In the quiet corners of a high school filled with noise, Konnyr and Lilian find refuge in each other's silence. Konnyr, a deaf teen carrying the weight of a turbulent home life, walks through the world tuned into emotions rather than sound. Lilian, rendered mute from past trauma, speaks only through the piano keys she's learned to master. No one truly understands her melodies-except Konnyr. He hears her with his heart, sensing every note, every emotion, as if the music was meant for him alone.
As their bond deepens, the two navigate the shadows of child abuse, mental health struggles, and the haunting pressure to be "normal." Together, they create a language of love and healing, not with words, but with touch, music, and presence. But when outside forces threaten to separate them, they must fight to protect their fragile world-a world where silence is sacred, and love speaks loudest in the quiet.

WHERE WINTER BLOOMS
Sometimes, first love isn't a person. It's the first time someone truly sees you. Nathan sings in silence. No one knows he does. No one asks why he stopped shining. Ryan pretends he's fine. No one notices he's breaking inside. A paper plane connects them. An empty theater listens. And in the middle of the world's noise, two boys find in music a language more honest than words. But growing up hurts. Loving hurts more. And the fear of disappointing those who should protect you can be louder than any melody. This story is for those who've ever felt like they didn't belong. For those who carry invisible wounds and still dare to dream. For those who know that love doesn't always shout... sometimes, it just sings.

Remain
*Sequel to Linger* His arms wrapped around my back, holding me close and I never wanted him to let go. He said he couldn't fix this mess but little did he know that just the touch of his lips on mine made all of my troublesome thoughts fade away. He kissed me so gently as if being so careful not to ruin this delicate moment between us. And it was in this moment I realized only he could make me feel this way. And no matter how hard I tried to stay away or put up my guard, I would always find myself drawn back to him. To the way he made me feel -- like it was all going to be okay. To the way he cared for me and held me like I meant everything to him. And I couldn't resist. He was my remedy and my weakness all at once. All Rights Reserved.

The Way We Mend | Book 1 | Author AifiHwa
"I didn't want this to burn out too fast. I wanted it to last, slow and steady, a burning ember that glowed for eternity." She's breaking under expectations. He's suffocating under love. Valeriana has spent her whole life performing as the perfect daughter while quietly falling apart under the weight of never being enough. Darius grew up in warmth and freedom, only to find that too much love can also be a cage. At Ceridian University, Valeriana just wants to survive another semester. Darius just wants to do his job and keep his heart out of it. But when their paths cross; the tutor sessions, quiet teasing, dinners, and moments that weren't supposed to matter turns into something neither expected. A bond built on shared exhaustion and unspoken care. They teach each other how to breathe again. How to laugh when the world feels too heavy. How to love without needing to be perfect. But as their connection deepens, so does the fear of losing control, of being too much, of not being enough. Because love, for them, isn't a rescue. It's a slow unravelling. A choice to stay when it would be easier to run. "The Way We Mend" is a tender, slow-burn romance about burnout, healing, and the quiet courage of being seen and loved as you are. {This is an original work written by me.

Little Light (GxG)
In a world that moves too fast, she's learning to breathe slowly. To feel again. To let someone touch the parts of her she thought were long gone. There are no crowns here. No thrones. Just the quiet war of learning how to be held without flinching. She doesn't beg for safety. She creates it in silence. And when she kneels, it's not for weakness- it's because she trusts. But trust has a pulse. And it just might be hers. A story of shadows softened by light, of control given, not taken. Of healing whispered through touch, and love written in silence.

𝗕𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗥𝗼𝗼𝘁𝘀 | 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐰𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠
Beneath the roots lies a realm unspoken, where shadows breathe and rivers run black. A single step too far unravels the veil between worlds, turning play into curse, and innocence into exile. Beyond the roots, the air itself conspires, forests whisper of forgotten kings, and demons walk as both beasts and men. Yet above that abyss rises a kingdom of warmth, a fragile jewel cradled in sunlight. Its streets awaken each dawn in a riot of color: banners ripple, stalls spill with fruit and cloth, and fountains laugh with crystal spray. Children dart through blooming gardens, their laughter ringing louder than bells, while elders sit beneath arching roots, telling stories of brighter days. Here, joy is stitched into life itself. The baker greets with sugared bread, the blacksmith's hammer sings with the town musicians, and couples dance when lanterns glow like fallen stars. Festivals turn nights into oceans of song, where drums thunder and torches paint the sky in fire and gold. In this place, hope does not hide-it parades, it feasts, it laughs. The people call their home a sanctuary, untouched by sorrow, where each day begins with promise and ends in peace. To live here is to believe, if only for a moment, that darkness is nothing more than a distant dream. But beneath their feet, the roots stretch into silence. For every blossom hides its shadow, and every feast masks a silence that waits. The kingdom may be a cradle of joy, but its foundation drinks from the same soil where nightmares stir. Here, survival is no gift. Every choice is a bargain, every path a trial. What seems human may wear another face, and what seems monstrous may hold a broken heart. Secrets buried for centuries stir in the soil, twisting destiny tighter with every breath. This is not a tale of crowns or kingdoms, but of a world where light is fragile, where hope withers, and where even the roots that bind the earth tremble before what waits below.
