They say life is like a rollercoaster, but Alan somehow thought it was a train. 

For Alan Richards, his life was quiet-boring, as some might say. But when his grandchildren beg him to share his story, he invents a train: The Train of Destiny. 

What begins as a harmless story becomes a mirror of the life he tried to forget-filled with unexpected detours, painful memories, and a mysterious encounter that changed the course of his life. 

Somewhere between the stations of memory and imagination, an old man finds what it truly means to reach your destination.(CC) Attribution-NoDerivs

Fallen Promise by -SIGBIN-

Language: English [COMPLETED] Hardships often prepare ordinary people for an extraordinary destiny. Where sometimes, wrong choices takes us to the right places. Why is it that the world is small, and life is short. Why is it so hard to wish for the person whom you loved to just stay. I wished for a countless time while I was interrogated, hoping my wishes from Him will be permitted. Just to find out I'd be the only one to hold on the last memory for a thousand years. The mind may forget, but the heart will not. Years may have passed but the fire is still lit." #25 - heavenly #136 - drama filled Note: This is the first story I've ever written.

𝑾𝒉𝒊𝒔𝒑𝒆𝒓𝒆𝒅 𝑷𝒓𝒐𝒎𝒊𝒔𝒆𝒔 (✓) by DAYDREAMER_DEE

(not edited) This is the book I never even admired. It was more like a journal for me-just ranting and never meant to be published. I only uploaded it so that my friend could read it, and I never imagined people would actually love it. So, it's nothing like Whispered Vows-that's the book I poured my heart and soul into, dedicating 5-6 months completely. So please, don't judge me by this book 😂!! It was written when I was a teen and remained just a draft for almost a year from 2022 to 2024. Happy Reading ✨ (SHORT STORY) #𝑾𝒉𝒊𝒔𝒑𝒆𝒓 𝒔𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒔 1 ~𝑨𝒃𝒉𝒊𝒎𝒂𝒂𝒏 𝑺𝒊𝒏𝒈𝒉 𝑺𝒊𝒔𝒐𝒅𝒊𝒂 -19 - 30 age (at the start of the story) -6'2 height -sunshine ~𝑲𝒂𝒗𝒚𝒂 𝑹𝒂𝒋𝒗𝒂𝒏𝒔𝒉 -18-29 age - 5'2 height -ambivert . .

You Are My Destiny by catgotlucky

"Do you believe in destiny?" I asked him. He turned his head to me and showed a complex expression. "Why ask all of a sudden?" He asked back then slowly encircled his arms on my waist, and hugged me tight. I shrugged, "Nothing. I just feel like everything's going too smoothly. I'm afraid it's too good to be true." "It's simply because you're amazing. The things you have right now, you deserve them." He said in a serious tone. I smiled. "Don't laugh at me, but... I believe you're my destiny." He didn't talk for a few seconds. I got a little worried and planned to break the hug to look at him, but he tightened his arms. "I will make you happy until my last breath." He said in a low voice, with a hint of an indescribable emotion.
