She thought their bond was unbreakable. They had shared everything, secrets, laughter, dreams. Until one day, without warning, her best friend walked away as if she had never mattered. The sudden abandonment shatters her, sending her into a spiral of self-doubt and heartbreak.
A month later, as if nothing happened, the friend reappears. No apologies. No explanations. Just requests for favors, notes, and emotional support. And she helps-because that's who she is. But something has changed. The friendship that once meant everything is now just a collection of memories she can't seem to forget.
As she navigates the pain of betrayal, the struggle of pretending, and the ache of nostalgia, she asks herself a single question: Can we be strangers again? Because, just maybe, it would hurt less.
A raw and poignant story about learning to let go of someone who has already let go of you.

Burning Bridges

31 parts Complete

Raven has worked for years on becoming the best of the best with The Snakes gang ever since she realized life doesn't give equal opportunities. But when it comes to the real test of loyalty, her world turns upside down when she learns a whole new meaning of that word. Tears will be shed, kisses will be shared, blood will be spilled, but her boiling anger will shine the brightest on her endeavor of befriending the enemy and burning the bridges that she has crossed in the past. *** He kept a neutral face, but his eyes said it all. They made me want to apologize and fix the mess I made because they looked just so...abandoned. Lost, like he doesn't know what to do with his life anymore. That sent another anxious feeling to my gut. Did I look the same? Did we both look lost? I was never found to begin with. All I could focus on was the emotion in his eyes. That deep shade of blue caressed by betrayal. That longing from before was gone because he was stuck, just like I always was. *** I should have known that this endeavor wasn't going to end so easily. Because I haven't died yet. And the villain always dies at the end of the story. *** Dreams don't come true because they're not reality. They're an alternate future where anything is possible. But that's not LA. A bright and crowded city with layers of sin and darkness underneath it, ready to prey on its most naive victims. I should know because I was one of them. ***
