Growing Pains
In the day-to-day trenches of high school, it is almost the default-setting to believe we are the main character of our own coming-of-age story. This is not wrong. It's just ours isn't the only story there is. The jocks, the nerds, the cheerleaders, the losers, the stoners, the fangirls, the skaters. Everyone's the realest most important person in existence, all of them, at the same time, first-person narrators to their own stories, stumbling into each other's plot lines, defying the status-quo, catalysts to ups and downs. A deconstruction of all the high school tropes and cliches written over the years, a deep-dive into the psyche of students trying to finish high school while going through irrevocable self-discovery, the most improbable of connections, and the insufferable pains of growing up.Complete

"The Tower Of Babel..."
They called him "Tower". Probably because of his height. At 5'11, he was taller than most Asians in my country. He was built like a brickhouse, with muscles where either fat or loose skin should be. Most of all... he was handsome. Quite the combination to render women, and gays like me, in an utter state of flushed confusion. Let me take you on a joyride around an unheard of country where the beaches are either white, pink, or gray. Where we have underground rivers that have an altar at the center of a hidden cave. Where the Summer Capital of said country sits 1,500 meters above sea level and is covered by Pine Trees and fog, as I tell you of a love that was neither expected nor welcomed. Oh, sorry where are my manners? My name is "Babel"... and this is my story.Complete
