In a world where dreams were often caged by reality, Paula Bennett found freedom in words. A university freshman with a love for reading and an insatiable thirst for life, she saw beauty in the ordinary-a sunset, a smile, the smell of old books. Her days were filled with laughter, libraries, and the belief that life was too short to waste on anything but love and passion. Melvin Carter, on the other hand, was anything but ordinary. Wealth surrounded him like a shield, and his confidence bordered on arrogance. He strode through life as if it owed him something, hiding the weight of a secret too heavy for his age. Beneath the ego was a boy fighting a battle no one could see-a diagnosis that promised to steal his future before it even began. They met in the sterile hallways of a hospital-Paula visiting her grandmother and Melvin on yet another round of tests. Their worlds couldn't have been more different: hers brimming with hope, his shadowed by inevitability. Yet, in that unlikely place, something extraordinary sparked. As their lives intertwined, the university campus became their battlefield and their sanctuary. Stolen moments between lectures, shared secrets over coffee, and quiet nights where their fears dissolved into love. But the weight of Melvin's illness and the divide of their worlds loomed over them, a constant reminder that some loves are never meant to last. This is the story of Melvin and Paula-two teenagers bound by an impossible love, daring to defy the odds in a world that seemed determined to keep them apart. Hi, readers just to let us know each Friday I will publish more. Thanks
