Lost in ruins : desire and oblivion
"Immersed in pain I thought i had seen it all, whats a little more I thought. Little did I know i was walking on a hot coal with my glass slippers, head held high but heart dropped so low in shame. For the normal people i was a born queen whom people admire from afar and some even envied. I wouldn't mind the jealous glare, for i also envied the life of misery you thought you were living For you its luxury, the luxury I traded my essence for, just for me to realize it was an empty shell of delusion I silently wish for my life to end, but deep down I know I want to continue living for the fear of the unknown, for the fear of what i will meet on the other side"

Jack moves as the light turns green. "You know, if there's one book I haven't read, it's Emma by Jane." "No way." Jack nods. "I'm more on a Kafka vibe now." "Oh?" "I'm reading Letters to Milena." "You are the knife I turn inside myself; that is love. That, my dear, is love." He quotes dramatically. Jack smiles. "It's beautiful. How can he have such a vision of life and be so devastatingly in love with her? It's art." "Definitely a favourite of mine. It's so... pure, so raw. It explains what love is, I think. It's such a vague concept." Jack shrugs. "I don't think you can take his letters as a definition of love. Only you know what it means. Because everyone loves differently." Zach takes in his words. "I see." He hums. "So, to know what love is, one has to be loved." "Not necessarily. You can look at your parents and see that they love each other. Or a random old couple in the park. The love is there. But it's different from everyone else's." He nods slowly. "What's love to you?" "I'll let you figure that one out yourself." Jack smiles softly. "Maybe one day I'll tell you." He shrugs. Zach whines. "Ugh, don't be mysterious." They chuckle as Jack parks the car in front of the coffee shop. Jack turns it off. "I'm letting you explore the mystery because I don't know what love is, just yet." He moves to hold his hand. "Not that it means with you, at least." The brunet feels his lips contort into a smile. "That was so cheesy." He chuckles. He rolls his eyes. "I'm trying to be romantic here." He squeezes his hand.Complete

Coffee Shop Love
Writing books has always come naturally to me. Romance novels were the main genre that caught my attention, and I was known for them, even though I was not known by face except for a few people who knew my true identity. I never thought a romance was in my future or that my life would become something like the novels I wrote, but when I met the man that I had "known" a long time ago in a different life than the one I lived now, working in a coffee shop and hiding from those who had known me as someone else, someone that hadn't been a published author but a child of twelve and the only daughter amongst sons. So when the man entered my life a second time, ordering a coffee for himself and not having someone else do it like normal, others started to enter my life, starting with another boy, turned man, that I hadn't seen in years and had been a family member of mine before I changed my identity and hidden in plain sight. With one coffee, man, and shop, my life changed for the better or worse. Only time will tell what love story I find myself in, and hopefully, it won't end in heartbreak.
