~*~ 🪷~*~

Lucia has been living in the background since her mother died - overlooked in her own home, passed over in her own life. She's learned to stay small, to let things go, to keep her head down.

Then Trix appears. An outsider with eyes that never leave her. She says little, but she listens. She offers small kindnesses, subtle provocations, and a pull toward something Lucia has never dared explore.

Every shared look, every unspoken word feels like a door only they can see - one that could lead anywhere.

Midnight Citrus is a story for the reader who lingers on what's unsaid - a quiet, bi-curious spark told in prose, meant to bloom in the space between the lines.


~*~ 


Lucía ha vivido en un segundo plano desde la muerte de su madre: ignorada en su propia casa, ignorada en su propia vida. Ha aprendido a ser pequeña, a dejar pasar las cosas, a mantener un perfil bajo.

Entonces aparece Trix. Una forastera con una mirada que nunca la abandona. Habla poco, pero escucha. Ofrece pequeñas muestras de cariño, sutiles provocaciones y la atrae hacia algo que Lucía nunca se ha atrevido a explorar.

Cada mirada compartida, cada palabra no dicha, se siente como una puerta que solo ellas pueden ver, una que podría llevar a cualquier parte.

Cítricos de Medianoche es una historia para el lector que se detiene en lo no dicho: una chispa silenciosa y bicuriosa contada en prosa, destinada a florecer en el espacio entre líneas.

The Faded Vows by lynk992925
18 parts Ongoing
He was waiting outside the OP, there for his student who had been injured during a fight over a phone. As he sat, casually glancing at his own phone, he suddenly heard the faint sound of a baby crying. Curious, he turned toward the sound-and froze. There, outside the pediatric care unit, sat his wife with their son crying in her arms. His heart ached-it had been months since he last saw his son. His gaze shifted to his wife, gently consoling the child. Her face looked tired, pale, and completely drained. Without a second thought, he stood, tears welling in his eyes. Each step he took felt heavy, his chest tightening with every cry from his son. As he neared, he saw her clothes were faded and worn. Her feet were bare, hardened from walking-clearly straight from the farm. His heart clenched. His eyes moved to his son-he had grown so much. She was so focused on calming the baby that she didn't notice him at first. Tears filled her eyes as she held their feverish child close. He softly called her name. Startled, she looked up-and froze. Then she quickly lowered her gaze and tried to get up. He gently placed a hand on her shoulder, stopping her. She sat back down, turning her face away, quietly wiping her tears. He reached out to take their son. The moment he held him, he felt the heat-his little body was burning with fever. A chill ran through him. After all these months, seeing his child like this was unbearable. He loved his wife and son deeply, but his loyalty to his mother-and obedience to her word-always came first. Between a mother who owned his soul and a wife who held his heart, he was a man torn in a cruel war of love and loyalty. And she-she had given her all to a promise whispered beneath the sacred fire... never knowing that one day, she'd be holding her child, with nothing but a faded vow.
