Synopsis of Penny drop

◍Lory is a passionate stubborn photography student, she loves it and wants to be a professional at it, and she's on the right track. Kind and loving, not much of a socialite, but she knows better than to take nonsense from any person especially a certain careless guy called Jayden or as she would like to call him, J for Jerk.

◍Jayden, he's got the looks the charms, the humour and the passion as well. He wants to be a highly prominent architect in the future, that's his focus. Relationships? Nah. Flings? Yes. And he enjoys it but a certain annoying someone comes bugging into his life from somewhere, she's called Lory but he calls her Lorry the truck. 

◍The way the argue and bicker is insane, you might end up throwing your phone at the wall...but it's all worth it. If photography and architecture can have some similarities then why can't they?

◍It all starts with a penny drop◍All Rights Reserved

She Hates The Billionaire by clarity_57

He was born into wealth and privilege. She was born into struggle. As children, he made her life miserable. He bullied her relentlessly, mocking her in front of classmates because she was overweight, quiet, and came from a poor, striving family. He humiliated her at every chance he got, tearing down her confidence and chasing away anyone who dared to befriend her. She hated him with every piece of her heart and prayed that once high school ended, their paths would never cross again. Fate seemed to answer her prayers. After graduation, she earned a scholarship to study in the United States, leaving behind the pain, the memories... and him. Six years passed. She was no longer the same girl he once knew. But fate had its own plans. An unexpected meeting. A past that refused to stay buried. A boy who once broke her. A man who might beg for forgiveness. Will he be given a second chance? Will she let go of the hate she carried for years... or will her past remain unforgiven? Some wounds heal. Some loves begin with pain.

Don't Fall for Me by juliannav135

I was doing just fine my junior year of high school. I mean I did pick fights once in a while and my grades weren't the best, but I was doing okay. Xander was my best friend, actually my only friend. We didn't need anyone else, really. But then Ryker came back more badass than ever. I've hated him since we were children and apparently the feeling is mutual. We don't get along. He's cocky, arrogant, and downright mean. We were better off while he was gone. He should never have moved back. So, I stole his motorcycle. Then he told me not to fall for him. ~*~*~*~ I went over to the door and jumped back when it opened. Ryker came back in, pushing me up against one of the lockers. He locked his eyes on my lips and I gasped. He smirked. "Don't fall for me, Angel." With that, he stepped away from me and left again for good. What the hell? Did he honestly have the audacity to tell me not to fall in love with him? I clenched my fists, shoving the door open to confront the cocky jerk.

$When I Met You {English} by Iris_Hayley$

"You disappoint me... What do you even see in him?" "Aren't you tired of this already?! If you want to pick a fight, fight me, not him. Got it??" What he did enraged me so much that I threw my hardest punch at his face, forcing his head to snap to the side. "If you ever touch him again--" before I could finish my sentence, he grabbed my arm and slammed me against the wall. "If I touch him again, what?!" he shouted, his face inches from mine, as I trembled with rage. "Got a big crush on the kid, huh?!" he exploded, and I could feel the weight of everyone's eyes on us. ~~ Have you ever wondered how different your life would be if you changed just the smallest of your actions? Because that's what I do. I wonder how my life would be now if I hadn't made that tiny mistake in the schoolyard. Everything started then. When I met you, twelve years ago...
