How much easier would it have been if I did have a stunt double though? I mean, think about it. I didn’t have to show up for half of my classes and just show up for exams. This allowed for my spending time actually reading what I want to. No more having to deal with uncomfortable family reunions, since my double would be attending them for me - especially when it came to those uncomfortable questions from Aunt Margaret.

	I understood that she cared, that much was clear. Alas, it was overshadowed by her consistent need to condescend to my lacking a love life, as if pursuing a career was insufficient in this day and age. I did have a love life, Aunt Margaret. It was just vague. Dealing with Mr. Latte Boy was no walk in the park, alright? As much as I wished to strike an indepth conversation, there was only so much the limited time at the counter allowed without building up the line behind me. I did not want to be that girl.

A story of a girl liking a boy and not knowing how to deal with it. Perhaps one of the most universal struggles.

Silent Scars

54 parts Ongoing

After enduring years of neglect and cruelty from her mother and stepfather, Ariana's life changes drastically when tragedy brings her under the guardianship of five brothers she's never met and they never even knew they had a sister. For her brothers, learning they have a sister is an unwelcome surprise. Suspicious and reluctant, her brothers see Aria as an outsider, a stranger disrupting the fragile balance of their lives. For Aria, their home is both a new beginning and a constant reminder of the family that left her behind. Haunted by the pain of her past, Aria struggles to adjust, her every action guarded and her trust hard to earn. As her brothers try to understand her, they begin to glimpse the scars she hides and the strength she carries. Little by little, resentment turns to empathy, and the walls between them start to crumble. But just as the siblings begin to find common ground, the secrets and trauma of Aria's old life threaten to tear them apart. Together, they must decide whether they can overcome the shadows of the past to forge a family and whether Aria can finally find a place to belong.
