I Loved You Blindly [Complete]
'Accidents happen'. That's what people say. Yet, some accidents take away from us more than others. Ethan had it all. Everything was lined up in front of him. Popularity, looks, friends, a hot girlfriend and a promised future in football. In one incident that resulted in a horrible accident, he lost it all. The best friend, the girlfriend, the planned future and his sight. Fighting through darkness and depression, he built high walls that kept everyone out. Skye suffered loss too, but she kept strong for the sake of her little brother, Matt. With her aunt and brother, leaving home and moving to a new place seemed like the perfect solution. A new start that they all needed. Skye's plan was to blend in and keep to herself. Well, not the easiest task when it was obvious as daylight that you were the new girl at school. Especially when she, literally, bumped into Ethan. For Ethan who has been isolating himself and absolutely independent that he pushed everyone away, and Skye being stubborn and not in-the-least shy on saying what she thought openly, fighting and bickering was unpreventable. Skye saw through the walls that Ethan has built around himself. Drawn to him, slowly, their friendship started to turn into something else.

Encouragement With Mrs. Dragneel!
Hey there, lovely people! I hope all of you are doing well! Each and every one of you!! Remember back in 2019 when I released my book filled with words of encouragement and hope? Well, I've made the decision to take that original book down and give it a complete makeover!! Have you ever had those moments when you've felt like you're not good enough? Like you're just taking up space in this world? Or have you questioned your purpose and existence, wondering why you're even here? It's not easy to fight off those negative and depressive thoughts that creep into our minds. Life can throw us curveballs and it can be a real challenge to keep moving forward. But amidst all the darkness and struggles, there is always a glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel! ✨ Credit for inspiring me to bring this back and modified goes to @Fierydragon26!! ☺️❤️

"You were worried about me, Specs?" He smirked. "No, Tyler. I hoped that someone cut up your corpse and fed it to paranas. Obviously I was, you idiot! I'm a doctor. Worrying about people is kind of programmed into my system. It's a curse if you ask me," I surprised myself a lot more than I thought was possible with my answer. And what did he do? Laugh! He fucking laughed! Not full on rolling- on- the- floor laughter but a laugh nonetheless. "This isn't funny, Tyler." "It kind of is. Almost a month ago, I would've sworn that you hated me. Be careful, Specs," he squinted down at me, "or you might actually sound as if you like me." I rolled my eyes. "Don't flatter yourself. I was concerned. Don't confuse that with affection. It's two very, very different things." *** When you think that all is not lost in the world. That not all men are pricks and that not all sushi is bad. When you think that there is a light, no matter how dim, at the end of the tunnel. When you think that life isn't the ruthless bitch you've always thought it was... It turns around and bites you in the ass. When you think that the past will always and forever remain where it should be... It comes at you from every direction. Like a violent tsunami destroying everything...and everyone in it's path. Can you change what happened? I wish. Can you stop what's going to happen? God! I really hope so.Complete

Healing Hearts
The first day at Crestwood High was supposed to be exhilarating-new friends, new experiences. But as I walked through the bustling halls, anxiety crept in. Everyone seemed to fit in, while I felt like a puzzle piece that didn't belong. Then I saw him-Arnav. Alone by his locker, a striking figure with dark hair and piercing eyes, he carried the weight of the world. Rumors swirled: the handsome loner, once full of life but now silent. I was drawn to him, intrigued by the shadows beneath his surface. Whispers hinted at a tragic past-a betrayal that had turned him into a ghost of his former self. Little did I know how intertwined our lives would become. As our paths crossed, I longed to peel back the layers of his heart and understand the pain hidden behind that stoic facade. My quest for answers would lead us both down a tumultuous path of healing, confronting ghosts of the past, and discovering the power of love. This is our story-a tale of broken hearts, unexpected connections, and the journey toward finding light in the darkest places. It all began that first day, when everything felt uncertain, and hope was just a whisper away. Writer's Disclaimer "Healing Hearts" is a work of fiction.

"We're just best friends." That's what Aarav told himself. That's what Avni whispered on a call one night. But maybe... it was never just that. Aarav never planned to get close to anyone again. After falling out with his ex-best friend, being haunted by his past trauma, and battling anxiety daily, he had quietly accepted that no one would ever really understand him. Until her. Avni-the school's golden girl. The one everyone loved. The one he feared talking to. But when a simple class note turned into late-night stories, and when planning to cut off her toxic ex Prithvi turned into laughter and healing, something changed. Slowly. Quietly. Unknowingly. She saw the version of him no one else could. He comforted the version of her no one else knew. And in the middle of chaos, heartbreak, and whispered "ILY"s that didn't sound like just friendship... they found home in each other. He became her peace. She became his person. Until the day Aarav's father made one last call-a call only to her. > "He's your responsibility now. Keep him on the right track." They're best friends. Or at least, that's what they keep telling everyone. But behind every "just checking on you," every "goodnight," every "you're all I have"... is a love that's waiting to be said. A story of healing, friendship, grief, and a bond that even time can't define.Complete
Being the difference I want to see in the world.
As sad as it may be, we live in a world where the rich are getting richer, and the poor live in worse conditions every day. A world where people have to live behind masks and hide who they truly are, just to be accepted into this corrupted society. A world where everyone primarily thinks of himself and not about what he could to help his brother in need? Dive into my vision, be bold enough to read these chapters, and accept that you may have also been committing these mistakes that corrupt our society and together, let us grow into better versions of ourselves and begin to wonder; what if this had happened to me? How would I have reacted? What can I do to change my community? What if I decide to manifest my dreams every day instead of wishing they would happen? Every single part of this will be entirely unique but all interconnected by one subject, "the human nature". Only together can we change the world, don't be so lazy to think that it is the government's job to do so; take your responsibilities and act to see a change.Complete
