The Earth is finally dying. Humans have been doing wrong time and time again, failing to understand their mistakes. Eventually, history closes in on itself. Humans, now selfish and arrogant, fail to understand the importance of history and nature. Benji is a walking contradiction. He empathizes, but embodies selfish behaviour. One day, his entire life changes with a selfless, yet simple action. Little does he know, this could give him just what he needed all along. Maybe with his story, humans can also understand the wrongdoings of their actions. Maybe we can learn how to heal ourselves and the world.

this story was a narative essay that was assigned in my english class. it ends abruptly and some parts are patchy because i tried to finish it within the deadline. I hope you enjoy! If it surpasses enough views, i'll probably start working on making it longer, and fixing parts of the story. This story is also very short too! i hope that i'll be able to add more sci-fi-y elements to it soon

The Balcony Bond
"In a city of eight million people, why does the air only feel still on a six-foot strip of concrete?" For Lin Yi, the balcony is an escape. For Zhang Hao, it's a vantage point. They started as silhouettes in the dark-sharing nothing but the glow of the streetlights and a mutual need for silence. They aren't star-crossed lovers; they are just two people exhausted by the noise of the world, finding a rare kind of peace in each other's presence. What starts as a simple nod across the railing evolves into a steady, unspoken partnership. No pressure to be anyone else, no romantic expectations-just the quiet comfort of a neighbor who understands the weight of the city. The Balcony Bond is a tribute to the people who walk alongside us in the dark, proving that sometimes, a platonic connection is the strongest foundation we have.Complete

Global changes have occurred, the world has turned into a game, and strange monsters are raging all over the world. To become stronger and to resist disasters. Everyone is changing classes and moving up their ranks like crazy. Some people become wizards in their first transformation, while others become professional thunder warriors in their second transformation. But Ling Zhan did the opposite.
