"I didn't want this to burn out too fast. I wanted it to last, slow and steady, a burning ember that glowed for eternity."
She's breaking under expectations.
He's suffocating under love.
Valeriana has spent her whole life performing as the perfect daughter while quietly falling apart under the weight of never being enough.
Darius grew up in warmth and freedom, only to find that too much love can also be a cage.
At Ceridian University, Valeriana just wants to survive another semester. Darius just wants to do his job and keep his heart out of it. But when their paths cross; the tutor sessions, quiet teasing, dinners, and moments that weren't supposed to matter turns into something neither expected. A bond built on shared exhaustion and unspoken care.
They teach each other how to breathe again.
How to laugh when the world feels too heavy.
How to love without needing to be perfect.
But as their connection deepens, so does the fear of losing control, of being too much, of not being enough.
Because love, for them, isn't a rescue.
It's a slow unravelling. A choice to stay when it would be easier to run.
"The Way We Mend" is a tender, slow-burn romance about burnout, healing, and the quiet courage of being seen and loved as you are.

Sometimes the biggest threats are family. James, a soon-to-be high school graduate and ranking member of the locally known outcasts, is about to take the next step in his life. Reflecting on his past leading up to this, he regretted not doing what every other high schooler seemed to do, from constant partying and experimenting with drugs, but what he deemed most important-having a relationship. Watching his childhood crush, Hannah, who he was once inseparable with, becoming the most popular girl in school and leaving him in her rearview mirror. Fighting with his emotions and wondering how he'd ever rise above the seemingly more qualified fish in the sea resulted in James being consumed by his internal darkness. The only thing able to pull him out of it is his best friend, Clare-Hannah's outcast cousin. With everyone going their separate ways, it presented one final chance. James is forced to decide if Hannah's worth chasing after and keeping his darkness at bay. Or letting her go and fully giving in to his self-destructive ways.Complete

2nd Place in The Dragon Fire Awards 3rd Place in Science Fiction in the Tricolour Terrenial Awards. " No one was truly your own in this world. Everyone, in the deepest parts of their hearts, cared only for themselves. And even if true love did exist, you can never truly understand someone. You can never know what is going on in the other person's head. For all you know, the person can be looking at you with loving eyes, full of bliss, but really they are battling their own, inner demons, keeping secrets buried and telling lies to cover up. That's what people do. That's what everyone does. Keep their demons buried and tell lies to keep them buried. And people love so that they can heal, so that they can find relief from continuously battling their demons. To have someone to share their burden with. And havoc occurs when the demon is stronger than your will, when love isn't enough to keep the monster at bay. " A girl, torn between her heart and mind. A boy, set out to avenge his parents. A pair of twins with only one, deadly goal in their life. A country ruled and oppressed by a power-hungry mad man. Will they ever be free?Complete

Though he treated her like a little sister, her heart longed for more. But time creates distance. Zaroon completes his MBBS in their home country and moves to London for further studies. Determined to follow in his footsteps, the female lead also pursues medicine, ending up in the same city years later. By then, she has let go of her childhood crush, focusing on her ambitions and newfound independence. When fate brings them together again, circumstances force them into each other's orbits. But this time, it's Zaroon who finds himself drawn to her-not as a little girl who used to admire him, but as a woman who now stands on her own. A series of events make him see her in a new light, stirring emotions he never expected. With forced proximity, unresolved past emotions, and growing tensions, their relationship shifts from teacher-student to something far more complicated. But will she let him in after all these years, or has he already lost his chance?
