening to someone else. Her parents are always too busy, her old friends have new lives, and no one seems to notice how quiet she's become-or how much it hurts. She used to dream big. Now she just dreams of being seen. Then one night, in a haze of insomnia and scrolling, Haley finds an anonymous online forum where people share the things they're too scared to say out loud. And something about their pain-the raw honesty, the way it mirrors her own-pulls her in. As the nights stretch on and the stars stay silent, Haley starts to connect with others who feel like ghosts in their own lives. In their stories, she finds flickers of light. Maybe she isn't invisible. Maybe she isn't broken beyond repair. Maybe being lost doesn't mean you'll never be found. This is a quiet, aching story about loneliness, unseen pain, and the fight to remember who you are-especially when the world forgets.Complete
