A Swing in the Park di GeBaas

It was the summer of 1976 when my father left us. It was a particularly memorable summer and my mother suffered terribly. My father had left her for a younger woman and moved into her apartment which was above a flower shop where she worked. My mother struggled making ends meet and got a job as a nursing assistant at Peaceful Haven, an old folks home that still exists although it is very badly run down now. Because she could not afford a baby sitter, my mother took me to work where I sat in the lounge and watched TV and read books. On her lunch breaks she took me across the street to Faulkner Park where she made out with Fred while I wandered around eating my sandwich. But I quickly grew bored. I was 8 then, a bright young girl with an active imagination. I imagined doors in the sandbox, swings into the sky, doors to another world. And in the rooms of the old lost souls were more doors only waiting to be opened. I took those souls with me on my adventures and eased their loneliness and age with my contagious eagerness to believe anything. And then a terrible thing happened to me, so terrible I could not speak of it. I was in hospital, unable to believe anymore and my old friends came to visit me and to believe for me. I am 30 now, and as I write this and look back I wonder if I still believe. And yes, I do. Believing got me through that summer and believing got my father to come home again.

The Memories Of Loving You di Rosebud1208

I had unpublished this in hopes of editing and republishing. But i have lost my motivation for this story and cannot say if i will ever return to it. My deepest apologies. {FairyTail x OC - new character love interest} Siara was born in Magnolia to a wealthy family. But she was missing something that would ruin her life for good. You see, fate was not kind to her at first. Her past was torturous, but she was lucky enough to survive and forget the whole experience. After countless years, Siara wakes up on the streets of Magnolia. Her past is a mystery to her, and she finds herself at square one. With her arrival at the Fairy Tail guild, she meets a strikingly familiar figure from what Siara assumes is her past. Might he just be the one to restore her memories or be the one who will seal them away for good? Find out as you dive into the Fairy Tail fanfiction, 'The Memories Of Loving You'. {Disclaimer: This is a Fairy Tail (which I do not own) OC story with an additional character as the love interest (which I do own). To accommodate my characters, I need to give Magnolia additional history, but it won't affect the universe's usual functionality. So, just a heads up.} Have fun reading!!

The Glass Man - Lila Gray Book 1 di JoanneGalbraith

My name is Lila, the last of the Grays. The Glass Man murdered my family seven years ago, and I've been running ever since. He finds me in my dreams and tells me I'm not human. I argue with him, because it's absurd. So what if I can sense and control other people's minds and change my appearance at will? It doesn't mean I'm like him. I try to save lives, while the Glass Man kills on a whim. When he's close, I feel our combined potential, like a nuclear bomb with the power to wipe out the human race. Maybe that's why he's looking for me. Or maybe he wants to kill me, too. Before my time runs out, I have to find out why mother left me her music box. It holds answers-I know it. Although I'm tired, I have to keep moving. Keep scrounging for food. Keep dodging bullets. Keep ahead of him. It should be an easy decision, if not for the part of me that wants him as badly as he wants me.
