Under the warm whispers of an olive tree, twelve year old Riham sits quietly, watching a world that no longer feels like home.

The Unseen Love ( COMPLETED )
The Unseen Love In a world full of loud confessions and grand gestures, theirs was a love written in whispers-quiet, unspoken, and yet louder than the rest. Naba never believed in soulmates until Azaan walked into her life-not with fireworks, but with the softness of a sunset, a presence that gently pulled her out of her shadows. He saw her not as the world did, but as she was-fragile yet fierce, dreamy yet grounded. And she... she felt him before she even understood what her heart was yearning for. This is a story of love that bloomed in silence. A love that wasn't shown to the world, but felt in every heartbeat, every passing glance, every stolen moment. It's about two souls finding each other not because they were meant to, but because they chose to-again and again. Because sometimes, the most powerful kind of love... is the one that no one sees but the two hearts living it.Complete

Through The Fire And The Stars
"Through the Fire and the Stars" (A "The White Olive Tree" Fan Fiction - 40k+ words, One Shot) This fan fiction was born out of heartbreak. Watching The White Olive Tree Episode 38 and witnessing Benjamin's tragic fate left me devastated. I couldn't accept it. So, with all my limitations, I decided to rewrite his story-to give him the happy ending he was robbed of. Set in a war-torn world, this story follows Benjamin, a reckless yet fiercely loyal soldier, and Sa Xin, a former journalist who traded his pen for a rifle. Bound by a promise and tested by endless battles, they navigate the brutal realities of war, their growing feelings, and the unspoken emotions lingering between them. From deadly missions to moments of quiet tenderness, their relationship is a slow burn of bickering, teasing, and unshakable devotion-even when Benjamin remains oblivious to his own heart. As the war escalates, sacrifices are made, truths are confronted, and their bond is pushed to its limits. This is an Alternate Universe (AU) with a military setting. While some elements may resemble the original story, many things have changed. It's far from canon. The plot is a mess, often repetitive, filled with plot holes, and painfully slow-burn. The characters might feel OOC (Out of Character), and at times, the writing might be frustrating. I know this fan fiction isn't perfect. Maybe it's even bad or annoying to some. But honestly? I don't care. I'm not a professional writer, and I never intended this to be flawless. I wrote this simply because I couldn't bear to see Benjamin's story end in tragedy. And because there are barely any fan fictions about this pair-less than ten, seriously?-I decided to create one myself. If nothing else, at least here, Benjamin gets to live.Complete
