The law says one thing.
Society says another.
What about the truth?
Between the Rights and the Reality is a collection of short stories that dares to question the rules we're told to follow -- and the silence we' re forced to keep.
These stories expose the cracks in a world that blames the victim, glorifies the abuser and calls it "normal".
From gender roles to generational trauma , from quite defiance to loud rebellion - each story is a mirror held upto a society that fears honesty more than injustice.
Every story will hurt.
Every story will matter.
And none will let you look away.

The Shadow of Comparison
"Growing up in someone else's shadow taught me one thing: finding myself was the hardest-and most beautiful-journey of all." School was supposed to be easy-a place to learn, laugh, and grow. But for her, it quickly became anything but simple. 🌿 Everyone around her seemed brighter, bolder, better. Every whispered compliment, every small success she didn't have, made her question herself. Slowly, the shadow of comparison began to follow her everywhere. Then college arrived-bigger, more dazzling, and full of surprises she never saw coming. Friendships that challenged her, choices that tested her, and moments that made her heart ache in ways she didn't expect. Could she navigate this new world without losing herself? From quiet school corridors to late-night reflections, from self-doubt to self-discovery, this story is about growing up, facing unexpected twists, and finding the courage to step out of the shadows. If you loved "The Goodbye We Never Said," you'll recognize the familiar struggles and heartfelt moments-and maybe even find yourself rooting for her as she learns to shine in her own light.Complete

Now caught between the sister she loves and the man she's come to care for, Thandi must make an impossible choice - one that will teach her that even innocence comes with a price.
